Week 1: Puka blew up on waivers
Week 2: Puka blew up on my bench, wasn't sure if I could trust him after one week of data
Week 3: ??
Calling it now, he puts up a dud in my lineup.
Swap out Purdy for a healthy Jimmy G or Baker Mayfield and the Niners are in the same place.
Purdy makes for a terrific story, but he's not "carrying" the team to the playoffs.
Stop.
"Since you just lost Burrow I assume you'll be interested in QB5 on the year Sam Howell for a king's ransom. Hit me up."
Home dynasty leagues just hit different.
I'm 3-4 in many leagues and still consider myself a contender due to total points or bad beats.
Anyone else feeling this way through 7 weeks of the 2023 season?
Women who want to be mothers are awesome and should be cherished.
Women who don't want to be mothers are also awesome and should also be cherished.
I don't get why this is so hard.
Reminder for podcasters:
Repeat the name of who you're talking about FREQUENTLY.
Say the name every OTHER time.
"Williams did this, he did that. WILLIAMS is also good at this, he's good at that. WILLIAMS struggles at this, and sometimes at that."
Please. I beg of you.
List of RBs that I think can finish as *THE RB1* in fantasy for 2022 (in no particular order):
CMC
Taylor
Henry
Barkley
Cook
Kamara
Akers
Dobbins
Swift
Harris
End of list.
Discuss.
Butker: Women should stay at home and raise a family
Me: I don't necessarily agree, I think that's whack
Internet trolls: You're fat, ugly, and gay
I love it here hahaha
Wanna have your mind blown?
Zeke is currently RB7 in PPR scoring.
Based on what you read on here you think he'd be RB50 or something.
Ironically, Derrick Henry is still RB8.
Reminder: these are YOUR fantasy teams, not mine or any other analyst you talk to about them. If you ask any of us for advice, we're going to give it, but ultimately it's YOUR team, do what YOU want, and then live with the consequences YOURself.
@CrazyBillsFan
I can tell you that while Burrow was warming up, the Bills defense was also on the field getting ready to play.
Everyone was in shock and had no clue what to do, so maybe don't be that guy?
My grandma passed away yesterday.
It wasn't sudden, but it still sucks.
These two songs played back to back this morning:
"It's hard to say it, time to say it
Goodbye, goodbye"
"You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo"
RIP Shirley😥
I know it can be tough to spend months and months playing fantasy football only to lose by 10 on a weird fluky week.
But isn't that also the reason we play this?
If it was all predictable it'd be so boring. The variability is what makes it enjoyable. Losing makes winning fun.
I'm getting my ass kicked in my "
#1
" league...
I might win more than half of my matchups in total, but losing in that single league makes the entire week a loss.
Anyone else in 5+ leagues feel this way?
@DaveKluge_FF
@DNewtonespn
In terms of an NFL trade, trading away CMC for Watson feels almost equal, maybe add a first to the CMC side.
The fact that they'd be willing to give up 3 firsts on top of CMC just seems bonkers to me.
Would definitely reset the market though. Yowsa.
Ready for a fun one? I decided to dig into the CEH hype and I came out feeling even worse about his situation than I did when I started.
I seriously think that drafting Clyde Edwards-Helaire could ruin your dynasty team.
@PFNDynasty
Just finished Game of Thrones, and I don't see why everyone was so up in arms about the finale. Maybe it's because I watched it all in a month or so, but I thought they did a fine job of tying it all together.

My boss at work after hearing that I like fantasy football: "Oh yeah? I have a friend who's in leagues with crazy scoring and where you don't even stop playing year to year, you basically manage the franchise forever. He's crazy."
Me: "Yep, that's me too."
Boss: "Oh."
I think the consensus top 7 in SF rookie drafts is set:
Bijan
A Rich
Bryce
Stroud
Gibbs
JSN
Addison
It's a tier break after that.
Who else deserves to be in that top 7?
@NPowellFF
Every time I see people making requests for MFL to look or function better, I want to tell them that Sleeper has looked better for 3 years and is free.
A really risky redraft team could start:
1. Zeke
2. Gurley
3. Gordon
4. A Brown
5. AJ Green
6. Michel
7. Drake
8. Kirk
9. Watkins
10. DeSean Jackson
11. Vance
12. Dak
And that team could be unstoppable if everyone plays 12+ games. Might be worth a try, IMO.
Always such an honor to be in this massive tournament that brings the community together like nothing else.
Thank you, Scott. It's seriously appreciated.

My last 24 hours:
Damn, Carson is out, I guess I can start Crowder in my flex.
Damn Ridley is out, I guess I can move Crowder to my WR3 and start Gronk in my flex.
Damn, Gronk is out, I guess I can start Conner in my flex.
Damn, Edmonds may be out...Finally some good news!
Is anyone talking about how Zeke got COVID over the summer and now seems to have lost a step? Cam Newton looks different too.
Myles Garrett might not be the only one struggling with after-effects here...
Do you ever send a trade offer and immediately regret it and get anxious about them accepting it only to have them decline it the next day and allow you to finally relax?
Yeah, me neither...
Fantasy Twitter: "OBJ is done. Who on Earth would want that guy? Drop him like he's hot."
Also Fantasy Twitter: "If ____ signs OBJ he could be a WR2 again! Go grab him right MEOW!"
Instead of the term "gun control" I'm going to use "gun responsibility."
No one wants to be controlled. The phrase itself is divisive and antagonistic. It helps no one.
I am in favor of gun responsibility laws. I would hope that most safe and law-abiding gun owners are too.
What is your dream job within the fantasy/sports industry?
Speak it into existence and let's see if we can help connect people to make some dreams come true!

Canton live draft is starting! I'll try to post my picks as I make them here but this could be tricky with the stickers, picking on Sleeper, and drinking beers when possible.
Let's do it!
Sonny Weaver Jr. sent:
2014 2.07
2015 2nd
2016 2nd
Browns received:
2014 1.01 (Browns used to select LB Vontae Mack)
PR David Putney
Sonny straight fleeced the Seahawks in the end.
Unconventional opinion:
Having all of your guys on bye this week is a blessing, not a curse. You get a full roster for the rest of the season.
It's all about how you look at things.
I'm benching Tee Higgins in one non-PPR league because I'm starting Justin Jefferson, AJ Brown, Mike Williams, and Micheal Pittman over him.
Is this a bad plan or a great plan?

Not a great look here, Jenna.
