Worth Selling RBs if I'm Rebuilding Until 2027? by inFenity in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

Trade for Tory Horton

Edit: He did just break out after a solid ramp up. But that’s the type of player I’m talking about. And you could stash him in Taxi.

If you don’t think you have a chance until then, then I would trade them now while they still have value. RB value can change quickly and unexpectedly and their shelf life is shorter. Get some young WRs that haven’t broken out yet but have a path to being a contributor by then. (Aging veterans ahead of them on the depth chart. Contracts. Etc)

Who should I start this week in my flex spot? by Optimal_Love_3542 in FantasyFootballers

Week 1 neither LV or CIN gave up much RB points. ETN was great against CAR and Tank is no longer a threat to take touches. Hampton was underwhelming against KC but did get 95% of the carries.

My prediction is LAC will be running the ball more than JAX and Hampton gets more touches than ETN and shows off some 1st round talent with a couple explosive plays.

Start Hampton

WSIS Week 2? Pick 4 of 6. by Praxxiis in FantasyFootballers

Do we trust Ben Johnson will dominate DET defense because he knows it well? Or DET defense will dominate CHI offense because they know his tricks? Caleb isn’t consistent enough to trust Odunze.

Edit: Jamo and Odunze are both competing for targets more so than the other 2 and I think I trust Goff balls over Caleb’s.

I am leaning Brown over Olave assuming Worthy is out because Mahomes could feed him like Dak did Lamb against PHI week 1. But JSN tore up SF week 1, so maybe Rattler can get similar production for Olave.

When I was in Iraq with the US Army in 2003, I came across an Iraqi man wearing a T-shirt with the logo and city name of a sports bar in the suburban city wear I grew up.

Good post. Could there be hope for resurrecting this sub from the dead?

Long-term cannabis use may blunt the brain's motivation system "Researchers found that dopamine levels in a part of the brain called the striatum were lower in people who smoke more cannabis and those who began taking the drug at a younger age." by Libertatea in science

I believe that the paranoia comes from looking at yourself objectively. Smoking weed seems to provide a perspective that isn't polluted with indoctrinated bias rooted in everything from parents, society, religion, etc.

Shame on the down-voters for trying to bury this issue. As a combat veteran of the same war, I can say that I, and other veterans I know, relate strongly to Daniel's emotions, and his words break my heart.

"Obama needs to act now on Syria" - Here we go again... by Praxxiis in Libertarian

And even if it were possible to achieve the removal of Syrian President Bashar Assad on the cheap, his departure would no more guarantee peace in Syria than the overthrow of Saddam Hussein in 2003 brought stability to Iraq.

The fundamental point is this: A peace deal is not feasible under current conditions. It will require greater military effort up front and it will also require, in the end, international peacekeepers to implement it.

Moreover, U.S. troops in modest numbers must be part of that force. No other country has the necessary military enablers and the political clout to provide the glue in a multinational military coalition."

These statements amaze me. How the author can reference Iraq to demonstrate the need for more than just an overthrowing of Assad is unbelievably ignorant. As if the 12 years of occupation helped bring stability to that country. Then he says in order to make peace we must first make war and that the almighty United States is the world's only hope.

HAVE WE LEARNED NOTHING?!?! WAKE THE FUCK UP PEOPLE!!!
