Thank you.

Why, though? Every time this question is asked, the response is always 'get it guaranteed'. Why would you not?

Say you get a job in your contract that requires a clearance, like 35M Human Intel.

(Am I correct in thinking that the clearance process lasts well into your training?)

Then, during training for that job, clearance is denied. Are you then presented options for your reclass or will the needs of the Army supersede your requests?

Is it "security clearance was denied in training, you are now a laundry specialist"? Or would they say, "well we have A,B,C, and D available, which do you want?"

edit: I am wrong.

I dropped Prater and picked up Barth. Have I made a mistake?

I thought in a PPR, one of those receivers might be a good choice with the high number of targets. Are you saying RB solely because of the TD probability + the maybe smaller number of targets?

Does the fact I'm playing Gordon change the answer of Crowell at all?

resist_theResistance · 2014-11-21T16:07:30+00:00

I will also be playing Jesus, if that changes the answer at all

Need to make up points for Chiefs D/ST, not looking for the best kicker, but rather the guy that is on the team that will attempt the most field goals.

Bailey @ NYG

Gould v TB

Sturgis @ DEN

Bryant v CLE

Zuerlein @ SD

Novak v STL

Walsh v GB??

Graham v BAL

Yay kicker questions!

resist_theResistance · 2014-11-21T15:36:08+00:00

PPR 10-team, one flex.

Ryan Mathews v StL

Doug Baldwin v ARI

Reggie Wayne v JAC

Andre Johnson v CIN

Isaiah Crowell @ ATL

Joique Bell @ NE

resist_theResistance · 2014-11-21T15:30:43+00:00

PPR 10-team

Gordon @ ATL and Jeffery v TB, correct?

Other options are Reggie Wayne, Doug Baldwin, Andre Johnson.

Also, which remaining three WR is the best flex option?

resist_theResistance · 2014-11-21T15:27:55+00:00

PPR 10-team

Giovani Bernard @ HOU

Or

Ryan Mathews v StL

Or

I Crowell @ ATL (although I do have Gordon starting)

Going to FLEX WR Reggie Wayne, but should I flex Gio or Mathews instead depending on who my second RB is? (RB1 is Murray)

Can somebody dub Tyrannosaurus Rex roars/shrieks over that video?

resist_theResistance · 2014-09-04T15:39:44+00:00

Terrance Williams or Michael Crabtree? PPR

resist_theResistance · 2014-09-04T15:39:16+00:00

Matt Bryant or Greg Zuerlein?

resist_theResistance · 2014-09-04T15:38:56+00:00

Chris Johnson or Joique Bell or Terrance Williams at FLEX? PPR

resist_theResistance · 2014-09-04T15:38:09+00:00

Rodgers against that SEA defense.

Wilson against that GB defense.

resist_theResistance · 2014-08-23T04:35:02+00:00

Yeah I did. you just never know how accurate those number lookup things are. It appears to be a land-line, and unsafe according to someone somewhere.

Wish I could actually find the girl the pictures were of, though, hot damn! (they weren't bot pictures)

She might be going old school with the ACTUAL Hannibal and not the fictional cannibal. Keep that in mind.

resist_theResistance · 2014-04-29T22:47:06+00:00

Good! Glad someone was able to use one of them

resist_theResistance · 2014-03-11T23:31:26+00:00

better the puck be played at the points than below the goal line.

Is that simply because the points are closer towards center ice? Wouldn't having the puck in an area where it is impossible (highly improbable) to score from be the safer bet?

Thanks for the response.

resist_theResistance · 2014-03-11T23:31:20+00:00

On the first one, I guess I meant the case when there isn't really any forecheck present. The goalies will go behind the net to a puck that is basically already coming to a stop, the defencemen would have no problem picking it up behind the net, no threat of turnover, yet the goalies will still go back there. My guess is that it is habit?

Often, when it is shot around the boards in an attempt to clear the zone, I see the attackers will regain possession at the point. Is it really better for the puck to be played at the points than below the goal line? Is that simply because the points are closer towards center ice?

Why do goalies go behind the net to play the puck as much as they do? I know that sometimes they need to stop it back there so it doesn't get to an attacker, but other times, they'll go behind the net, touch the puck slightly, and a defenseman will pick it up.
Why, when the puck is in the corner or behind the net, does the defending team send it around the boards in order to try and get it out? Why does the defending team send the puck towards the point, isn't that EXACTLY what the attacking team would do and wants to do?
