The guy got fleeced!

 

Bijan is for sure an Uber talent. After Breece. Best around. On the other hand. RB shelf life is 3-5. I mean Dalvin Cook went from Top 5 stud to OUT in a single season.  Bijan was overall ok his rookie year. No one in Atlanta has done anything since Julio Jones. Maybe it’s not a system or coaching or QB problem. Maybe it’s a franchise drafting the wrong players . And fantasy managers overvaluing.  

He is a long way from Ladainian 

Kittle….by the way…is a 1000 yards and 6 TDs every year. Good for Top 5 TE finish or Top 20 WR.  Kittle on a Super Bowl offense is a dynasty Top 10 TE set and forget it stud.

However Let’s not get angry or point fingers at a Manager who swindled the group and is the smarter man in the room.

 

But still, worst trade ever.

 

If you think the Bijan trade is the worst trade ever, you may want to take a look at his CeeDee Lamb trade as well. Because that one is just as bad too.

still running your mouth because your sooooooo jealous I made two trades…. no rules have been broken. But yea your right I’m immature because I am playing the game within the rules layed out by the platform which you still choose to play on and renew then complain about it.

The league has been around for 5 seasons I’ve finished second the first for years in a row and third last year. Top 2 points scorer every year even last with Jefferson AND Chubb hurt but your right it was all the two trades I made last year that have help me since league inception…

Oh yea and I am still counting your money cry baby. 😭

Again, the archives don’t lie; you do. In 2019 you were NOT a Top 2 scoring team, but in fact, were the #7 team in scoring. In 2020, you were NOT a Top 2 scoring team, but in fact, were the #5 team in scoring. 

Not that any of that matters anyway, kid.  My issue is strictly with 2023, where again you got away with making 2 ridiculous trades. It has nothing to do with prior years, and your defense for trade-raping 2 teams last season is, “but but look at how well I’ve done in the past” is utterly ridiculous. That has absolutely nothing to do with anything.

I am actually impressed... again at myself...lol... I've upset you sooooooo much just by making trades and telling you how bad you are that you have taken all day to "prove me wrong" you went into the archives your so thirsty for justice .....don't forget about the $100 I get every year for top 2 points scorer-Add that into me still having your money...LOL

The archives are where the receipts are at, young man.

Just like a prosecutor doesn’t bring charges against a criminal without having the evidence, I’m not gonna accuse anyone of trade-raping two different teams without bringing the evidence with. So, you can spin it in any immature way you want, but the facts are as clear as day of what you did. 

I am not going to get in the middle of a p@#$ing match but it is sure fun to read. $$$ is not the only reason one should play. If that is the reason then all lets join a $5000 league with no trading and lets see who wins.

Dyn30 is 100% correct. HC must be a politician because he sure can talk without answering or saying anything relevant.

Now my points.

1. You cannot say Uber talent and shelf life of 3-5 in same sentence. MCC, Kamara, Barkley, Mixon, Connor, Henry, and Monty all been in the league 5+.
2. It has nothing to do with a bad franchise. The QB was terrible and the coach is an ...(you know).
3. Kittle was 12 pts per game. Lockett was 12 pts per game WR33. Not close to WR20.
4. A top 10 set lineup stud... seriously. Baker was a top 10 QB. Is he a set your line up stud? Remember. this is a one player position like QB. (apples to apples)
5.  Finally, the real reason for my post. The manager that swindled the group? smarter man in the room? He ripped the guy off or concluded and left the league. This is why RT changed their rules this year. Always late to the party. Lets change our draft pick rules. Lets cut to 14 players. Instead of having the manhood to veto trades like this. Take the easy way out RT. Let the league vote on all trades. No blame on you.
6. Nothing personal. I feel better and will go back to the sidelines where I belong.

Worst trade ever. In real or fantasy football. Kittle for Bijan. Both teams should be thrown out and the Commissioner fired!

The bank doesn’t lie about that money I have that was yours and is now mine…

Well not exactly. You’ve made a profit of $700 over 5 years. And I’ve played one year in this league.  So most of my entry fee last year went to the team that actually won the league.

Congrats on continually taking 2nd and 3rd Place. The goal is 1st Place, however, so even though you haven’t been able to achieve that goal, it is a nice consolation prize for you  

But, if you can finally win the league this year, you can earn that same $700 in only one year and not take 5 years to earn the same amount. Your chances should be good this season since you’ve added two of the Top 5 players and essentially only gave up Kittle and Stevenson to do so.

So if you can’t win a championship, then the 2nd best option is to buy one. Well done on that. Maybe this will finally be your year.   

Sorry too busy counting your money I can't hear the jealous people in the back.

You mean congrats on being profitable- thanks as that’s the reason I’m here. Not so much for you aye?

I bet you’re real fun at parties- Jealousy is an ugly color on you and it’s very much showing.

You portray and talk like one of them guys that’s angry at the world and has to have the last word, so feel free to get it in. I’ll just be over here still collecting your monies sport..

Well again, I took this team over as orphan so I’m obviously not going to be profitable and last season you were somewhat profitable, but largely due to your trade-raping of two different teams in highly one-sided trades. Don’t injure your arm too much patting yourself on the back for that. 

There’s no jealousy  There’s simply an expectation of fair play, particularly when one takes over an orphan team, and clearly when ridiculously lopsided trades like those previously described are not overturned by the commissioner, then that expectation hasn’t been met.
