After holding the 1 seed for the vast majority of the L2 season, I'm gonna limp in with the 2/3 seed and probably lose in the first round.

Think I'm silver - I drafted the max 8 teams this year and couldn't be bothered updating about half of them so

<3 u Mr bricker

Kinda surprised I'm holding up against del in l2 considering I lost my 1st and 2nd

Jalapeño ranch admittedly has me a bit shook in the keeper. I'd be very grateful for anyone that can take him out in the early rounds of the playoffs ;)

I don't think I've ever seen a league so comprehensively dominated

The gap from 1st to 2nd in a 12 team league is more than double the gap from 2nd to 10th.

honestly not feeling very confident about my team's ability to cross the finish line.

that said, i've also never a seen a team so dominate in the standings before. all the more laugh worthy when mr. jalapeño wipes me out in the finals :oops:

Hope you are doing alright, aeris. It's good having you in the leagues and I'm glad you didn't bail.

This is the first time I've ever had a bye. Glad to have it but it feels weird not having to do anything all week.

Good luck, everyone!

Gotta try to hold my own against the legend tonybricker in the Keeper League. Ingram might be out all week, and Booker's still banged up too. Gonna be tough going.

Managed to get that 1 seed back at the last minute in League 2, so I've got to avoid embarrassment against whatabout tim before I get the right to play either Aeris or bricker (again). Luckily for me against whatabout tim, Golden State's only got 3 games this week and so I'll hopefully avoid too much of a hit from KD.

Good luck everyone. Would love to finally win one of these but I'm not exactly optimistic.

feels cool and dumb to be en route to maybe possibly winning my first go at fantasy basketball. especially when i've been solidly middle ranks for most of the season. i'm shinin.

Venting about this in here: non-HPN money league I'm in, snuck in as a 5 seed so I'm in the 4-5 matchup at the moment, I'm on track to win this week in a squeaker and go up against the 1 seed next week. The problem is that the guy who got in as the 6 seed is losing in his matchup against the 3, and he has Steph. So he dropped Steph on Thursday (the league has no IR), and then the fucking 1 seed picked up Steph off waivers this morning. Such fucking bullshit. This league is run terribly. I've been asking the commissioner to add an IR for years and he hasn't. He's also the 6 seed who just dropped Steph.

I knew I was going to have an exceptionally busy week at work this week and set all my lineups for the week on Monday, using the "set active players for the entire week" feature in the yahoo mobile app. This morning I go check whats up and and see that I am losing in both HPN leagues, and go back through the days and see that in both leagues I had difference-making players like Kemba and Draymond on the fucking bench FOR ONE DAY ONLY for some fucking reason, how is this possible when I set players for the week

I'm not going to go back and do all the math to see if I would be winning if they had played, because it would upset me a lot if they would have made a difference and there's nothing I can do about it now, but...don't trust that feature in the app

I make too many moves and always go and manually set my lineups after


true, the addition likely had something to do with it but I don't understand why a move on Monday would impact only one day of lineups, like 3-4 days after the addition

anyways, I should have doublechecked I guess but it is a bummer that the app just doesn't work like it is supposed to

I had my best schedule this week when it didn’t matter and now Turner and Nance are injured. Worried about next week!

L2 out!!

what's everyone's feeling on eliminated teams picking up players off the wire? i'm usually annoyed by it, but i kind of like the idea of beating landspeed one last time before we wrap things up :twisted:
