Why the hell not?
Remembered to swap out Patterson exactly two minutes after the national anthem had started. WELP.

On the other hand, I got beaten like 140-67 last week so I think I'm past the point where one player makes the difference.

Let me clarify that I haven’t suffered a stroke and only looking to make reasonable trades. Not things like Agnew for Metcalf

lol it literally said in the comments that it wasn't a real trade. I was just saying I think you're making a good decision for your team, and to start trade talks going if there was someone on mine you liked.

Maybe that’s what happened when they offered me Keenan Allen and TJ Watt for Derrick Henry

That made me remember the draft where we were talking about dropping our keepers right before it started. I said if we could I'd happily drop CEH so I could grab Najee.

For funsies I plugged him in for CEH (or his replacement) each week, and was surprised to learn that I only would have picked up 55.2 total points, and only one more win.

Granted both of those numbers could well be the difference between regulation and not, but it wasn't quite as bad as I'd feared.

I don't know if it's a bug or something but my friends said they haven't been seeing my comments this season, only the final comments like "thanks for trading" when we finalized something.

It’s a bad strategy anyway. What’s even the point? It’s obviously much more likely they’re just going to decline the trade without reading anything and just think you’re too unreasonable to trade with in the future.

I mean, this may be true sometimes, but I would hope the literal #2 or 3 WR for literal WW trash wasn't taken as a serious trade offer.

However this player and I have already made a trade this year, so I don't think he thinks I'm unreasonable.

I was on my phone with no real way to message him, so I put it in the trade comments. Nbd

(I think there's only been two trades in this league total this year, and I've been part of both.)

Regarding this, is there a reason we use ESPN rather than Sleeper which allows DMs/chat?

Laziness, momentum, lack of urgency, wasn't around when the league started, historical info - pick your poison.

If we want we can address it in the offseason.

Was mostly curious because we used sleeper for the draft. I don’t know if anyone cares enough to switch.

Would love to switch to something where we can DM/chat. Makes trades too difficult to go through email like espn. I didn’t even see there were comments attached to the trade

i would much rather use ESPN, which all four of my other pay to play leagues use, than have to worry about logging into some totally different app/website, especially when there are both PMs on the forum and a message system on ESPN. if you don't have plat in tyool 2021 I will buy you a cert just so you have it

If someone can show me how to chat on the app it would be greatly appreciated. in the meantime Tier A if anyone would like to trade ahead of the deadline for a championship run or to stave off regulation I put the players I am willing to deal in a nice and convenient google doc to look at. Plenty of guys that can help you out https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wdjM69ag_l4EtSQe84tdGs50D6CIgSR0RGm_IYZVsdA/edit#gid=0

Yeah they’re mad at me too. In my keeper league I could have kept him for 8 out of a 460 salary cap (essentially a 17th round value). Fortunately I drafted him again, just at 95 this time so basically a 9th.

I realized it's gotten out of control. I realize I'm out of control.
I gotta say, the complete collapse of my team over the course of a week has been impressive. Hurts questionable, Dalvin dead, Swift dead, McKissic dead.

Anyone got a startable RB they'd like to trade? If you are looking forward to next year I can put Cook on the block. (Tier A, Hurts Immunity)

I survive and make the playoffs! Just 2 wins away from getting this tier B stank back off me and regaining my proper place as a middling/struggling tier A club for the.... 3rd time.

We'll, at least I made my money back, 4 out of my 5 wins were top of the week. My team just lacked consistency early on. And ran into hot teams at the wrong time.

Trade deadline is tomorrow at midnight. Let's make some moves.

I (Bombardment Society, Tier A.) would be open to moving AJ Brown (he's great but he's on IR so he doesn't help me right now, he's ranked very highly in dynasty rankings), Hunter Renfrow (great since Ruggs went down), or possibly an RB. taso @ tasog . com if you want to discuss.
