Its a good day to own Matt Ryan, Julio Jones and Matt Bryant. It's a bad day to be going up against my wife, who started Antone Smith.
Slightly similar situation, in that I own Jones and Bryant, but the guy I'm trying to catch in the standings started Evans. I'm in good shape, but that didn't help

Up against Matty Ice in one league, Mike Evans in another, and both in a 3rd league. Fantasy football sure is fun.

Fffffuck the cupcake team who had already given up on the season decided to set their lineup this week. They'd had 4 players on bye until this morning. Was really looking forward to that easy win. :(

whats the point of even playing then? Why not just join a league where you are all 12 teams if you want to just feel like youve won something?

No Decepticon in history, and I say this with great surety, has been treated worse or more unfairly.
Hahaha looks like someone is getting all riled up for no reason. Calm down. I know the feeling Quiet Feet has. He just wanted his free win that other league mates got. Totally normal feeling to have.

Gee, I can't imagine why I would want a win against the lazy team who's been doling them out to everyone else all season.

Edit: /\/\/\ yeah, that.

That's a nice set of 11 dynasty points there, it would be a shame if 3 rings were to happen with it

Everyone else is getting a bye against the scrub lord owner and he doesn't. He's at a disadvantage compared to the rest of the league.

If you played in a league where at the start of the season every team but yours was spotted a win, I'm assuming you wouldn't be okay with that.

And this is precisely why every league should have a very firm rule about setting a lineup every week. To the point that if someone is starting IR/Bye/O players even once, there's a rule that a commissioner sets their lineup to maximize projected points, and then they get one week to shape up or they're replaced. If someone's going to be on vacation or whatever, they can set their lineup in advance, designate a proxy to do it, or ask to have their lineup set to the projected points, or whatever.

You don't tolerate an owner handing out random free wins, because that's grossly unfair to the opponents that they actually tried to beat.

Having listened to this week's "Eagle Eye in the Sky" podcast is making this PHI - NYG game a lot of fun to watch. They knew EXACTLY how they could be beaten by the Giants on both sides. Probably the smartest pod in my rotation right now - highly recommended.

He's a classic Vikings WR pick, a drop factory with measurables. Anyone who drafted him outside of dynasty is a rube
