Here's looking forward to another week of total futility for me! Hell, even when my team scores 138 points I lose!

Anyone want to challenge me for the bottom of the standings?

I'm doing my best! 8th place checking in!!

5-3 here. Not where i want to be but I'm getting there. Or not. Probably not.
My season is riding on Eli Manning. That's a bumpy ride.

So, apparently the ghost of DeAngelo Williams is pretty damn good. Eli is making things interesting. I need 22 points from Rivers, Woodhead, and Gould tonight to secure the victory because I didn't start Lamar Miller. Of course I didn't start Lamar Miller when he goes off for a million points, why would I??
I hope Shady & Lewis are ok though. Not for my fantasy team, but just because it sucks seeing guys get hurt.

Why does Wes Welker really want to insure he dies a horrible death at a young age?
The dude's had how many traumatic head injuries already and now he signs up with the LA, oh wait, still St. Louis, Rams to get killed some more?
They have Nick FUCKING FOLES as their QB. Their best WR is going to be a 34 year old walking concussion hazard. They are coached by Jeff "Mr. .500" Fisher.
If you're going to come back into the league to kill yourself with CTE symptoms before you're 55, why not do it for a team that's going somewhere.
I'm ranting because things like this are why I feel so icky watching football and hate myself for loving it.

damn - I had a chance to win this week.
went behind by .8 points with 2:20 left in tonight's game
and if Denver hadn't made that stupid penalty on the last minute field goal by Indy - I would have had 3 more points!!!
Took 3 points away from Vinitieri (and me) - AND assured their loss.......

I won! Thanks to Danny Woodhead being Phillip Rivers only viable option on offense that isn't hurt! God that first half last night was brutal. Not brutal in a "hard hitting good football way" brutal in those are two bad teams.
Both have some talented players, but there just isn't nearly enough on the rosters to make them even remotely competitive or fun to watch.

Joe, you're freaking rolling dude. Averaging 122 points a game? Not too shabby!

What a weekend! While Ryan could come back and beat me still, I would like to thank him, and all the opinion makers who didn't give the Bears offense a chance vs the Rams. (I didn't give them a chance either.) Looking and seeing both Cutler & Langford on his bench made me feel much better about my chances even as I watched Brandon Cooks rack up points on my bench.

Its official, this is a weird year in the NFL. Lots of teams in transition. Lots of teams riddled with key injuries.
Just nutty. Craziness.

I have a small chance. It would be a lot better if I hadn't left Langford on my bench. I overestimated the Rams defense. It looks like you will likely kick my ass.

You have AJ Green who can never be counted out, especially against the Browns. And Bernard could have a big night too. I think I'm going to win, but I never am confident until the game's over.
Langford had a massive day. Heck of a lot of fun watching him break that screen pass for the 83 yard TD run. I'm not ready to say he's the next Matt Forte, but it was cool seeing him have that extra gear that's the only thing Forte's game lacks.
Even Ka'deem Carey has been running hard for the Bears which is a nice change since he had sorta looked disinterested early on.

Unfortunately AJ Green hasn't been putting up quite the #s he did last year. I'm not expecting 20 from him.

So the damn ESPN app didn't save my roster adjustments when I tried to bench Antonio Brown for some reason

Luckily it looks like I might pull out the win anyways.
But man has the injury bug hit my RB's in the last couple of weeks. Just lost Forcett for the season and Forte has been down as well. Should make the playoffs but don't like my chances of winning it all.

This football season, fantasy and IRL has been pretty shitty. A million injuries to star or at least key players has just made the level of play pretty brutal.
We'll see if I can pull out a miracle tonight, but I doubt it.

I was just looking at the standings yesterday (before this week was posted)
I was second in the league in points scored - but sitting tied for 7th place.
I moved up a little now - but still way below my scoring.....

Yet another feather in the cap of my futile season. Last week my team exudes sucktastic yet again and this week I try to grab Stafford, don't get him, he throws 5 TD's and oh yes, I'm playing against Calvin Jones who scores 30+!

I forgot until noon, but was excited to see Sproles available yesterday's morning - picked him up and sat Starks - only cost me 5 points....
At last I didn't have Romo!

Yeah, Dez is gonna hurt me this week because of Romo's injury and well, just because the Cowboys suck right now.

Looks like I am just squeaking into the playoffs in the 6th spot.
Even if I lose next week - I think I'm still in due to the tie breaker.
Good thing - Gronk may be out next week - and I need him going forward.
