Keenan Allen placed on Covid protocol

[Big John 1,269]

Just in time for leagues having a week 14 playoffs.  

[darin3 1,688]

That's just great.

 

No word on if he's vaccinated, in which case he'd just need two negative tests to come back.

 

Of course in the league I have him I also lost Thielen.  This season has been a clustereff.

[Big John 1,269]

NFLN says he is vaccinated.

WHY?   You're the second one to label it DUMB, with no real input other than "they didn't change it".  There are millions of leagues and they don't all need to be run the same way. Is the league dumb if it doesn't have IDP, or a flex spot, or still has a kicker? 

 

We changed ours, but I could see some leagues not even thinking about it amidst all the chaos in some people's live these days.

It's dumb because leagues shouldn't have playoffs while teams are on bye. That's FF league management 101. I'm sure some leagues didn't think of it. It's because they're dumb.

OK that is a legit reason, I figured people calling it dumb just meant the season is one game longer, so of course your regular season should be extended one game.

 

I'm pretty sure this is the latest bye weeks in NFL history, presumably related to the extension of the schedule by one more game/week. That is outside of the 1999-2001 seasons where there were an odd # of teams and at least one on bye every week. In those 3 seasons FF leagues had no choice but to have playoffs going on while teams were on bye, presumably just bad luck, not dumb. I know 20 years ago or more some leagues still had playoffs in the final week of the season, when players were often rested, over time most changed that. 

 

I just feel people toss around the term DUMB a lot, when they don't really know much about a decision being made, but it is "different than my league so its dumb".

I'm unsure how this wasn't entirely obvious?

I tend to over think things, to some people that's probably dumb.

You like arguing on the innerwebs, and doing that is the definition of dumb.

And you're just an angry old fart. Go punch Virginia McCaskey in the face and get some of that anger out of your system. Or maybe your cousin Eddie will bring her to your home tied up nicely on Christmas. 

 

PS arguing on the net makes one dumb, virtually every poster here is DUMB.
