Haha, this league has a good sense of humor!




Oh man there's all sorts of really great league loser deals that I've seen over the years that are hilarious.  One of my favorites is making someone spend 1 day at an iHop (breakfast/lunch diner) but every pancake they ate took 1 hour off their time.  Another is someone going to an open mic night at a comedy club, unable to tell them why they are there doing it, and do a 10-15mn comedy set lol.

Then the game of thrones shame - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONEpPY1HynY

Well here we are, it's offically playoff time no matter what league you're in.  How in the fck did time fly by this fast?  I appreciate ya'll in this league..everyone's cool, does a good job with setting lineups and what not..glad to be apart of it.  So cheers to that (lots of fighting/bad actors etc in other leagues I'm in).  I may not have made the playoffs but I got closer than I did last year lol. 

Ended up making the playoffs in 4 of my 6 leagues.  Play Hhampuz in the semi-final in our other btalk league.  Dropped like 145pts and had a monster of a game..10pts less and I'd be looking out.  So US vs Sweden this week..but I think he will prevail, he's just due.

Best of luck to those whom made the playoffs..will be watching closely.  Cheers ya'll.

If this is really Tee Higgins' mother, no one should mention anything bad about her son in social media heheeheheh.





Kind of weird timing tweeting this when it was Higgins best week of the year.

I shared it because it was a funny tweet from his mother hehe.

Similar to @nutildah, I also say congratulations to everyone who entered the the playoff! I reckon everyone will play again next year?

Also, @DireWolfM14! Good prediction on the Seahawks. On the 1st half, I thought the Eagles would win. However, the 3rd quarter was where it began to change for the Seahawks. It appears if the Eagles continue to have these performances, the king of the NFC will be decided by 49ers and the Cowboys.

Sucks to end the fantasy season with yet another L.

Oh well.

Congrats to the playoff makers.

These last 2 weeks are gonna be lit. Teams that need a W for playoff purposes are gonna be trying extra hard, might place some bets around that premise.

@ChiBitCTy. Were the Bears +3.5?

On the Eagles vs. the Seahawks, might this be the opportunity to bet on the Eagles with only -3 against the spread? This might be -7 or more if they did not play consecutively against the 49ers and the Cowboys which arguably are contenders for NFC championship.

Man I hate how berried this thread always gets.  Crazy that that's just how busy this sub is

Anways, I saw the bears around -2.5, but it could of been 3.5 closer to the game.  Either way they lost in lovely Bears style fashion lol.

There's a lot for me riding on tonights game.  If AJ Brown scores 10 or more points I'm in the playoffs in the other btalk league, where our pot sits around $2,200 or so.  Scored 145pts this week too, my team went over, and despite losing Burrow and Chubb, my team is rock solid.  So yeah, trust me when I say Brown wont have 10pts because of me lol.  Just watch.

I think the main thing here is Jalen Hurts may or may not play. He pays I'm smashing that bet.  Talkin smack to his mom, def not cool.

Couldn’t really find much that I liked betting on today.  I believe the falcons were -2.5 versus the Panthers. Snag a little action  We will see how that one turns out.

This Bears Browns game, what a snoozfest.  Best of luck everyone who’s still in contention this week !  Mf Tonyan drops a TD as Im typing. What a throw too ugh, alright I need a smoke break

@everyone. On the Broncos vs. the Lions, what is everyone's prediction? Do you reckon can win against the spread on -4.5? This might be Detroit's chance to start another small winning streak hehehehe. The Broncos offense is not very good and Russell Wilson might not be very trustworthy. Their run defense is also not very reliable.

The game will begin in 1 hour.

Broncos are improving every week so it should be a close game as the Lions D has been going down the drain and Goff has been looking bad under pressue again. But the Lions run game is still great and Broncos D vs the run is weak.

I wouldn't put money on this game.

I came to the same conclusion as Hueristic, it looked intriguing for about 1.8 seconds.

Both teams have been close in their final scores most of the time so any given week can go either way.  And since it's an interconference game, there's even more uncertainty.  I wouldn't touch that except for some props, maybe.

I think the best bet of the weekend is the Seahawks ML.

I am terrible at Fantasy Football!!!
Yuck, what an ugly selection I picked out there.  How the fck did the Titans beat Miami and my Bears beat Detroit.  I guess it is as you say Wheelz, had I bet on the Bears, no question they'd have lost lol.  
The injury of Tyreek Hill early on had a huge effect, and even if he came came back on the 3rd quarter you could tell his ankle was an issue.


Well, after last weeks win I go to 8-6 but it looks like I've been eliminated from the playoffs if I'm not mistaken.  Frustrating as I'm 8-6 in my other big yahoo league and it looks like I'm shit out of luck in that league too.  Is it next year yet??  Cheesy
Taking into account all the injuries your team suffered you did extremely well but this season was too top-heavy, with the best teams being just too dominant and running away from the rest of us from the get go.

Pretty crazy that we've got just two weeks left until the playoffs start.  It's insane how fast the NFL season flies by.

Here's the games I like for tomorrow..

Tampa Bucs +2.5 Falcons   - Just feel like they've been playing well lately.
Detroit Lions -3 Bears-  My Bears suck
Miami Dolphins -13 Titans

There's a few other games I like, but these are the 3 I feel most comfortable with at the moment.

And that's why i can't bet on or against my giants.  If I bet against them they win, if I bet on them they lose.  It's not like this in other sports but never fails with my giants.  With that being said I can't figure out tonight's game even if I would touch it.  The other game I feel like it's a betting trap game but still threw some sheckles on Miami.  They should annihilate tonight.

Definitely a crazy week on the NFL, beginning with the win of the Patriots over the Steelers, I knew Zappe could get us a win or two and should have kept Jones as a starter, the Vikings beating the Raiders with just 3 points on the scoreboard, the impressive win on OT by the Ravens with a punt return, the Cowboys beating the Eagles convincingly or the Bills getting the win over the Chiefs with a ‘controversial’ call according to the Chiefs, the only conclusion I can come up is that there is not really seem to be a clear favorite to win it all and any given Sunday you could see the underdog beating the favorite, seeing as there is not really a team that is as dominant as on the previous years.


And when it comes to our Fantasy league, while still not official I would like to congratulate the four managers which made it to the playoffs, you deserve it and good luck to you all.

For the first time since Week 5 I'm actually pretty happy about my lineup. But I won't go into depth about it lest I jinx myself.

Its been all downhill for me since this post. I've been on a freakin' 4-game losing streak, and I'll likely lose this next game as well -- not that it matters anymore. I truly did jinx myself.

In any case, getting away from that whole fiasco, we have some exciting games still yet to take place through the rest of the season.


I almost said something earlier in the season and bit my tongue so as not to jinx myself!
Nobodies more superstitious than a gambler! Cheesy


I am contemplating if I drop all my players in the waiverwire or continue playing to avoid ending on the bottom hehehe.

Yeah, I'd probally neg trust you for that. Wink

In any case, I predict the Jets and the Raiders will beat the spread, both with +3 and Mahomes will win against Josh Allen hehehe.

Really tough making spread calls this year for some reason, ml safer.

Also, who is everyone's MVP for the regular season? I reckon Dak, however, I know everyone might be on Purdy.

Stroud, Purdy, Mcaffrey are all good candidates off the top of my head.
hope a Cowgirl doesn't win!

For a playoff picture, I'd like to see Dolphins vs. Chiefs in the AFC and Eagles vs. 49ers in the NFC.
