In the run up to draft week, the guys have been doing some more homework and upon further evaluation, our 'instincts' regarding the top ten at each position proved to need some work. But were big enough to call out our mistakes. Better now, than after the draft. We just want to you to have the most honest best guesses that we can provide. With that we take a look at the final Top 5 Position Rankings for the end of last season. And there are some surprises. But after going through this exercise we are better prepared for the draft and you will be too. After that we also talk to Alex about life on the other side, that is, being a Commish of a league. Let's just say, lets all be a little more grateful for these guys. If you have questions or feedback, email us at ffistrategy@gmail.com.

Well, we're back... For one last episode... This season. We did it folks. We made it to the end of the season. We did it folks. We made it to the championship. Two Actually. At least one of us did. We review our playoff runs, best pickups and moves, worst decisions, and look forward to next seasons draft. Alex is fired up and his mic levels reflect that. But luckily John talks most of the time going in depth on his deep playoff runs. It's been hell of a season with many twists and turns, but we all landed where we deserved to finish. Listen to find out where that is. Thanks for being loyal listeners and we'll be back next season. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ffi/message

It's the clash of the podcast hosts in this highly anticipated, at times unexpected, rematch of the year. Who will win? Who will lose? Who will have more points? Who will have less points? Jmac and Alex try hard to have a normal show, with normal strategy talk, but rivals. Will the podcast survive this instant classic showdown? Will the still be friends after this grudge match? Will there be an episode next week? Find out this and more, not in this episode, but the one that maybe follows this one. But still get some pointers, player news, and good laughs this week. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ffi/message

The playoffs were on the line this past weekend for JMac. It started off shaky and didn't get better as the weekend progressed. BUT BUT BUT, there might be, possibly, maybe... a chance. It all came down to Monday Night. For Alex it's first round by or bust (mostly). It's all comes down to points. On Monday Night. Tune in to find out what happened!!! And where we go from here? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ffi/message

The 'Expert' episode where Alex cries his billionaire tears because he lost all his games. Now a first round bye is unexpectedly on the line. JMac is in the fight for his playoff life in each of his three leagues, so at least these games matter. But boy does he struggle with lineup strategy going into the most important week of his fantasy season. Listen to all the pain and agony on what is setting up to be a nail-bitter of a finish. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ffi/message

Week 11 is in the books and the drama of the regular season is only heating up with two weeks left in the regular season. While the middle of the pack is trying to gain any edge to grab one of the last playoff spots (it was a good week for one Co-Host), the titans at the top have their own issues to worry about. Like setting their roster. Who could that be (not a good week for another Co-Host)? But that's not all, with bad injuries coming at bad times, will this cause some owners to throw logic and reason out the window and go all in, with all their FAAB money, on an unproven, no-name backup? Listen in to hear the agony of this decision live, in real-time. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ffi/message

Coming hot and fresh off their Bye week, John and Alex dive back in for the home stretch of the regular fantasy season. Recapping the past two weeks that have been wild and Topsy-turvy, it seems no one can be trusted. Well except for the Bungles, I mean Bengals. We talk about who is coming up strong in the home stretch and what players are trying to find their groove. In our strategy session, we have our very first ever live tape-delayed caller question! We also discuss doubles, twins, duos- whatever metaphor you want to use for starting two receiving sets from the same NFL team on your fantasy team.

John has finally had an undefeated week, going 3-0 first the first time this season, which is cause for celebration. But alas it was bitter sweet as he left significant points on the bench this week. Sad :( We also recap the injury wire and trade wire of the NFL to see how this all throws a wrench or saves some teams from ruin. Finally we take a step into the future, looking at what players breakout seasons will have them climb into the top two rounds of next years draft. (This is the companion piece the just released BONUS EPISODE looking back at the busts from this years draft in the first two rounds.)

At this point in the season, you know what you got in the players you've drafted. Especially your top two draft picks. And you know what, if you drafted a WR, it aint pretty. We take a look back at the first to rounds of our shared league, LA Locals to see who has hit the mark and who has been a bust. The answers will surprise you. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ffi/message

Do they take bets on injuries in Vegas? Cause you'd be playing with house money if they did. Some people went down, some may be coming back. But it would be nice if you could swap out injured players mid game. At least that's what Alex thinks. How does this all effect our weekly strategy?

In this episode we talk about our feelings. Feeling on loosing big, loosing small, and loosing knowing we could have won. But it all mean nothing in the end. What we don't talk about is Alex winning the head-to-head match up with his co-host John. That didn't happen. Not at all. We do learn about Alex's crazy draft situations, along with a bunch of other stuff, like our overall records in each league, the handcuff conundrum, injury updates, and how half the leagues QBs are better than Aaron Rodgers, like...

Have you ever made a choice in life, then look back after and which you chose differently? Well that was this Sunday in fantasy football. We started people we should have sat. We sat people we should have started. But this affect John more than Alex as we discuss in our weekly recap. We also talk about what we do with breakout players, a bunch of injury updates on high profile players, our strategy for the upcoming week.

Another exiting week in the land of Fantasy Football. John is on the upward swing with his first over .500 week (and nearly missing a 3-0 week by less than .5 points). But Alex's decent into the valley continues, all because he listened to 'He Who Must Not Be Named' from a little know entertainment and sports programing network. PSA, it's not a myth. He will kill you roster. A certain RB may be crashing the party after showing up fashionably late, which will both benefit and hurt Alex. It's tearing him apart. John can't quit AB, even as his antics pile up. Then we talk about our sit/strat debates leading into the next week. Also about quite wavier wire this week. But is that the calm before the storm in coming weeks? The only way to find out is to tune in, which is assumed if you are reading this to the end!

In Week 3 of Fantasy Football, both Alex and John lived through the highest of highs and the worst of the lows. From having the highest points scorer of the week (Mike Evans) but still loosing, to having a bum RB (Philip Lindsay) break out but still lose by less than a point, it was a roller coaster week. But the intrigue doesn't end there. Everyone's favorite TMZ character Antonio Brown had a surprisingly early season death when he was shockingly (at least to Brown owners) cut from the Pats. And some carried out a high ankle sprain to the best back in the league, Saquon Barkley, throwing the whole community into chaos. Intrigue indeed! Even with all this intrigue, we expect to be quite on the wavier wire while others mortgage their home to find solutions to unsolvable problems. Like how to replace the best RB in football?

Week 2 of the NFL took many shocking twists with players being taken out left and right. Big Ben crumbles, Drew Brees is blown by hurricane force winds to the bench, and the Eagles receivers dropped quicker than fly to a bug light on a summer night. But that isn't the only sad news. John's over all record is, how to describe it, not good. At 2-4, his needs some help. And his shinning beacon on the hill is fortunately his co-host Alex, who is on a roll at 5-1. What great wisdom and knowledge will Alex impart on lowly co-host? Only way to find out is to listen! We also talk discuss the roller coaster of emotions of being an owner of AB, how much Sunday scouting we actually do, and what this weeks strategy is shaping up to be.

The drama escalates as we discuss our week one outcomes. Alex is bitter about loosing by .3 points in one league, JMac is hopeful with a 1-2 start. (Low Bar) The intrigue continues as AB sabotages his way to the Pats, that leads all the gossip and overreactions to week one. We then discuss our master plan to rule the fake gridiron with waiver wire pickups and trades. Come join us as the new season heats up. Who knows where all the twists and turns and backstabbing will lead. (Slight tech issues for the first few minutes on Jmac's line; don't worry, it doesn't last long.) --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ffi/message

We had some technical difficulties along the way to our current winning streak (Three weeks in a row!!!). But we got there and as they say, better later than never. But that's what you get will just a couple of regular guys doing a regular fantasy football podcast. Still plenty of great discussion of naming teams (A TOP TEN LIST!) trades, holdouts, and social media forced cuts. Along with our draft recap and the roller coaster of emotions that we went through. We'll be back soon to talk the dumpster fires that are our teams, after a possibly disastrous first week! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ffi/message

In Season 3 Episode 2, the lucky horse puts himself out to pasture, the murder plot for Saturday's big gala gets strategic, and we visit the old folks home to tell them their hips are no good anymore.

The boys, John and Alex, are back at it with Season 3, totally skipping Season 2. Too many interruptions. In the season three premier, we pick up where season 2 didn't leave off with discussions on our results from last season, the leages we're in this season; Contracts, Disputes, and Balky Knees (Player News), and some war room topics (Strategy Talk). --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ffi/message
