My inside sauces are saying there could be a very heavy does of deflection right around the corner.

you missed it already. Pay closer attention. From TT v cousins right to AD in a flash.

 

[Wamu]

means you'll get an even bigger kick outta this shit later...

 

[tlance]

I play fantasy football.
It is IMO a combination of luck and skill.
You need to understand draft value and you need to stay on top of waivers, etc..

You can’t control injuries or often winning or losing because of garbage time points.

Definitely a combination of luck and skill.

Much like poker actually, IMO.

You make the best decision you can to give yourself the best chance to win. And if you do it well the overall percentages work out in your favor over time.

I don't need to "pay closer attention". I'm laughing at you again becuase as usual you're yelling at people that have the nerve to disagree with you. Same game from you, just a different day.

pretty much the old school definition of luck. it's where skill meets opportunity...

or if you're a fan of Star Trek, it's Ferengi rule of acquisition #9:"opportunity, plus INSTINCT, equals profit"

I have won far more football titles in my league than anyone in it. My record would speak for itself, as well....if I were as arrogant as you.

Though since you lack reading skills, allow me to remind you the luck claim was more for the 1-day leagues as they are mostly luck. when I win and do well it's not tough for me to admit much of the success was luck because I'm not as full of myself as you are.

And, yes, the year long leagues require a lot of luck as well......draft position, waiver position when the right guy is available that everyone wants, etc.

Nah.

I don’t play daily fantasy all that much.

But You do realize that big tournaments on Draft Kings and other daily sites are dominated by pros right?

You know why that is?

I will give you a hint:

It isn’t because they are “luckier” than everybody else.

Those old school Star Trekkers sure had smoooove moooves.

I'm good with anyone disagreeing. I laugh when they disagree and cry about something then commit the act they cry about.

And here you come on cue to jump in and make me laugh.

 

[tlance]

If it wasn't argue the poster not the post guys I would......but it is.

tlance cried about me for something that could not have been more identical to what he did. and I was right.

You know it wasn’t identical?

Because I have damn good reason to make fun of Wiggy.

And everyone here knows it.

You just like being a douchebag.

Agree..... but thing is in DFS everyone has the same opportunity.

Okay time to ride my bicycle to the dispensary. Be back later. @ChiefsLakers67 & @TurnUpTheHeat play nice!

It's because they enter a shit ton of lineups that give them a better chance of having the right combo of players for the winning lineup. You think the pros are winning with 1-3 lineups?

Identical....And I have damn good reason to make fun of you and you proved me right......you made sure to call yourself the smartest guy in the room.

 

[msgkings322]

Well team USA just beat Spain

Who's on Spain besides the Gasol brothers?

Spaniards?

AD and many others have had no much winning success.
I switched from Cousins because of the injuries which impacted his value.
Healthy Cousins gets a max, even without winning on his resume.

Great, but I never said otherwise. we were talking about Cousins who is not healthy.

Yeah...I get AD and Cousins have not won much. That's why it's weird you hold it against TT for not winning when Lebron was not there. well, not that weird as rational not a strong point for you.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Actually, no, it was about who the Lakers should sign. Try and keep up.

How'd Cousins do leading Sacto to wins?

When have the Kings ever been relevant after Divac/Webber? They have never had good players since.....really? It's not always about 1 individual player.....a lack of success is often because of a faulty FO.....see the Suns.

 

[DJ Fieri]

Slow sports season....

In salary negotiation, which is what we were discussing, its very relative.
James has won without a good center many times.

Lets try it a different way.

You think Cavs retain him?

What do you think his average annual salary will be next contract?
