Fournettes out indefinitely. So, while I may not have gotten what you guys think I should have, I got something... Not that Ajayi’s super healthy, but he’s playing.

I think assuming we do this again next year since theres some new players here (like me), we should go over veto rules, and trades getting pushed through. This isnt at a jab at bones or any one, just saying I shouldve asked questions earlier, and other people have questioned things and maybe before the draft we could have a brief rules thing and make sure we’re all on the same page.

I guess it bothers me that a few people wanted to veto this particular trade because they felt it wasnt good for me. I feel like veto’s should be used to police cheating not from guys making “dumb” moves, but if we want it to be both thats fine, I just personally think it wouldve been nice to know that before I made the trade.

Now Im having fun, and I will definitely be interested in playing again. Again this isnt meant as a personal attack or anything, but as someone new to the league and a novice with FF I just think itd be nice to know how things work. I put the blame on myself in a lot of ways if I had questions I shouldve asked.
 
Yeah, looks like we are the idiots now with Fournette possibly missing a couple more games.

Its not even about being idiots or me being an idiot for making the trade. I knew when I made the trade people would question it, but I had no idea people could or would veto a trade that was (at least to me) obviously not cheating. Not sure if that makes sense.
Like if you guys thought I was in cohoots with trailblazer to make his team the almighty team of teams, wouldve understood that totally. I guess protecting me from making moves you think are dumb, it never occured to me before that, that people would veto it because they think I was stupid for doing it.

Sorry if Im not making sense.

Man, I seriously love the way you conduct yourself in this forum. Your humility and general calmness just stands in such stark contrast to the vast majority of us, it is incredibly refreshing to read your posts.

Just wanted to let you know that I appreciate you.

BTW, Perez had trouble paying our buy-ins so I'm gonna have him try to PayPal me $100 so I can pay it through mine.

...excuses bro! First it was Perez didn't have PayPal and was paying you cash that you would collect in person...and that you didn't actually have $50 when the league started since you were on broke college kid tough times or something. Am I missing more explanations to why this is dragging on into week 5 now?

PayPal is not broken. It's quite literally the most popular payment gateway in the world handling billions in transactions per day. Cut the crap already. When are you going to pay? ...or maybe forfeit both of your teams?

Let the spinning spin doctor begin...

UPDATE: oh now it's that he owes you $50 for something so it's been reversed. Yeah life is hectic, welcome to the club my dude! It takes less than 30 seconds to send money via PayPal, FYI. I don't bring this up because I don't think you will pay...eventually. I bring it up because it's about integrity and following thru on your word and for the sanctity of the league. For someone that talks all this shit about everything you sure seem to have priorities a bit mixed up here. If you don't have the money at this time then just be honest about it...you'd be surprised how understanding people can be. But to keep piling on all this nonsense like it doesn't matter is just poor form for a comish.

I can't remember anyone ever THANKING ME for setting this up, especially not you... For working my ass off the find enough people, or for working my ass off to find a time that works for everybody, while people are getting upset at me if I suggest a time that doesnt work for them. Last year I even wrote weekly updates for yall... But the second something happens that ISNT MY FAULT, you're so quick to rant about it and give me ALL THE SHIT IN THE WORLD, even though you know I'LL PAY AND HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE.

You're being so goddam pathetic. And its all because you can see whos paid because I decided to make things better for everyone and go out and got a treasurer. From now on, if you have something to say to me, MESSAGE ME, because I've just about had it with you. Got it?

I offered Rodgers and Freeman for Brown, you didn't think that was good enough. You wanted Fournette too (before he was injured again). You aren't going to get that much for one stud receiver.

Freeman is in a timeshare and hurt. Rodgers is gimpy as well. If I had more trust in Freeman, I'd do it.

Wow. I cant believe Bones turned that down. Aaron Rodgers will probably finish the season as a top 3 QB and in a 2 QB league, that's very valuable. Bones has enough other good WR's to fill Brown's starting spot.

I offered you two solid RB's (you need depth, all yours are injury prone) for Ridley.

His expectation for a return is too high. It's fine, I wouldn't want to give up high level players for less than I wanted too, but will be hard to get a deal done that way.

Sorry, but if you think Bilal Powell and Javarious Allen is equal return for a rookie WR averaging over 26ppg in his last 3 games, then I don't k ow what to tell you.

I think with all the passing in the NFL right now the problems with WR is every team can basically support at least one and sometimes can support 3 so theres just a lot of them out there who can get you pretty good production.

Its so much harder to find RB’s who are good because you need them to get carries and catches and most teams have guys that basically do one or the other.

Like looking at most of our teams the difference has been guys who have dual threat RB’s like Kamara, Gurley, etc are hard to beat.

An injured RB in a timeshare who didnt look good before his injury and a hobbled QB for the best fantasy WR... Yeah, OK.

Pretty much this. My receivers look kind of weak on paper. Landry is top 10 in both yards and targets (4th amongst WR) though. Enunwa is 16th in WR targets. I got Edelman back this week, he's old and coming off injury last year but has been a PPR stud in the past and he's going to get action. Then I have a boom or bust guy in DeSean Jackson.

It's not really worth it to me to give up PPR gold mines like McCaffrey and Kamara for a stud WR when my guys are more than adequate.

Enunwa would have much better numbers if he was on another team.
