    I use paypal venmo zelle.....Thanks for posting. Though how do they know it's for fantasy sports? I use paypal a lot to send and receive money

     

    This time of year they're on the lookout for 8-12 similar-value payments from different people all within a short time frame. And if one of them puts anything related to fantasy or football in the description then it's another red flag. Payouts are easier to disguise.

     

    I got flagged for this a decade ago on PayPal (who own Venmo) for a March Madness pool. They saw all the buy-ins, froze the funds and then warned me about using their platform for gambling. I had the ability to proceed anyway as long as I denied the allegation, because they believe they've taken care of their gambling liability via the warning.

    That’s my question too. I prefer Zelle because don’t trust Venmo (and hate that Venmo transactions are public) but will tell everyone to leave the memo blank when sending the $.

     

    All my Venmo transactions are set to private as the default, so I don't show up on anyone's feed. Trust is another thing, though.

    Bruce Arians steps down - moves to Front Office

    Arians probably had another heart attack. It's why he retired from AZ the first time, and isn't it why he wore the contraption on his chest? He's a great HC. Yeah, he's had QBs, but he took the same roster Pagano couldn't do anything with to the playoffs.

     

    Unless he's lying, I think he said it wasn't due to health?

    Yep. It was very underwhelming.  When the cameras came on, he smiled and acted excited for a few seconds.  But he's here for the money and chasing another ring.

     

    Media could have fluffed this up a bit but they were showing Von's true colors which I prefer. He's clearly trying to play it cool and not seem too excited. He probably thinks he knows how this all works and doesn't want to come across as a wide-eyed, star-struck rookie. That would be beneath him at this point in his career.

     

    My take is that he wants to be seen as the veteran leader (and he is) that will be known for keeping everyone focused on what's important, which is why as soon as he arrived at LA he plopped a Lombardi trophy on the table to remind everyone every day to keep their eyes on the prize.

    Don't feed the troll. He's the worst and he knows he is the worst.

     

    Bills fans don't need to defend Sean McDermott. His record and what he has built in Buffalo stands by itself. Anyone who doesn't see that is clearly deranged or just trying to sow discord.

     

    I actually like it. If everyone agreed on everything, especially the hot button issues, I would think there's something wrong with this place.

     

    With that said, if you think he's a troll the best course of action is to not respond whatsoever.

    CB in RD 1 it is.  

     

    Solid possession slot WR

     

    I remember Beane said he didn't plan to take all those lineman so early on in the last draft. He went BPA because he didn't feel there were dire needs and didn't want to miss out on that talent.

     

    Is CB a dire need now? I personally think it is, but in the first round I wonder if he'll go for BPA on his big board no matter the position. If he feels like he's reaching for CB I just don't see him doing it.

    How do you post a new topic anyway? When I hit the "+" button "The Stadium Wall" option in the drop down won't highlight as a "topic" to post to. I assume it's user error. (Sorry this is off topic). Thanx.

     

    Sounds like TBD has decided they don't want to hear what you have to say.
