Mmm... I think everybody would prefer you didn't show favoritism (sorry Chi, nothing personal). Make him work for it! My case is a bit different as you aptly pointed out.

I dunno, ultimately its up to you. Does it affect who I'm playing or who your playing? Then it might matter and be an actual strategy.

Just for fun, I fed Grok the player rosters & stats for Vitalik Strong Body and ChiBitCTY and it says "Vitalik is the scarier semifinal opponent by a decent margin."



So yeah, do what you gotta do, I don't think anybody would hold it against you (except bbc.reporter). But you can't have Philip Rivers because I'm already starting him.

OK, Everyone root for Warren to play and put up 23+ points!

Yeah, Right!

And it looks like both my WR1 and WR2 will be out next week so your sitting pretty.

I see you guys (Hueristic & bbc) don't have anybody playing today -- you get a full rest day until tomorrow. For me things are looking pretty good, I just needed the Eagles to not blow chunks, and they didn't so far, so I'm pretty happy about that.

And yes I'll echo the sentiment: good luck to all.

Congrats @bbc.reporter, you earned you win!

@Hueristic. Thank you! I very much appreciate a congratulations from you and this gives me more confidence and excitement for our league next season!

I am looking at the playoff standings and my head is shaking. There are unexpected teams that are leading their divisions.

@nutildah. I would also be angry if I was named Dekaylin Zecharius heheheheheh.

Also on injuries, I have other important players on questionable status. This will be difficult for my team.

Thank you for the congratulations! I wish it was week 1 again!

Interesting to note the 3 home dogs for the NFL Holiday games

Cowboys @ Redskins (+7)
Lions @ Vikings (+7.5)
Broncos @ Chiefs (+13.5)

I'd give the obvious edge to the first 2 home teams winning straight up; wouldn't be shocked if either pulled off the upset

Lions and Broncos both will have their A game as Denver is fighting for the #1 seed still and the Lions are on the outside looking in. The other 4 teams are mathematically eliminated. I do think this could be Andy Reid and Travis Kelce's last games at home and both retire after this season, so the Chiefs could have a little fire in them. Might be worth taking the Chiefs and the points on a small bet.
