Now that I’m in 1st place, I’m going to pick up, then immediately drop every single player that I can for the remainder of the year. Any surprise outs or injuries, and you better hope that you have a good bench option, or you’re looking at the 7th receiving option for the Jaguars to try to pull you a point.

This gives me the best competitive advantage. I just thought that it would be frowned upon.

If you wanna win, make your team better and win. If you wanna be a dick, add and drop players all week so no one else can get at them.

I wish Tecmo would keep my name out of whatever he and some others are babbling on about transaction moves.  Here I tried to help Tecmo get in the Bengals Baseball League twice, and both times caught hell from that sites league manager and someone also on this football site and the baseball site.  When it came up the Baseball League acted like it needed players, I mentioned Tecmo is a good guy and Bengals Fan.  But I caught hell for trying to help Tecmo get in.  Now I catch hell from Tecmo over a conversation on transactions that I'm not even involved in.  So leave me out of it.   I'm not involved in this transaction talk the last few days. 

Anyway, good games Bob Jones and Hollodero.  I hit you with over 100 points both weeks, but you guys just scored more.  I see Poppy's is slated to put up over 100 on me this week.  Well, it's a good, tough league.  I'll try to put up 100 again and give him a game.  No Quit in Football. 

Go Bengals against a tough Tennessee team led by Henry and often a good D.  Also Michigan at Ohio State, both undefeated.  No shortage of good football Thanksgiving Weekend.

I mean, at least keep McCoy on your roster for a couple days so you look more like a small, skinny dick rather than add/drop and look like a raging veiny monster ****.

He added him then went and looked for Garoppollo when he realized Garoppollo was on the his opponents roster he dropped McCoy. 

Roster Churning is pretty hard to do when you have to hold players for 24 hours so I think were safe on that front.

CC has Murray, and if he's out and doesn't have JimmyG, he needs Colt to compete.

(Not that I have a problem with any of it. I find dick moves to be entertaining. I know she said that too.)

(11-24-2022, 01:53 PM)BobJones4980 Wrote: Yea but the point is that its different than roster churning which is what your talking about which is picking up and dropping to put them on waivers, since you need to hold them for 24 hours before they go to waivers.

Again doesn't really feel like a dick move when the other player can read the same news as everyone else, if you see your player is questionable all week for a Monday night game and don't make plans for it so you can hold onto your 6th WR on the bench then you deserve to be punished for it in my opinion.

Worse than being a dick is being a failing dick...


...but again, I'm not actually serious and have no real issue with any of it.

Each player should manage their roster, i agree. Staying ahead of the curve, so to speak. I don't disagree with any of this. 

Everyone is entitled to an opinion. You have no prob with it, i think it's a dick move to pick up a QB, with no intent to play or keep him, only to make sure someone you're playing doesn't get him. It's weak sauce and anyone should be embarrassed to do it. 

BUT, like i said, it's just a game and if someone truly doesn't like it, they can just opt out. 

So, to recap:
1. It's just a game
2. Not really a big deal in the grand scheme of things
3. Dick move
4. I'm outta this discussion which has gone on too long

I guess its just an agree to disagree for people on this type of thing.

Also now I gotta go find whatever post I multi-quoted you in so every post I make stops trying to quote you.
