Fantasy Football Tips

Ade Jimoh Fan Club · 09-08-2004, 11:09 AM

I know that keeping your "heart out of it" is always good advice for building a successful fantasy team - but I feel stronger about the Skins than I do about fantasy football. I'd rather see the Skins win than my fantasy team. So I do allow a little bias to float in. But if the Skins have a big year - and they will eventually - then it'll be a double-whammy.

I also don't like to start players against the Skins - it's not fun to cheer for a player to do well against us!

If you really want to win at fantasy football, that is the attitude you HAVE to take. But I am like you - for that one or two games a year that a guy plays against the Skins, it is tough to put him in the lineup. If they are a borderline player or if they are going against a true strength on the Redskins, I will bench them. A quality player stays in my lineup if I can't find SOME justification for benching him, besides the fact I will be rooting AGAINST him that day LOL. What's really nice is when your fantasy player has a big game against the Skins, but the Skins WIN!!

I hear that! That's definitely the best...

By the way, I was never condoning benching a stud player (ie 1st round pick) against the skins... that's nutz.

I try to not start guys against the Skins too, but sometimes you've gotta do it, especially if you're talking about one of your big time stars.

yea I have a hard time playing peopel against the skins, but Im not going to bench moss, mcnabb, or toomer this year, because they are some of my studs on my fantasy team.

I will always take a receiver if hes the only good one on the team. Which explain why I drafted randy moss with my first pick this year. OR why chambers is a great pick, or Owens, or a couple other great receivers.

The rookie thing can go either way. Ive got Fitzgerald on my team this year, hopefully he'll have a huge year for me.
