  • #2
    Crap is what many of my teams have at running back after last week's injuries.

      This year has definitely been rough on injuries.
      Bob- I'm not exactly sure it would ROCK as you say it Byron.. it may be cool, by typical text book descriptions. Your opinion of this is shallow and poorly constructed, but allow me to re-craft your initial thought into something tangable.

          Odell Beckham gone for the year with a broken ankle. Already headed for surgery.

            Giants first to go from 11-5 to 0-5 (I assume)

            they were more mediocre than terrible, really, but without Beckham or any enthusiasm - they may be drafting their next franchise QB in the top 5 come May

            0-5 - Giants, 49ers, Browns
            1-4 - Chargers
            1-3 - Bears

            3-2 - Jets (I'm saying there's a chance)
            finished 10th in this 37th yr in 11-team-only NL 5x5
            own picks 1, 2, 5, 6, 9 in April 2022 1st-rd farmhand draft

                Which was only the first major injury of the game.

                Without Watt, the Chiefs hang 42 points on the Houston defense, though garbage in the 4th quarter accounts for a lot of that.

                Alex Smith is on pace for 4400 yards and 35 TD through five games. Who'da thunk it?

                Oh yeah. Kareem Hunt gets another 100 yard game.

                  Whitney Mercilus also tore his pectoral muscle and Chris Conley ruptured his achilles on that onside kick.

                    Well if you are lucky enough to own Brandon Marshall you get an open roster spot now.

                        BOOM! 5-0.

                        Computer drafted team that wasn't pre-ranked by myself. I have watched zero football so far this season. Proving that FF is pretty ridiculous. Who would put money on FF? It's a freaking crapshoot of the highest degree.

                          To clarify, your position is that Yahoo (or ESPN or whoever) experts generated what they thought was the optimal draft order, you let a computer execute that draft the way they said, and other people in your league who probably deviated are doing worse than what you're doing, which is following the experts directly and using their projections to decide who to play each week, and this is an indication that it's all randomness and luck?
                          In the best of times, our days are numbered, anyway. And it would be a crime against Nature for any generation to take the world crisis so solemnly that it put off enjoying those things for which we were presumably designed in the first place, and which the gravest statesmen and the hoarsest politicians hope to make available to all men in the end: I mean the opportunity to do good work, to fall in love, to enjoy friends, to sit under trees, to read, to hit a ball and bounce the baby.

                            So you are saying the experts are always right?

                              In the first 5 weeks, my four teams have three losses of less than one point between them.
