December 25, 20213 yr These playoffs are insane from a roster management stand point. Players on my team and my opponents team that have been in flux this week: mahomes (top 2 pass catchers on Covid list) Lamar jackson huntley Dalvin cook justin Fields ronald jones Justin jackson Gabriel davis kelce Sony michel elijah Mitchell/ Jeff Wilson jr freiermuth Taysom hill
December 25, 20213 yr Kelce is nonsymptomatic and vaccinated. Still on Covid IR. Cheetah goes in Covid protocol day after Kelce and has already been released. Totally not wanting to debate protocol or processes; but this shit doesn't make sense some times. Edited December 25, 20213 yr by slorch

I'm in the final 4 and it's carnage. I thought I was gonna get lucky and now Huntley and Lamar both out. FML It's Cam or Carr. I guess I'll bite the bullet and go with Carr. I can't bitch as every other team is dealing with serious bullshit too. Edit: and I got high points which paid a piddly 2k. We wanted the playoffs to matter and now with almost everything on the line covid has turned it into a total crapshoot. Edited December 25, 20213 yr by ChiTownDoc

December 25, 20213 yr wait. Y'all play in a league with S40k in the balance? Damn, we be slummin it in our league.
December 25, 20213 yr 3 minutes ago, slorch said: wait. Y'all play in a league with S40k in the balance? Damn, we be slummin it in our league. Yeah, 12 man 5k buy in. Like I said, keep it almost all riding on winning it all. But most years final 2 chop most of the pot then let 5k ride on that final. So really these semi's are for almost all the marbles. And it's a shitshow.
December 25, 20213 yr You say shit like that as if it's normal... LMAO. Awesome. That's a very nice vacation if you win your league. Edited December 25, 20213 yr by slorch

Tomorrow morning I have a bad feeling I'll wake up to even more carnage. And yes, it's a league of complete degenerates. I'm probably the least compulsive gambler, which is a problem since I can get fairly stupid myself. Here’s a 30k parlay that Marco actually hit. Was on some national broadcasts prior to the last game. He did hedge some but cleared a million even. Edited December 26, 20213 yr by ChiTownDoc Bet Slip
December 26, 20213 yr Opponent had Packer DST and Jonathon Taylor yesterday. Weathered the hottest player in football and Mayfield giving up INTs and sacks left and right. He has Ravens TQB( you get aggregate stats of all of a team's QBs that game) and Mark Andrews. The bloom may be off the rose on those big hitters too. Meanwhile, i have Chargers TQB and Keenan Allen stacked. Those, along with Kelce WERE my auto starts. I have Dawson Knox on the bench but Patriots DST is #1 vs TEs in the league. Then I a decent stable of RBs, but none of them really stand out: CEH- visions of KC depending upon the run game always tease me. Antonio Gibson( facing Dallas, also a game time decision with toe) Javante Williams- projecting well on multiple websites, but my gut is just, "Meh" on him, which means he'll go for 30pts. Sony Michel- would probably be a desperation start, but again, in that offense, he's always capable of multiple receptions. Gotta pick 2 of those, and I don't feel like any of them are bad choices, with exception of Gibson if he ends up DNP. Win today, and it's guaranteed 2.5 times your entry fee with the possibility of 6X. Winning sounds good!
December 26, 20213 yr (Non-PPR) I’m starting CEH, Ronald Jones, and Justin Jackson over Zeke and Sony Michel. Go big or go home.

December 26, 20213 yr Thinking of going with Antonio Brown over Chase today in my 10 team full PPR in the flex spot. My receivers are Adams (had a great game last night already) and Jefferson. I feel like AB is gonna get force fed today. Am I crazy?

I dropped him during the foot/Covid Shit and someone grabbed him off the waiver wire before I could.
December 26, 20213 yr I think you’re right and hope you started him. I dropped him during the foot/Covid Shit and someone grabbed him off the waiver wire before I could. I did. We shall see.
December 26, 20213 yr I did. We shall see. It’s my local game on Fox and he’s definitely the primary target
December 26, 20213 yr I’m over here sweating Ronald Jones… he takes himself out of the game and his replacement instantly peals off a 55 yard TD

December 26, 20213 yr I’m headed to the ‘ship! Same unless Waddle scores 41. Picked up Burrow as QB1 so that helped.
December 27, 20213 yr Absolute insanity. Was at 60% win probability then Diontae Johnson got that total bullshit TD (I have Najee, couldn’t be him). Ended up a total dog going into the night game. HS buddy and I grew up absolute die hard Dallas fans but swore them off years ago. Ended up randomly w CeeDee, Zeke, and Dallas D - they dropped so we drafted them based on best available except Dallas D, who we grabbed on waivers. Dallas D won it for us w the help from Zeke and to a lesser extent CeeDee. Gonna chop most of the final pot. Unreal.
December 27, 20213 yr Picked up Isiah Mackenzie and started him in my flex. Won my matchup for me. 16 man league and in the championship for the 3rd year in a row. Have no business being in it this year as the 8th seed. Beat the 1 seed who's been steamrolling everyone by .5 last week.
December 27, 20213 yr Only thing that stops me from going to the final is if Miami's D can put up 50. I am feeling pretty secure right now.
December 27, 20213 yr I’m up 44 and still have Kamara to play vs Waddle for him, so feeling pretty, pretty, pretty goodOnly issue now is how many of my players will sit out the championship. I’m guessing Mahomes will, possibly Cupp
December 27, 20213 yr I think it’s better to get crushed when getting knocked out. That way any alternate moves you could have made were moot. Chubb Mixon Dak + Dallas D T BOyd (WTF) team was clubbed like a baby seal
December 27, 20213 yr Starting AB was technically the right call, as he beat Chase by a whopping 0.6, but in the end it didn’t matter since I ran into the Burrow/Mixon buzzsaw. Also faced Zeke, Cupp, and Dallas D. I was 15 over projected, but this guy scored 38 over his and I lost by 19. Still have a small chance in another league. Up 14 facing Gesicki and Saints DST.

December 28, 20213 yr 25 so I made it to the finals. It is funny the two old dudes who work there asses off beat a bunch of college kids who live for sports.

December 29, 20213 yr I’ve gotten so lucky this year in 2/3 leagues. Won my two first round playoff matchups in nearly identical fashion, eeking out 3 & 5 point wins in the 80’s. Then last weekend both my teams blow up scoring 144 and 174. Mixon, AJ, Justin Jackson, Dak, Shultz, Michel… After Saturday I was irritated that I dropped the GB DST in both leagues for MIA & PHI. Then they both scored more. And it didn’t even matter since I won both matchups by 40+.
December 29, 20213 yr Solid win this week so Championship game for the second year in a row but need to win this time. Lamar Jackson not being on the field has made it a little tough but hopefully we starts this week. Thoughts on line up: 1 RB, 3 WRs and 1 Flex Zeke Elliott, Joe Mixon and D'Andre Swift Keenan Allen, Jaylen Waddle, Van Jefferson, KJ Osborne, Jakobi Meyers Current starters in bold but with the matchup should I risk Swift over Zeke? Jefferson has been pretty weak the past few weeks too... Osbourne over him?
December 29, 20213 yr I won my other matchup by one whole point. This is a shitty league with two week playoff matchups that ends on the final week of the season, but I usually do well in it so I have stayed. I am the underdog in this matchup but have nothing to lose. I was the 1 seed in another league and got blasted, so maybe I’ll have some of that luck now.

December 30, 20213 yr If Mitchell is 100% that’s the call KC’s D has been strong of late so I wouldn’t go there. Waddle and Penny both have high floors. I lean towards RB just for the higher floor.

January 1, 20223 yr Non PPR. Need 2 RBMixonSwift PollardSingletaryLooks like Lamar is still going to be out but I can’t risk Huntley over Burrow as QB. Im overthinking my lineup now.

January 2, 20223 yr Last Sunday for most of us to wake up, check weather reports, get the injury lists, and see who the fuck got Covid overnight.
January 2, 20223 yr Congrats to you lucky assholes who are in the ship. My Brady/Mahomes/Cook "WDIS at QB this week" juggernaut got knocked out in rd 1 because I started Brady and the effing Saints always find a way to screw me over but I would be in the titleship game if I'd played Mahomes. (Or if Brady had scored 8.6 instead of 6.9!) On 12/27/2021 at 11:37 AM, ChickenSandwich said: I think it’s better to get crushed when getting knocked out.

January 2, 20223 yr Looks like Lamar Jackson is out. If that's the case, do you start Huntley over Russell Wilson? Assume you are the underdog.
