Ode to Amari Cooper- in the tune of "Hallelujah"

You should have had a whole lot more,
You'd almost chilled me to the core,
But finally you made a score,
Another one for forty more.

Amari Pooper.
Amari Pooper, Amari Pooper
Amari Pooper, Amari Pooper

I drafted you and OBJ,
My team went out like JFK,
And still I put my trust in you,
You scored once then you gave me two.

Amari Pooper.
Amari Pooper, Amari Pooper
Amari Pooper, Amari Pooper

So now you're just a trade away,
Another team, another day,
I'll always remember you,
When I'm squeezing out a number 2.

Amari Pooper.
Amari Pooper, Amari Pooper
Amari Pooper, Amari Pooper

That closing start of the week had me dying XD lmao

[jeremybalsley]

Jeez mike, you've been hitting the gym like a boss! Also, I'd like to give a shout out to the shirt, looking fly bearded one!

[mailollij]

Who should I start at the following positions?

2nd WR: Desean Jackson (TB) at Bills, Mohamed Sanu or Taylor Gabriel (ATL) at Patriots or Eric Decker (Ten) at Browns?

Flex RB position: Legerette Blount or Wendell Smallwood (Phi) vs Redskins or Frank Gore (IND) at Jaguars or Dion Lewis (NE) vs Falcons?

[MoneyGirlie]

Jason DID say a couple weeks You were right in being confused Mike!

[roberts.]

I feel like Andy thinks he's always right, Mike is entitled to his own opinions, didn't like how they tried throwing shade on Mike about drew breeze.

[patrickbrazeau]

Since starting to listen, I haven't won... My wife has, thanks guys

[zayuh_stod]

I’m one of those he fantasy owners who suffered from the loss of Aaron Rogers. I picked up Tyrod Taylor from the waiver but then I had a trade go through (Cohen for Wentz). Should I play the matchup with Taylor? Or go with Wentz because he’s the better QB? Thanks!

[ericjohnson]

Im on par with Andy's thinking this week. I did the same thing with New Orleans and Larry Fitzgerald

[dsauce]

I thought the Boom Boom kicker would be Dan Bailey for sure this week. Damn! Guess I was wrong. :-))

[mattcutzz]

Which 3 RBs would you start: A.Kamara, C.Hyde, J. Ajayi, M. Gordon

[joeevans]

I am in last place in a 12 team league and made what I believe to be a blockbuster trade with the #1 team, and I want you to determine if I'm nuts for doing so. Although AB is near and dear to my heart, I traded Antonio Brown. Desperate times call for desperate measures. Here is the transaction:
I traded:
Antonio Brown Pit - WR
Aaron Jones GB - RB
I received:
Kareem Hunt KC - RB
Adrian Peterson Ari - RB
Here is my new roster: Prescott, Bryant, D. Thomas, D. Martin, K. Hunt, J. Reed, A. Peterson, M. Gillislee, T. Pryor, F. Gore, C. Thompson, J. Stewart, T. Rawls.
I love your show and haven't missed a youtube episode in the past two years. It was hard to part with AB and I miss him already, but I think the value I receive sufficiently honors his memory.

[untouched]

Start Wilson or goff? Also start cowboys defense or bills defense this week?

[jorhed]

4 RB's and 3 Slots... Who should I start? Doug Martin, Adrian Peterson, Jerick McKinnon or Leonard Fournette (Questionable - Game time decision... potential for reduced # snaps)??

[GameStreit]

Love the show. I have concerns about Hyde with all the coach talk about Brieda. A league mate loves the 49ers. What are your thoughts on trading Hyde and Watkins for Mixon and Baldwin? 0.75 PPR re-draft.
