Purest baseball is on, the LLWS these kids aren't worried about money or have egos. They just want to win.

Anybody go the 0 RB route in PPR leagues? Thoughts?

I’ve never been a zero rb guy. But I lean on WRs more than I used too.

Games are won in the trenches!! Lfg

I mean, if everyone else is shooting for the quick 2+ RB meta, then the natural counter is the opposite to exploit their sheep movement.

It's really about tapping out info on who they like, what they plan to do to counter the league meta...if there is one.

Overall risky, but could be a huge payoff in the right league. If I'm in a position where I haven't had time to properly research pre-draft or simply feel outclassed in $ leagues (been in both situations), then I'll try an exploitative strategy. Otherwise, I go back to Game Theory Optimal meta and try to find my alpha in the cracks.

Seems like that's the route Tex is going with.

I like the idea especially if picking in the back half of the first round

Not sure I ever suggested his coach be sued, though i do remember others suggesting that. A lawsuit seems silly. The coach didn't hold him at gunpoint and make him go out there. I do think it was reckless and potentially threatening to his future to tax his body that much and expose him to unnecessary wear and potential injury by running him 40+ times a game. I still believe that.

You can disagree. I knew it was a matter of time before you'd join the fray to drink his bath water in this conversation. Not sure why it's your life's mission to defend his honor when I've never said a bad word about the kid. And I'm not even saying he can't make an impact, now. But here you are, projecting your negative opinion of me over a discussion of his high school usage as if I'm currently saying the kid is a bum not worth his scholarship.

I'm also not sure why you're obsessed with me and my opinion. If you don't like it, use the ignore feature. I'll lose not an ounce of sleep over it. Ironic that you'd call me the child whilst stalking my posts to dredge up a two year old conversation.

I also remember you making up stories to cast me in a negative light...."swampfoxfan probably", a very childish thing for you to do.

Making up stories about you...lolololol. I'd love some examples for a good laugh, today. Are they saved to your desktop? Printed and taped to the bathroom mirror as daily motivation, perhaps? They must have really scarred you to be so keenly at the ready in your memory bank.

Today was the last practice open to the media before the first game.

I could care less about this chick in general my issues with the mockery she made of the whole process.You have some folks that put there heart and soul into breaking.Then finally after decades if tryin it breaks onto the main stage,but then all that hard work is dismissed by this bozo and her floppy fish act.

In the end the whole event was overshadowed by this crap and there was some very talented breakers there that got dealt a sh*tty hand.I mean had she not looked like a bullshark having a seziure on a beach the other dancers might have gotten there proper credit and we're looking at breaking in a whole different light.She may have very well set the sport back a decade with this stupid crap!

I wouldn't be surprised if they remove it from the next Olympics after what she did. . .

So you’re basing it on how he looks standing on the sideline.

We can do the usual "underrated" or "diamond in the rough" stuff without diminishing a guy who was part of one of the most successful RB rooms in at least 25 years, and ran his butt off for UT.

I was actually standing in the middle of the field about 5 yards away from him every snap but you can keep trying to diminish it if you want.

Where did I diminish anyone? I simply said they are at least the same level of player. That’s a good thing because Small was a solid back. Nothing special but he did his job.

 

[VolFreakJosh]

Kiffin may finally be passed the damaged goods phase. He had three programs with everyone associated with them saying he is a lowlife POS. Anyone from administrative staff to boosters associated with Tennessee, USC, and Bama all have nothing positive to say about the guy. That’s hurt him in getting a high profile job anywhere else.

I just can’t see the reasoning on why Kiffin is talked about so much around here considering the positive direction Heupel has this program heading?

He’s an ok HC but lots of folks around here hype him up as the next “Best thing” when reality, he’s been nothing but a man child stirring up drama everywhere he’s been. Like, what’s the appeal?

He’s been gone for over 10+ years now and we still have posters making threads about him. Do you think it’s past time we’ve moved on from the guy?

It’s comical at this point.

 

[VOLLeeann]

Eventually, Kiffin will seek greener pastures. My guess is sooner rather than later.

Florida?

No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't get a grade better than a C in math. I asked my math teacher if he had any advice. He said, yeah, just face it, you're very average.

I personally think that's very mean!

Think imma bet Harper and Duran to hit HRs.
