Who you going with this week? Been doing some research this am and I'm leaning with.... Deshawn Watson vs. the Ravens Miles Sanders vs. Bears Keenan Allen vs. Titans Pickings are slim at WR now. Everyone is a hit and miss fantasy guy each week. I could change to Michael Pittman, but he's really been disappointing this year. Indy's line might be worse than the Bears. I'm guessing Matt Ryan wished he retired. I could go with Devanta Smith at WR, but I still want to stay away from teammates in the same line up. I still have quite a few RB options if I decided to put Smith in there vs. the Bears. Stevenson, A. Jones, Pollard, Elliott, Montgomery to name a few. If this were a contest that rewarded you for having a top line up, I'd worry about uncorrelated plays like RB-WR on the same team. But this is the exact opposite. I wouldn't go out of my way to do it, but I'd actually be looking for opportunities to do RB-WR on the same team. It makes it more likely for you to land in the middle of the remaining entries, which is a win. Sanders-Devanta seems like a great play to me. -
He fell from a great height. If that isn't enough, a security guard (from another country) ALSO fell from a great height, but he didn't die... EDIT: Looks like the reporter's cause of death hasn't been declared yet, I just misread an article.

Zactly. This is the job of managers for countries with talent. Could he have screwed it up any harder, within reason?

I drafted David Njoku to start the season and dropped him after 2 or 3 weeks of basically nothing. Since then it's been a revolving door of terrible numbers while Njoku has actually been pretty good. Pitts owner who had a great stable of RB and tried like hell to pull off a Kelce trade but couldn't. Every week is an adventure now. Only good thing is next week still doesn't matter for me. Then in week 16 it starts to count. I'm in three season-long leagues, and got a bye in all three. One of them is just largely pythag luck, tho. A Kupp, Chase, Pitts, Bateman, CEH start to the draft doesn't seem league-winning, at this point.

In related news, my alma mater is in the Div 2 National Championship game next weekend. When I first got there, the football team was a joke, with all of the cheers revolving around losing being ok. By my senior year, they were qualifying for the playoffs, and recent years had them making it to the semis occasionally. It will test my pirating resources to see if I can find a stream next week.

Seems sudden for bronchitis? Really weird story either way.

Sports are still pretty cool, part from the Cubs, of course.

If you want to snag a TE and hope they have a role when week 16 and 17 comes around, I think Trey McBride makes sense. He's getting all the snaps at TE, and Kyler has tended to favor targetting TEs. He just hasn't been getting the targets thus far since Ertz went down. I think it makes more sense holding a guy like him (or Okonkwo, etc) than White, whom you could probably grab anyways if Hurtz gets hurt. I have two TE, currently Geisicki and Knox. They play two bad Ds in GB and Chicago week 16. So I'm okay with them for now, but watching like 6 others. Higbee is the big one who I had for a while and has gotten quite a few targets and should have a decent matchup for playoffs. Theres a half dozen guys I flagged to watch for, but I think I'll take my second choice at TE over a second choice on the waiver wire at QB if Hurts went down. It's gonna be a crap shoot no matter what at TE. I may drop Moore after this week for a 3rd TE. He's starting in flex due to byes this week, and he's been kind of a deep/sleeper keeper hold for me all yeat, but in all likliehood not a keeper option I'll use next year. And he's like WR5 for me. Ah, ok. I'm in a pretty competative 14 team league. I'm somehow in first, and Moreau and McBride are the TEs I have rostered...

General Baseball Chit-Chat Thread

Weah played pretty well overall, but in the 55 minutes of play that Gio had this World Cup, he created a LOT of chances. You and I didn't watch the same games.
-
Honestly, since Gregg isn't going to play anyone up top that isn't a "Striker" on the official roster, there's nowhere to put him. The 11 is built around MMA, you're not going to take off Pulisic, and Weah has been really dangerous over and over. Now, when we see our midfield and/or Weah get tired, we should see subs earlier, and they should be Reyna and Aaronson - Aaronson first if we have a lead, Reyna if we are tied or behind. I'd prefer to give the ball to the guy who starts for Dortmund and dribbles like Maradona. Don't care about position. It's the coach's job to make it happen.
-
Zimmerman and Ferreira in the starting 9 but no Gio. Why can't we have good things?
-
Holy horsefeathers I forgot about the BS yellow. That THAT ref gave him a yellow on that is just infuriating.

Sargent is fine. If anything, that was a knee injury.

I'm used to the exaggerated Iranian injury routines from USA-Iran wrestling matches. The tradition is strong there.

Got damn Musah on the ball is just sick.
