I am about to lose in the championship for the fourth time in 8 years. I will be 0-4 in the title game. Well footballguys has helped me get here, they haven't been able to help me get a title. I am done with them.

 
I think you got it wrong. Just being in the championship 4 outta 8 years is pretty incredible, if its a competitive league.

Theres a lot of luck in FF.......

Nobody cares. But, plenty will click on your thread to mock you.

Listen, I'm not one to encourage paying for fantasy info, with the amount of free info and discussion out there for consumers. But you lost because of a couple things: your decisions, and good old fashioned "bad luck".

You already pay for fantasy info. Nothing inherently wrong with that. Turning around and blaming the service you're paying for for your losses just makes you pathetic.

Especially since you've made the championship 4/8 years. That's evidence that FBG's is MORE than earning your subscription cost.

Made the championship 50% of the time because of this site? Wow, sounds terrible. You should really ask for your money back.

But seriously, it all depends on your leagues rules, but IMO, making it to the championship is what takes skill. After that, it's a clean slate and you just hope for some luck. Yeah it's frustrating losing the championship game over and over, but you're still tearing it up. If your league is playing for decent money and it doesn't pay out decent money for 2nd then you should play in another league.

Um...did I miss the championship guarantee?

Can you define how they cost you those games?

The problem isn't FBG's, the problem is that the concept of having a single week of FFL decide a league championship is completely stupid because the worst team in the league this week was the highest scoring team... hell, the guy had 2 injured guys in his lineup.

If you play in a league that doesn't award part of the prize to the highest scoring team of the season (or team with the best all-play record) then you aren't rewarding the best team.

The playoffs are 100% meaningless in FFL.

The years I've won, i've never had the best team.

The years I've lost I've frequently had the best team.

Variance is a big B.

Frankly the NFL playoffs (and many other sports playoffs - NBA excluded) aren't much better which is why we've been having many DEEPLY flawed teams winning championships over the past 10 years of parity (both Giants teams, last year's Ravens, the Steelers team that beat the Seahawks).

The answer is to modify your league rules.

Maybe you should get better. I win titles on the reg.

 
Am I the only one that read his post and thought he was completely joking? Then I read people's responses and thought maybe he wasn't...

There's no joking in the shark pool. Anybody who cracks jokes around here gets holes drilled in their boat by the owner of the site.

 
Maybe you can talk to them and they can cut you a check for what you would have won in your championship season that wasn't. I know Dodds was going to look into getting me a varsity jacket, inscribed with

"2010 & 2011

7TH HEAVEN

BACK TO BACK JACK

CHAMPIONS"

Its been taking so long because the 2012 championship just got settled in civil court where I lost, so no threepeat. I know how you feel I almost quit too.
