Yeah, these gifs are overused, but it works...     Me all offseason:     And then by the end of week 1:

good god this sounds like a boring league. "Let's come up with a set of rules to restrict managers' ability to modify their teams, engage with the league, and react to changes in player availability d

I hate the randomness and lucky bull*****! I do like that we have a vent and rant thread. I should quit this game since I don't take the bad events so well. I love the pre season study too much though. When the games start that's when I get angry.

Honestly, I think the reason I haven't quit playing fantasy football is this  vent and rant thread lol..before I found this, it truly felt that no one could have as bad luck as me when it comes to this game. I've said it before, my bad beats are legendary in our league and have nicknames. This thread and seeing how others have had the same bs luck and the such helps with the frustration a bit in the point that I can tell myself "it's not just me". It's like a support group hahaha

Well I had Lamar Miller get me 0 and my opponent got 22 from his kicker...seems about right. Trying not to throw my phone against a wall right now as a type this...unreal.

 

Same, and my opponent has Gurley, Lindsay, and Chubb left to play. Uggghh. I have my share of weapons, but not liking my chances.

I think what has pissed me off the most happened in my low dollar office league. I lost in the first round of the playoffs by 5 points to the guy who was allowed to trade Aaron Rogers for Saquon Barkley. The team he got Barkley from was 2-8, hadn't changed his lineup in 5 games and admitted to the commissioner that he had given up and was basically giving his players away. We needed 6 veto votes and only received 5. The Commish should have just overturned the trade but didn't. I'm now seen as the bad guy because I'm still pissed this was allowed. The problem is these idiots still think Aaron Rogers is the dominant Rogers of the past so they didn't think the trade wasn't that bad. Also, the former Barkley owner didn't even put Rogers in his lineup after the trade nor did he replace Barkley in his lineup and just happened to be playing the new Barkley owner that week. The guy who was cruising to the playoffs but was knocked out of contention by the guy with Barkley wasn't even mad about this. 

 

I feel like I'm in the fricking twilight zone!!!

So Kittle and Amari put up like 400 yards receiving and like 80 tds against me last week.

 

This week starting off the same with Nuk dropping 170 and 2.  I wholly expect Kenny G and JuJu to throw down another 500 receiving yards on me.

Playing my league nemesis in the semis, he didn't play Mike Williams all year and switched him in this week last minute he also had Hopkins go off. Down 58.5 points before my guys even touched a ball. I got Chubb going tonight ..Need at least a 20 pointer to feel like i got some hope.

Trade Vetos are dumb.  Either its collusion or its not.  Don't play in that league next year.

That's exactly what I said. At this point in the season half of the teams were out of it and didn't care.

Trade vetos aren’t dumb. What’s dumb is the people that didn’t veto the trade. There wasn’t collusion there. The guy that traded away Barkley just didn’t give a f---. 

 

Moral of story. Don’t waste your time playing in leagues where you don’t know the level of competition. Or at least in ones where money is involved.

Highest scoring team with 11-2 record and i have played three players already that scored 4, 4 and 5. 

 

One and done :)

I Feel you bro ...

 

My team was a juggernaute with Gordon, Sanders, Odell, Lindsay, Kelce, etc.

 

3 players played and fortunatly I managed to take JJ but 25 points with Lindsay, Kelce and JJ does not feel good. And oh my replacement are Corey David and Dante Pettis (even considering Curtis Samuel).

 

Fantasy can be cruel.

Three games played so far. 

The six RBs 

 

Justin Jackson 18 pts

Damien Williams 27.3 pts

 

Lamar Miller 0.8 pts

Elijah McGuire 12.6 pts

 

Nick Chubb 10 pts

Phillip Lindsey 6.4 pts 

 

The three that you have to assume everybody owns & played scored the fewest. 

The three wild cards were the winners. 

Just doesn’t add up. 

 

I own two of those guys on two different teams. I own the two lowest.

LOL, to add fuel to fire of having Damien Williams and Justin Jackson on my bench, my oppenent has Fairbain (22 points from a KICKER) and Hopkins. To put it in perspective, my combo of Tyreek Hill, Philip Lindsay and Harrison Butker have not added up to 22 points combined. 

 

See ya next year. (Maybe)
