Message Board Braggin' Rights League

[Yellow Fuzzies]

I stayed out of the great Waiver wire debate. I am good with either FAAB or rolling waivers. do not care for weekly reset.

 

[Yellow Fuzzies]

There was a big deal about the Athos division when we selected draft positions prior to the draft. Well there are only two teams in the league outside the Athos division that would not be either in first place or tied for first in Athos at this point. We are not that tough.

guys I'll just never see eye to eye with anyone as to why this concept of "fairness" towards teams already doing well is so much more important than the single easiest way to encourage parity. I'll never ever agree with that ideology

I don't want to rehash anymore, but that is exactly my beef.

I don't think redraft leagues should strive for parity. Every team starts off on equal footing. Some do well, others don't. Making rules that punish good team a while rewarding the bad During the season just does not make sense to me.

The Browns don't have some special advantage that will allow them to get back in the mix this year. They will continue to struggle. What they will gain is pick number 1 to help them next year. That I am fine with.

 

[Bandit]

So Tlance and Bandit have finally come to an agreement after about 6 weeks of back and forth. Bandit sends C.J. Anderson and Devontae Booker to Tlance for Kelvin Benjamin and Jeremy Maclin.

Got your offer Bandit...I'm on the fence at this point.

Got your offer Bandit...I'm on the fence at this point.

I know, it's not a very sexy deal. If there are other pieces I have that your interested in and want to spice things up a bit, I'm all for that too!!

I know I'm a broken record, I just don't get that mentality. .that's all, just don't. and I'm a hardcore conservative republican!

I like the bottom to rise up, I don't want a bottom. and if giving the bottom 1st pick off the trash heading helps accomplish that, small price to pay. a top to bottom competitive league, week in week out is amazing, more fun, more interesting. and thas just a simple way to try and get there. .that's all. .I don't care that it's not fair to the top teams, such is life

Sometimes the bottom has to help itself, that is all I'm saying. My final words of wisdom on the issue.

It really has been 6 weeks of haggling. Good luck to KB and Maclin in their new homes.

I'll go take another peek.

 

[Chef99]

Decided to pass on it, Bandit...however, the week is still young!

 

[Bandit]

If anybody is interested in the Ravens defense for this week playing the Jets, send me an offer. I am trying to find a deal for a tight end just for this week, but if I'm unable to do that, I will have to drop the Ravens defense and pick one up but if that happens it won't be until Saturday so they will be unavailable this weekend.

 

[Chef99]

Alrighty then!

Fuzzy over Chef - Christine comes back to haunt.
Tlance over Ram - Jacquizz and Lamar make it close, but the Denver boys close the door.
Milk over Treff - Gio does Cleveland but Russell has a tough week; Alshon breaks through.
Steelers over TKO - Just too much firepower on Steelers' end.
Joe over Lefty - ARob breaks through.
Bandit over Face - Aaron is pissed.

 

[Bandit]

Ram over Tlance - Ram picked a good week to run into a Zekeless T.

Milk over Treff - just like Milk's matchups slightly better but this one will be close.

Steelers over TKO - Man his team looks really good.

Joe over Lefty - Rough week for Lefty

Fuzzy over Chef - this is the week

Face over Bandit - I'm sure Face will find a way to score 140 points against me. It's just what I do for people

@TKOSpikes
Seriously considering your offer(s). I'm scared tho.
Do I need to decide by tonight?
All be out watching the Bears. And probably the Cubs.


Here's my quick picks for week 7:
tlance Virginias Ram
Milky creams Treff
Steelers buffalos TKO
Joe rights Lefty
Fuzz "Pappy O'Daniels" Chef for his first loss
Bandit "Trans Am's" Face


One other thing... if we're talking about changes to the MBBRL.... I'd like to nominate that we add an IR spot for 2017.

Yeah. Offer comes down at kickoff.


Tlance over Ram
Bandit over Face
Treff over Milk
Joe over Lefty
Fuzzy over Chef
Pride over TKO

 

[tlance]

Tlance picks:

Tlance over Ram- kind of shocked to see ESPN has me as an 11 point dog. Only matchup I am concerned about is Thomas.

Treff over Milk: the new additions pace Treff this week.

TKO over SP: Charles and Ware might combine for 50.

Joe over Lefty: joe looks strong this week

Chef over Fuzz: chef does just enough in the game of the week

Bandit over Face: Face struggles til the return of Big Ben

 

[TREFF]

I'll be out,and about this evening but regardless of game time, will make my picks before I check to see how amazing Ty Montgomery is doing
