Bragging, venting, crowing, grieving... (2 Viewers)

I'm down 12 points heading into MNF. The other team has no one going....I have Luck. I am at 12.4 points going into that last pass. We get -2 for INT's. Luck finishes with 10.4 points and I go from a win to a loss.

Oh yeah and last week I go into MNF with a 48 point lead, the other guy has Brees. He goes for 50.

Reason number 3004 and 3005 why I hate fantasy football.

 
Drafted Charles Johnson in all of my dynasty leagues knowing that GB WRs get hurt all the time

He signs with CLE off GB practice squad two days before mass of injuries on GB WR corps

Unbelievable timing

I feel the same way. I'm in 3 leagues and in the league where I think I have my worst team, I am 5-1 and my best team in another is 3-3. Even though I am only 2 points from the top scoring team in the 5-1 league I feel like I am patchwork with David Wilson as my previous RB2 and Julio Jones going down in week 5. If Harvin comes back soon, I may be able to cobble together a legit chance at the title, but every week there is something new going wrong. The 3-3 team would be 5-1 and maybe 6-0 if I could make lineup decisions properly. FBGs has killed me their with their rankings. I know, I know, but this is a side hobby so I usually go there to break ties. Again this week, Alex Smith and Witten were above Pryor and Cameron and both had better matchups. Either one switched in wins me this week. I almost dislike this team because there are two many good players, so I am always deciding and deciding wrong.

 
In one league I am 5-1 with the most points scored. 4/6 weeks I have scored the highest or second highest points.

The last place team is 1-5 with the fewest points scored in the league. Their one win is against me when they had the highest points that week and I had the second highest. I out scored the 3rd highest by 40.

That was the week Sproles fumbled against Miami. I won on his last run then lost by .8 on his fumble. There was a score correction later and I lost by .2 points. :rofl:

 
6-0. Very lucky and scheduling has helped.

Wk 1: won by 0.75 pts.

Wk 2: Lacy goes down, Bullock only gives me 2 pts, L Fletcher only had 1 tackle + 1 tackle asst.

Wk 3: Nicks with 0 pts, thank you Brees, Demarco and Prater

Wk 4: Gotta love Brees, good call with C Clay

Wk 5: Opponent only received combined 3.6 pts from DB, DL, and LB

Wk 6: Only up about 6 pts going into MNF. Luck's INT solidified my victory.

 
It has been in the making, but I just wanted to thank the fantasy gods so far this year, even after they took away my Julio.

Only 5-1 team, 6th in overall points, negative points for to points against, and average margin of victor of 10.09 (in PPR/high scoring QB league no less). My two smallest wins have been .15 (vs Ryan/Calvin/Charles in week 3) and 4.9 (with Hoyer as my QB in week 5)

 
Just looking to brag about my RB depth so far

Jamaal Charles, CJ Spiller, Alfred Morris, Darren McFadden, Stevan Ridley, Le'Veon Bell

Yea boiii

 
Russell Wilson throws 3 tds and only puts up 18 pts because he fumbled 3 times and lost 2 of them. That's 8 pts he left on the field...I hope that's not the difference if I lose this week. :~|

 
1st three TD's today were scored by defenses. I don't have either.

On the other hand, I'm not playing against either.

I'm too smart for my own good. Matt Ryan is on my bench and Cutler is in my lineup..

You can't feel bad about that. Most owners would've started Cutler over Ryan today.

In fact, FantasyPros has 92% of experts picking Cutler over Ryan. :)

 
Facing Jacquizz Rodgers & Zack Miller so far this week. They have 3 ####### TDs.

I have Alfred Morris. He has 0 TDs while Helu has 2 in the hurry up offense. This #### just makes you wanna drink yourself to sleep.

 
What a disaster of a day

Cutler has got to be the biggest ##### in football - I haven't played this guy all year and he has done nothing but score. Put him -3 and out for the game.

Typical Cutler - he and the Bears are irrelevant for the season.

Gates & Kennan Allen - Mathews 1st RTD since last year Royal 1st TD since week 3

McCoy - Shootout in Philly ... Yeah OK

Hartline - Season high 3 TDs for Tannehill - To Gibson and Clay

 
Started Romo and Brandon marshall with Wilson and harry douglas on my bench. Also, thanks for the effort Alfred Morris and Lamar miller. Lost to the worst team in the league already

Me three. Especially in the league where I just got Gronk back and felt good about my team. Of course, Morris getting no GL love didn't help either.

Overall, I thought last year was tough, this year has been way tougher. Somehow in another league, I am the only guy who is close to the top in points and not 4-2 or 5-1. I am soon to be 3-4 with a 1QB, 2RB, 2WR, 1TE, 1 Flex with Eli (for this week, Kaep/Pryor before), APeterson, Bernard/Matthews, Dez, Demaryius, Josh Gordon, Cameron and Witten. I am playing a guy who has struggled all year, but who has AJ Green, Stafford and now Gronk back and it putting up the most points in the league. I have lost 177-165 only to see my division leader win the last two games by 1 point over the lowest scoring team that week.

Of course, my best team was 5-1 and lost Julio Jones and of course, I kept Harry Douglas on the bench, so pretty sure I will be toast in that league as well.

These 3 teams have been ridiculously frustrating with injuries, bad decisions and of course seemingly playing the wrong teams every week. I wish I was 1-5 in a couple so I could relax.

 
I need a Ray Rice TD, and of course he can't get it in on 2nd & goal, so Flaccid has a 1 yd TD pass on 3rd down.

Dude I hear ya on Allen and Gates. Cost me today big time. I was gonna bench one last minute for Gronk and opted not to since my plan all week was take a wait and see approach on Gronk. Should have known two pass catchers vs Jax is not a good move. Jags are so bad that teams have no need to throw in the 2nd half.

 
Had a ridiculously bad week in my PPR league. As did my opponent. But he has already beat me with Reggie Wayne in the first half. Fun fact: not one player on my team scored a TD today. Brady, McCoy, Bush, Gordon, Garcon, Tim Wright (glad I didn't grab Jordan Reed as my Jimmy Graham replacement!), Ellington.

And in my other league, I'm probably losing to the last place guy who doesn't even check his roster anymore and had Roddy White and Randall Cobb in his lineup.

 
I had Gonzo in about five of my Fanduel line ups, based on all my sites rating him so high. But I saw what the Jets did to him last week and so I pulled Gonzo out of all my line ups. Thank goodness I did. I feel good about that. I think Gonzo will struggle the rest of the season.

I didn't even look my Gronk team until tonight and of course, I have Cutler on the bench all year rolling up nice points behind Brees to play this week and I get 0.4 points. My opponent has Locker, who of course gets healthy for this week, so he plays him instead of Brady (amazing call) and so he gets an extra 20 points and I lose about 25 (what Cutler was averaging). I am losing by around 20, so that 45 point swing is pretty much my fantasy season in a nut shell. This is the same league where Romo and his 500 yard performance (50+ points) beat me and Knowshon's 35 points last week beat me. I just can't buy a break. I'm pretty much packing up the tent for this year.

ETA: Of course, same team, Wayne has an easy 60 yard TD if Luck doesn't under throw him and of course he gets hurt on the attempt to catch the underthrow. If Wayne is out for a long time, this team is pretty much done.

I had a 50 point lead with Peyton and Demaryius left. Enemy has Luck, Wayne and ADP. I liked my chances, not so much now.

 
I need 8 more yards from T Rich to win this. And I'm sadly sweating it. I swear this guy is getting firmly planted on my bench. Don't care if I have to start freaking Mendenhall.
