I know it's not nearly the same as several other franchise but man the Titans are frustrating to support

Things can change pretty quickly.

Look at the Panthers lately.

How fucking stupid is this…

I can’t pick up a player for the playoffs in a money league bc the commish set $1 as minimum bid. I didn’t know until know, figured you could just bid $0 like any league when you blow your wad.

IMO the strategy of a faab is that when you run out of money other teams get dibs and you have to fight for scraps. NOT, you can’t set a fucking lineup in the playoffs!
I've always thought that's the way it's SHOULD be done, and the fact that it's typically not, is one of the main reasons I'll never (knowingly) agree to a FAAB league. Just dumb, either you have to have $ for players or you do not.

Sucks though that you weren't made aware earlier, sorry

What's going on with DK Metcalf? Realize JSN is good, but i guess I didn't realize he was good enough to make DK disappear

Don't get me started.

Such an amazing bust this year.

Another thought that crosses my mind during the afternoon slate - Rams maybe shouldn't have traded away all those picks for so many years.

Puka and Turner last yr, Verse, Fiske, Corum, Kintchens all look like good-to-great pros

They won a SB. Hard to argue regardless of what the price was

not one single dynasty I'm in has Guerendo available. Everyone had the foresight to hold onto him once CMAC and Mason were back active. Guess he's only a waiver wire darling in re-drafts

well if you do happen to get him- anywhere- let us know so we can go get Patrick Taylor/K. Vaughn/Abanikanda

Even if I could get him anywhere I'd break him in less than an hr after getting him. .....
49ers coach Kyle Shanahan said Isaac Guerendo has a sprained foot, and the team will “evaluate him over the next few days” to determine his Week 15 availability.

Heck, my RB luck is so bad that even thinking about a guy can break him. .... but since I don't have him anywhere - tough banana's to those that do. ...

Geesh. I could buy a #1..I dunno about anything else

Someone else paid a 1st + 2nd for Love, not sure the matchups this postseason will make that deal worth it but understand both sides - original owner wanting more than a 1st and the guy with ARich wanting a better QB going forward

In a first year superflex dynasty

No rules/thoughts put into tanking guidelines, a few first time dynasty players, but i figured not my circus, I'm just one of the monkeys here.

Several non-playoff teams failed to even put their bench guys in to replace bye weeks/injuries so I brought it up.

No one getting feathers ruffled but having discussions.

Pushing to use Max Points For instead of W-L record or Points For to order the non-playoff teams for draft. Currently going by record, then Points for tiebreaker, rewarding the teams that stopped playing, and most everyone agrees that tweaks need to occur

Thoughts, suggestions, etc welcome from all

I think it's correct-able behavior, so not looking to bail

(I also have one of the best teams this season, lol)

The problem with tanking is twofold.
1 What is tanking
2 How do you tell someone is tanking

Going to number 2. Using what happened in D2 this year with EHB. How can you tell if he was just being an absent owner or tanking?
On #1, in D1 this year for the final game I ended up with 3 TEs all on byes. I decided to not drop one for a 1 week TE. Was I tanking or was I trying to keep my TEs for future use? To me I was keeping my TEs, to someone else I purposely left a spot empty.

Have the same issue in the SF on Sleeper that I'm in. Two owners are not managing their team. Like you I don't wish to bail as my rebuild is going pretty good but the problem seems to being ignored , at least so far. So I'll be interested on solutions.
