@DireWolfM14, @wheelz. You have very good insights and understanding of the NFL. Would it be possible if the 2 of you can share your thoughts and what might be your predictions on some of the games for week 7heheheeh.
Giants prediction was correct, thought on Greenbay Packers also correct! On the Giants I would agree because they have only 1 loss for the season and they play against the Jaguars. However, I was shaking my head on the prediction on Greenbay. I thought if Greenbay loses, it would certainly be not against the Commanders.

Giants +3 on road against Jax
That actually seems like a good deal to me, I can't imagine why the Giants would be underdogs in this game. Bookies often give the benefit of the doubt to the home team, but the Jags have been so inconsistent so far this year. I don't know what sports book your using, but SB currently has the Giants handicap set to +3.5 @ 1.76. That might be the best underdog deal of the weekend.
Packers - maybe... Do the commies even have a QB this week?
Commies, lol! Almost as good For-Skins. I like the GB in this game, but only by a field goal. I think -4.5 is a bit excessive. Not that I think the Packers aren't capable, but they too have been rather inconsistent, and I never like a large handicap favoring an away team.
Need some weight in help here. Looking at tomorrow's games and I'm stuck on 3 away teams but that is never good. Thoughts on the below bets
Packers -4.5 on road against Wash
Giants +3 on road against Jax
Houston +7 on road against LV.
Which one you guys think Def needs to stay and which one I should dump. (I'm a Homer giants fan so I think that is definitely getting bet)

I wouldn't bet on Houston. No rush defense to speak of vs my boy Jacobs...

Christian McCaffrey traded to 49ers in blockbuster deal
I heard a rumor that this might happen, and totally blew it off as nothing but yet another pipedream for Niners fans. Another thing that really surprised me was his contract, 4 years $68m... That seems like a real bargain for the Niners, even with the three draft picks they traded. Will he be on the Niners' roster this weekend? The article didn't say. Regardless, I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl.
LOL just my luck... anyone wants a very good but now slightly useless niners RB? Who may or may not play by week 11 and may or may not get dumped into some other team.
Once Elijah Mitchel is back, the Niners will be back to their normal routine of Running Back Committee. Obviously CMC will make a huge impact, but I wouldn't expect him to put up fantasy numbers like he did in Carolina.
The first rumors were the Bills were asking for him. The next rumors a few hours later were confirmed that the Rams and the 49ers were serious for a trade. But it appears 49ers offered something more for the Panthers to accept it.
There are some people who say he might play, others speculate no. I might put him on the bench for this week.
Also, I agree with the argument that he might get fewer touches, however, he might also have greater touchdown potential with the new team.

Lol “slightly useless” might be a bit of of an understatement. I own McCaffrey in two of my three leagues, and I’m happy and all about the trade, but I was really hoping he was going to be picked up by the Buffalo Bills. Can you guys imagine if the Bills added CMC to their roster. It would have easily put them over the top. Niners are definitely a solid landing spot for CMC owners however.
Honestly that is probably one of the best case scenarios for cmc owners. Niners are known to like to jam the ball. Cmc will get a ton of touches and opportunities especially with Jimmy behind center. If Lance was still qb I'd be weary. I have eli on IR I guess he will be useless once he comes back
I am going to the waiver wire to find another running back. The chance that he might be in IR has increased hehehehe.
You didn't really have a chance, I would have taken him but Hollywood went down so I had to move my WR claim up instead.
Everyone else is stacked with RBs up to their eyeballs.
And even when you think you are stacked you realize you do not have enough RBs, just this week I had to drop Robinson Jr, Conner is out, Sanders is on a BYE and the other Robinson in my team went from 1st RB to 2nd RB, it got to the point that for the first time ever I am starting a WR on my FLEX position, and this is coming from me which selected 3 RBs on the first 3 rounds, so the quest for moar RBs never really ends. Everyone else is stacked with RBs up to their eyeballs.

If that actually happened we may as well give them the Lombardy already, they are playing really well and except for that weird loss against the Dolphins they should have been undefeated so far, if you added McCaffrey they would be unstoppable on offense, or at least even more unstoppable than what they are right now.

I can't believe none of my players scored a touchdown, 11 carries and 37 targets between Kamara, Olave, and Hopkins, and zero touchdowns in a 70+ point game, you can't be fucking serious???
They did put up most of the offensive yardage though!
Jeffery "My Name is Jeff" Jeff Wilson Jr. is looking for a new fantasy owner/home! 
Buddy fumbles against the Falcons, and the Niners trade for McCaffrey less than a week later. I had no idea they still had picks left, gave a lot to get Lance, but good for them anyway. I'm surprised the Panthers didn't move him to the AFC though.
High-scoring TNF game for a change!

Perhaps but I care most about
- age of token
- scarcity of supply
- aesthetics
as communities and hype come and go. Besides, I already swore off CryptoDickButt talk, nice try to rope me back in.
To bring things a bit back on topic, I think I am gonna proceed with my football team token sale, need to get everything in place and just sell the tokens w/o attaching copyrighted images to them. Once everything is good to go, I'll give everybody in the league 1 token of their favorite team for free. You just need a BTC address for which you own the private key or preferably a Counterparty BTC address so that way you can someday move the token if you want to.
The reason why they are special and will sell is b/c they are from one of the first Counterparty token projects, ever. There was only a handful of token-based projects prior, and mine was the first one that had to do with gambling. Ergo, "historical." Just being 8+ years old also gives them some value, but since there's a legit story behind it, they will fetch a premium over other tokens issued in the same era.
edit: also, I won my bet, woo! I'm now 2-for-2 calling Thursday night games. Next week is Ravens vs. Bucs, should actually be a good game

Took Arizona at home to cover -2.5 tomorrow... Deandre Hopkins is back for the Cardinals, although they are out Marquise Brown... after placing the bet I saw most of the pros were actually picking Saints to win... "pros"... what do they know.
Literally half my team has a bye week this week, and for some reason Yahoo won't let me push the little "+" symbols to add new players. Even if I can make the changes its looking grim. Guess I'm resigned to taking the L.
Wow, they're hideous, thanks.
I get it that some people think on-chain generative pixel stuff is pretty cool, but to me its all aesthetically unpleasant to the point I would never buy them... everything from CryptoPunks to Dooggies... if anyone knows those references. Even I as Shitcoin Captain have to draw the line somewhere.

I have observed that many of the most successful NFT projects were not about their artwork. They were about community and the shared storylines or shared narratives behind the projects. They were also about identity and addressing how people express identity. An example of this is a project called Cryptodickbutts with pictures of pixelated worms and dicks on their butts. Their shared narrative is have fun and do not take anything seriously. It appears many people agree with this and identify themselves in this narrative.
I can try to make the changes for you if you want and cant get it to work.
Thanks for the offer -- I ended up just making the changes via the mobile app. All is well and I upped my win chance to 33%!
One drawback of stacking one or two teams is the buy weeks and yours are on the same week!
Yeah lame move on my part I guess but it does make watching my teams play pretty exciting.

Running back Gordon III of the Denver Broncos? I would trade him if I still have Cam Akers heheheeh. He is clearly much better choice. I speculate that Akers might never play for the Rams again.
I think Akers is just done, Melvin is in the doghouse and I wouldn't be surprised to see him traded.
Which actually might increase his value as Denvers run game has been shit...wait so has their pass game.

Does anyone need a competent wide receiver in their team as a flex option or a WR2? I want to trade Tyler Lockett for another wide receiver with similar points projections. I was looking at the waiver wire, however, it appears not one wide receiver is available who is in his level.
Amusingly enough I've cut 3 of the 4 Wideouts directly under Lockets expected season totals and the one I didn't cut hasn't played a game yet!
So you have a pretty good field to choose from if you want to drop him.
Above him I would not target Thomas or Cooks but the rest seem like an upgrade...Hmmm actually I think I would want Cooks over Locket.

Anyone want Gordon???
He's a gamble right now so I'm selling low.

It also appears that the Rams are asking the Panthers about McCaffrey. The 49ers are also asking about him. Between those teams I want him to go to the 49ers hehe. It might be their pass to the playoffs.

I don't wish JUJU on anyone...
Wasn't my first choice either but I'll keep him as a bench warmer for now, just in case I don't find anyone better before Ja'Marr goes on vacation.
The waiver wire is slim pickens these days. I'm pretty thin on quality RBs and WRs, and even my best ones don't seem to be enough, so I've been keeping an eye on waivers. I'm hoping Kenyan Drake makes an impact. I wish I had been more patient with Rhamondre Stevenson, and now I get to face him this week.
