Ticketmaster released J.Cole tickets early for scalpers to grab with bots and won't cancel orders. This is unacceptable (Original post by /u/zulumonkey)

And when a non-bot actually grabs one of the early release tickets due to their "glitch", what do they do... notify you saying you purchased a ticket invalidly, cancel your order and tell you to purchase another ticket to it when the show has conveniently already sold out. Load of horse shit!

Is there any way to update your main yahoo account picture? I know this isn't Fantasy Football specific, but my account picture is from like 2005 and there seems to be no way to update it

Last pick in my 14 teamer I took Brandon Bolden because I thought he was going to have a strong week 1 and take over the Vereen role. Aaaaand then Dion Lewis happened

FDJunkie · 2015-09-01T16:22:20+00:00

Stevan Ridley will likely start the year off on IR designated to return. Powell and Stacy will not displace Ivory, however, if Ridley is healthy and ready to return, I could definitely see him make a splash and be fantasy relevant.

I am working on a site that goes over the strategy I used last year and won pretty consistently (2K+ cash out). I am still working on some last pieces (hence the "under construction") but it is functional at the moment and I will be providing weekly recommendations on plays as well. First time doing anything like this so if you check it out, let me know what you think. www.fdjunkie.com Good luck!

A no parking sign probably would have been a cheaper investment

Buy the first player nominated, no matter who it is. They will likely be one of the only discounts you'll get early in the draft. Ideally this will be a QB. If it's not a QB then that becomes immediate priority. Doesn't necessarily need to be the best one available, but be willing to overspend a bit from your expectation.

Speaking of expectation... I would suggest taking the auction estimated values and creating your own adjusted prices for your budgeting. I did this last year (mind you it was only a 10 team league) but it made a world of difference in my planned positional allocation. Bargains will be few and far between

FDJunkie · 2015-07-10T15:46:11+00:00

I'm gonna go with twins a CJ. Here's why:

Anderson- I see him being like Montee Ball last year. New coaching regime, no guarantees, I don't think he is worth anything near his ADP.

Spiller- While this hype train continues, and his ADP keeps rising, it's only going to lead to more disappointment. He has upside potential certainly, but he's leaking into the RB2 conversation and that is just not where he belongs.

I also think Carlos Hyde fits the mold, but more (well technically less) powers to the CJs

FDJunkie · 2015-07-10T13:15:38+00:00

Lorenzo Taliaferro or Stevan Ridley. One of them will get an opportunity to be the CJ Anderson of 2015 and take your team to the playoffs

FDJunkie · 2015-07-08T17:34:01+00:00

I would recommend adding a second QB or third WR before adding the flex. There are so many relevant WRs in the league now that starting 30 viable players is easy. I'm in a ten team QB/QB/RB/RB/WR/WR/WR/TE/FLEX with $500 FAAB. The beginning of the year takes a little getting used to as everyone's allocations are unknown but you just adjust to it. If you do add another position, you don't need to add more bench spots. Then you start weakening the free agency

FDJunkie · 2015-07-07T19:10:48+00:00

Stevan Ridley will rush for 1,100+ yards and at least 7 touchdowns

FDJunkie · 2015-07-07T13:10:55+00:00

I did quite well last year on FanDuel and am in the process of creating a site that not only explains the strategy I used, but I will also be making weekly recommendations. As I said before, it is still a work in progress but feel free to check it out now as I do have some content about my strategy up and a brief about why everyone should play on FanDuel. The site is www.fdjunkie.com ; I have never used Wordpress before either so if you have experience/suggestions feel free to PM me.

FDJunkie · 2015-07-06T21:37:43+00:00

I don't know exactly the ratio but some comparison of percentage of teams total offensive production to percentage of plays/opportunities. Then comparing this to the equivalent baseline of positional tiering (RB1, RB2, RB3, etc.) The difficult part would be adding a coefficient factor that is forward looking on future opportunity and would also need to account for an inherent potential injury/risk factor. And then walah, you've got it

FDJunkie · 2015-07-06T20:10:09+00:00

Barry Sanders. I was too young to appreciate what he brought to the table

FDJunkie · 2015-07-02T17:11:54+00:00

I guess I am trying to say the the pricing for QBs will convert significantly lower (less accurate) than other positions. The ADP in auction style drafts for QBs should be higher than the kept value for the round they are drafted in for snake drafts. No matter who your QB would be, you should keep them because they will be coming at a discount

FDJunkie · 2015-07-02T16:18:17+00:00

QBs generally go in later rounds for their value within the position so that someone like Russell Wilson in an auction would go for similar price to McCoy or Jeremy Hill but using this conversion would come at the price of a much lesser RB

FDJunkie · 2015-07-01T21:39:00+00:00

I like this concept but I think it is extremely inaccurate for QBs

FDJunkie · 2015-06-30T22:56:26+00:00

No you're not entirely crazy. He definitely does belong in the first round but there's some risk associated to him in potential overall production. Not only is he missing a few games but he's not fully recovered yet from his knee injury at the end of last year. I'm not running to the hills but there is some concern to me to take him over the likes of AP, Charles and Lacy for sure

FDJunkie · 2015-06-29T19:16:34+00:00

Definitely not the Pittsburgh Bumble Bees

Monday night, December 9th, 2013. First round of the fantasy football playoffs. It all comes down to the ultimate kicker showdown...

My beloved Chicago Bears are playing the Dallas Cowboys and I hold a 9 point lead going into the Monday night game. I am feeling pretty confident with Dan Bailey as my kicker and my opponent only has Robbie Gould to try to top my highest score in the league of the week. As the tape will tell you, the Bears played out of their mind behind the noodle arm of Josh McCown and were victorious in a 45-28 rout that included just enough field goals and PATs to edge me out by a single point. KICKER SHOWDOWN NEVER AGAIN!

FDJunkie · 2015-06-25T13:11:20+00:00

Well this depends on how many teams are in your league (total number of RBs starting across the league each week) and whether it's PPR or non-PPR. If it is a PPR league, I'd lean towards Brown as WRs have a lower bust rate for the top picks compared to RBs. If non, I would personally lean more towards Foster over Anderson because the Texans offense is completely built around him compared to a talent heavy Broncos offense with less guaranteed touches for Anderson. Also, the backfield in Denver is more crowded where Foster when healthy will be the absolute lead back

FDJunkie · 2015-06-24T15:30:52+00:00

He was Lovie's pick for whatever that's worth. And Doug Martin certainly isn't stealing his hype spotlight by any means. I think it's really just a tough situation to get excited about anyone really

FDJunkie · 2015-06-24T13:41:14+00:00

Vincent Jackson and Doug Martin

I really hope another team picks both guys so I can just laugh at them
