FPL Cautionary Tales I could already see the troll-writing on the wall when Thiago missed the pen GW1. But now it's a neon sign as the unadvisable path I've chosen this week involves Haaland replacing him. Also makes me 😂 to see the 🌎 favoring Hall > Thiaw after he fked me over last year when I did

FPL Louisville, Kentucky. Yup Kentucky.
I'm not gonna FH but if you're thinking about it this should be helpful. I'm back on my unconventional (read: foolish, imprudent, risky) bullshit. I won't share details bc I wouldn't want to put any stupid ideas into anyone's head. If I made a video the channel would be called FPL Cautionary Tales.
I've built a Free Hit draft I love for GW3! 🔥 ➡️ youtu.be/xXsmF_PgVac
I know I’m always bigging these guys up but this one was exceptionally useful to me. It also perfectly displays all of the reasons why, in a space full of great CCs, I vibe with them the best. Sharp as hell w/ equal helpings of strong opinions and humility. Critical, probabilistic thinking, funny…
The Rollercoaster Continues! | #FPL GW3 🎢 @fplpricey.bsky.social & I speak through the Naahland FH vs WC dilemma, who's worth us buying in (is it Cherki? Is Foden worth a look?) if selling Man Utd assets is a good idea & if you TC the 🤖 this week! ❤️/♻️ appreciated, Bluesky 💙💜! pod.fo/e/5ad994
Benched Groß. One of my favorite players. 13 pts is the highest anyone on my team has scored so far. Only two GWs in and I've used the BB. One guy got 130% of my BB score the other week. 💀 [struts off singing "Pinky Ring" by UGK for a lil ritualistic yubitsume action] #fpl #yakuza #longlivepimpc
Pretty sure the data will support my feeling that Pedro only misses that shot when I own him 🫠🤣
Isak gets me my 2nd goal of the season. En fuego, baby! #phew I figured I would WC yesterday but then I went to poker and was at a great table, so forgot all about it. Missed a couple price rises but now I think I'd rather save that chip despite immediate costs. 2 much uncertainty, 2 many bums.
Bench three of these: Shaw, Van Hecke, Tzolis, Ballard, Gomez, Gross (listed in order of the xP I've seen). I'm least interested in benching Tzolis. #nowronganswers

WGTA night! 🔥 @fplpricey.bsky.social's off to an absolute flyer with 93 for GW1 (and I had a moderately successful one too) 🚀 We're live at 8:45 on YouTube to pick over the bones of the #FPL opening weekend and preview GW2, including discussion on what we now know (nothing?) See you there bluesky 💜💙
Isak not taking that pen was the charred remnants of my FPL steak finally shriveling enough to slide between the grill grate bars and into the burning coals. How do you not want to build the confidence of your 5 trillion dollar striker who was injured and shitty all year? Idgaf about your answers.
I thought my eyes were playing tricks on me early in the game but finally realized Haaland had cut his hair around 80’. In case you missed it and were wondering how involved he was. I guess he finally got tired of women imitating him on social media, eh?
Commiserating with the friend that got me into this #fpl mess. He’s not doing quite as poorly as I am though. I really did think I was cooking… Every single other defender I considered smoked these fish. But Arsenal looked good so all is fine in football.
A wise person places their attention on the positives. So I’m focusing on Mbeumo blanking as I nervously removed him from my squad at the last min. And very grateful I BB so I could get 1 pt each from Shaw and JPVH bc they outscored 2 of my starters (Thiago/Ballard) A wise person is delusional.
Which childhood trauma do y'all reckon is responsible for our love of #fpl? So much fun. All of the torment. Does it get any better than this?
6:59 am out here in New Mexico and I just woke up. Turned on the Hull Man U game as soon as my eyes opened. 🤣🤣 What a perfect way to start a season. This right here is quintessential FPL. BB Maguire and Shaw, cap Bruno… all you can do is laugh at the chaos and make yourself a nice pot of coffee.

OFFER: "Free" $500 available To anyone that has their overconfident "I told you idiots" ready for No-Haaland managers when Haaland teams are ahead in GW5... bet me now. Give me 35-1 and I'll take the other side. Or we make 2 bets, even money. I pick the other bet that I'm equally certain about.
Phew! I was so busy multitasking that the deadline came and went without me realizing it. So I didn't get to do my normal last-minute "idiot walk" to confirm everything was set up properly. Was mostly worried I hadn't hit the BB button but wouldn't have been shocked to see the wrong squad, either.
"Think long, think wrong" is the theme for my #fpl start. Embraced impulsivity and went w/ the one structure I hadn't considered yet. No Haaland, but will be starting 3 fwds. Also dropped Bryan "ThiccBoi" Mbeumo who was in all my drafts and always kills me. As the saying goes: No butts, so glory.
Should probably get serious about figuring out which structure I'm starting off with. Still might just randomize between Haaland or no Haaland but maybe Sam can help me get there "on my own". Currently don't have the big dude in there.
Going live now! 🚨👋 ➡️ youtube.com/live/ZAh1eNC...
Take Tzolis, Cityzens. Don't ask what was wrong with Man City or Maresca today. Ask what was right with Arsenal. Y'all are gonna be just fine. #coyg
It will help you cultivate resilience better than anything aside from women or poker. Orrrrrr it could help you finally face and accept the fact that you should be on antidepressants. Quality of life improvements await you, either way. Enjoy!

I thought he was rapping "Parents Just Don't Understand" at first, so I'm following and joining. I know the Venn diagram of "liked American rap in the 80s" + "plays FPL" + "uses bluesky" + "remembers lyrics from 4 decades ago" is just me, but I live for inside jokes with only myself. Get in here.
Oksy here's the situation nobody else has joined my #bluesky #totp #fantasyfootball league as yet. Now as a very petty man I am fine with this as if I'm the only one in it then I win. But if you feel like having a go the link is below fantasy.premierleague.com/leagues/auto...
FPL is full of ppl that would play poker and constantly say shit like "I hate pocket jacks" and "I never win with big slick". Tbf poker is also full of 'em. No matter how hard you try or how smart you are, you aren't entitled to outcomes. But like Kahneman said "Humans are irrational fuckwits." 🫠
Y’all know the drill
Join @fplpricey.bsky.social + me tonight for our second show in a week (due to an ill timed family holiday for me next week), focusing on our #fpl drafts, chip ideas and 6 simple rules to hopefully not have a rubbish (nb, can't guarantee good!) season! ⭐ Live at 8:45, see you then bluesky 💜💙
Just 2 mins into the latest from @whogottheassist.bsky.social and @fplpricey.bsky.social and my mind is already blown. All this time I've been thinking "edge piece" was a reference to edging. But I guess it's about puzzles 🤯 I'm sure I'm not the only one, so wanted to share. Watch their vids! #fpl

go.bsky.app/NAXPQHz With the FPL preseason kicking into high gear wanted to share some accounts that we find to be extremely helpful. Let us know if you’d like to be added! It is the most exciting time of the FPL year with the Festive Fixtures being a close second. How are those drafts looking?
Despite the awkward format due to character limits, I’m quite content with No Coventry4 Old Men as a team name this #fpl season. But I’d be tempted by Groß Points Blanked if I was still looking. And if the movie had been popular or recent enough for anyone to catch the reference ofc
Man, I got just a little bit too high and finally watched this damn #Obsession movie. Jesus. I need an exorcism. Relationships are wack.
