PromoTheRobot Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 (edited) Real football talk isn't enough. Let's add PRETEND football talk to the mix! I get why these nerds get on radio. Shows are long and you have to fill them with something. But no one really knows what players are going to do this season. No one. I don't care that you picked up Shady McCoy for $2 in a late round of an auction draft. You might as well be telling me how many nose hairs you have.

DJB Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I'd say the professional basket weaving championships are slightly more boring! You either love fantasy football or you dont. Pretty simple. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Schopp/Bulldog get a guaranteed switch to Pandora from me when they start talking about their “moves.” Prolly mostly filler for their lack of preparation as to actual substance concerning the Bills, for example 2 minutes ago, Bangarang said: People that don’t put ketchup on scrambled eggs shouldn’t be trusted. Is this a cut/paste from the unpopular opinions thread? . Also, a lower cal option is hot sauce for the ketchup, but I can’t be mad at you for the premise lol. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just read my mind. I live in Boston and tuned into WGR (10 minutes ago) to get a "hometown feel" for the Bills as we near the final big cut. Instead, I got a fantasy breakdown, with a very serious piece of advice, "spend your money in the draft if you want a player!" For Crissake, this is a big, big week. Show some Bills knowledge and talk REAL football. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mojo44 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I personally feel the same as the 0P. But, you know, to each his own. If getting into fantasy football help somebody enjoy the sport and, in particular, the Bills more, so be it. I just tune it out.I don’t watch it, listen to it or click on it. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jobot Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Just remember before talking about your fantasy football team to another person, that no one in the entire world cares about your fantasy football team. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rc2catch Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 I picked josh Allen #4 overall in my family league. Yup #4. Fantasy football is a blast. I can honestly say I have never really watched any of the shows or listened to it on the radio before though. I just play or chat with my family and coworkers about it every once in awhile.

H2o Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 A lot of $$$ changes hands in Fantasy Sport, with football being the largest of them. People who are into it seriously on a financial level are always dialed into things like that looking for the perceived edge going into the weekend. I play, but I don't play for money. I have to shell out enough of that on my own without tossing it away trying to guess which Flex-RB is going to put my team over the top that week.

Coach Tuesday Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Fad diets, workout routines, personal finances, other peoples’ kids and the weather are all in the mix as well. Just horrible, tedious conversation topics. I’m sorry, I really don’t care what your kids did this summer or what stocks you invest in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Otreply Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 Adults Participating in this child’s game is to me, a bit odd, especially considering there is real football right there in front of them. To me it would be as fruitless as participating in fantasy driveway shoveling... just sayin, Go Bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
