SDMB FF Dynasty League: Year Three

Fightin’ Quakers, I just saw your trade offer and rejected it since I saw it involved Brees and I didn’t have enough time to make a decision on such a big move right before tonight’s game. We can look at it or another offer after tonight’s game.

Sorry I didn’t see it earlier, that Yahoo email I have gets so full that I usually just check the league itself for trade proposals.

Jordy Fucking Nelson.

Oh dear.

Damn. Beef is going to be talking about that performance ALL YEAR.

Could be worse. Brees and Jennings alone put up 53 points against me in the Super League.

I have no idea where you get this stuff. You’re always talking about stuff that I’m talking about constantly for months that I actually only mentioned once.

Dude, you love to harp on stuff. Maybe I’m exaggerating a little, but you do do it.

What would I be harping on? What great point would I be proving by pointing to Jordy Nelson’s week 1 performance over and over? This is just like your non-existant “constantly harping on how good my TEs” thing, when I said once and the end of last season and once at the beginning of this one that I’m looking to trade them.

That was me exaggerating. But you declare your team “the best team on paper” at least 3 or 4 times a season. More when it’s actually true (to be far, you really did dominate the Big League last year).

And the TE thing was Stringer (http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=14003962&postcount=6). Or maybe that just proves other people have noticed it. :wink:

It just means you’ve all created this idea of my behavior that isn’t actually seated in reality, or you could find the posts where I’m doing what you say instead of just finding posts by other people saying I do it.

I’ve never said my team is the best team on paper in this league, I’m actually always talking about how shitty it is. In other leagues, I may rank my team highly when I’m comparing all the different teams in the league (specifically in the big league someone said no one could compete with Varlos’ team, but I thought I could, and compared them), but then… I was right. I was the top scorer in the all pro, auction, and big leagues.

Beef, are you really trying to say you don’t harp on stuff all season long? Really?

Even if your “Jordy Fucking Nelson” post wasn’t a direct callback to your “James Fucking Jones” posts all last year – which it clearly was, btw – you still harped on Jones all year long.

I’m saying the things they’re saying I’m going to harp on are nothing like the things I actually do harp on.

He’s saying I’m going to be mentioning Jordy Nelson’s performance tonight all season long. Why? What’s in it for me? Similarly, I mentioned tight ends once at the end of last season (because I was inviting trade offers) and once at the beginning of this season (because I was inviting trade ofers in the new thread), and yet somehow that gets me OMG BEEF YOU NEVER SHUT UP ABOUT YOUR TIGHT END!!! reactions.

We argued about James Jones over a few posts, so it doesn’t make sense to say I’m harping on it when we’re having a back and forth discussion about it. I did make one or two joking references to it when he had a big game.

But even so, as a callback, it’s self depricating if anything. It’s a joke, ffs. I was the one saying James Jones was going to be the Packers receivers to own, not Nelson, so it makes no sense for me to brag about Nelson in the same way. It indicates that I was wrong.

Of course it’s a joke. That’s why I made a joke about your joke.

And it looks like I’m definitely not alone in thinking that way about your harping.

But I still love ya Beefy.

Hahahahah never change, Beef.

And after all that, I’m in with a shout: need Reggie Bush to outscore Davone Bess and the Oakland D by 7 to knock off Beef.

Man, my team sucks ass. It’s going to be a feat to ever get this thing back into contention.

Here we go a-fucking-gain. My starters perform shitty while my borderline cases, who I leave on the bench, score a shit-ton of points.

At least I can hold out hope that Deion Branch is still Brady’s favorite target this year.

No worries. Let’s wait a couple weeks and see where things stand then.

You inherited an iffy team with few starters and not much upside; not an enviable position. Of course drafting Naanee over Dez Bryant, Dexter McCluster over Sam Bradford, and Jabar Gaffney over Ben Tate probably didn’t help much.

Worse yet, I inherited a really OLD team. And yeah, I certainly didn’t do much to fix it last year. Last year I went short term in hopes of competing, maybe I learned my lesson this draft.
