7 wins got you in last year - almost guaranteed it will this year.

reason not many trades is same as any league - people want to get the "good side of the deal" - like Grog, who wants to trade 2 dipshits on his bench for a better guy

Re the playoff tie breaker- it is not listed in the league scoring section/info...I would assume then that it is whatever Yahoo considers it to be...my guess would be point total..can the league's commish clarify please ?

Huh? Isn't that pretty much standard operating procedure? Would I trade two players for one worse player? I don't expect to get a Reggie Bush for two of those players...

Dipshits? Ok...

Good luck to you.

all i am saying is you havent offered one trade that is fair - you are looking for the better side, and by a wide margin.
what did you expect someone to give you for Bernard Pierce and Emmanuel Sanders? - why would someone give you one person, worth like 10 pts a week, for 2 guys who average 10 combined... it's typical math

Moore and Sanders average 17 points a week together. Might be a value to someone...

Why give me a hard time? You don't like the trade don't make the trade. I'm not sure of the value of being obnoxious about it but you do as you please.

You were rude to PatsFan about a trade involving Brandon Jacobs and Alshon Jefferies too a couple of pages back. Maybe you see an edge in running down someone's players or someone judgement. Not a huge deal at all but on principle it just doesn't seem like supersmart strategy in life, business or fantasy football :)

So no David Wilson for you! That will teach you ;)

Maybe I'm way out of touch but you probably could have gotten him as Free Agent. It's your team I believe (Saints) so you probably have an early edge at finding potential values.

it's fine - i was just responding to why there are not many trades - it is because people make stupid offers - not just in this league, but in general.
Correct - I would not trade my starting WQ for Alshon Jeffrey and Brandon Jacobs - call me crazy

either you have bad judgement (which you do) or you are trying to get the upper hand on a one-sided trade (which you also are) - so it is a combo
i just hate that you try and defend yourself - you know what you are trying to do, just don't sugarcoat it - none of us are retards - go offer those dumb trades in your 20 dollar leagues you do with high sachool buddies

Easy. I offered you two different trades for Robert Griffin, right?

I offered you Denarius Moore and Mike Williams (before he had the hamstring issue) for Griffin. Griffin has scored 87 points in fantasy, my two guys have scored a total of 91 points. If you don't think its to your advantage then fine but it doesn't really qualify as a myopic offer. You're out of line.

And you pretty much stole McCoy so I wouldn't get too preachy about other people's trade offers that you might feel are somehow more self-serving than what is reasonable. You know?

LOL.

Ya, he really "stole" McCoy from me, considering Welker/Bernard are actually putting up good numbers since the deal (for the most part). Thought we all worked out the bitching concerning that trade a couple weeks ago haha.

Grog I offered you a deal so rather than going back and forth with these guys you wanna check it out?

Also re: Dude being rude to me....He can be as rude as he wants if the end result is him laying -250 on Gio/Welker vs Colston/Moreno for the year. Although I do agree Jacobs/Jeffrey are solid values in this league right now so not sure why he called them "2 guys I got off the waiver wire" but thats just kinda how he is.

Oh wow...Grog I'm gonna side with these guys. You do just offer straight trash.

Moore and Pierce for L Bell? L bell is a solid RB2 going forward right now.

Moore and Pierce have replacement level vlaue in this league. Please don't offer me any other deals if it is going to be anything like that.

Nobody wants replacement level guys, everyone you listed for trade is a replacement level guys. I hate to run down your players but last week you offered me Marshall for Jeffrey/Bell I counter with a similar deal and you counter with that? C'mon man. If we're all saying you need to get a bit of a grip then you probably do...

hahahahaha - Grog, you are just proving points for us.
1) you offer me Denarious Moore and Mike Williams for RG3, and your reasoning is (your 2 guys have 91, RG3 has 87) - do you see my point? who would trade 1 guy for 2 guys, getting the same points - LOL
2) offering Moore and Pierce for L Bell? LOL!

then you get defensive.
i am going to come to the conclusion that you just are not all there mentally, so will try not to make fun of you

You are right - I "stole" McCoy, b/c since i traded Welker he hasnt moved up to the #2 WR in the league..... good point

No need to be offended grog.
It never hurts to try.
It was just an observation that I said you highly value your team.

Nothing against the rules.



Im thinking of a trade.

I will trade you Kenny Britt and Phil Dawson for Brandon Marshall

2 good players for one.

Let me know

Grog - i just offered you Reuben Randle, Pierre Thomas, and Kendall Wright for Jamaal Charles.
Let me know what you think - those 3 have more than Charles combined, plus it gives you depth.
if not, feel free to counter

I see what you did there.
You saw me offer him 2 players for 1 and then you offer him 3 players for 1.

I can do better.

Phil Dawson, Kenny Britt, Robert Meachum and the entire Arizona defense all 11 starters and there backups for Brandon Marshall.

Let me know.

oof, that would really give Grog a lot of depth - well played Chop... not sure if i can top that.

however, he might think Marshall is worth Manning too - think about throwing him in there
