LoL no I've had enough Fantasy over the years.

Ran a $500 entry league across the street for years.

But it was all posters from the site that joined.
(Or was it?!?

) Joking of course!

I heard Seaweed tried this last year. He had 11 teams against a guy and still didn't win the championship.

Just messing around.

Seems like a lot of work with drafting multiple teams but I guess if the entry was large it could be profitable.

Sorry we didn’t run into each other in Vegas

**gauchojake** · 09-01-18, 05:19 PM

Every year there is some clown on 2+2 or some other 7 th tier forum who scams a couple k because no one insisted on escrow or whatever. Hadn't even thought about the angle HMan presented.

**daneblazer** · 09-01-18, 05:20 PM

Fantasy is meant to be for entertainment and comradere not some money making venture. You put up a buy in for skin in the game so that owners don’t quit

Did you play this year?

**rm18** · 01-04-19, 12:45 AM

Does not really matter unless they are making collusion trades. Main downside is no quitting teams that dont update rosters.

**stevex** · 01-04-19, 12:54 AM

Uhh okay? You still need to put up the money for those teams?

**jjgold** · 01-04-19, 06:22 AM

Never ever play any fantasy leagues

for the extreme sucker

Lmfao. The kid could run all 12 teams and find a way to lose.

**big joe 1212** · 01-04-19, 07:26 AM

This is just one of the many reasons you don’t join a league with people you don’t know

i never join fantasy leagues but have heard so many stories

**mpaschal34** · 01-04-19, 07:39 AM

Sounds like the philosophy of several BTP entrants.

**mpaschal34** · 01-04-19, 07:43 AM

You could also have the case where everyone sends betpoints to one player. He then stiffs the winners for 10 months...and right before his pro membership expires he cashes out bitcoin with people’s winnings.

Then, even though SBR knows he’s a stiff, they actually send him the money.

This could never happen could it?

**HotStreak** · 01-04-19, 08:20 AM

Easy to eliminate collusion in Fantasy League

No Trades

Standings based on total points not H2H horseshit

**USCPHILLYGUY** · 01-04-19, 08:44 AM

Interesting bump

**thechaoz** · 01-04-19, 12:06 PM

This happened to me in a league here. Some guy traded Rosen and Yeldon for Mccaffery near the trade deadline.

It was snap vetoed then suddenly a few days later put up and it got through. I know there were enough votes against it from talking to others in the league.

this is completely wrong

i thought you were smarter than this

**JAKEPEAVY21** · 01-04-19, 12:15 PM

hard to trust anyone after the astro and shaunovery stiff jobs

both were longtime posters with good reputations before going rogue

**mpaschal34** · 01-04-19, 12:29 PM

And just to think I was about to advertise a league that I’m starting next year.

14 team auction draft (on ESPN)

exactly

the elementary point you have here is.....there is a bench

and just because you draft correctly doesnt mean people cannot collude who starts/sits to ensure the "correct" people get into the playoffs

I have one league that I am involved with and it's people I know and trust. I won this year, one of the only successful gambling endeavors I participated in this football season.

**DOM_Toretto** · 01-04-19, 02:41 PM

Just tried my first ever yahoo pro league and took 1st (10-team league)

So many suckers out there that I’m sure most of these leagues are just fish, but some small percentage could be rigged like you say

**pavyracer** · 01-04-19, 02:52 PM

If you play fanstasy sports it means you are a snowflake and you don't have a girlfriend.
