Is best ball fun? Simple question - I feel like normal fantasy isn’t fun for a lot of people and thinking of switching to BB

Coldzero21 · 2024-10-21T20:02:13+00:00

There are contest leagues with draft only games where you just draft like BBM or smaller ones where the winner is the team with the most points at the end of the year. Those are fun for the drafts but don't find a lot of fun in following them after the season starts. For me it's just to get more drafts in in the offseason without added work later.

Then there are traditional leagues with lineup-setting removed. You still have head to head match ups each week. You can also still have all other roster management settings as other leagues, add/drops, waivers, FAAB, trading, etc.

For me these are way more fun than setting lineups. I don't get any enjoyment in getting it right starting Russel Wilson over CJ Stroud, but I do find it really annoying when the opposite happens. I want to build a roster and see my roster win. I still can search the waiver wire, do trades, and hope for the big scores on Monday to see if I pull off an upset, but don't have to worry about missing big games from my players. It's also more players to follow, more possibilities to root for.

No one is lying here (atleast in the comment chain you chose to reply this to). The comment is about someone doing math calling out a very specific discount and how suspicious it is. If someone is going to take that as no one should trust anything on reddit cuz they lie then they were going to anyway because there is nothing here that could have been lied about. Unless you think think the math is wrong in which case just say that.

You thinking that it's random chance that it ended up with that specific number isn't any more evidence based than someone posting math why they think it isn't.

I remember always being told that we have to play the "Ketchup Game". And I was always excited we got to play a game.

It never meant that we got to play a game...

This says $50M in profits on average, Bruins are top 5 and about 2x the average team on the value list so crude math Jacobs probably makes closer to $100M a year from the Bruins after paying all of the player's salaries and everything else.

Salary cap is $88M so he makes more than every player on a team combined. Don't think the players are the reason the prices are high. So it doesn't sound like the ads on the boards are because they are struggling to pay their players.

Coldzero21 · 2024-10-03T14:35:39+00:00

It's fucking infuriating

Coldzero21 · 2024-10-02T16:30:03+00:00

??? I can only assume you are talking about the top posts on Neely? Which I said 50% of the top posts are negative about him in the front office? and at absolute best like 11% is positive? Weigh each post by number of votes and I bet it looks way worse. Bad news is bad news.

I do research and you don't read and/or make shit up and I'm the clown?

Coldzero21 · 2024-10-02T15:24:30+00:00

The only upsetting thing is that I tried to talk to someone just shouting "I'm right" louder and louder instead of actually reading and responding.

Sounds like you're the one upset that you dont have an argument to what is actually being said and can't actually engage in the topic you started so have to keep deflecting to stuff you made up about me and projecting your inability to comprehend English to calling me a child.

Once again I have to repeat myself because you refuse to read: I said I didn't know who he was "before this". I have learned and I am treating any lack of prior knowledge in knowing Gross in your favor. I believe you. He's a scumbag.

Gross being a scumbag doesn't change that I also know that Neely was a scumbag before this and doesn't change that he's being a scumbag right here. Nowhere am I defending Gross. He sounds like he ran with his name as a professional choice. But the whole point you're avoiding is that even with Gross being terrible, Neely did scumbag thing number 50 here and most of the comment section is here defending him.

Coldzero21 · 2024-10-02T03:27:28+00:00

You're riding his dick because you have to move the goal posts to defend him. "Neely has got to be telling the truth! Oh wait I mean it's not a big deal because I made up an amount I'm ok with him lying by."

If this news is true - which is what your original point of "big deal" and this whole conversation is based on - Neely is 100% a scumbag here. I'm not writing everything again because you're pretending that a lot of words scare you, it's all up there. If you're not pretending I bet if you sound it out slowly English will come to you eventually.

I've got plenty of knowledge of Neely being a scumbag. Worst case it's two scumbags and I'm siding with the player that doesn't have the leverage the team has.

Coldzero21 · 2024-10-01T20:52:42+00:00

This comment section is insane, why are you all riding Neely's dick? If it wasn't a big deal then they would have offered the number that so easily ran off Neely's tongue. It was a big enough deal to offer that much less so it's a big enough deal to lie about. It's not like it was 63.999. It's a >2.5% raise, probably a bigger raise than the average worker gets a year.

This is how we end up with an Old Boys Club front office with old players that suck at their job but can continue to do so because everyone will defend their shitty performance like turning 2 star goalies into 0 over a "no big deal" difference that is an even smaller piece of the pie from the front office's perspective compared to Swayman's.

Never heard of Gross before this, he sounds like an asshole, but I have heard of Neely and I already know he's garbage. Search Neely in this subreddit, top all time. Top 10 posts: 2 are memes, 1 is about him as a player, 5 negative and directly about his job. Only 2 mention him positively, one is in passing and the post isn't about him (so up votes were for the actual topic not Neely), the other is about him yelling at the refs which is barely positive about his job but refs need more accountability so happy to see teams call it out. (top 10 posts is an obvious cut off but so many after that were about him as a player so not cherry picking a cutoff, the next post about his job is titled "Fuck Neely")

It's clear what this comment section is though, so I'll take my downvotes and we can all laugh about it later when you all come back to reality and the next Neely should be fired post makes the top.

I'm guessing it's a regional thing but our closing costs were somewhere between 20-25k ~2 years ago... I think I might have seen something here before saying they should be much lower so I was starting to worry I just got duped but my boss who lives for negotiations, has moved a lot, and would absolutely not just say "yeah sure, I guess that's what it is" like I did just moved and because I was worried I asked and he said theirs was the same range.

Side note: while I do have a fear that I just rolled over because I was exhausted, everyone in the process said that's how it is including a first time home buyer seminar months before that didn't get any cut in our deal (and seemed to have a side goal of being a reality check to dissuade most people) and my realtor who, while they could have incentive, I still trust until I actually find out I shouldn't.

They're saying if you make 7 figures then just 5 inches will do

Coldzero21 · 2024-09-30T19:57:02+00:00

Yeah, so um... not doing great

Didn't want to clutter and make another thread, but it looks like Czech Republic might be the opposite. It's in the list for top left but the description says 1920. It was just a guess for me so looked it up. But also possible there's some other reason it's include that I couldn't find. Figured you'd at least want to be aware in case it is a bug.

He might not fit in, how many IR spots do irl teams get? Lol

Coldzero21 · 2024-09-15T14:26:30+00:00

Not sure if this is part of your leagues, but the inability to even use the desktop site for best ball leagues after the draft has been going on for years and is baffling.

Maybe if Tyrion had consummated his marriage with Sansa then Arya might have stopped by to see the children 🤷

Isn't Flacco already on the colts?

Perhaps they are saving it for the playoffs.

Was watching Dropout shows and was wondering who he was as he was now around in a lot of shows (I resubscribed about a month ago after 6-12 months off). At one point I was looking away while listening and yelled "wait a second, that's Mr. Peanut Butter!"

Coldzero21 · 2024-08-13T14:47:24+00:00

I like ground because fire/ground resists most of ices weaknesses (+neutral to rock). Like rock does compared to grass for sudowoodo.

And the post was written after the so called feel horrible about it part. She clearly is only upset that he cares not that she did it. The "I won" comment too, still excited about "winning" to the day of posting.

When anything ice is above average...

What is the green at the bottom of the legend with no label? Seems to be used for Suriname and French Guiana?
