skyline Posted September 1, 2018 Report Posted September 1, 2018 I set it to 2rb 2wr and 1 flex (wr/rb/te). Though it should be noted that allowing qb in the flex spot is now a default option for new leagues. It's become pretty typical. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 1, 2018 Report Posted September 1, 2018 Wow, I’ve never seen that before. Just figure what’s the point when they only get 4 points for a TD and a single point for every 25 yards. Never know though. i think it’s a good move that will change the dynamic a little bit. Sounds like fun !!! Quote
skyline Posted September 1, 2018 Report Posted September 1, 2018 A mid to bottom tier QB will still get a heck of a lot more points than a 3rd string WR. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 1, 2018 Report Posted September 1, 2018 True as well. Interesting dynamic as well which would also impact draft strategies. Quote
skyline Posted September 1, 2018 Report Posted September 1, 2018 Woo! I'm ready to go ahead and accept the trophy if you all would rather not go through the pain and agony of loss. Quote
BengalszoneBilly Posted September 3, 2018 Report Posted September 3, 2018 I got a Yahoo grade of C+ on my auto draft. I have no clue who I got. I'll find out tomorrow at work. Clock in early, get paid for fantasy. Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 3, 2018 Report Posted September 3, 2018 Billy... I know Big Ben is your starting QB. i just couldn’t have that !! Quote

ArmyBengal Posted September 6, 2018 Report Posted September 6, 2018 My son is freaking out because LeVeon Bell hasn't reported and is asking me to trade Joe Mixon to him. DENIED !!! Anyone else looking to make a trade, my boy is in need of a RB apparently !!! Quote
skyline Posted September 6, 2018 Report Posted September 6, 2018 I have to question your parenting methods, Army. The fact that he would draft a Steeler in the first place tells us you haven't taught him well enough :P Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 6, 2018 Report Posted September 6, 2018 Question my parenting methods ?? Well let me tell you something.... Shit, who am I kidding ?? I question my methods daily it seems, but I sure do love being Dad !!! Another thing to consider in his drafting a Steeler is that he's a Texans fan through and through. His hatred of the Steelers does not rival our own. Talk to him about the other teams in his division or the Cowboys ?? Yeah, the flame of anger is strong with that one !!! At the age of 7, while in Indy to catch the Colts/Texans game, he was talking mess to the whole section. LOUDLY.... Wasn't sure I was going to make it out of there in one piece at one point. Hysterical. Love that dude !!! He gave me grief for passing on Amari Cooper when I didn't have a single WR and drafting Mixon. Now he begging me for a trade daily. He keeps sending me trade requests and I keep denying them. Yes, I'm enjoying this just a little. Hope poking fun at a now 12 year old doesn't come back in karma... Quote
skyline Posted September 6, 2018 Report Posted September 6, 2018 Yeah, how'd that Texans thing happen, anyway? Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 6, 2018 Report Posted September 6, 2018 He was born in San Antonio while I was still in the military on a teaching assignment at the Army Department of Combat Medical Training. When he was old enough to think about being from Texas, he made the switch to being a Texans fan. I always thought it was cool that he followed another team and have embraced it with him. The Texans are now my #2 because of him. I follow them quite closely these days. We take trips to Indy once a year (coming up in 3 weeks) and down to Houston as well. 1 Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 10, 2018 Report Posted September 10, 2018 Talk about laying a week 1 egg !!! First Fournette leaves in the 2nd quarter and doesn't return. Then my WR's don't do a damn thing worth mentioning. Then to put the nail in the coffin, my defense scores a massive -3 points. Oh well, there's always next week !!! Quote

Scottishbengal Posted September 11, 2018 Report Posted September 11, 2018 I got off to a W - well happy with that , smacking the Rads right in the Nads !! Now onto the Ranting Rodent - gonna make that sucka scream !!! Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 11, 2018 Report Posted September 11, 2018 Hoosier loses to the only team that scored more points than his team did. Bad luck right there. Billy starts off the season with a less than 2 point win, but a "W" nonetheless !!! Many others did well in week one, to include my son, but I will have to go back to the drawing board. Quote

ArmyBengal Posted September 11, 2018 Report Posted September 11, 2018 My son is freaking out too. He can't believe he ended up winning without LeVeon Bell in the lineup. Nice wins for sure !!! Quote

BengalszoneBilly Posted September 15, 2018 Report Posted September 15, 2018 Thanks to A.J. Green's 24.90 points, Billy's Team is out to a big lead! Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 16, 2018 Report Posted September 16, 2018 2nd week of the season, 2nd starter is out with an injury. Ugh !!! Quote
ArmyBengal Posted September 17, 2018 Report Posted September 17, 2018 I'm soon to be 0-2 and the season will begin to circle the drain if I can't get some of these guys healthy sooner rather than later. I was optimistic heading into it, but it hasn't quite worked out that way through the first couple of weeks. Such is fantasy football life !!! Quote
skyline Posted September 17, 2018 Report Posted September 17, 2018 Your team is still better than my team. David Johnson at #3 has been a huge bust so far. It's not that he's been bad, but moreso that the Cardinals are TERRIBLE. Quote
