Draft Kings

[Oh_That_Guy]

Cutler and Cousins are the same price. I may swap them out tomorrow...

And if you win you'll be able to say something that no human being has ever said in the history of the world...I won fantasy football with Kirk Cousins as my QB.

And TE Gary Barnidge is dirt cheap but he puts up big numbers for a tight end. Last week I think I got 23 points from him

I'm at a disadvantage because I'm a huge Redskins fan and don't want anyone on my FF team playing against them. It causes a feedback loop in my cheering subroutines.

Cousins is either great or stunningly average.

Time to start my research for Sunday's contests.

The strategy this week is to set one line-up, then enter once in a big contest and 10 times (with the same line up) in a 50/50

Won $12 last weekend. I keep this up I'll be on one of those commercials somewhere around 2175.

I saw this somewhere else:

Think of DFS on Fanduel and Draftkings like being in a No Limit Holdem Poker Tournament. Only, the sharks come to the table with $50k and you have $100. Then, imagine that just prior to the table cards getting turned up the sharks get information on how few of a certain card there are available.

You're fucked before you even place your bet.

This is a tough week. The Thursday night game, and the morning game being played in the Olde Country put a wrench into my perfect line up.

When Cousins played at Michigan State he was 4-0 against main rival Michigan, the last three as the starting quarterback for his team. I know, I know, that was in college, not in the NFL. Still, it's interesting. Makes me think maybe he can play, and just needs to be with the right team. Kind of like Jay Cutler.

Crowder is my sleeper.

The GB used to have a lot of FF peoples. They all got married though.

Whodathunkit? Kirk Cousins leads Washington to the largest comeback win in franchise history, 31-30.

I don't gamble or play lotto games. Never did. I like my money too much to just throw it away.

"Throw money away" is relative. No doubt you spend money on things I'd think were a waste.

As it is... I'm about even and having fun. You can't beat that with a stick.

Losing your money isn't the kind of fun I would enjoy.

I think that will end soon, once DraftKings and FanDuel are designated gambling sites and not fantasy.

Their lawyers are quite busy these days!

Back to the Future series predicted no lawyers in the future. Damn wish they got this one correct. LOL

That thing is USEFUL. Gambling is not.

Gambling is entertainment. It's no different than spending your money on a movie or play or football game. You don't like it, don't do it.

The problem is that Draft Kings and Fan Duel operators are not calling it gambling: It's fantasy. You and I know it's unregulated lottery, but they're trying to bullshit their way past all the gambling laws.

That's a completely different argument and one I'm not 100% on board with although I certainly lean towards it.
Either way, it's entertainment though.

It's time to set the line-up. I took a beating last week because my defense sucked and Larry Fitzgerald decided to take a nap instead of play football.

This will be an interesting Sunday because a lot of the top FF players have already played this week.

And you know what? Last week Kirk Cousins was the #3 scorer!
