I went to high school with them for a year and played basketball with them. They were cocky but were hardly "classless pieces of shite"

Played on the same high school team as Rasheed, he was always a douche but sexual assault would shock me

I played with him in high school and he was always kinda a head case. Everyone just assumed coach k would straighten him out though

I've gotten to play hakeem Olajuwon one on one a couple times at lifetime fitness in Houston. He is one of the nicest people I've met and even at age 50 it's amazing to watch how smooth he is on the court

Watching Kevin love in college, I thought no way would be become anything more than an off the bench big who could rebound and draw fouls. His development has really impressed me.

In contrast from the same draft, I thought oj mayo was going to be a stud but he's regressed almost every year since going off as a rookie

Trade bell?

Posted by eumont on 11/18/14 at 2:40 pm

This week is the last week in the regular season for my league. I am sitting at 6-5 and need to win to make the playoffs. My best player is leveon bell who is on bye this week obviously. Should I think about trading him to ensure I win this week or hold onto him and risk it? I have jordy for bell proposed to me already. I should win this week but if I don't, I would feel horrible for not doing everything I could to make the playoffs.
My team-
Qb-Luck
Rb Fred Jackson
Rb Sankey
Wr Hilton
Wr Desean Jackson
Flex Julio
Te Gronk
D- colts
Bench- ball, Terrence Williams, cordarrell

Opponent
Brees
Morris
McKinnon
Ryan Matthews
Golden Tate
Jordan Matthews
Julius Thomas
Browns
Projected me- 115 him-108

Bradshaw for Julio?

Posted by eumont on 11/3/14 at 4:17 pm

My team (I know very heavy on colts players. Fingers crossed for tonight)
Qb-Luck
Rb Bell
Rb Bradshaw
Wr Hilton
Wr Desean Jackson
Flex Garçon
Te Gronk
Bench- ball, sankey, Terrence Williams, cordarrell

I was offered Julio for Bradshaw. I feel like Julio is more valuable but I am a little thin at rb. Would you make this trade?

re: Check in if you sat DeSean Jackson

Sat him and started garçon instead. Needed 8 points to win and only got 2 :angry:

Trade advice- bell or forte

Posted by eumont on 9/24/14 at 1:21 pm

I currently have leveon bell on my team which has been great these first 3 weeks. I am being offered trade packages that center around Matt forte for bell.

Who for the rest of the season is more valuable in this boards opinion? What are the reasons for fortes semi struggles this season and do you think bell can continue his dominance?
Specially the offers have been forte and Percy harvin for bell and Crabtree

Just wondering, what makes you so high on Allen?

So really, you didn't want us to actually rate your team. You just wanted us to fawn over your incredible drafting ability and expert ownership

re: Let's talk Marshawn Lynch

Posted by eumont on 8/4/14 at 12:14 am to cornstarch

I watched Michael all throughout college and was never very impressed. He has all the measurable you would want but he just doesn't seem to put it together on the field. Also, despite his horrible super bowl performance, Lynch was great in the playoffs last year.

I think the only concern is that Seattle is probably not going to keep Lynch next year (huge salary cap hit) so they will starting trying out both Turbin and Michael to see how those guys respond and if they are viable replacements, and in doing so will decrease the touches Marshawn gets.

Yeah I actually perfer Floyd over Patterson but Floyd went for $11 so I couldn't really justify going higher

Thoughts on my Auction Draft?

Posted by eumont on 8/3/14 at 5:46 pm

QB- Tony Romo, Dal QB $4
RB- LeSean McCoy, Phi RB $59
RB- Montee Ball, Den RB $31
WR- Julio Jones, Atl WR $31
WR- Randall Cobb, GB WR $25
TE- Rob Gronkowski, NE TE $30
Flex- Cordarrelle Patterson, Min WR $5
Defense- Bengals D/ST $1
K- Dan Bailey, Dal $1
Bench
Kyle Rudolph, Min TE $2
Terrance Williams, Dal WR $6
Jeremy Hill, Cin RB $1
Andre Brown, Hou RB $1
Ryan Tannehill, Mia QB $1
Roy Helu, Wsh RB $1
Kelvin Benjamin, Car WR $1

I think I may have overpaid for Mccoy and feel like my WRs are a little thin but otherwise I feel ok with it. I also tried to stay with the studs and dubs strategy. This is my first year doing an auction draft and have another one next week so any advice on what to change/do differently would be really appreciated.
