They don't let you go to google during your psyche ward internet time or something?

Here we go. Can't have one thread.

Relax man. Not everyone plays in shallow leagues like you.

Carson Steele - They keep Elijah Mitchell, Kareem Hunt, and 7th rounder Breahard Smith over him. Interesting.

Shanahan specifically said they brought Robinson in to be RB2. https://www.49erswebzone.com/articles/193467-shanahan-discusses-newest-49ers-running/ "We brought him here to be our two back. Always been a big fan of Brian," Shanahan said. "Loved him coming out of college. He's done really well going against him, and we were pumped that he was available and we were pumped that we were able to get him." Guerendo was subsequently seen playing special teams in last Saturday's game where anyone with any significance didn't even suit up. I like guerendo, but he's done-zo

imagine if everyone just sent them random wedding gifts. The whole Chiefs team will all have brand new toasters.

What is the greatest country in the world?

Is IBU of 50 high or low? I just drink things that taste good mostly. I don't get into brewing and distilling and all that. And I always consider it a blessing when I like cheap drinks. Coors banquet for the win. I can get it in anywhere and it's smooth as silk, baby!
-
I'm not even sure why you guys drink anything that tastes sh¡tty. There's plenty of options out there to get a buzz.
-
The buzz and the taste. Wouldn't you only need to be concerned about ABV if you were trying to get drunk as quickly as possible? That's not really a consideration for me, and if you're looking for ABV why wouldn't you just drink liquor?
-
I'm not in a frat. ABV doesn't impress me.

He said feminine not bad. Why do associate feminine with bad?

This reminds me of that youtube guy that has three days for every one day of everyone else's. I'm not crazy... YOU'RE crazy

I too found IPAs overly bitter. Then I never drank them again.
-
I have this rule of thumb that for every day before a game the team tells you a player is out, that's at least a week added to his injury. So if they say a guy is out on wednesday, that's at least a three week injury. Thursday? that's at least two weeks. It's based on the fact that coaches love to lie about injuries and if they're willing to rule a guy out early and not make them a game time decision, the guy must be close to losing a limb or something. Now this isn't the same scenario because they probably had to declare their NFI list by a deadline, but the fact that they are willing to shelve him for 4 weeks means it's at least 8 weeks.

We should keep a list of sh¡t no one cares about The marathon you ran or are running Your fantasy team Your favorite IPAs

Glad you found a beer you like, Jerry. Really happy for you.
-
I don't really care if people like IPAs and special roaster coffee or whatever and don't think it's feminine. Just shut the F up about your Dipsy-Doo Dunkeroo Triple Bypass IPA. I'm glad you found a beer you like. There are thousands of them. Who cares? It's like telling people about your fantasy team. No one cares... even if they act like they do.

I about lost my sh¡t when he jammed his nose in the beer talking about hints of tangerine or whatever. South Park should hire that guy.

This board is about to see a lot less activity.

Any good systems or process for ranking players expected to miss games?
nobody replied to cmh6476's topic in FFToday Board
I wouldn't touch Mixon with a 10 foot pole, but if you are this is a great example on the thought process to mitigate the risk. Let's say you have an IR slot and you happen to think Mixon comes back by week 5-6. You are wrong, but if you want to die on that hill then there is potential value. You could draft Mixon, and then draft Chubb and maybe even Woody Marks. However, my take is that backfield will be a mess all season and there is no clear handcuff to mitigate the Mixon risk. Chubb will probably start. Marks will probably play 3rd down, and then there is the risk Chubb is washed, so Damien Pierce now becomes a problem. Couple that with the threat that Mixon could (and probably will) miss far more than 4 games and there's no telling how long it'll take him to get right even when he does come back, and Mixon needs to be significantly derated. Counter example: Let's say you're worried about CMC and his paper-mache achilles tendons . Well, you can easily mitigate that risk by drafting Brian Robinson late and if CMC goes down, you have a work horse RB1 ready to step in, so you don't need to really derate CMC draft stock that much. You just need to be damn sure you get Robinson if you draft CMC. -
weepaws fancies himself an FF expert and confessed that he never watches games and shows up to drafts with three ranking sheets. He continually admits that he can't think critically and apply nuance to a situation with his "always draft a qb and te after X round." If a newb is a freshman, then a guy like weepaws is maybe a junior and isn't that much better than a guy that doesn't watch games and shows up to a draft with rankings. He just has more practice doing it. I think what I call an average player includes the types like weepaws that think they're good because they have a lot of practice and the ones that just pick the the guys they heard of at the top of the draft list. It's like poker. And coaching. And like really anything in life. If you do something enough or are exposed to something enough, you can kind of mimic competence and maybe even consider yourself good. Heck others might consider you good, but you don't really know the "why" you're doing what you're doing. you're just mimicking what trial and error or observation taught you work without understanding why it worked. So in traditional formats, most experienced players fall into that category. They have enough practice to know what it kind of should look like. In the IDP format, it's clear that most people don't even know what good looks like. Yes, the variance and player-to-player deltas aren't extreme, but this ain't like kickers. We can predict who will score more than whom. And exploiting those 1, 2, 3 point edges is the whole point. Punting on the whole concept and saying it's unknowable is weepaws sh¡t. We post at FFToday all through the offseason and contribute to the advancement of the hobby. We ain't Mike McCarthy and Matt Eberflus and Jeff Fisher and probably Shane Steichen that mimic what they saw some elite coaches did. We are the elite. We think critically. We exploit edges. We don't punt on something because it's not obvious.
-
And that's what I'm saying. The extent of work the average FF player does is to show up with a ranking sheet. There's no watching games. There's no critical thinking about how cam ward has been favoring targets to Ridley or how marvin harrison Jr was slow and couldn't separate and his solution was to add more weight to make himself even slower. And they sure as hell don't ask themselves who might be a 3 down LB for the rams. Heck, the guys at espn who are paid to do that clearly don't do that.
-
I disagree that enough sites have it. The first sites people are going to are espn and yahoo. And those espn rankings are downright shameful (I didn't bother looking at yahoos since even their standard fantasy rankings are garbage). They should've just linked to a statement that said, "we fired anyone that was qualified to make these rankings."
