The Renodoc is in!

Bring it, bitches.

He was bitching and wanting 30 seconds per pick because of you.

I had no internet and telepathy takes a bit longer to get thru.

If I luck box some money in this league again this year, I'll be donating it to JJ Watt's charity to help Hurricane Harvey Victims. If anyone else donates, I'll match as well up to 5k

That will be long gone by then.

Some people will still need help. If not that charity then something local.

Yeah, Miami could work to. Maybe just split the proceeds.

Oddly enough that's where I'm from and where my parents live. Also, my wife's family (including her grandma who was just rescued from Texas) is down there to.

Her grandma is running bad this last week or two. For her to revert to the mean would require a lottery win.

whoever my opponent is this week is super tilted atm

nice comeback from the dead

I am hoping to achieve almost the same

I had an epic battle v Miyagi Dojo.

Held an 8 point lead going into the NO Min game
Holding Rudolph v Cook I felt good
Thielen put in a great performance to take away targets from Rudolph whilst Cook was flying.

Going into Q4 I held a slender lead but with a strong lead by Min it looked like a pure running game. Cook ran to take the lead and enter the red zone but my boy Rudolph got his target and a TD. All was wrapped up.

Until... Cook broke away with the final play, past the 50, past the 40, past the 30, in the clear for a winning TD.... until that tackle.

Great first experience of Fantasy Football and a great matchup. GG Miyagi.

Glad you are enjoying it! Winning obviously helps.

When I first started playing in 2 leagues (only had one friends league previously) my fantasy football content appetite would be directly correlated with how I did the previous week.

If I was 2-0 I was reading every little article and setting all my waiver wire targets well in advance and following every little bit of news.

If I was 0-2, I would only do waiver wire if I was in a desperate need at a position and would likely only set my lineup early Sunday morning, unless I had a Thursday night player, and consume very little, if any fantasy content that week.

Yeah see, that's where I have no knowledge. Don't know what or how to do trade's or pick people up from the Waiver.

100% agree on results orientated mind set. If I'd lost I'd be complaining for the next 3 days, i.e. if Thielen had been played haha.

Awesome comeback from Donk - had his matchup showing live updates during the game

Any clue on time when waivers get processed?
09-12-2017 , 10:03 PM
Doesn't say in settings. In my other league I think it was around 4am EST last year, but I could be wrong.
09-12-2017 , 10:23 PM
Cool, no worries. Was being lazy and not sure if I could tomorrow, then saw it isn't until Thursday anyway. Got some in there now regardless.
09-12-2017 , 10:27 PM
Pretty sure it is tonight/early tomorrow morning that it clears.

When you go to available players, it says Wed.
09-13-2017 , 08:10 AM
Uh...yea just noticed that. Not sure what I saw. Apparently I didn't actually put any in, but all good I would have lost them all it appears.
09-13-2017 , 11:45 AM
Wow, what big spenders we have.

So 4:30am EST is the waiver action
