Anyone else feeling that Cam's game has kinda been figured out? I also think he's playing hurt beyond the concussions which will limit his run game point scoring potential.

I'm just uneasy about his health and feel like cutting bait on him in one of my leagues.

Yeah veto it. Only way it could be more obvious would be a letter stating it's collusion signed by both owners.

This is a rare moment in fantasy. A trade worth vetoing.

Can you talk to the guy that gave away Zeke and have him explain the trade, how it makes his team better? If the guy can't explain it then I would veto it.

They don't know each other IRL. Team A is ran by 2 friends, 1 works in my office and basically paid the entry fee and his friend runs the team. Team B is a nice guy but apparently doesn't know poo poo and got taken advantage of.

The Team A guy is being a tremendous jerkoff all afternoon now, it's quite a show of how cunty an adult man can be when something doesn't go their way.

To sign them is my real test

And people wonder why I only play with goons or in public leagues. I gave up commissionership of my 7 year old keeper league last year and outright quit that league and another big money league with friends/acquaintances this year because I can't stand adults acting like giant :qq: babbies :qq: over a goddamn game


That money league apparently had a blow up and one of my really good friend who runs the league had to step down as commissioner because he noticed that one of the guys in the league didn't set him lineup and sent him a friendly reminder and he ended up blowing out a team near the top of the standings and he bitched and moaned for days about how it was collusion and unfair and he was targeted specifically. It was a pretty spectacular blow up, I wish I could share the texts with you guys

Thinking about offering Fitzgerald for Booker, thoughts? Too much or too little?

I have Julio, Alshon, Ty Montgomery, Crabtree, and Moncrief at WR.

RBs are Jizz Rodgers, Jstew, Chris Thompson, Crowell, Coleman, and T West.

We start 2 RB 2 WR 1 W/T, so basically 3 WRs

I watched some highlights of last nights game on YouTube. I noticed on a run to the outside in the 2nd half that he tried to make a cut against two defenders and he looked a little gimpy. It wasnt as nifty as he usually looks. I am going to rewatch gamepass and take a closer look. If he has turf toe its going to be tough for him because his game relies so much on making cuts.

Do I give up on Charles at this point and hope for the best from someone else? His return to playing, let alone playing effectively, is looking doubtful for the rest of the season.

There aren't any "good" alternate options exactly, but a few points is marginally better than no points.

I am dealing with a related situation. We have a bum manager in our league who refuses to set his lineup. Starting players on Byes and on the IR. I have to communicate with the commissioner weekly regarding this team and I've posted many a note regarding the situation.

I don't want anyone being given any advantage for free, even myself. It's just not fun that way for me. So, last week when I was playing said manager and he had a guy in the IR in his lineup, I raised a stink and made sure he was rolling out a full and complete roster. I may be annoying to some of the managers in the league(no ones ever said anything though) but I am a person of integrity.

This is a 17 year old league with a majority of managers involved from the beginning. This troublesome manager is new and definitely won't be back next year.

Even in the league where I'm 2-5 and have pretty much given up, I'm still putting out the best lineup I can and even working the wire a tiny bit. There's no excuse for joining a league and then ignoring it, it doesn't take very long to check injuries and available players.

Nobody in the league has complained. This is a dynasty money league; having very clear and comprehensive rules means not having lovely drama and fights and stuff. And we hashed out the rules before the startup draft in 2015, as a group, so everyone had a chance to know and agree to them before we got going.

I mean, I could have flattened the structure of the rules numbering, of course, but using deep trees of nested rules shows a hierarchy and doesn't really hurt anything.
