I just discovered this film. I don't even remember the Ben Stiller remake from 2007. I'm 43 years old, by the way. I've only watched about the first half of the 1972 film on You Tube. I'm finding it hilariously funny even though this film is 50 years old. I'll probably check out the 2007...
1. Jordan Bulls. 6 titles in 8 years. Greatest player.
2. Showtime Lakers. 5 titles and 8 Finals appearances in the '80s.
3. Russell Celtics. Absolute domination in the late '50s through the '60s. The only reason they're not no. 1 is because I'm persuaded by the argument about there being...
Since Manfred is changing so many rules anyway, what if we put in a rule that the batter can decline a walk? One time thing in each at bat, so you can't change your mind later on in the at bat. This would mean that an at bat will either end in a strikeout or the ball is put in play. I think a...
I've done a similar thread for the NFL and NBA, and I followed up both of those threads with a poll. Not sure we need a poll for this one. I think it is very clear that the Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers, Giants, Cubs, and Cardinals are storied. Yankees are in their own tier. Red Sox, Dodgers...
Which teams are the top 5 most storied after the Lakers and Celtics? Please feel free to make a case for each team in this thread. You don't have to vote for 5.
I did a thread like this in the NFL board. I have a feeling that this one will be a little different because I don't think there are as many storied NBA teams as there are storied NFL teams. We obviously don't need to waste time nominating the Lakers and Celtics as they have 34 combined NBA...
Follow up to the thread about which teams you consider storied NFL teams. As expected, a lot of teams have good or great cases, so a lot of teams made the poll. I think I included every team that got nominated. Of those teams, which ones do you consider your top 10?
Forgive me for including...
Let's nominate them, and then maybe I'll do a poll on who are the top 10 storied franchises. You can use any criteria you want. Super Bowl success is sure to be a factor, but you can assign it whatever weight you want. I will start by nominating two franchises that don't have much Super Bowl...
I own him in a couple leagues. It feels like he gets 90% of his production in the last 6 minutes of the 4th quarter? Can I continue to start him confidently? The Lions barely score. They are 0-6. Do you think it's possible that they limit the workload of their young promising players since...
Some injuries have opened up some opportunities. Who do you like more between Darrell Williams and Devontae Booker, considering all the relevant factors, such as talent level, role, quality of their team's offense, game script, and how many games you think they'll actually have before the...
The Rocket Mortgage MSU Spartans. LOL. Why don't they just change their name to MSU Rockets?
Michigan State announces basketball team will now be called 'MSU Spartans Presented by Rocket Mortgage'
Played in 3 leagues. Two first place finishes and a third place. Thank you everyone for the discussion, advice, and humor here. It definitely added to the fantasy experience.
Team one (first place). I finished with 7 of 15 of my drafted players : Kamara, Hunt, Mostert, Dobbins, Ridley, A...
Semifinals. 0.5 PPR. Feel really good about starting Chubb and Jonathan Taylor as my RB's with Adams and Aiyuk as my WR's, but who should I start at flex between Miles Sanders (at AZ), Dobbins (vs JAX), Swift (at TEN), Hunt (at NYG), and Julio if active (vs TB)?
I think Julio is an easy sit...
With Chubb being so dominant, there doesn't seem to be much room for Hunt to score a ton of fantasy points. Sure, he might be good for a floor, but you're probably not starting him in the playoffs anyway and it might be a blessing if your playoff opponent picks him up and starts him.
I am...
I was watching NFL Network last night, and one of the fantasy pundits said that these 5 guys should be drafted in the first round next year: 1) Kelce; 2) Metcalf; 3) Gibson; 4) James Robinson; and 5) Swift. Which ones do you agree with? Are you planning on drafting Kelce in the 1st round next...
Anyone putting in a claim for Salvon Ahmed? He seems to be the hot pickup this week. Anyone looking to add Nyheim Hines, Michael Pittman, Jalen Reagor, or Jameis Winston? I didn't play fantasy football last season, but I'm guessing that Jameis was great because all the yardage and TD's more...
Any thoughts on which type of receiver is best to have in fantasy? I believe I have 2 split ends in A. Rob and Fulgham, a flanker in Ridley, a slot in Boyd, and I think Antonio Brown moves around a lot, but he's mostly on the outside, I think. Do most guys move around in the different receiver...
Half-PPR. I'm starting Kamara of course as one of my RB's. Who should I start as my second RB? Swift vs. WFT or Hunt vs. HOU. I think Chubb is coming back this week, which actually might be a good thing for Hunt's fantasy production, and coming off a bye week, maybe Hunt will be past those...
