    Well after a 13-1 regular season and championship last season (only got one loss by not carring to make subs during Aaron Rodgers/Greg Jennings/ Gates bye) my team did not start off so hot this year, an 0-3, there was some tough luck, prob could have been 1-2/2-1 but led the league in points against

    roster was

    qb Rodgers
    rb Turner
    rb Blount
    wr Wallace
    wr Marshal
    te Winslow
    flex Bradshaw
    k folk
    d/st Chargers
    with a bench of
    Wr Holmes
    qb Kolb
    te dickson
    rb Williams
    rb Daniel Thomas
    wr Eric Decker


    Well first I wanted to upgrade my TE, so I sent an offer to the kid with Gronkowski trying to seel high with Thomas after his big week, well he didn't want to give up Gronk but offered Roddy White straight up, so I took the sell high, buy low there

    then I decided to press my luck and made the offer of Bradshaw and Holmes for Greg Jennings to another kid, he counters by saying he wants Decker instead of Holmes so I obviously took it

    so now/ post waivers the roster looks like

    qb Rodgers
    rb Turner
    rb Blount
    wr Jennings
    wr Wallace
    te Pettigrew
    flex Roddy White
    k Folk
    d/st Chargers

    b Marshall
    b Holmes
    b Winslow
    b McCluster
    b kolb
    b Minnesota D


    currently trying to use Marshall to upgrade blount, but yeah is it as big of a turn around as I think or is it just wishful thinking?

    Lemme get this straight. He didn't want to give up Gronkowski, so he gave you Roddy White instead? And if that's not bad enough, someone asks for Eric Decker over Santonio Holmes?

    Do these people have down syndrome?

    Seriously. I wouldn't credit this "turn-around" so much for you as I would the retards you play with. Why can't I ever get in leagues that retards play in? I actually have to make quality deals.

    Haha that's fair, most of the guys know what they are doing but we have some, lets say creative thinkers in there

    the "I really don't want to give up Gronk, would you take White" is my favorite though

    If it's a PPR league, Decker might actually hold more value.

    I hate you.

    I try and swing a fair deal with a guy, and he turns around and counters my offer with

    Matt Forte and Stevie Johnson

    For

    Lesean Mccoy and Calvin Johnson (These are my guys)

    I was like fuck you dick, get that garbage out of here. It's not even like mccoy and Calvin are underperforming, to where I may sell low, I laughed him off the face of the earth.
