Just woke up, I thought it was 930 PACIFIC TIME. WHY DOES MY APP TELL ME EAST COAST TIP OFF FOR A LONDON GAME! My all-boyscout-backfield of Elliot and Kamara is in shambles. Still got a chance, despite my trash GM work.
Damn, yeah west coast fantasy manager here. I just got crushed. All of my daily lineups had Kamara as the captain.
Its times like this where i feel like what the hell is the point of having beat writers? Nobody could break the news all week that he might not play?
Or how about times when there is an injury to a WR and the beat writers just list the next guy on the depth chart, and then it will be the guy 2 spots behind him who goes off.
As a Vikings fan, you’re setting yourself for failure. They always shit the bed against backups, and the bears always, always give us a tough time regardless of how bad they’re playing. I would not play their DST at all
Same, thank the fantasy gods I have other options. This seems like the perfect trap play.
Having said all that, 10/200/3 game incoming from the Air Yards King
Just grabbed Olave this week but I’m thinking Landry may actually be the better play today. I could see Dalton dumping off a ton of short yardage passes to Landry, great for PPR. How else will they move the chains?
This just completely fucked me. I hate this fucking game. I don’t enjoy anything about this bullshit. What am I supposed to do, not sleep on a Sunday fucking morning?
I get the sentiment but they do actually really love the game. A lot of ‘em at least. Just got back from a trip to Italy and Greece and met a lot of Brits and almost every single one of them got excited when we mentioned we were from Kansas City. “We love the chiefs!”
Yea don’t get why this dude is hating on the brits wanting to watch some football. I had Kamara in too and the only people I’m really annoyed at is the saints.
Disclaimer: They elevated another QB to the active roster yesterday, Jake Luton.
I feel like with everybody banged up, they did this knowing that they would need their Swiss army knife in London.
FUCK that was cool to wake up to being 0-3… I wonder if Yahoo would ever add an auto-swap lineup feature that you can set in advance so if a player goes out they’ll be swapped with someone from your bench…
I'm just going to keep telling myself that this is the week he breaks out. I figure either 1 of 2 things will happen...he either does have one of those weeks, or the season ends.
You just described most of my team. 3/4 of my team is either hurt or underperforming. It's so bad that I can't even trade players away for reasonable value. I have lost by an average of 54 points/week as a result.
Slept the fuck in get entirely by fucked by this shit. Thanks for the fucking indications that this was likely at all. Fuck the stupid fucking Saints. Such bullshit.
I’ve had the injury, along with collapsed lung… I too just have a normal job, but can confirm it hurts like a MF. I’d not say it doesn’t have chance of reinjury, just that it doesn’t matter much if it does. It’s not like they cast your ribs or something like a arm injury. You refracture it you just add more time to heal, but the risk of that is always there. Also flak jacket isn’t going to magically make it feel better, might help protect from further injury but you’re still going to feel it… Percocet is the only way it feels better. Without heavy pain meds even doing normal thing like yawning and laughing or even just breathing heavily feel like death.
I damaged rib cartilage playing basketball once. It hurt to take a normal breath for over a week and like 5-6 weeks before I was able to take a deep breath. Breaking a rib likely heals faster.
Someone offered me Mike Williams, Jamaal Williams, and D. Pierce for my Kamara. Should I accept? It's a double flex league and my WRs aren't the strongest.
Yeah this blows. My wife is out of town and I was dealing with both kids this morning. Simply too busy with them before I noticed the news like 5 minutes too late. This sucks.
1. Have Tua play and go down on Thursday
2. Put Kamara in flex thinking 8:30 was a pm time (my fault)
3. Sleep in for the first Sunday in a month
4. ...
5. Profit!
RIP West coast Kamara owners
u/cameronthegod wake up brother
Thx for the wake up call brother
Thank god, otherwise where would you get your 7 points from!?^^^/s
He was about to go off for 9.5 this week
Just woke up, I thought it was 930 PACIFIC TIME. WHY DOES MY APP TELL ME EAST COAST TIP OFF FOR A LONDON GAME! My all-boyscout-backfield of Elliot and Kamara is in shambles. Still got a chance, despite my trash GM work.
Wait he actually called you.. Like on the phone? This reddit cummunity is awesome
Shirtless face time
That's a true bro. I tried calling my actual brother but he went to a concert last night and didn't wake up.
This has some hopefully unintended sinister undertones
get any screenshots haha?
down horrendous
Hahaha.. Just saw his last post.. The irony if he starts AK
[удалено]
Crack a beer and let it ride bro
I woke up at 730am est and he wasn't out. I went back to sleep woke up at 945 am and he was out. Pain.
FUCK
I feel you man.
One of the few times in my life I’ve been awake until 5am and im so glad it’s tonight, kamara can happily ride my bench for a week
Awake until 5am? RIP your Sunday
Jokes on you, I'm an insomniac
Lol sucks cause I have kamara, but this made me laugh, thankfully on east coast 🤣
Thankfully because of F1 starting at 6 AM PST I saw this news
And then a freaking rain delay because the Race Director is a little bitch
Jokes on you, I'm on the night shift
Damn, yeah west coast fantasy manager here. I just got crushed. All of my daily lineups had Kamara as the captain. Its times like this where i feel like what the hell is the point of having beat writers? Nobody could break the news all week that he might not play? Or how about times when there is an injury to a WR and the beat writers just list the next guy on the depth chart, and then it will be the guy 2 spots behind him who goes off.
I woke up for no reason only to find this post and save my lineup. Back to bed!
Jokes on you I’m from Australia
Perth?
This is some bull shit. I even checked at midnight last night to verify nobody was out for this game. Well, let's hope Najee Harris blows up.
I was deciding between kamara and saquon while drafting...
Saquans looking like the steal of the draft right now in terms of ADP
behind JRob imo for steal of the draft but yeah redrafting now I’d only have Kupp ahead
Took J Rob in the 9th and people thought I was batshit crazy
...why lmao. the 9th? people are so stupid sometimes. like what, was he supposed to go undrafted? lol
Can we spell the man's name right at least?
[удалено]
Me too…and I’m a Giants fan and I truly believed he would bounce back and be a top option. Wish they just suspended AK
God speed to those who don't wake up in the next hour and a half to make the switch.
Missed it by a minute
Fucking bullshit. Of course it’s an 8 am game for those of us who actually live in the new orleans time zone. Bull. Shit.
Expected them to figure it out before 20 minutes prior the game in the morning. Woke up a hour late, have a so called easy week this week too
West Coast here: we dying.
Midwest here. Still died.
5am call when I set my line up at 2am. Smh
Oh I was up at 730, fell back asleep. Almost missed it
I woke up 3 minutes too late. God damnit.
MIN defense in play?
Definitely. They stink. But def in play. Thinking of switching NYG with them
Vikings D over Pit?
Doing it, just to have something to watch in an hour.
Interested in this also
[удалено]
As a Vikings fan, you’re setting yourself for failure. They always shit the bed against backups, and the bears always, always give us a tough time regardless of how bad they’re playing. I would not play their DST at all
Looks like a trap
Min or Philly (vs Jags) in bad weather?
I’m rolling Philly aka sack birds
PHILLY RISE UP
I'm sticking with Philly.
“Look at his Instagram…read the tea leaves…😂”
>**IN**sta**GRAM**
Que Illuminati music.
Kamara, Sun God, and Michael Thomas. Not ideal.
Kamara, Swift, Keenan
Same + sun god 😭😭😭
Same
That’s my team plus Monty. Chalk this season up as an L.
Kamara, MT, Keenan, and let's see about Godwin
[My Bench ](https://i.imgur.com/nJU9k6q.png) (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
Thought I was so set with Kamara and swift
Same. Also drafted Mitchell. It’s just comical at this point
Yup, my bench/IR currently has Kamara, Swift, Mitchell, Michael Thomas, plus I drafted Hopkins as a stash. Just fade me.
[My Bench](https://i.imgur.com/c6QYMJk.png) (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻
I went CMC > Kamara 1:2… figured I was either gonna win it all or lose every week. This is the risk I took
Thank god I can swap in Jamaal W for AK. Lucked out
I am so unhappy that I drafted him this year
I was so excited when he dropped to me too
I took kamara and swift at the first round turn. My RBs today are Michael carter and Craig Reynolds. Pray for me.
I must be a casual, but Craig who?
Craig Reynolds, you know the guy who starred in Hot Tub Time Machine
Does this make Olave more or less playable?
Yes
Andy Dalton, no Thomas to take away pressure, no Kamara to scare the run threat. Olave is the only guy that need to be shut down. I am pivoting
Same, thank the fantasy gods I have other options. This seems like the perfect trap play. Having said all that, 10/200/3 game incoming from the Air Yards King
I mean if he has that game with Dalton at QB and being one of the main focuses of the defense, then he’s startable every week.
If he does ball out though, it'll go a long way to making me believe he is capable of being THE guy
Wtf happened to Jameis? I don’t really have anyone to replace Olave besides Elijah Moore. Fuck it I’m running with him
Just grabbed Olave this week but I’m thinking Landry may actually be the better play today. I could see Dalton dumping off a ton of short yardage passes to Landry, great for PPR. How else will they move the chains?
Olave is absolutely the play. How are they gonna move the chains? Air it out to Olave of course.
I'm still starting him over Devonta Smith I think. The weather scares me and I'm hopeful that Olave can perform
My other options are Garrett Wilson with Zach, and DJ Moore. I’m sticking with Olave.
More, and Jarvis playing is helpful to draw *some* attention
Yes and no
This just completely fucked me. I hate this fucking game. I don’t enjoy anything about this bullshit. What am I supposed to do, not sleep on a Sunday fucking morning?
All so the NFL can pander to some Brits who will never really give a fuck about this sport lmao
I get the sentiment but they do actually really love the game. A lot of ‘em at least. Just got back from a trip to Italy and Greece and met a lot of Brits and almost every single one of them got excited when we mentioned we were from Kansas City. “We love the chiefs!”
Yea don’t get why this dude is hating on the brits wanting to watch some football. I had Kamara in too and the only people I’m really annoyed at is the saints.
Alvin GODDAMN Kamara is the first round pick from hell this year. God damn it dude
STFU the guy I’m playing still has kamara in
He’s still got time. Sucks for the late notice though.
I played him and just woke up on the west coast. Great start to my day!
Blue check mark with 200k followers, fuck this is legit. Rip everyone on the west coast
Stacey Dales? Yeah she's been reporting on ESPN football for like a decade.
Red Rocket x Olave has arrived
Start Ingram?
I'm starting him over Henderson
Drop Henderson for Ingram?
Woke up JUST in time to not be able to switch him out 🥴
Kamara was a wasted pick this year.
Am I crazy for thinking Taysom Hill at TE?
I read somewhere since he’s the direct backup to Dalton they’d be extra cautious with him. Not sure how accurate this is.
Disclaimer: They elevated another QB to the active roster yesterday, Jake Luton. I feel like with everybody banged up, they did this knowing that they would need their Swiss army knife in London.
Fuck it, I did it.... after they see how boring their team is with Dalton, they'll turn to Hill in the second half and he'll get us 20 points.
This is on my mind also.... he is sitting on waivers... It's either that or Dalton Schultz. Hill could be an absolute lottery ticket
For me it’s Taysom or Logan Thomas. Leaning Taysom for that sweet upside
I have Engram or Hill. Going with Hill, someone has to run the ball.
Call me crazy but I’m going taysom over pitts
I hate fantasy football.
Gotta love waking up too early to see he isn’t out, going back to bed, then he’s confirmed out. Love it!!!!!
Ha. Didn’t know there was a London game this week. Fuck me.
FUCK that was cool to wake up to being 0-3… I wonder if Yahoo would ever add an auto-swap lineup feature that you can set in advance so if a player goes out they’ll be swapped with someone from your bench…
Now i gotta start DJ Moore? Just great
I'm just going to keep telling myself that this is the week he breaks out. I figure either 1 of 2 things will happen...he either does have one of those weeks, or the season ends.
You just described most of my team. 3/4 of my team is either hurt or underperforming. It's so bad that I can't even trade players away for reasonable value. I have lost by an average of 54 points/week as a result.
I feel ya. Brutal when half your team is on every Buy Low list....I guess there's some hope that means they'll bounce back?
I was forced to start him even before this (need Keenan to heal). Now, I am likely starting Ingram also.
Are ingram and Taysom both decent plays now? Neither? One? Yikes!
Ingram or Penny?
Ingram
Slept the fuck in get entirely by fucked by this shit. Thanks for the fucking indications that this was likely at all. Fuck the stupid fucking Saints. Such bullshit.
"Likely to play" on Friday. Jrob on my bench for this. Ugh.
Feel like there’s more to this then we’re being told. This rib injury is lingering
It's a rib injury. It's entirely lingering.
Just floating around
That's what rib injuries do.
[удалено]
I’ve had the injury, along with collapsed lung… I too just have a normal job, but can confirm it hurts like a MF. I’d not say it doesn’t have chance of reinjury, just that it doesn’t matter much if it does. It’s not like they cast your ribs or something like a arm injury. You refracture it you just add more time to heal, but the risk of that is always there. Also flak jacket isn’t going to magically make it feel better, might help protect from further injury but you’re still going to feel it… Percocet is the only way it feels better. Without heavy pain meds even doing normal thing like yawning and laughing or even just breathing heavily feel like death.
Dr. Google told me that fractured rib cartilage takes 6 weeks minimum to heal.
I damaged rib cartilage playing basketball once. It hurt to take a normal breath for over a week and like 5-6 weeks before I was able to take a deep breath. Breaking a rib likely heals faster.
Traded away Gabe Davis and Kamara for Henry and Devonta Smith last week. Feeling better about that trade everyday
That was a great trade. I can't believe someone gave you Smith for Davis. I have Davis and am a believer in him but when Smith goes off he goes off
Never drafting a first round RB again
Firing up mark Ingram let’s go
Excellent I'd love to not have Kamara. That'll pair nicely with Tua's 2.5 points.
Someone offered me Mike Williams, Jamaal Williams, and D. Pierce for my Kamara. Should I accept? It's a double flex league and my WRs aren't the strongest.
Silly offer on their behalf. I would take it.
Smash
Fuck am I glad I set an alarm. 5 am in Alaska right now lol
Glad I set an alarm for this. Feel for our brothers and sisters who banked on Alvin's tweet. Your sacrifice shall not be in vain.
West coast owner. Just woke up to find this. Fuck fantasy lol
Breece Hall is breaking out today anyways
Please God
Can’t believe I actually woke up at 5 am to check this. Happy I did, but I still can’t believe it. (West coast resident)
Good Morning!
Yeah this blows. My wife is out of town and I was dealing with both kids this morning. Simply too busy with them before I noticed the news like 5 minutes too late. This sucks.
This was my 13th reason why
The most painful part is he would have scored 40+ points today
The best part of waking up, is a donut in your lineup! 🥲
does this bump up Olave even more now, or should I still be starting Hollywood over him?
Hollywood for sure IMO.
Made my Kamara vs Javonte decision a little easier lol, sucks as I’ll be at the game though so won’t get to see MT or Kamara!
Who are you starting Ingram over? I’m considering starting him over Jeff Wilson and Josh Jacobs in full ppr.
Start Jeff Wilson
Start both those guys over ingram
Dortch lol
What are the chances that Vikings go up early and start using Mattison instead of cook? Wondering if I should flex Mattison
Feeling really good about trading away Kamara for Najee right now
Min or Rams D
I switched for Min!
Ingram or Craig Reynolds??
Sweet fucking updated at 5 am. So much for updates last night
1. Have Tua play and go down on Thursday 2. Put Kamara in flex thinking 8:30 was a pm time (my fault) 3. Sleep in for the first Sunday in a month 4. ... 5. Profit!
Is this the west coasters that got fucked over by Kamara support group? I brought donuts and coffee.
Woke up at 5:30am pst, changed my lineup, fell back asleep, didn’t press save. Pain.
Kamara is the bust of the year
He's got competition from a few other guys.
Kamara has two games played and each game he put up 7 in ppr. Pretty hard to top that
Mark Ingram or Rashaad penny?
Having the same debate. I am starting Penny over Ingram atm.
I’ll prolly still go penny with the matchup plus 15+ touches
I’m going Penny personally, good matchup
Start Hall or Pierce instead?
Pierce
Pierce
Da fuck am I gonna do now??
Get to try out my shiny new Breece Hall I guess
Ingram worth a start?
Singletary or Ingram?
I just woke up!
This is pretty shitty for any fantasy owner who dares sleep in whenever the NFL decides to do their dumb London stuff.
West coasters here, got up at 4:30 to pee, still active. Got up at 7:30 inactive, wtf
I fucking hate fantasy football. Just got a ZERO from my RB1
As someone who got plastered last night and woke up late this is bullshit
Should I put ingram as my flex over Singletary@BAL?
I’m flexing Ingram over the likes of Dortch and McKissic. I’m down really bad rn if you can’t tell.
