And this is why I love FF. I don't think your jinxing me.... I've beaten the best in my league and lost to some of the worst... I'm playing a guy now who is winless... he's 0-8.... i'm sitting at 4-4... I won last week.... so i'm [censored]ed either way I go...

Man... i hate it when i'm right... Fitz gives me 14.... Rivers goes for for 39.... i'm down by [strike]54[/strike] 52 points to the guy who's 0-8... I've got Boldin, Maclin, and Celek... I need a miracle... sometimes its just not your year... this hasn't been mine...

edit: GB got another INT

I hate when I'm right too. I had the distinct displeasure of facing somebody who played Green Bay's defenses. I've managed to hang within 15 points in spite of that, and I have Forte and McCoy going tomorrow.

In other news... I benched Rivers on one of my other teams for the first time this year. As you mentioned, he went off for big points in spite of being a piece of shit. I'm down by 18 in that matchup, with only Maclin to hopefully save my chances. If I had kept him in there I would have locked up the win by now.

In my money league, we start 2 WR, and 2 RB. We have no flex position. My RB's are Gore, DeMarco Murray, and Willis McGahee. McGahee seems to be having a resurgence in Denver. So my question is, should I trade McGahee to sure up another position, or is Murray's stock going to go down to the point where he won't be an every week starter once Felix Jones comes back.

Picked up Bush (not Reggie)...

Solid game. Got 15 from him and 17 from Murray.

I am beyond glad I gave Vincent Jackson one more chance. I heard Floyd was banged up, figured they'd at least force some passes his way. About damn time I had a WR blow up.

Plax got me 8 & Brandon Lloyd another 8.

Brees with...25 I'm pretty sure. Again well below his projections. I guess the Saints have finally started to discover a running game. Nothing much from from Fred Davis (4)
and I'm cutting Heyward Bay. Him & Palmer don't seem to be on the same page. It appears Moore & Ford will be the primary targets.

I'm at 155 to 95 right now and all the other guy has is a kicker and Forte. So unless the Eagles really shit the bed in a way we've not seen before- I'm feeling good at 60 points up. my 5th win in a row :biggrin:

Monday morning edit... 2 guys left Celek and Maclin... down 129.05 - 81.35 .. so i'm pretty fucked... I've clearly not gotten the hang of a league that gives you points every time a player moves a muscle ....

I assume that I'm playing you in the BP Deuce. If you do lose to the worst team in the league this year, I'll tell you who you can thank. Max Powers' team is so fucking good, that he decided to give up on Julio Jones, and I picked him up just before the 1PM kickoffs. Otherwise, my woefully inept team would have gotten destroyed again this week.

I had almost picked him up myself about two hours before that and passed on it. I wouldn't have started him ahead of Colston, Maclin or Nelson, but at least it would have kept him out of your lineup. Oh well. If I had stuck with Rivers all of this would have been moot. I made a point of drafting him because I felt he was a top contributor at QB. I should have kept playing him on principle. It's when I start questioning my principles that get in trouble with roster decisions.

It's when I start questioning very basic draft strategies that I end up needing a lucky mid-season pickup to get me a shot at my second win of the season...in week 9. :smash:

I hate fantasy football

I hate reality football. My fantasy team would be awesome if the real teams didn't always fuck my shit up.

Fucking goalline vultures are killing me tonight. I have McCoy and Forte, so of course these teams have decided to dust off Marion Barber and Ronnie Brown once it's time to score a touchdown.

My deficit has closed from 15 pts. to 3.3 points. I'm another fumble away from a near sure thing being turned into a nailbiter.
