    Thanks! 10+5 is an interesting idea. 

    What happens for trades?  Say I draft a player for $20, cut him, pick him back up, then trade him to you. Is your keeper value $25 or $15? 

    We discussed no minimums for keepers but thought that was more boring. 1 spot out of 15 shouldn't be too oppressive, esp since you can keep a FA for $6 in our league. 

    Trades transfer draft value, so the cut/add thing is still not relevant in our league.  So...$25.

    The keeper thing is the one I'd care least about.  Every team this year kept 2, so it probably doesn't come into play, anyway.

  2. My auction league is very similar, in your case I’d make a couple of changes. Free agent pickups should be $10+5 to keep, not $1+5. So, if you luck box into Kareem Hunt 2018, good on you but you’re not finding value in a WR3 or something. There should be no minimum number of keepers, if a player wants to throw his whole roster back he should be allowed to. A player being dropped and added back by the same team doesn’t affect his keeper value, the controlling documents are draft day prices and end of season roster. Anybody you didn’t draft is $15 to keep and anybody you did is draft day value plus inflation rate...there is no need to track cuts and adds.

    The Barkley owner in my league cut him to use his IR spot on a better future value, so I used some FAAB on him. He’ll be $15 for me next year. I’ve had Zeke since his suspension year discount, but he’ll cost me market rate next year...so a good time to rebuild.

    Cowherd has sucked lately but he used to be 60%

    Nobody beats NFL sides long term. What’s worse, with little to no fans now all the models that were overrating home field are corrected.

    I’ve still been spending my time on baseball but with fewer games, I’ll start on NFL this week...but unlike baseball, I don’t expect to win. I’m one of the nobody that beats the NFL. 😀

    Any suggestions on where to place some action online? New to online betting and not sure which sites to trust. 

    betonline.ag assuming you’re in a state that doesn’t have legal options.

  6. I still don't think I'm wrong about these numbers, the A's/White Sox elimination game is prices correctly IMO.  That Reds abortion is the difference between being down 2/3rds of a unit vs picking up 2 units of profit the last two days.  Small sample size and whatnot.  I still see value in 2 for today...

    Reds +127

    Cardinals +142

     

  7. It cost me half a unit yesterday, but I still think pricing is wrong...the lines are priced like these are 7 games series, only the Dodgers deserve as much respect as they're getting, IMO.  While it may burn me, I've gotta stick with my conviction, so I'm adding...

    Astros +137

    Blue Jays +125

    White Sox +115

    Cardinals +150

  8. I'm not sure if it's public money inflating the market or what, but all the underdogs today are mis-priced, so I'm taking all of them...

    Astros +150

    A's +110

    Blue Jays +177

    Generally speaking, I think there is SOME value on any underdog getting +120 or better for series prices...but I think the way I'm going to play it is to wait until after the game 1s to see if prices overreact.  I will almost certainly have the Cards to win the series without waiting for game 1, but I haven't dug into the ones that start tomorrow, yet.

     

  9. The 3 places I can think of in that part of town that are open before 11 with outdoor seating are Culinary Dropout, Lupe Tortilla, and Rudy’s. If you don’t eat until 11 your options expand quite a bit.

    Agreed, Ipads are much more usable if you need to do work. I believe some people do light video editing, which is probably damned near impossible on any Android tablet. But for my use cases, it's just the same as I do on my phone, but on a bigger screen. Yea a lot of Android apps are not optimized for tablets but the data is still the same as my phone, just bigger which is kinda the whole point.

    Samsung Dex is actually a very good implementation of a mobile to desktop OS. If Apple had implemented something like Dex, it'd be all the rage. But since it's Samsung, most people dismiss it. I think Dex is a much better mobile to desktop OS than what iOS is. iOS is still lacking as a desktop like replacement.

    They forked iOS, so iPad has it’s own OS now that’s getting better at bridging the gap. But, I still agree with you, it’s just not quite a laptop replacement for me. For what I do on a tablet, I could have gone cheaper...but I like the integration into the Apple ecosystem as I’m also iPhone and Mac.
