You make a fair and hilarious point.

If anyone wants more transparency: our goon-founded fantasy football site has a discord that has a lot of people who want to be in more cool leagues like this one but are too busy to find them. If a SA league needs someone I do a round of invites to the goons in the discord, then do a second round to the non-goons and pick the people I have had the best experiences with. B_Sketchy is deffo top of the "actually a goon and reliable" list.

If any of you ever has a goon league that is dangerously close to having an odd number of teams, hit me up and I can ask around.

Wasn't really worried but that is good to know.

Thanks Yellow Dart! With that it looks like we're set for Sunday September 6th from 8:00-11:00. This was the most popular option with 8 votes. Jabro, Spacejung and Funkybottoms, I see you guys didn't vote for this, can you still make it?

Dammit, I un-voted the 6th before I saw your post. My other league chose the 6th just last night.

E: Going to see if I can get the other league moved to earlier in the day. Currently scheduled for 6 PM EST

lol, thought i was done and wandered off to make food the last few rounds, sorry about that. was it an algorithm or the commissioner that drafted me a backup kicker and defense?


also, is there a channel in the discord specific to this league? if not, can one be created?

Algorithm. The commish was pretty deep into whiskey and cokes at that point.:sweatdrop:

I do not like my team. Tried to get too cute a couple of times and ended up with players I didn't really want. Oh well, guess we'll see how it turns out!

Hey so wondering if anyone else is having this shared delusion: Another owner and I do not remember picking and have zero interest in our last two picks. Anyone else have guys on their team that don't make any sense that you don't remember picking?

I'm definitely not thinking there's anything weird, and it's probably just getting too drunk but... I get too drunk every draft and end up with guys that I don't think help my team but are at least on my lists. Here I drafted a second D, the colts. I have massive amounts of articles and such talking about fantasy football for the last 6 months and I never once mention the colts. I also have...Irv Smith as a backup TE?

Again, I obviously picked them in a drunken haze, but I'm just wondering if this is a unique thing that happened to other owners of this draft. Like Maybe ESPN's color scheme creates pick blindness in drunken people or something? All my other leagues are Yahoo, and while I've passed out at the end of all of them, I've still looked at my team the next day and said "yup, this team might suck in places, but these are all guys on my list."

My actaual theory is that ESPN bumps up a couple of those dudes in list price where we were all "Irv smith/Corradelle patterson for 1? He's listed at 4!"

It's cool that we both got garbage 2nd TEs for $1. We must have been shocked at the TE scarcity and jumped head first in to the garbage TE market.

Quiet Feet

THE HELL IS WITH THIS ASS!?





Pfft, my garbage 2nd TE was $2! :smug:

I don't remember drafting Gesicki or Jeudy, don't like the former and have no feelings about the latter. But this draft went odd fast for me because I got very few players I actually wanted before the draft but got some bargains on guys I had no opinions of or mixed feelings on. The only two of the bunch I was really looking into were Hurst and Ryan. Thinking with Sanu gone Hurst will get a lot of targets and Gage isn't the answer in the slot. Ryan is in the same position he is every year: tons of weapons, questionable run game, poo poo defense. They'll probably be throwing a lot again and I think it'll work out fine but something about the fact that this is my third year drafting him is making me anxious.

Edit: also Emmanuel Sanders. Saints did not have a real #2 WR last year and he could see a decent amount of work and is worth spending a buck or two on.

I haven't played on ESPN in a couple years and I don't remember this dealy existing. I know it doesn't actually mean much but I'm taking it as a good omen here on the first big day of games. Good luck, guys! But not too much :colbert:

Not that he would've necessarily grabbed him but the Jags replacment kicker scored 1 point more than Lambo... and then got injured. :rubshands:

Well COVID is loving fun and I had to try and do what I could. I mean, I could have offered you Chark, but I figured you'd rather have a player who isn't injured in an offer.

I used to be more reasonable about it but I had Dez one year and it drove me nuts when he did well. Especially if he scored a ton of points and my team lost anyway. Like why did I even endure that?

Oh I know - just annoying me to deal with the outbreak. I can slide by with Henry + RB4, but losing Henry just tanks me (and Juju TBF).

So if anyone wants to make an offer, I could use a RB. Not going to sell out for one week, but I'm open.
