If you do it everyday then it’s not an addiction. If you stop and start going through withdraws symptoms then it’s an addiction. Good work, John!
Some of you know Jonathan. He’s a mentally impaired adult friend of mine. Every week of the NFL season we write out the schedule and make our picks! I won this week but we still had a pizza party! 🥳🍕
5+yrs ago I was on this never ending quest for fantasy sports content. I remember reaching out to others in the industry with no reply. It’s a horrible feeling. So I decided to create my own and make a point of interacting and replying to anybody and everybody that reaches out!
1️⃣5️⃣,0️⃣0️⃣0️⃣ holy smokes people! 🥳
Rarely do I celebrate followers. Just a number. It’s how you use your platform to influence, give back & share kindness.

content this season. More videos. More graphics. Looking forward to it all!
Got an email from the NFL this morning. They’ve given me media pass credentials for the draft!
#NFLDraft
I’m thinking of covering it from a DFS perspective. If that makes sense? No idea. More news to follow!
I’m about to do something I’ve wanted to do for years! I’ve put it off too many times.
I’m going to start in on Breaking Bad! I’m very excited friends! Wish me luck! 😁

Holy flipping smokes! It’s not the number that matters but what you do with it. I share every single thing I can when it comes to my DFS process.

Going to give away a FREE month of a premium services here

Like, share, comment, and RT! 👀
My Special Olympics buddy is 34 today! He’s very excited and happy! Help me wish him a very happy birthday! “Chris check your phone, I wonder if anyone likes my wrapping paper?” 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
@PFF
I went out on a limb in the summer and said I’d prefer Gibbs. Solely based on the way the Detroit Lions planned on using him. So far so good and here we are. I’m taking Gibbs!

Holy smokes! I’ve said it before & I’ll say it again, follower counts are useless if you’re not a good human being!
Buckle up! This 2021 NFL season is going to be great! I have your back for ALL things
#DFS
Thanks for trusting me. Thanks for following me!❤️
I'd like to let you all know I respond to every tag, tweet, DM, text, phone call & email I receive.
About 7yrs ago I started writing DFS content & was looking for help & guidance. Not one person/site replied back to me.
I've made it a point of being accessible to everyone.

I was born and raised to love, respect and support everybody. Male, female, old, young, gay, straight, impaired, disabled, black & white. I fully support any human being who is trying to grow, learn and be happy. ❤️

Anger, envy and jealousy are a real thing. One leads to the other.
What is done in the dark will always come to light.
The support you’ve shown me this football season has been outstanding.
Thank you. Thank you. The best has yet to come!
Chris Robin ❤️
What if I told you at this moment in time I’d prefer Laviska Shenault Jr. over Ja’Marr Chase. Seasonal projections separated by literally three points.
@pete4c
Tatis is on the verge of superstardom, if he’s not there already, let the kid play and learn on fly. In all my years don’t think I’ve ever seen someone get put down for hitting a home run! Let alone a grand slam! Let the kid plaaaaayyyy!!!
I’ve heard some news that NO RB Latavius Murray may be cut. Would Tony Jones then be the RB2 behind Kamara. Cheap no strings attached addition for fantasy teams. What becomes of Murray?
I find the social interactions on Twitter immensely interesting.
Verified accounts only commenting to other verified accounts.
The obsession between following to follower count.
People going out of their way to only comment but not to like.
Just some weird dynamics I’ve seen.
A few years ago I was plowing snow for a living listening to sports podcasts and doing my notes. This year I am on those same podcasts and still doing my notes! Amazing! Still blows my mind!
It shouldn't be about you paying me for my content or DFS lines. It should be about letting me help you and teach you to play on your own. I am very much aware of the time and effort I put into this. Call me crazy but I prefer the friendships made over the money.

warmly welcomes
@DetroitBeastie
as he's going all-in for the community & joining our staff!
He's going to be co-hosting shows, doing FF ranks, writing his ever-popular "Bottom of the Barrel" article, providing DFS content for new sports, & more!
As a man I want to tell other men it’s ok. It’s ok to be vulnerable. It’s ok to ask for help. It’s ok to talk about your feelings. It’s ok to need support. It’s all ok.
It happened! Truly humbled and grateful! Followers don’t make the man. His attitudes and choices do. I chose to be supportive of others. Always willing to listen and learn. Thank you all for your continued support! ☺️🙏🏻
Once I realized I can enjoy other people’s content and not look at everything as competition I had a breakthrough.
Who can be a better me than me?
Our stories are all the same. How we got here? All the same.
Only difference? Our attitudes. Be kind.
Happy Saturday! ❤️
The rationale behind Alex Collins tonight. The sudden idea of a nobody being thrust into an RB1 opportunity is fun and it’s exciting. That idea alone is so intoxicating fantasy football players go nuts and make bad decisions.
I sat with this kid today in a group home for mentally impaired adults. He loves playing this computer game called Space-bound. He talked and talked and talked for like 30 minutes about it. Kid was in heaven.
Sometimes just listening to people is enough!
I’d like to take a moment to show my appreciation for all of you who read, share, and interact with my DFS content.
Without you, the reader, there would be no DetroitBeastie. All the comments, good or bad, make me smile!
Thanks! My DM’s are always open! For anything! 😁
Thanks to the 3rd reversal team Beastie was able to select CLE RB Nick Chubb.

Jonathan Taylor, Saquon Barkley and Nick Chubb! 😳
What. A. Start. 🥳
There are so many hard working people around here. Writing, broadcasting, making graphics and rankings.
Send one of them message. Write their podcast a review.
Being supportive & kind is free! It's all free! Those gestures would mean the world to most!
Social media is a very toxic place. I’ve started to use the ole get in and get out mentality. Share my content. Share others content. Support others and split. Enjoy the day friends! Thankful for all of YOUR support! ☺️
I’ve noticed the big time FF personalities & analysts don’t catch much heat.
When they drop rankings everybody smiles & nods.
I now understand why folks aren’t excited to publish ranks. People will eat you alive.
Is getting burned & made fun of a right of passage? If so, stop.
To my late father, Ron. Thank you for the life lessons. Be prompt & passionate. Be open minded & willing to change. Learn to humble yourself before life does. Take joy in the little things. Take pride in your work & be a man of your word. Everything I do today is thanks to you.❤️
I get a lot of questions about why I’m not charging a premium for my DFS content and why I give away free lines.
Without the support of others I wouldn’t be in this position of trust.
My content is free as a thank you. We can all grow, learn and succeed together. ❤️
Would any of you kick me out of fantasy football if I said TJ Hockenson & D’Andre Swift will combine for 175 total receptions in 2021?

on winning the Swift Jersey Giveaway tonight!

I've gotten a few private messages about my NHL DFS content. The gist, "Why bother with hockey Chris no one cares."
Fair enough but truth be told my DFS content has never been for others. I write, research, and play for myself. The fact folks love my stuff is a bonus.
All love
4K followers! I don’t talk numbers often. They are fickle and they can be taken away. What can’t be taken away is all the friendships and relationships we’ve built! The stats, rankings, laughs and goofs! So happy! So excited! Looking forward for what’s to come!
