Joeling is the deliberate practice of publicly expressing pessimism about one’s fantasy football matchup—often within a group chat—with the strategic intent of deflecting expectations, influencing superstition, and inviting favorable outcomes through reverse psychology. The act typically involves exaggerated doubt, self-deprecation, or preemptive concession, despite underlying confidence in a potential victory.
The group chat immediately recognized the joeling when he claimed his season was over right after the draft.
