What's the fantasy board's opinion on this? Do you prioritize your fantasy team over your hate for rival players? Personally as a Saints fan I have a hard time pulling for Cam Newton, Roddy White, etc. so I tend to shy away from them come draft time.

Fantasy success is more important than the real games to me

You are hurting your chance at a good team if you do this.

If the right pick is Cam Newton, you take him. Then you hope he scores 4 rushing TDs and throws for 500 yds with 100 rushing yds but the saints pull out the win in both games.

Would do it. Would be hard to draft Cam because I fricking loathe him. I did have Steve Smith a couple times. I hate him too.

A falcon has to be significantly better than a comparable player for me to take him.

When I play against a saint I cheer for the saints first, fantasy be damned.

My NFL fandom in no way interferes with my fantasy team. Sometimes I favor the Auburn players a little more than I should though.

Crap on that.

Whoever can help me win can start on my squad. I've had Steve Smith go off on the Saints before plenty of times. shite happens.

would still cuss up a storm just the same when he'd get a big play against them too.
