Get Kimani Vidal in your fantasy football lineup while you still can

Everyone wants to get their money’s worth. When you pay a lot for an expensive meal, you want to eat it all. And what you don’t eat, you want to take home for later. Otherwise, you’re just wasting a part of that expense.

It is this rationale that the Madman uses to explain our golf game: We are determined to get our money’s worth. We get more shots per dollar in our round than anyone we are playing with. That’s why we score so high, because we are frugal. It has nothing to do with the fact that we stink at golf.

This line of thinking also is what makes it hard to part with some fantasy players who aren’t performing well, or whose usefulness has reached its end.

For example: If you used a decent draft pick on, say, Kaleb Johnson, how many weeks did it take before you dropped him? For us, at least a week or two too long because the desire to get our money’s worth — in this case, the draft expense — was greater than the need to recognize sunk cost.
