Ugh. Why did you need to tell me THAT story! I have a 1 point lead, he is done and I have Boone and Bailey still to go. Fumbles are -2; Missed FGs are -1. I could bench them both but then I'd be afraid of a stat correction. Gonna be an epic collapse if I don't win and I don't want to anger the FF gods by benching them both. Winning a championship is never easy and I expect that even if I do get this one that I'll be forced to sweat it out for ~2 quarters.
P.S. Is this hobby addictive because it's so stressful or is the stress just an ancillary byproduct? I tell my wife every year that I'm gonna quit. I hate my Sunday mood swings, the way I dislike losing SO much more than I hate winning; the way my players ALWAYS seem to underperform. The fact that always having a good team means I'll experience more bad beats than I'll deliver. But then August sucks me back in. I love the competition, the endless search for narrow advantages, the thrill of finding a WW star, the two decade history of trash-talking, the planning for the perfect draft.
