THEN get lucky, have their qb out and still have 4 other positions score 20+ points. 

buuuuuuuuuuuuullshit.

It's because fantasy is 90% luck, sure you can make choices to increase your odds but in the end it is majority luck.

Hell, I'll jump on the misery bandwagon. I played Damian Harris against a terrible Detroit defense. Harris has scored in three straight games. He goes out after about 5 touches.
I sat Fournette, who hasn't scored all season up until today. I liked Fournette today and I considered him and Harris to be a coin flip. Well, apparently, I lost that one. Fournette crushed it on the bench with 30. Lol... FFB is crazy luck.

Yeah I feel quite bad about that. Also glad a bit, but mainly bad.

It's all good, just the way it goes sometimes.

Yeah I know, I was not apologizing. But I'm sorry about it nonetheless. It's just not the way one wants to see a trade go.

[TecmoBengals]

Oh so bfine, a trade offer has been sent your way.

Well we got a trade done, hoping all these guys don't get season ending injuries before this one goes through. 

Honestly anyway the commish could push this through before Saturday so we can set lineups? If you don't mind of course. Might be away from phone for a while this weekend and don't wanna miss setting lineups.

Ahhhh. I see how it works. I propose a trade...someone else jumps in and i don't even get a chance to negotiate.

Same as with the draft and IDP position. The rules are the rules!! You don't get to make the rules up as we go along, Bob.

Did you offer me a trade?

Man you really gotta get over the IDP thing from 2 months ago, you wanted to make it personal back then when you didn't get your way and it sounds like your still bitter about it.

Don't worry about pushing the trade through early, I know we have done it in the past but for coaches fragile ego I'll just set my lineups if I can get some time during work, if not then it's all good.

Oh yea, hopefully Swift is back after the bye and I won't need J. Williams. Probably won't stay healthy for 3 games but still... 

Also pretty sure I sent you an offer and it just sat there for 2 days before this trade, thought you'd seen it.

You still need a RB though right? Got Melvin Gordon and CEH if you wanna offer anything for one of them.

Virtual handshake on the deal.

Yes, can the commish please make it happen so we have the players for our games this week?

Bob denied my offers. He initiated this trade with me. I did notice that he specifically included a note that said, "I'm only doing this to screw over rfaulk34, we hate that guy, screw him, am I right?!?!?!"* Then the deal got done.

*This did not really happen.

I think it clears Saturday anyway right? I just work outta town this weekend and have heard the service is spotty so was hoping to get lineups set before leaving.

All good waiting til Saturday so we don't upset anyone.

Wow that's cold. I got the same message, but of course I immediately answered that in fact I appreciate rfaulk very much and would never ever do anything to hurt this fine gentleman. Shame on you.

I could only accept the trade and slowly smile while sinisterly crossing my hands as I helmed my keyboard.
