I'd rather have Chase Daniel's NFL career arc...practice here and there, hold some clipboards, laugh when things are going well, pretend to be interested in the ipad on the sidelines when things are going bad, keep getting deals until you die
Legendary Bear Steve McMichael was asked what his ideal position would be. His answer: backup QB.

I’ve always been a proponent of bullpen catchers. What a life!

See I always think of Clipboard Jesus Charlie Whitehurst when I think of guys that had a great job. In the league 11 years and started 9 games. Only played in 25 total. You know when your nickname has clipboard in it that you aren't starting many games.

This is Chase's 11th season, only has 5 starts under his belt, lol

Someone needs to give those guys the Luckiest Boy In The World medals

Dynasty league. Bonus points for long TDs.

I have Dak, Herbert and Stafford and we only start 1. Dude wants one. He has Jimmy G and Tyrod. Is Stafford worth what looks to be a late 1st (12 teams)?

Well, I'd say if you can swing that, go for it. Would I pay that much? No, but you never know what is in the other guy's mind. ....

Was going to offer this and come back with adding my 2nd and 4th. Would be late picks. I would have to skip the 4th, most likely, but it may sound a little better if I include it.

dropped Mattison last week to cover some injuries, guy I'm facing this week got him off waivers. The kicker to this whole thing is that Ingram getting ruled out on Thanksgiving made me scramble and drop Mattison, and now he currently still has kamara in his starting lineup, and travels/is busy at work frequently, while I have Ingram in my lineup.

on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being "you going to hell" and 10 being "you're a good friend", where do you rate my overwhelming desire for him to leave Kamara in his starting lineup?

Honestly, things like that are the very reason, I don't look at my opponents lineup. .... though it's normally pretty easy to figure out. That said, I'd just chose to ignore the news and play it out and see if he catches it - heck with everyone having all this stuff on their phones for alert anymore he probably knows.

I shot him a message on group text, unrelated to fantasy. He's been on the golf course all day since it's spring time in December apparently.

Still has Kamara in lineup, hoping those beers were flowing on the course today!!!

I think I'm now relying on his kids to keep him distracted, he lives out your way in Denver.

Under 50mins to kickoff, still has Kamara in

If you do it once, you have to do it every time. That's why I stay quiet if it happens to me.

I dunno what's worse, absent-mindedly leaving Kamara in, or purposely going with Amari Cooper like I am
I'm with you in 2 leagues. Worried he may be a decoy this game. What's worse, is that I am sitting Gallup in a league.

saw all the twitter stuff talking about Cooper not participating in warmups...scary proposition to roll with him after the news blurbs about lingering covid impacts

Kamara still in his lineup, odds of me winning greatly increased, need it for playoffs too!
