okay people, where are the trade offers? all 14 of Ya'll can't be "fine" with the trash that I see out there.

Djax/Dbowe Available, lookin for a TE/RB

I never do one for one, so put things out there that utilize the bench. I 'm not against you pulling more players from my side either...take 3 give 2...I love free space to scour the FA for the diamond in the ruff

Trading with you is expensive, Kash. While I get that it potentially should be, we don't have any results so far this year to determine what is really worthwhile right now or not. I'm waiting until the season gets rolling before moving anyone.

so when you see you got shite, then you want to trade that shite for something better? yeah, that's "Ideal" but the other team will probably worry about that guy too....understand?

Having a non-pass catching Rb tandem with a QB is something frowned upon....you could at least manage your team in that regard.....but if you're not concerned then that's fine by me.

If a player does well, then you aren't trading him.....right?

Of course I understand that, but your interpretation of shite and my interpretation in fantasy football will be vastly different. Between Jackson's neck and back problems over the past few weeks, what good does a high PPR rating do for you if the guy is out on his arse?

Palmer's numbers will be better with the addition of TO. Turner is supposed to be worked into the passing game more often. Benson provides steady production, if not a lot of pass catches out of the backfield. I'm big on Hightower as a flex, especially with Arizona's passing game looking so dismal.

Assumptions do not suit you well. Depends on who is offered and how they accenuate my team. All of that being said, you do sound like a car salesman in regards to fantasy football.

I bet he disagrees. Next thing he will say is how little I know about this stuff; which, in part, he is right. However, it also lends validation to what I'm claiming. The good thing is that this is football...it's not hard to figure out.

no, not about knowledge, about fear.

You know that the dude won't catch anything (either, you pick), you know that "independent experts" rank them on par with Moreno/Wells(based on scoring), you know that QB/RB same team is counterproductive, you know Ward is 90 years old and without his QB the 1st 4-6 weeks.......but the "what if" fear consumes you.

What if this.....what if that....what if.....how could I look in the mirror in the morning.

Should make for easy money for you then, Kash.

I'm not angry, FF is simply a game, just entertainment. If I lose $50, oh well. You're a manipulator, preying on the less informed. If your post was supposed to ignite me to be angry, then you failed miserably.

no not really, if everyone beats you then how is that an advantage for me? still got 12 others to worry about....and Turner/Benson can have great games the week we play....but then have the rest of their mediocre games against everyone else.

But it's not really about you, its an issue I have with the passive play style and the "oh well" attitude exemplified in Urban city poor...."It' ain't goin get better, so why try". Nut up, pound the pavement, look for an opportunity to better yourself.

Dude, that is so fricking ridiculous an analogy in relation to Fantasy Football.

Jeez people, I wasn't referencing you when I put the post up about not seeing any trade talk out there. You responded so I was merely using your team as an example. I don't have what you need, but someone else might...have you looked?

PS: Who said I was the car salesman?

Don't care if you're happy/sad/laughing/angry....I was only looking to ignite some movement....I don't know you people....so if I say something you think is an attack it's only because YOU THINK...it was too close to home.

BrTrolla needs a TE(Daniels not Ready week 1, and with all the hype around Finley (and the ability to start Keller the first couple weeks), you may be able to work something out:

Finley/HWard for Daniels/SSmith

just a thought

I was wondering when the fantasy football honeymoon would be over...

We are poliboard posters; we can be this friendly with each other all the time.

You would be mistaken. I'm quite pleased with my team. Only thing I would add is depth, and I'm not giving up ANYONE in my starting lineup to do it. Back-ups can be found on the waiver wire.

And you already F'ed up and gave away about 9-11 TD's to Cubbs. A net of about 6-7 IF YOU'RE LUCKY! Dude is a stud, and Walter was thrown at exactly ONCE all night. He is a glorified fullback playing WR.

Too much to lose when trading this early.
