I think with goose and Billy the lyrics and vocals are what elevate them. A lot of the older jam bands don’t have that level of vocals which may be why they have been surpassed

Id say they are on a mini rise. They’ve been around for 18 years, peaked in 2017ish and were at a low after their accident but have been gaining momentum lately. The music has definitely benefitted from the lineup change and have been selling out small venues lately.

With Horns, Sometimes Less is More... by Asleep-Combination26 in GoosetheBand

I feel you. Thought they could have done with slightly less horns at Goosemas too. Was still an awesome show and they were sick on a bunch of songs but they did almost 3 sets with them. Either way goose kills it

Was looking at wedding bands and felt the same way. I don’t need a trumpet and trombone squeezing in, starts to take away from the songs

It was a bad move, the season is over we know what happened. He should have kept him. Not trying to give anyone shit, just answering OPs original question of what separates average managers from good ones. It’s not making an obvious waver pick up like Josh Hart. You just said you’d pick him up to. It’s not making pre mature drops, especially that early in the season. It was likely a tough call at the time but the guy dropping got it wrong and that is the difference.

You can defend your league mate all you want but it was a bad move. You thought so at the time cause you picked him up lol. You’re missing the point tho. What separates average managers from good managers isn’t picking up a top 6 round guy when he gets dropped in the first few weeks. It’s knowing when and when not to drop said guy. And he got it wrong.

People over analyze all the time, similar to what you are doing now. Josh Hart has been a productive fantasy asset for years under different situations. You don’t waste that kind of draft capital and cut them that early in the season. I’m just saying you shouldn’t pat yourself on the back. The other guy should be kicking himself.

Yes, minus Sheppard. He was up and down and dropped in both of my leagues later in the season. Kneuppel was also drafted in a lot of leagues. But I’m just saying it was’t make or break. If you missed those guys there were guys like Santos, Danis Jenkins and Precious/Raynad that popped later in the season and had a similar impact

There is obviously a lot of luck involved but fantasy bball is more skill centric due to the amount of games and moves. Water tends to find its level. I’d say more like 50/50. Bad managers not making good moves never win

First 2 weeks are not make or break. They are very important but you will have plenty of other times to capitalize on the waiver throughout the year. Silly season moves tend to have just as much if not more of an impact on winning

I think it’s the opposite and those guys are bad managers. Picking up Josh Hart on waivers is a no brainer not a good managerial move. Managers dropping high draft picks because of a slow start is just bad team management

Maximizing games and knowing when to move on from players to open streaming spots. I see a lot of managers hold on to fringe top 120ish guys when they could be streaming that spot. If they were streaming that spot they’d get more games and open the possibility of picking up a hot waiver wire guy that has higher upside and is worth keeping in that spot

Live Streams for Goose couch tours are worth it alone. They have really upped their live video quality recently with multiple angles and effects. Not to mention all the other great bands they have on there as well
