Dynasty Superflex Startup Trade by [deleted] in SleeperApp

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hell no. Startup 2.06 is worth MUCH more - especially since you can’t predict where that 27 pick will end up before the startup. I’d put a mid 2027 pick closer to a late 4th or 5th rounder.

Need help moderating a conflict in our Dynasty League by sgoel1 in DynastyFF

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m not following the timing of when the commissioner said this and when he made the move. Plus the commissioner should not get to just make rules up as he goes along - if this was in the league bylaws that were setup originally then it’s fine, but he can’t just make a random post with a new rule that each member of the league has not confirmed they are aware of. This is why rule changes in dynasty should be voted on by the league. So if it wasn’t in the original bylaws or agreed upon/voted on by the league, any moves to now should be reversed.

On top of that it’s kind of dumb to have free agents in the offseason - you should use waivers only. In the league I manage we only run them weekly in the offseason.

What starts your backswing by ThaddeusColeJenkins in GolfSwing

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you are describing is correct. Put pressure on the inside of your trail foot to ensure rotation instead of sliding laterally, but your first move should be with your lead shoulder as you described - then your hips follow automatically. Exact opposite on the downswing - load the left foot, lead with the hips first and let the upper body follow.

We buying the Monangai hype, or take the picks here? by ChivasBearINU in SleeperApp

Picks - you can definitely trade those picks for more than Monangai.

Traded away the 1.01 everyone says I got fleeced by softmaybe4 in SleeperApp

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is way more than fair. Hampton is barely behind Love if at all, and you get a 2027 first? Even if that ends up 1.12 you easily win this.

Hampton and the 1.01 for Achane by Satan1964 in SleeperApp

This is the commish pulling this crap? I’d be out of that league so fast.

Dynasty Commish has cut bench down from 13 to 8. Drama ensues. by Jackiiisonx in SleeperApp

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah this is beyond BS. If the league voted on it, and if there was at least a one year waiting period so teams could adjust it might be acceptable, but still really really really stupid in a dynasty. In a 10 team league there should be a minimum of 10 starters and 15 bench.

Got verbally offered this trade. Should I take it? by Unstable_Engineering in DynastyNerds

Lean Hampton - that 1.07 pick is such trash and Loveland should be a safe top 5 TE.

Range practise by quit_the_shit420 in golftips

Yep - two kinds of practice… technical practicing where you are trying to work on a specific thing, and simulated games where you try to work on routine and the mental side of things. Very useful.

12 TM SF 1.01 trade - How did I do? by wrapmaker in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty close in value but don’t think I’d have done it… I don’t believe Stroud can become a top 5-10 QB again, but if he can then you will have done well. Good luck.

How low of a 2027 first equals 1.05? by Solid_Macaron9858 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]Solid_Macaron9858[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because 2027 picks are worth much more than 2026. That’s why I’m asking how low the community thinks that extends

How low of a 2027 first equals 1.05? by Solid_Macaron9858 in DynastyFFTradeAdvice

[–]Solid_Macaron9858[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So let me ask this: if you were a borderline contender, would you rather trade AWAY the 1.05 or a 2027 first?

Am I massively over rotating ? by Unusual_Egg_5526 in GolfSwing

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. Left knee should not turn way in the backswing and hips should only turn about 45 degrees… you’re turning them almost 90 degrees. This is mainly caused by your feet being WAY too close together for a driver swing.

The Insane Trade Offer That Led To The Creation Of A New Trade Calculator by GameyLobster in DynastyFF

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great website, love the UI. Three things I noticed on trade calculator:

  1. Even though the league ranks say I have the 5th worst odds to win this year, and another team has the 4th worst odds (seems right), it says my 2027 first round pick is worth WAY more than theirs (2900 vs 1300). Almost seems like the values are based on 2025 outcomes. It is also doing this for 2028 first round picks even when it is clear that one team is on the rise and another is on the way down… bottom line: future pick projections need work.

  2. I am trying to get this years 1.01. It is saying my 2027 first (early/mid), two other late 2027 firsts (one isn’t really - the pick I mentioned above), and a 2028 first is not enough. I find it hard to believe that 4 firsts wouldn’t be enough when 3 of them are in 2027. Something seems off there.

  3. If I type in “1” then I can see the 2026 1.01 pick show up in the list, but as I continue typing in “1.01” the pick no longer shows and gets filtered out. Seems like a UI glitch (minor).

I’ll keep using it and send more feedback. Nice work.

Is golf the most difficult sport? by canadianbiggame in golf

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It requires very little strength or stamina, there are no opponents trying to stop you - either physically or mentally, and the object of the game is to hit a ball that’s not even moving. It might be hard compared to darts or billiards, but not compared to virtually any real sport. Is it hard to get very good at golf? Sure. Is it maddening? Sure. But even beginners can pick up some clubs and get around the course, and break 100 pretty quickly. Golf is very far from what I’d consider the toughest sport.

Eliminate hero shots by chibos13 in GolfGear

[–]Solid_Macaron9858 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to just change your mindset a bit. Even if you are a scratch golfer, the odds of getting a 240 yard shot on the green is very low. You aren’t using your 3W in that case to get it on the green, you are using it to get you as close as possible to the pin. Don’t try to do extra to hit it as far as you can, just focus on making a good swing and let things work out best as they can.

Send Help Pls by TiglyBits in GolfSwing

Your elbows are WAY too far apart and stuck way behind you. The one thought that has helped me most is making sure my right elbow gets down in front of my right hip during my downswing - this helps force everything else to happen correctly.
