Ey look, Christmas came early! I got Cam Newton, Russell Wilson, JJ Watt and Zack Ertz. Just what I wanted!

I also got a box full of RBs with one leg! But if you add up all the legs... nah, still ain't got shit!

What did you get?

I got the last pick. I think I get that every year. My grade is a C.

Who the fuck are these guys I got? I got Dez, at least. I always hate my team at first


Last place before we even start.

Word. Up. Suck. It. Bitches.

The only part where it's wrong is where it suggests that I trade away one of my good quarterbacks to "upgrade at other spots." Uh, no, I took them because I wanted them, not because I wanted to trade them away for someone who makes 1/4 the fantasy points.

In all seriousness, can anyone explain to me why the general advice is always to put an RB in the flex position? That shit is insane. Quarterbacks get more points than anyone. I am genuinely baffled as to why you're not supposed to put a QB in the flex position.

In our league, the qb scores more. Standard leagues are weighted to RB

LOL

Yeah, uh. Anybody have any quarterbacks they want to trade away? I could use two.

Why are we nonstandard? I'm perfectly happy being nonstandard, I'm just curious.

I like higher scoring games. It's been like that for 4 or 5 years now. We also have more players than the standard league.

My team as currently constructed might be pretty bad.

As an Irishman. I can honestly tell you you don't want a Mulligan. A Jefferson or a Jackson would be better. /race
