In the bottom right there's a date selector thing, change it to 2014. Pretty sure that should fix it but I'm on my phone and I think that fixed it when I did that once

Dolphins linebacker Koa Misi apparently doesn't want to move to middle linebacker.

It's a week before the draft, but I'm not sure what the value of this as a pre-draft cloud of chaff would be. Seems more like an "lol dolphins" thing, with an added side benefit of them being put in a position where they just can't shuffle the guys who sucked last season around(even if Misi was the single good one).

Atlanta is switching to a base 3/4 defense in 2014 and they asked Osi to take a pay-cut because his usefulness and play time are decreased tremendously.

He told them no.

He's still on the team. But, I'm guessing they didn't even talk to him about playing OLB, because he's a "hand-in-the-dirt" rusher, and he has no idea how to beat the edge from a standing position. :jerkbag:

I'm just gonna leave this here.

Yes. If Manziel puts up 48 and his defense gives up 49, he's a choke artist just like Romo. I'm sure there's a dedicated team of bloggers working on a "Tony Homo"-like nickname for him as we speak.

Hopefully it all ends with Tony on a better team.

Depends on if he throws the back breaking INT late in the 4th driving for the go ahead score or not.

That's "I'd gladly deal with x if you paid me $yM a year," where x = concussions, depression, crippling disability, etc.

I talked so much poo poo during (and after I won) my league. It is fun to compete but I hated not being able to enjoy the games for what they were.

Don't think I'll be doing FF ever again.

This. I have been to a bar where a loud group of guys were cheering for their fantasy players. Including a guy wearing a Broncos jersey and cheering against them for one of his players.
