[VashTheStampede]

I tried to pick a team with a high floor but low ceiling.

Basically I'm gonna need everyone to underperform against me.

I'd appreciate that.

 

[Tubby23]

I can help you there, my team will inevitably let me down

[Tubby23]

@Cole might score 200 this week at this rate

 

[Spiner202]

I suck at this. Tubby has Hurts lighting it up. In my other league, my opponent has Devonta Smith crushing it, while I have AJ Brown doing nothing.

 

[TD]

Yeah fuck AJ Brown!
lol

 

[VashTheStampede]

Can't relate

 

[Spiner202]

Of course AJ Brown scores a TD on a play called back for holding

I'm not even watching and now I'm mad.

Damn you to hell Fantasy Football.

 

[Tubby23]

Fantasy sports you're on top of the world when it's good, in the bath with a toaster when it's bad

 

[Tubby23]

I'm not even watching and now I'm mad.

Damn you to hell Fantasy Football.

Swift has 20.2 on your bench

 

[TD]

Swift has 20.2 on your bench

Everyone else:

 

[VashTheStampede]

And there's a TD for him...

 

[TD]

Who's him!?

HIM BETTER BE AJ BROWN.

 

[Tubby23]

He's been immense

 

[VashTheStampede]

Swift

 

[Tubby23]

Who's him!?

HIM BETTER BE AJ BROWN.

 

[VashTheStampede]

Jesus christ here's our Aaron Rodgers update

 

[TD]

You know who's an asshole?

Whoever runs the ESPN Fantasy app push notifications.

I had an idea today to move Ridley to WR over Brown cause he sucked last week and put Swift in at flex because to be honest I'm not sure what I'm doing.

Then I get a push notification saying Brown and Smith should have huge games from an expert who knows what he's doing.

Guess who was right?

Moral of the story: Follow the guy who doesn't know what he's doing. The same guy who drafted a kicker before a damn quarterback.

 

[TD]

Me to ESPN:

...But yeah if anything it's a stark reminder that you should just follow your gut. lol

 

[Tubby23]

Jesus christ here's our Aaron Rodgers update

What was the update?

 

[VashTheStampede]

He hurt still

 

[Webster]

in the bath with a toaster when it's bad

NY Jets fans after Aaron Rodgers tore his Achilles....

 

[Cole]

@Cole might score 200 this week at this rate

I told you guys Im a football expert.

 

[The Eye in the Sky!]

More like Jalen Hurts'n my chances by not throwing to AJ Brown this year in another league I'm in.

I'm facing Justin Jefferson this week so I'm in danger.

 

[VashTheStampede]

Think I'm gonna start changing my team name every week and steal some Alu juju

 

[TD]

I'll go against my usual theory and draft a Raider for the first time ever because it feels like value.

Josh Jacobs rushes for -2 yards on 9 attempts.

 

[TD]

And now Calvin Ridley is hurt because he ran into the post.

 

[VashTheStampede]

If anyone has extra running backs I seem to have extra wide receivers...

 

[TD]

It makes me feel better that even if I did start Swift I was still going to lose.

If anyone has extra running backs I seem to have extra wide receivers...

Good running backs feel like a rarity now.

 

[A Vaguely Ambiguous Username]

It would be nice if you all would stop scoring stupid amounts of points against me.

 

[Tubby23]

If I was a head coach I think the CEO would be meeting with me this week to give me a final performance warning

 

[TD]

Is your name Josh McDaniels?

please say yes

 

[Tubby23]

YES

 

[VashTheStampede]

 

[The Eye in the Sky!]

Take that whipping Alu!

 

[TD]

 

[A Vaguely Ambiguous Username]

Take that whipping Alu!

 

[Tubby23]

Fuck you ESPN and everyone involved in it.... list Cooper as Questionable and then likely Out so I use OBJ.

 

[TD]

ESPN cannot be trusted

 

[Tubby23]

No, that said I also went to Twitter and Yahoo who were saying the same. So basically fuck all reporters

 

[TD]

Ah the pain of injury news for a MNF game.

 

[Tubby23]

Week 2 Results:

Wins for:
@Spiner202
@The Eye in the Sky!
@Cole
@Jon
@VashTheStampede

Standings:

 

[A Vaguely Ambiguous Username]

I'm 0-2 just like the Patriots!

 

[TD]

I was like "wow the standings actually make sense with PF!"...

...and then I saw Alu.

 

[VashTheStampede]

I don't suck!

 

[Cole]

ez dubs. I'm so smart

 

[VashTheStampede]

And thus is the duality of the two undefeated teams

 

[Jon]

Might I ask how you're linking those stats here?
