[Chef99]

Send 1.9, 2.14, and Greg Dulcich to Chef,
Receive Tajae Spears

You really should announce a trade like this with more fanfare.

Do I have to tell you everything??

Whatever. I love Spears, but nice trade, bro.

Things are puzzling right now, especially in this league. What the hell, I'm havin' a good time messin' with everyone's expectations.

I really think that has become my calling.

Haha, crap, I copied, pasted and edited, on the previous page, but then when I noticed we moved ahead a page, I simply pasted...no edit..doh!

 

[Robotech]

Any other league and that's who I would've taken at 4.

I understand your reasoning. I like that our league is very old school with the settings. You can find a PPR/half PPR league anywhere. You can find superflex anywhere. It's harder to find a good group of guys to play good old single QB with no PPR. I can't even call our scoring standard anymore because I feel like PPR is the the most common now.

If you had picked Odunze, I would have been very tempted to pick Brooks.

For sure.. it's funny, nowadays ppr is standard, and standard should probably be re named "non-ppr"

What sucks the most is that ppr scoring was created to offer balance in value between RB and WR back in the days where the rules weren't so ridiculously skewed towards passing the ball. PPR today is RIDICULOUSLY slanted towards WR's, and really should be getting re-corrected back the other way. But then you lose a ton of viable RB's with all the RBBC out there, you have to give those guys that boost to even make most of them roster worthy...ughhh

Gimme half point PPR, and escalator bonuses for carries anyday if we want to get real serious

QBs are the ones I see getting out of hand.

 

[Chef99]

The good ones anyways

Oh, wow. Didn't realize that.

Probably because I haven't participated in, like, 2 or 3 years.

 

[Chef99]

Or maybe it's a big somethin' somethin', depending upon your perspective.

Had some family drama then the wife and I went to dinner and my steak legit tried to kill me. I’ve never felt so helpless in my life. Couldn’t breathe and that shit was stuck. Freaked my wife out big time.
