Need a third person
I’ve been listening to this podcast for a long time and like it a lot, but I have been getting pretty frustrated lately. It really bothers me that Bogs is so devoted to his stance of playing in short windows based on the rationale that dynasty leagues often don’t last. Every time Pat describes himself as an ‘age-ist’ or a ranking debate comes down to Boggs not caring about age, I want to pull my hair out. Age-ism is basically a principal component of competent dynasty analysis. First of all, not all dynasty leagues fold, and people listening to this podcast in some random offseason month are probably likely to be in real committed dynasty leagues. Talking about (and borderline advocating) the win immediately bc the league will fold approach so much is probably putting ideas in peoples heads! Get that bad juju out of the universe! Second, it’s a total black hole for actual dynasty analysis. Imagine if you followed a podcast about hydrogen vehicles, and one of the hosts was an expert who talked about emerging car technologies and the other cohost spent their time talking about gas vehicles because hydrogen vehicles aren’t guaranteed to reach the market. It ensures that a large number of rankings differences and player perspectives are differentiated by this one thing, which makes it come up all the time and hinders having substantive debate that take dynasty discussions honestly. I’m not saying Bogs is completely wrong - many dynasty leagues do fold. But i bet most of your listeners would like to spend more of their time hearing about what to do in an actual dynasty league rather than a 3 year and fold league. I’m not just going to complain… I have a few proposals. 1. Bogs, I bet you are in at least a few dynasty leagues that have been going on for a long time and have no chance of folding. Could you maybe pretend that you’re making rankings/decisions/opinions based solely on those leagues? You could even mention at the top of every show (if you feel the need) that it can be wise in startups to sort of average dynasty rankings and redraft rankings if its not clear the league will hold. 2. Get a third person or have a guest on more episodes, that way the ‘leagues fold, you should mostly play like it’s redraft’ perspective is only a third of the content. Been listening to the show for a long time and really like/respect both of you, but hoping this one important aspect can change a bit.
