Re: Best/Worst Trades in recent years
Worst In 2011 1.01 and 1.04 for Peyton Manning After which he went through surgury and used up bench space for the entire season 2012 not sure if he would really be able to play, I traded him for 1.11 (I got Kendell Wright) and Percy Harvin. Kendall Wright never left my bench and Harvin sat on the I...

Re: Josh Gordon gets off on technicality?
The Post is entitled "Josh Gordon gets off on a technicality" You could equally say about his Suspension JOSH GORDON GETS SUSPENDED ON A TECHNICALITY. After the facts have been laid out, there is certainly no reaslistic basis for such a long suspension based on NFL history of suspensions, ...

Re: Josh Gordon gets off on technicality?
At 1.09 what guarantees do you have? He passed 70 tests in a row, I think he makes it. I could be wrong, but if I am right I get some real good upside. If all things being equal, I would rather take a chance with Josh Gordon than settle for a Kendall Wright. It is chancy, but I think it is pretty sa...

Re: Josh Gordon gets off on technicality?
Ohio requires all drug test samples to be negative for the employer to take action. In Gordon's case only one was. I think Gordon has a legitimate argument and has a legitimate shot of playing although I am preparing for him to be suspended a year. This is just incorrect, having to do with how the ...

Re: Josh Gordon gets off on technicality?
Has anyone ever been put away for a full year due to a pending DWI? If you look at the history of NFL suspensions, a One Year suspension was very rare and only used on more serious infractions, until this year and last. Koren Robinson had several run-ins with the law for alcohol abuse, but was fina...

The NFL eventually prevailed in the Star Cap case. The Williams eventually served their suspensions.
I am not sure why you feel the Williams case suggests otherwise?

Re: Make a Trade of Stand by Principles
People act weird all the time. It doesn't help you to hold a grudge. If your going to be in this league for a long time, you might as well get along with the guy and accept him for who he is. If you like the deal take it, he is probably still wavering and may pull a Lucy vs Charlie Brown on you so a...

Re: Rate the team in my signature
Watch the waiver wire for some injury fill ins at RB. You appear to be over concentrating on youth and wide receivers, you could use some studs in your line-up. A lot of your players wont be contributing until 2016, by then you will be cutting them to make room for new rookies. You should have a gre...

Re: Deandre Hopkins
I used my 1.06 pick last year on Hopkins, and 2.06 on C Michael, I hope I don't need them this year, but I would love to see either or both break out.

Re: Josh Gordon gets off on technicality?
A collective Bargaining agreement supersedes State Law. I would live for this argument to hold up, and the NFL appears to be under pressure to settle, or they would have just rejected the appeal. I have Gordon in both of my leagues, and I would love to see him play. We could see the suspension delay...

Re: "Dynasty Kickers are pointless"
My first team below is scoring only. The kicker is an important part of the puzzle. Most of us still drop our kickers, except for the most reliable. In our game, if your kicker or your QB is replaced in a game, you get his points plus the points of his back-up filling in. Obviously just for that gam...

Re: Cruz or Alshon?
I would not be surprised if Cruz outscores Alshon this year, but I still prefer Alshon I'll go one step further and say that Cruz WILL outscore Alshon this year in PPR, given that both are healthy. In a dynasty, I still want Alshon very easily. I don't even think I'd sell Alshon for Cruz/1st. I'd n...

Re: I Got To Thinking Today
Who did you pick after Keenan Allen and Jimmy Graham? I don't see any 4th, 5th or 6th round talent on your team. I am guessing you got Gerhart and a 2015 1st for Ball and Anderson. It's good you got an extra 2015 1st, because I don't see you going too far this year. I don't see those rookies on your...

Re: Oh No Blackmon
Come on man, this is weed we are talking about. Isn't it a consensus among the scientific community that weed is not the slightest bit addictive? I don't think you're trying to be rude and it seems like you just don't have much of a science background, but this is very wrong and I don't want this id...
