The amount of hate I have for this game grows 10 times more for each and every in-game injury my players suffer. ...

Wow that was interesting. I came on top in two money leagues that didn’t look so good.

Won by 3 points. I had Boswell. Unlucky he had Mason last night. He would have killed me.

Ended up winning by 9 but I was down 2 late in Pitt game. I had Nabers, PIT D and Boswell down over 30. I lost Mason last night

I wonder if Engram's targets will increase with Kirk lost for the season.

Nah. Lawrence will spend the first half throwing to some guy you never heard putting up a stat line of 2 for 8, 30 yards, 1 INT and 3 sacks. Then he'll remember Engram is on the team and Engram will finish with 3 recs, 40 yards.

Browns placed LB Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah (neck) on injured reserve.
Owusu-Koramoah suffered a neck injury in Week 8 while attempting to tackle Ravens running back Derrick Henry.

Can't find the video but Steven Jackson breaking Mike Rumph's arm when he tried to tackle him was awful and funny at the same time

Just a general fantasy ethics discussion I wanted to see some people's thoughts on, no reason just curious where people's heads are at.

Today I got a completely unbalanced trade offer where a guy was gonna send me Terry McLaurin/Breece Hall for Josh Downs/Evan Engram. I got the alert and before I could press "accept", he had already cancelled. Clearly he made a mistake. Like we're talking the deal was offered and within 30 seconds cancelled. But what if I hit accept in time? Would that be wrong to take advantage of a mistake like that? I only play in a couple of leagues, this year just two, one with friends and another with randos and the deal came from the rando league. I don't think I would have hit accept in the friend league because I know these people and I suppose I'd feel some type of way. I guess I could gloat at their stupidity, but I'm not that kind of guy. I probably wouldn't feel as bad about it against a rando but the more I think about it, I probably would have tried to send him some other players in a separate deal to make it more fair or something.

So no judgement either way, what would yall do in that scenario? Take the deal, their mistake their loss. Not take the deal, try to work out something more fair.

If this is a seasonal league, any trade should be based on who else you've got rostered. Let's say the guy has D. Henry, Barkley. Gibbs and K. Williams, strong at WR, but weak at TE - does he really need Hall ? Or maybe he just likes those guys better. Yes, it's a stretch to imagine - but I've seen stranger things. That aside, think I'd at least ask if that's what he really meant before accepting - I've run into a few that were real and some that weren't - no harm in asking if it's a 'friendly league'.

You fell victim to one of the classic blunders.

Seeing that i have sent too many offers for players to be sent to my roster with absolutely nothing from my roster in return... mistakes happen.

If its a legit (yet lopsided) offer, accept. If its a mistake, (and if it were me) I would reverse it.
