<div class="bbWrapper">Rough start to the year. This fantasy year has been a wild roller-coaster after 2 weeks. However...<br /> <br /> ... some of the trade offers and final trades I&#039;ve seen have me utterly confused. Can someone explain how either of the trades that went through make sense? Why trade a mid-low end RB2 for a mid-low end RB2?

Langford is a sinking ship, along with the Bears, so getting Freeman, who is splitting duties, but plays on a competitive team, was the difference. <br /> <br /> Has anyone noticed MJ&#039;s roster? He only has Stafford in his starting lineup, with all the other roster spots empty.</div>

It just so happens our advanced analysis concluded that Wendall Smithers or whatever he&#039;s called was clearly the best back in the draft, perhaps the league as a whole, therefore a bid of $16 was entirely reasonable.<br /> <br /> You think of me when Wendell Sanders is getting inducted into the Hall of Fame in a few years.....&quot;man that Carrot guy really knew his stuff&quot;</div>

You never know with Fantasy Football. I was kicking myself last week for not playing Riddick, as his points would have put me in a comfortable spot, rather than having to stress, sweat and worry if Brate was going to save my week. I must be living right though, starting 6-0 (knock on wood). I will admit, I had the suck out of suck outs last week.</div>

But I&#039;m not really looking for a tight end upgrade. Fleener is boom or bust but apart from the big guns like Gronk/Olsen he&#039;s still got amongst the highest weekly ceiling. He can also put up 40 yards like last week but that&#039;s most tight ends.<br /> <br /> Of course I turned down Ajayi for Deandre Washington two weeks ago so I may be the worst trader going around.</div>

No I have a different gift for you....<br /> <br /> You see growing up in New Zealand we tend to build our perceptions of places in the USA based on tv and movies. So while I&#039;ve never actually been to New York, I&#039;ve lost count of the number of things set there I&#039;ve seen and therefore have a perception of the place which may of course be completely wrong. LA also gets plenty of airtime, San Fran, Miami, Dallas and even somewhere like Detroit gets a decent movie like Four Brothers.<br /> <br /> Which brings us to Tampa. Hmmm lets see where have I seen Tampa on the screen.....oh I remember<br /> <br /> <a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009VB97EY/?tag=tff-amazonparser-20" target="_blank" class="link link--external" rel="noopener">https://www.amazon.com/dp/B009VB97EY/?tag=tff-amazonparser-20</a><br /> <br /> Magic Mike! Channing Tatum, various other oily strippers and learning the completely foreign concept of a &quot;Hurricane Party&quot;<br /> <br /> You beat me by 20 points you get Magic Mike, to watch as many times as you want.</div>
