Bragging, venting, crowing, grieving... (1 Viewer)

You know that 2 yard dump-off to Mikael Leshoure just before the 2 minute warning? His last snap of the game?

Lost 75.18-74.98.

:cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry:

 
Thought I was doomed heading into MNF in my main league up by 20 while my opponent had Stafford and Calvin left in a 0.5 PPR league. Thank you Bears! :)

 
First lost of the season. Thanks Stafford! I need to learn to not be afraid to play match-ups with my top running backs. Fred Jackson had a prime match up at TN and I left him on the dang bench. :wall:

Bragging? Sitting top in points this week with Marshall to go, and desperately need a win at 3-3.Venting? Opponent is second in points this week, 3 points behind me, and have Bears D to go. Jerk got great games out of Cobb and Gore, and better than expected games out of Dwyer & Heath Miller to keep the heat on me. How bout #####ing? Need this win to go to 4-3, and STILL be 2 games back of my division leader who improves to 6-1 by allowing easily the lowest points in the lead. He's allowed 50 less points than the worst team in the league (0-6, now 7) has scored...

And now, the crowing.HOLY ####, most exciting Monday Night Finish I've had in 12 year of this Re-draft home league, and that includes my 3 championship wins. Stafford and his fellow Lions just do everything they can to give points to my opponents Bears D, despite Marshall blowing up too and doing his part. Late I'm leading 164.28 to 160.26. Stafford throws a pick, lead down to 2. Stupid Stafford gets the ball back. He can throw a pick if he wants for a .02 win for me, but he TAKES A DAMN SACK. Down to 1.02 lead. They get inside the 20, Bears D still holding an 11 point bonus for shutout. Stafford almost throws a pick intended for Pettigrew that would've ended it, then MERICIFULLY HITS BROYLES FOR THE TD.I win 164.28 to 160.26 (2 highest scores of the week) after the Points Bonus goes down. Never celebrated a damn onside kick so much in my life.All this to improve to 4-3, despite leading the league in points. Okay I'm done.
 
I feel like bragging. Somehow I got Brandon Marshall for Vick in a trade for my 2-QB league. He's got FOUR top 15 WR's and #### for QBs. I'll be rolling with RG3 and Luck from here on out.

 
Pretty happy that I managed to pull off a win after getting a 0 from Vernon Davis on Thursday night. I'm now 6-1, even though my team has put up it's worth totals of the year over the past two weeks (I was the lowest scorer last week, and 9th out of 12 this week). I'm hoping things start to turn around a little this week after a couple tough ones.

 
Something changed in espn scoring at some point last night went from 3-1 on the weekend to 1-3. Those three losses by a combined 5 points. FML.

 
Lost MJD as my only real running back.

Luckily Jennings is on the waiver wire. I'm going all in on waivers this week. Without him I have no chance at anything this year the way Stafford and my WR's are playing.

 
In my only "big" money league, the average pts per week = 81.6. My opponents average pts per week = 97.1. In a 12 team league, 97 points has only been eclipsed 15 times in 7 weeks. My total pts against is 680. The next closest is 603. Regardless, my team is still pretty bad.

Damnit if I didn't do the exact same freaking thing. I had Green in, then came to my senses and had Martin in all day and then somehow talked myself out of it about 5 minutes before the game started. With Harvin, I would have a huge lead with just 2 guys going. I was actually worried about the Vikings D. :bag:By the way, where was this Viking run D earlier in the game?

Started Martin and picked up Tampa D from waivers.

40pts between them, in a league where 90pts usually wins. Also got 13pts from Barth and 6pts from Jared Allen, so have 59pts with 8 players left to go.

:thumbup:

 
Started Minnesota Defense and am -3 going into Sunday.

If that weren't enough, my opponent snagged Cobb on the WW.

Waaaaaa. :cry:

 
I don't know if this is a brag, but there is nothing better than going through all of my leagues and seeing that no one started Doug Martin or Adrian Peterson against me last night.

I can imagine that it would really suck to have to stare at Martin's massive score for the next few days.

 
Worse friggin luck this year. And now, when it has all come down to the wire for me, I am staring at a weather potentially being an issue for my team @PHI

- Drafted Matt Ryan & Roddy White

- Traded bench players W. McGahee & M. Bennett for Julio Jones

- Weekly Team: QB Ryan/TN-QB, RB: Rice, Charles, Pierce, Hillis, Hunter. WR: White, Jones, Wallace, Bowe, Gordon, Britt. PK: Zeurlein, DST: SD, TB, PHI

Started out 4-0 with what I thought was a world-beating team. Lost my last 6 games (2 wks of dbl weeks). 4th in overall scoring. 1st in overall scoring against.

It is amazing it is all coming down to a hurricane in Philly. I lose 3 of those 6 games by 7pts or less - all because of Philly Defense BLOWING. I just could not sit them though. I could not figure it out. How the heck was this happening with so much individual talent?

If that storm comes through and destroys any chance at real passing numbers it will have been my worst luck since I drafted Drew Brees & Reggie Bush the year of Katrina.

so glad I started DMartin (and ADP as well but no way I'm sitting him obvi). Almost benched him for Alex Green lol. It's nice to go into Sunday with the lead I have, although my opponent die play Connor Barth! (lolol). Now if DMC can turn it around my RB's will be complete.

 
Ray Rice & AJ Green on BYE this week.....but Doug Martin got my week started off w/ a bullet. COME ON McGahee & Luck...need you guys to anchor my crappy WRs this week.

 
Never again will I draft a WR or TE in the first round. Megatron and Graham are killing me.

I didn't believe in the Madden curse until now. It's bad enough he's not scoring TDs, but it's not possible for a guy this talented to have zero catches and yards in a game is it?

 
WHy oh why did I not just draft Gronk ahead of Megabust?

Getting hammered by Gronk and Richardson today while Calvin again does little to nothing.

 
Was only lucky enough to land Megatron in one league, and ended up with Titus Young in the others. Not feeling so bad about it now.

 
With only jimmy graham left i have scored 53 points in a league where the average score is about 130. wouldnt be surprised if this is the worst score in the league's 4 year history
