I'm with the league.

In 2020, with Covid, I think a one time exemption would be fine, but going forward I could see coaching staffs being stocked with players to protect them from being grabbed off waivers/practice squads and so on.

Jeremy Chin just had the most amazing 10seconds a defensive player may ever have had. Two fumbles recovered for TD.

Also, why are the uprights crooked in Minnesota?

I had Gibson go for 31 Thursday and Hill go for 48 today. Everyone else was standard, but I should have played Ekeler instead of Chase Edwards. My opponent had Brady, Evans, and Henry. He still has one more player to go Monday night, Reagor, who needs 37 points to beat me. Not a total impossibility against Seattle's defense. It'd be much closer if he had started Amari Cooper and his 21 points.

I'm the highest scoring team this week and he's the 4th highest.

Is it a worse week when you lose as a low scoring team or when you lose as a high scoring team? I'm thinking the later.

Broncos think they were used as an example by the NFL.

Considering how several others teams have had games moved around, yet the Broncos were forced to play on schedule, it's hard to argue otherwise.

49ers can't go home for around 5 weeks.

3 week ban plus 2 week quarantine. I hear they're going to play in Phoenix.

I'm winning in fantasy by 23 points. But, all my players have played. My opponent has 5 players left, and should win easily. But 4 of those players are in the Pitt-Ravens game.

Ravens-Steelers kicks off at 3:40 p.m. EST Wednesday because NBC committed to the Rockefeller tree lighting that night.

Ravens-Cowboys and Steelers-WFT kick off at 5 p.m. EST Monday.

Fuller banned for rest of the season.

I traded him off my team earlier this year for Gibson if I remember correctly. The league's top team has Fuller, so that's win-win.

Right now, our fantasy league considers the Pitt-Bal game to be a bye week, because it moved to Wednesday. So I suck! My opponent is Malcolm, lolollolol. I imagine this will get fixed, but it's still funny.

ESPN fantasy just extended the week, so the game still counts for this week.

The Ravens vs Cowboys game is next Tuesday. Why the fuck is the NFL bowing down to the Ravens?! This gives them an extra day rest, the Steelers have to play on Monday. And according to Schefter the Tuesday game will allow Lamar Jackson to play where if the game were on Monday he couldn't play.

This is complete bullshit! they made the Broncos play with some practice squad WR at QB, but giving the Ravens every brake they need. And where are the draft picks being taken away from the Ravens?? this better happen too, cause other teams were already penalized and the Ravens have had the worst break out of any team thus far.

I've also read conspiracy theories where Harbaugh was purposely holding back releasing players on the Covid list one day after another just to force the NFL's hand and give them extra time.

I can't wait till the Steelers kick their ass and then i can't wait for the Browns to put them outta the playoff hunt 2 weeks later.
WORLD CHAMPIONS!!
