Make him follow Rex around for a day and proclaim Rex's wisdom in at least 5 different threads

pretty rough but you're on.

P.S. If you happen to have a shitty record going into W4, like 0-3, or something, don't come crying and trying to renig.

you could have chosen worse than VB

Strategy makes sense


it's not all about that either, You can check the Farmer's Almanac for high pollen trends in certain areas and cross reference the info against players with a history of allergy issues:

For example: Brandon Marshall has pollen allergies and thrived in the Mile High climate, however, since his move to Miami he's constantly rubbing his nose, snotting up his gloves and suffering from itchy watery eyes....leading to an uptick in his drops. It's not a guessing game, It's science.


you can use a whole host of information to evaluate players that aren't worth what people currently value them as.

you'd be suprised at what people think of when money is involved, and betting on FB is a big thing. Although that type of rational is over the top for a fantasy league, it is pretty ingenious stuff for those who are truly trying to research an edge. Never underestimate thoroughness.

Though I'm relatively new to FF, I've been betting on games for a while, and you're right, there are some crazy MFers out there. But as I said earlier, at the end of the day, this is a game where anything can happen. A lot of those wacky "theories" about trends and tendencies are proposed by guys who are trying to make a name for themselves, so that when coincidence strikes...they can say they were the one to come up with it, and make a bunch of money by selling their future picks to the rest of the sheep.

I assume some of this stuff for FF is no different - it's of course smart to do your research about players and matchups and stuff, but it can get to be ridiculous to the point of basically throwing darts at a wall. It's a sport. At the end of the day, it's not all that predictable.

Want to trade me Jacoby Jones for Marshall, straight up? Sounds like I'm fricked with Marshall in the MIA
