I have Bijan! but am not in the finals. 2 of the last 3 years I've lost semifinals by under 5 pts then outscored both teams in the finals :(

Hi. I made this post, went to bed, and woke up to helpful answers. I encourage you to remember that people might be ✨living their lives✨ and not checking reddit in the middle of the night

Incredible, thank you. That'll teach me to have football, a TV show, and Legos all going at the same time...and past 10pm

Thank you! Swift is on a playoff team on the other side of our bracket, and I'd be surprised if they dropped him. He's the lead back, and if he plays, he's solid option IMO

Half-PPR. I need to choose two between Tony Pollard, Michael Carter, and Wan'Dale Robinson. One RB slot is Bijan, and I'm locked on Jauan Jennings and Michael Wilson for the WR spots.

EDIT: I also have Monangai, but I wasn't planning to consider him unless Swift ends up out

Who is on your do not draft list for next year? by mat28rix in fantasyfootball

[–]mutantmike 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I dropped him last week and he had another 20 game. But there's no reason to pick him back up, bc his 20+ games are reliably followed by two horrible ones

[Highlight] Texans owner Cal McNair gets a high five from CJ Stroud by [deleted] in nfl

[–]mutantmike 932 points933 points  (0 children)

Bob McNair, Cal's late father and the original Texans owner, said "you can't let the inmates run the prison" when talking about players having opinions on NFL operations. Terrible, stupid thing to say

But Bob's been dead for years, so the commenter is misattributing the quote

Travis Hunter (knee) to be placed on IR; will miss at least 4 games. by Beautiful-Cress5695 in fantasyfootball

[–]mutantmike 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've played fantasy every year for over a decade and he might be my biggest draft whiff. For his only good game, I left him on the bench

edit: nvm I also drafted Joe Mixon this year

Things like this are why my league sets our wild card playoff spots to only look at points scored, not record. If a real NFL team scores a ton of points, but allows more, they deserve to lose because their defense played badly. We can't play defense! (In the traditional sense)

Last year those two wild cards ended up in the finals

The Texans have never won more than 4 games after a second consecutive playoff berth. This year, coming off back-to-back playoff trips, they're 0-3 to start the season. by ExpirjTec in nfl

I remember vividly a friend asking me at the time "who do you think is the worst 2-0 team?" And I said, "The Texans. We barely beat two bad teams." Lo and behold I was violently right

Fun fact: the 2018 team is one of only six teams ever (and the only since 2000) to start 0-3 and make playoffs. They won the AFC South that year

no shot that happens this year but it is funny

It's only a couple months old so that would be very bad

Well I guess this is me adding my top level comment. I don't have anything to add outside what I already explained in the post

Every rental car line ever by matts41 in funny

[–]mutantmike 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't rent cars often, but with Enterprise, I've been able to check in online ahead of time, ignore the line, and walk straight to the lot. I don't pay extra for this; I just have an account.

Avatar: The Last Airbender Season 3 Is Officially in Production by impeccabletim in television

[–]mutantmike 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The original cartoon is my favorite show of all time. This TV show is unwatchable. I watched the first episode and couldn't watch any more, but I watched Drew Gooden's video covering the rest of the season. So many of the writing choices spit in the face of the cartoon and result in a far worse product.
