2021/11/21

Week 10 happened and we have just 4 more games to playoffs! Not a hugely busy week for spending on the waiver wire but Craig finally opened his wallet and got him some Cam Newton. Let’s get ready for another great matchup week!

Soap Opera for Dudes Digest ·

2021/11/14

Week 9 was a down week for literally everyone’s teams, none moreso than Drew. He’s looking for a bounceback game against yours truly and the rest of the league has been refining their rosters and sharpening their proverbial swords for battle. Week 10 is here, and it’s gonna be competitive!

Week 9: A Whole Heap of Trades!

Soap Opera for Dudes Digest ·

2021/11/06

This league is wheeling and dealing this week! Three trades involving four managers went through this week. Holy moly! Pete and I have vastly different teams than we started the week with, and the waiver wire and free agency were busy for pretty much everyone. Well done! Oh yeah and we had two videos and at least one sidebet made already. I love this league!!!

Week 8: Fantasy Tricks and Treats

Soap Opera for Dudes Digest ·

2021/10/30

This league will always find ways to surprise me. We had ANOTHER big trade this week, and some great action on the waiver wire. Drew remains the smartest and most organized of us. Beej got his first win! And in early Week 8 action, my MVP candidate QB was a total dud. Tricks and treats to talk about in this pre-Halloween episode!

Week 7: Scott Keeps Winning Trades

Soap Opera for Dudes Digest ·

2021/10/24

Wow, a lot of action to talk about from Week 6 -- notable performances in nearly every game and the transactions last week certainly had an impact especially if your name is Scott! Also, Matt initiated a GIF party AND did pushups on video and deserves an extra special shout-out. Even if he can’t shout much today after going to the Kraken game last night :-)

Soap Opera for Dudes Digest ·

2021/10/17

Scott made ANOTHER trade and probably got the better end of this one too -- but we’ll see! And, of course, GIF of the Week and #EmotionsCorner. Have a great Week 6!

Happy official fall and Week 3 of the football season! Week 2 shook out with just one team being 2-0 and just one being 2-0. Some good upsets and not very many close games. Recaps, waiver wire, and even a video to react to!

Soap Opera for Dudes Digest ·

2021/09/19

We are in it now! We took our rosters for a test drive and stuff...happened. Some of us (Pete and Derek) seem to have made out like bandits and others are in the basement so far. But is this actually how things will be or was this just some bad luck and false starts for our rosters? Only time and savvy management will tell!Week 1 recap, transactions, and a GIF of the week/side bet segment!

Week 1: It’s a New Season!

Soap Opera for Dudes Digest ·

2021/09/02

We are back and getting ready for the 2021 season! This year we had a salary cap draft which changed almost literally everything about how the draft went. Everything, that is, except my hatred of the auto-draft robots! Lots to talk about and break down! After some general thoughts on the draft I go through each of the teams, their strengths, and what their general vibe is. Then, I wrap it up talking about the transactions made so far (already quite a few, even some from other managers than Scott!)
