I've had terrible luck in fantasy this year. 12 team PPR league, dynasty, 2 keepers a year. My team is stacked but I'm just 3-4 and Have given up 100 more points than the next closest team to me. Sanders assured me I'll probably lose again. My spirit is broken. And I'm throwing in the towel.

Trading McCoy/ Mike Wallace for 2nd round pick next year.

Trading Charles/Jimmy Graham/Percy for a first round pick.

I have McKinnon, OBJ as keeper options with last round picks plus Kelvin in the 9th so I'm just going all in on next year.

Rest of the league gonna be pissed when they see this tomorrow though

Why are you giving up at 3-4? When you have charles/jimmy/and mccoy?

It's not collusion, but Charles+Graham for a 1st round pick is dumb.

Dude. I'm friggin' 2-5 and I'm going to claw out of this hole somehow. With McCoy, Graham, Charles... There's absolutely no way YOU should be giving up.

I've got a pretty stacked team too and I just got frucked by Gates tonight. But keep on keepin' on!

At 3-5, I'll be 2 games back from making playoffs with 5 games left. And the way my luck has been, I won't make it. Would be a shame to let a team like this go to waste. At least next year, I can start with 2 first round picks, a 2nd, and 2 of McKinnon, OBJ, Benjamin late in the draft with my keepers

You've given up 100 more points than the next closest. That's what it is. Don't panic. You've just had bad luck and it won't keep up. What your opponent does is completely out of your control, but your team looks primed to make a run.

It's fair in a keeper league, but you should sell them individually or for higher prices. You're practically giving those players away. A guy in our league just did the same thing and I bought McCoy for a 3rd, and he sold Forte to another person for a 1st and I felt both of those were pretty fair. If you're gonna give up on the year at least get more value for your studs.

I was 1-4 to start the year last year. Then 2-5. Won out and made the playoffs. Giving up at 3-4 is bullshite.

It's not collusion but I'd be pissed if I was in your league.

So you're going to assume that your season is over because of bad luck? You can sell those players in three weeks for the same returns as you can now. Just wait, dude.

Dude. You're 3-4 with Charles graham and McCoy
stop thinking about championship. Think about playoffs

Get into the playoffs is your goal and at 3-4 that's a completely realistic goal. Now you go out there and get it. Go frickING get it!




GET IT!

I definitely wouldn't give up if I were you. Just because he had Sanders go off doesn't mean you are going to lose this week man. Charles or McCoy could just as easily go off.

But if you are dead set on giving up, you could get way more from contenders than what you are getting

It's not collusion, but it's certainly stupid.

1. You should look up the definition of collusion.
2. Those trades are retarded for a team that's 3-4
3. What makes you think your luck will be better next year? You should quit playing fantasy football if you're so worried about having bad luck.

Last year I was 1-6. Made the playoffs, then won the league. Its not over, suck it up and play like a man.
