  1. Sending love from North Tonawanda N Y. Class begins. Dot your i's and cross your t's and welcome to Degenerate University. I love this fuckin shit… Thank you… THEEBUFFALOWARPIGS.

  2. Professor Overzet was fuckin around with , waiting for the last 6 rounds to draft 3 qb's and 3 te's. I have been tryin all kinds of crazy shit. That's next.

  3. I like using my last rounds for QBs and TEs. Dead roster spots suck in BB and after my great qb i wait for my other two and all three TEs. Taking late round guys that are going to be playing is important. Conklin, Henry and Mcbride are just an example of my late TEs that will be on the field.

  4. Hey guys, enjoyed the show as always but had a question re: “two QBs from a week 17 game”

    In the occasional Superflex tournaments Underdog has been dropping, do you think taking both QBs from the same game becomes optimal? Then if the game blows up you actually can take advantage of both QBs scores, unlike a traditional single QB tourney

    Would love your input if you have a moment, thanks!

  5. damn! I’d love to see a vid for dk best ball with 20 rounds of drafting….but that makes it all the more insane to take 4TEs!
    Does the league you’re talking about start a qb 2 rbs 3wr a te and a flex?! No way can’t possibly be…
