Odell Beckham Jr. is the second-best fantasy receiver for 2017 as long as he stays off boats

At the moment, I have Beckham at two [in wide receiver rankings]... As long as he stays off boats... He saves it for the postseason, which we don't care about in fantasy.

Beckham got injured early in the 2017 season and only played 4 games, failing to live up to a top 2 ranking.

Celtics fans have no right to complain about trading draft picks for Kyrie Irving

I don't understand Celtics fans that have been bitching and moaning about Danny Ainge not trading picks... and then when he does trade it, being like, well, we should have held on to that pick. Because you just got a guy who is [a] top five scorer in the NBA, a guy who can score in the finals of the NBA finals.

While Kyrie was an All-Star in Boston, the tenure ended poorly with no finals appearances, and the pick traded (which became Collin Sexton) was valuable, though not franchise-altering.

The Kyrie Irving trade is a huge win for the Celtics because they now have a core of Gordon Hayward, Al Horford, and Kyrie Irving

I think this is a great trade. People said that Danny Ainge couldn't get free agents to Boston. Now they have Horford, Kyrie, and Gordon Hayward.

Subjective opinion on a roster construction. The trio never reached a Finals together.

LeBron James will still leave the Cavaliers after the 2017-18 season

It does make a lot of drama, and I still do think LeBron is leaving. Although now it's sourced material from our friend Ryan Russell says LeBron doesn't know what to do because he hasn't decided if he hates Isaiah Thomas yet or not.

LeBron James did indeed leave the Cleveland Cavaliers to join the Los Angeles Lakers in the summer of 2018.

Al Bundy is one of the all-time great fictional characters

Al Bundy's one of the all-time... I mean, Polk High, obviously. Four touchdowns. But one of the all-time great characters... Ed O'Neill, especially in that role... that character was amazing.

Fantasy football players should wait at least 24 hours after a real-life player's injury before publicly complaining about their fantasy team

I think at least 24 hours. I think at least 24 hours... I certainly don't think you should @ him.

Subjective etiquette guideline.

Fantasy football leagues should not have a trade veto unless there is proof of collusion

Veto guy is on my Mount Rushmore. Guy who just vetoes everything. To me, unless you can prove collusion, there should be no veto in [fantasy football].

This is a widely debated but inherently subjective matter of fantasy league philosophy.
