I've never played for free.
You were actually in the ISH Fantasy Football league like 5 years ago when I won it. I remember CMC, Kelce, and Zeke carried me to the title and 700 dollar or whatever prize.
I got lucky that year CMC played the whole season and completely dominated with the Panthers.

The year I played I beat you in the playoffs, iirc.
I had CMC that season and traded him mid-season because he was injured
It just seems a little convenient you're getting all of these high value waiver guys in money leagues. You're the only one bidding on Mason, Hubbard, and Goedert?

Re: NFL Football
I didn't bid on any of those guys. San Fran lied and said CMC was 100% good to go and then pulled the plug in dramatic fashion at the last second on a Monday night. I scooped Mason up before the game for free when he was like 5% owned on yahoo. And that encompasses all of their money leagues. Yahoo runs a ton of money leagues... I don't know where you heard they don't.
And I picked up Hubbard right before Dalton got the starting job when Carolina looked like an all time bad team. Totally free of charge.
I did draft Goedert, but in like one of the last rounds as a back up. Once AJ Brown went down he was actually the perfect handcuff it turned out. Pretty sure he leads TEs in yards this year which is extremely valuable given the waste land that position has become.

I know yahoo runs money leagues, but they have a ton of free leagues and attract a lot of scrubs. Yahoo always has lower % of owned than ESPN or sleeper.
Also CMC was listed as questionable heading into the game - yes, most believed he would play up until game day, but the fact that the CMC owner in your league didn't handcuff him knowing he was heading into week 1 with a designation tells me you're not in a serious league with serious players.
Doesn't add up to me, you're playing In a free yahoo league

Re: NFL Football
I've been in a league for years with my old college buddies for $100 dollar buy in, multiple yahoo pro leagues for much more and of course the ISH money league... which I won... and you know that... back when prime time ran it and everybody was trying.
So it's a major cope to act like I don't know what I'm doing or haven't played against real competition especially when you were in the league mentioned. And never won it.
There's no point in playing in free leagues because anybody who starts off bad quits and then the competitiveness falls off a cliff where every week half the league isn't starting a full lineup.

I'm not sure why you keep bringing up the ISH league. I played 1 year and beat you in the playoffs and lost to Dooms in the championship. (2020 season when Mccaffrey played like 3 games)
I'm also not saying you don't know what you're doing... i'm saying the people in your league don't know what they're doing. If you're in a taco league with a bunch of tacos... the league is invalid
also i've been in money leagues that were invalid also. Being in a money league doesn't necessarily mean the people know what they're doing. It's actually rare to be in a league with everybody who knows what they're doing. All it takes is 1 or 2 tacos to ruin a league, or an incompetent league manager who allows collusion. I hope one day you find a legit league and aren't playing with bums. Good luck

Stick to free leagues my guy.
This is a screenshot of what I won with the ISH Money League.
18 dollars?
Doesn't look like it. Looks like a bit more. But winning is worth more than money. This is all chump change at the end of the day.
I only play money leagues because it can only be competitive that way. There's no satisfaction to be gained by beating up on scrubs.

You wouldn't have won that year had I been in the league at the time. Whooped your ass both years I was in the league
But that's the exact point i'm making. there's no fun in taco leagues. If I was a CMC owner then having Mason on my team is a no-brainer... hell its a no-brainer even if you don't have CMC because he's an extremely high value backup. In legit leagues he was owned. Maybe you play in 6-team leagues though, i have no idea..

Re: Football
I was in a 14 team league with a $125.00 buy in amongst friends. I don't know how many do it or how common it is but one of the best rules we had was if your starting QB gets knocked out of the game, you automatically got that teams back-up QB for the rest of the game. Plus you were allowed to start him if need be while the starter is out.
Plus we did a 'high team points' after each week where you'd get 25 bucks for achieving that. Just a way to get / win back money if you did't finish top 3.
Payout was
$500
$250
$125

Rank the top 5 QBs in order
1Mahomes
2Allen
3 Lamar
4Burrow (no he's not living off that superbowl trip anymore **** that)
5 nobody has claimed this spot yet too many dudes clustered together
Just like Jalen Hurts dont get to live off his SB trip anymore. we not doing it anymore with Burrow. KEEP THE SAME ENERGY! You not just gonna keep missing the playoffs and get to be called the 2nd best qB in the league.
NO NOT ON MY FKIN WATCH!

That's probably the right top 4 in order. Although I'd probably trust Burrow more with my life on the line the playoffs than Lamar. But you can't discount Lamar's consistency and what he brings pretty much every week.
For the 5th spot I'd probably say Stroud.
