LeagueStory x GroupMe: The Story So Far…

Here’s the part where I tell you “I stand corrected”. I woke up this morning to a GroupMe message from our Commish stating that he though this was the worst season ever for The League through six weeks. I’m thinking to myself, “I’m doing pretty well so far, Herbert didn’t get me as much as I would have liked this week but I still beat Brent. What’s this guy talking about?” I went on to reply with a hilarious GIF from the movie Billy Madison, oh my God that is funny, implying I thought my former roommate was wrong. I crunched the numbers, and it turns out that I’M the one who was wrong. Take a look:

Should Taysom Hill Be Permissible As A TE?

The following column is a direct email that was sent by yours truly, Ryan (aka Marzy), owner of The Martians, to all other league managers. The original email content was not altered in anyway.

To give some context on the developing story, I bid $11 FAAB on Taysom Hill Tuesday night to pick him up off waivers and add him as a part of my team, with the intention of potentially playing him in the flex spot as a second TE. Due to past events and the nefarious tyranny of The Commish (aka Andrew) I have been told that I cannot start Taysom Hill as a TE, only QB, which has me bewildered considering ESPN Fantasy Football, the New Orleans Saints, and the NFL all consider him a TE. This decision by The Commish to not permit Taysom Hill as an acceptable TE was made after he was on my team and I have yet to have my $11 FAAB returned to me.

The Wire: Week 5 2022

Mfw it is Wednesday my dudes:

We had some fun this week fellas, and by we I mean me because I didn’t lose to Owen. There were two games that were pretty close that we’re gonna talk about but first I’ll reiterate something that was said on the podcast last week: Almost everyone got who they bid on, so y’all spent too much again. There was one competitive bid after the initial Tuesday-Wednesday rush that could have had some big implications on the week, let’s get into it.

LeagueStory x LeagueTalk: Redux

Ohhhhh boy. Ohhhhhhhhhhh God. I don’t even know what to say right now. Should I be upset that the Pod thinks my team is bad? Should I laugh at them for not realizing Breece Hall has been in the top 20 RBs for the past few weeks and is only going up from there? Should I remind you I’ve done this before? Should I give you a history lesson? What should I do?

The Wire: Weeks 3 & 4 (2-for-1 SPECIAL)

Alrighty, I’ve got a lot to go over and some new stuff to talk about so we’re keeping the Wire talk pretty brief. In Week 3, everyone got who they bid on except for me who wanted the Saints Defense. It would not have mattered because I got whooped by Ryan the fantasy football Gawd. This is to say that aside from Brent and anyone who bid only $1 and got their guy, y’all spent TOO MUCH. We’ll see if that comes back to bit ya later in the season.

LeagueStory x League Talk: Worst 2-Week Runs

Shoutout Mario Party 4, IYKYK

This is long overdue, much like The Wire which will be coming out some time early-ish this week, but I mentioned I would look into the archives and see if anyone has had a worse two week stretch than Beans’ start to the current season. The Corporation scored 151.6 over the course of these two weeks, a total which may not even guarantee you a win if scored in only one week (see the first graph at https://mustbesunday.com/2021/09/15/the-wire-week-1-2021/).

Cuck of the Week – Week 3 (Revenge of the Cuck)

Good Afternoon Cucks and Cuckettes,

Before we get started, I would just like to say, I’m sorry. I know I missed the first two weeks of cuckings. Some may speculate that I did not write those cuck of the weeks because I was the cuck. But I’m here to clear the air…..jk, those who think that are completely right. Sue me, Idc, my *roommates* dad is a lawyer.

LeagueStory x GroupMe: Historical Records through Week 3

Interesting, interesting, interesting. By GroupMe request, here is everyone’s records through Week 3 (of course using projected results for any match-up that is still to be decided this MNF). Max was correct in that this is his first recorded 0-3 season in The League. Ryan we love to see it. Interesting that nobody went 3-0 in 2018 or 2021. Everyone else’s trajectories are fun to look at as well, and I’ll reiterate that requests like these dealing with records and points and historical match-ups are always welcome and usually don’t take too long to put together. Last but not least, lol Lebron.
