I have Hillis, word is that he is now going to be out today. I start looking for his backup, Hardesty as my RB's suck.

Can't find the guy, and I see someone just picked him up 2 minutes before me. Not the guy I am playing.

So I look to see if he even needs a RB to play today...Nope...Not even close. Just picking him up! 100% in the rules, I know.

Yet, still the dick move

I disagree. Fantasy Football runs on prison rules.

Never questioned the rules.

Felt like Ortiz v Mayweather.

Smart move by a smart manager. You snooze, you lose.

A loss for you could help project him to the money. Sorry but not a dick move at all.

+1

Was this a dick move?
I dropped my kicker early in the week as I picked up another RB. I was trying to make a 2-1 trade in which I would then pick up a kicker. I couldn't make a trade but I sure didn't drop a player until this morning so that he's be on waivers for today.

When I knew an opponent had an injury I would go and pick up every possible replacement and immediately release them thus putting them on waivers for 3 days so they could not pick them up. That was pretty dickish of me.

I agree with BigFan?!?!?

Yeah, completely within the rules, but when people start doing stuff like this....well, I'd say you're taking it a bit too seriously.

That is why a league should either have a transaction limit or transaction fee.

I tried to do the same thing but Hardesty was dropped early in the week and was unvailable. I did, however, dick over Benson's owner by quickly scooping up Bernard Scott the moment I heard about the suspension. Not only is it legal, it is completely not dickish as the other 11 guys in the league would have done the same thing.

Karma struck as I lost Britt for the season and someone else just picked up Washington.

Yup! Same guy that complains about such a fee is the guy who always has the most transactions!
