In other words, I like playing for fun against others just picking teams using their own wit, rather than guys plugging in picks supplied from an algorithm or subscription service.
Understood. We will keep it at $2. As far a algorithms go though, you should not fear them. As someone who has ran thousands of them, they are only effective when you play them in mass quantities, like say 50-100 different rosters (which I have done frequently). They are for those with big money to spend (well, I would play 100 rosters in the nickel entry games, so not really big money). 90% of the time I would break even. It’s all about that lucky sleeper pick or two hitting big numbers.
