Christian McCaffrey traded to 49ers in blockbuster deal

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.

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.

OK that's the last time I'll bring it up, I promise.  Cheesy

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.

@nutildah. This is worthless, however, you might like this if only to look at it hehe.

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%!  Cheesy

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! Cheesy

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???  Cheesy


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.   Cry

Doomed to see the future and unable to prevent it
I almost didn't even bother to put it in there thinking I didn't have a chance!

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.

Depressing having a solid team and being 1-5.

I hear yah, I look at my team and say damn its stacked and then look at my 3-3 that I have been struggling to get too!

BTW, kicked Gordon to the curb, can't believe I got Brian Robinson Jr.  with my waiver pick.

I almost didn't even bother to put it in there thinking I didn't have a chance!

You never know what you are gonna get on the waiver pile.  Last year when it was 8 teams you only needed the waiver when one of your guys went down with a long injury.  As you get to 10 and 12 it can make or break your season.  Good pickup wash seems to like to run the kid.

Getting waiver 1 for being in last place was fun last year, I wish we had kept that, it gave me hope even when there wasn't any! Cheesy

Thomas would probably be a fair trade being that we just don’t know if / when dude is finally going to come back. If he does come back and stay healthy, he’s clearly the better option, but the trade would be fair since we just don’t know how his injury situation is going to play out. Same thing with his QB Winston, he’s a big part of Thomas’s potential.

Depressing having a solid team and being 1-5. Still not over that loss lol

Alright I did it.  Laid a bet on my ny giants.  +5.5 at home, if they don't win I think they can keep it close today.  But then again I laid a bet on them so here comes a blowout loss lol.  Enjoy the games today and good luck in ff all!




CONGRATS !!!

BOOM!!

My Homer pick hit lol.  Never expected that ending what a game.  They have an easier schedule coming up but that's when the giants will take some losses.  At least it won't be Halloween amd the giants are already unwatchable like the last 10 years.

Now in ff my te finally showed a little fight lol.  Lots of ground to gain bit the season is still young Smiley

Tonight's game should be a good one.  Leaning chargers but unsure with it being in mile high.
