    Fantasy Who Plays the Daily Fantasy Stuff?

    This shit is ridiculously hard. For some reason I can never pick a lineup that is half way decent. Anyone know of tips or anything?

    Not me... the daily stuff is just a little too much for me to even think about. If you are a grade A student you think too much .

    Haha do you mean that if you actually follow the game and know the splits for the players on that day, you overthink and pick who you think would score a lot but end up scoring you nothing? Because I am noticing that my cousin who doesn't follow the MLB at all wins more than I do. He just goes in and presses a player based on their team and price and doesn't hardly know anything.. I look up splits, trends, etc. etc.. and I ain't winning shit.. smh

    Yeah... in regular fantasy all too often I pick guys I really like over a player that usually actually does better. Bad habit for many, many years.

    In my Keeper League a couple of years ago I tried to trade Cam and a pretty good receiver for Luck and a receiver a little less talented than the one I was offering. The guy laughed at me on the forum and said Cam wasn't even in league with Luck. Basically tried to make me look like a fool on the forum even tho I also offered a little better WR than the one he had in the deal. That would make things about even... right??? Even if one thought Luck was a little better than Cam. Anyway... I have won 2 years in a row with Cam and A.Brown as my 2 Keepers. MFer. Ha.

    I seem to have some success with baseball. My system isn't all that complicated I just look at the starting matchups and who's got weak bullpens and go from there.

    They must have heard you had made contact with a daily-mastermind ... and mixed with you that would mean them losing $.
