    Who is Russell Wilson?

    I haven't seen him lie or act out of character. He knows what he wants, says what he wants, and then tries to get it. I appreciate honesty more than just about anything else. He's often a bad QB, but that's not part of his character.

    Chess…

    There is always tension between different rights, where one right is suspended in favor of a more important right. The right to free speech hurts other individuals all the time, but being unable to speak would be worse. If everyone was held to the bar you were previously thinking Magnus should...

    Chess…

    Nothing illegal about chess.com causing "real financial damage" when it's their own tournaments, and with that huge document explaining why. They can only get in trouble if they lied. Doubt anyone is going to uninvite Hans just because Magnus states he will resign. What kind of a threat is...

    Chess…

    Magnus is acting as an individual without any authority (influence sure, but not authority). If he thinks Niemann is cheating, there's nothing legally or morally wrong with saying that. It would be a problem if FIDE or a similar organization with authority treats Niemann differently with the...

    The long undershirts trend??

    Bald & nude, except for a finkle/einhorn bundle, is obviously the optimal way.

    Lynch, Baldwin and now Earl

    My opinion, Baldwin/Earl/Sherman/etc is a response to Pete's rah-rah team schtick. Players bought in for a couple years, realized the NFL is a cutthroat business, and the (past and daily) backlash is worse than on teams where players treat it like just a business from the get-go. Pete has...

    Trading Julio

    Crowell trade looks good to me.

    Carson vs. Mixon

    Keep Mixon imo. We've seen what Carson is in our lead back role against a middling defense, and it's not enough to drop the ceiling of Mixon. As bad as it is in Cincinnati, I think it is worse here. They have flopped against two very good defenses, Hawks against good and average defenses. I...

    My Team, any thoughts?

    Some risky picks in rounds 2/3, but that's what happens if you want high ceiling guys in your spot. I like it. Pretty much always a good idea to trade 2 players for 1 better player. With only three bench spots you probably won't get any interest in your lower picks, so you'd want to look at...

    Keeper league dillema? Or am I stupid?

    He said Julio would cost him his 1st round pick (6th overall), not his 6th round pick.

    Hawks trying to trade WR Kearse

    I love what Kearse provides, valuable part of the offense. Unfortunately Wilson throws Kearse the ball too much, and it seems the only way to make him stop is to get rid of Kearse. :(

    Keeper league dillema? Or am I stupid?

    I'd personally go with Graham if you're fine replacing Julio with Evans/ODB/McCoy. Evans is the pick in PPR imo with ODB injury uncertainty, pretty even with Julio. I wouldn't go McCoy unless your league kept a ridiculous number of RBs.

    Ongoing RB Preseason Thread

    Am doing some fantasy football research, and noticed Chris Carson's simulated SPARQ numbers are pretty good. Similar to Joe Mixon. Slightly higher weight than all the rookies above him(except for Mixon), which probably means he would be higher if he lost a few pounds (not saying he should of...

    Vicious Kam Chancellor hit still haunts Vernon Davis

    Kam didn't leave his feet, right foot was on the ground at contact. Check the slow motion video posted earlier in thread, 18 seconds in. Kam's helmet is sideways relative to VD, facing the camera, if there is any contact with VD's chest it is minor and non-crown. Mostly hit VD's arm. Could make...

    Playoffs finals flex advice

    You guys suck, I was hoping some other Seahawks homers would encourage my homerism so I could go for Lockett. :) I thought Lockett had a chance to be a top 10 WR this year.

    Playoffs finals flex advice

    What do you guys think for my flex spot in PPR for the finals? Larry Fitzgerald, Ty Montgomery or Tyler Lockett. Right now I'm leaning towards Ty > Tyler >= Fitz. Hoping Starks is out again.

    Week 2 FF Boasts and Moans

    Johnson ($2) and Nelson ($11) were keepers from last year. In a $200 auction draft with 15 bench players I spent $70 on brown & $51 on bell ($8 on d williams).

    So, how did your Week 1 go?

    189 points in ppr. A. Smith, David johnson, D'Angelo Williams, jordy, a brown, fitzgerald, and Zach ertz. Could've hit 200 if I'd started Novak over McManus and Ebron over ertz. Strange league - Auction draft with 15 bench spots and almost no waiver wire pickups allowed(we auction two off...

    So, who will be our starting Center?

    I also think it will be Hunt. His size is his only negative.
