All I needed was for Larry Fitzgerald and Vernon Davis to catch a couple more balls for a couple more yards. Their 3 for 20 and 2 for 4 stat-lines are enough to drive a man insane. Whisenhunt is a moron. My only hope is the Cards go 0-6 and Mr. Moustache is on the hot seat and is forced to throw the ball come week 7 (if I can still hang with some W's during that span). The Niners are hopeless, I bought into the VD hype and am screwed.

All i needed was freakin' Nate Kaeding to make this &%§"?\ 33 yarder but he somehow got this kick blocked... now i lost by a friggin' 2 points against an opponent i never even dreamed about beating cause his team is such a force... now i traded him for Mason Crosby...

So it's 1st and goal from the 5 for the Ravens. Minute and change left. I've got Todd Heap, and my opponent has McGahee and a 1 1/2 point lead. I'm sure you watched the game, so you know what happened. McGahee for 2, McGahee for 1. Boller throws. Touchdown Todd Heap! A lovely catch in the back of the end zone. But the refs refuse to raise their hands and allow me full exultation. I figure a review is coming, and I'm sure Heap got two feet down. Figure the flag is for PI on Cincy, and will be declined after the review. BUT WAIT! Back judge makes a downright evil and offensive PI call on Heap, disallowing the TD. You've got to be kidding me. Incompletion on 4th, and I'm rocking on the couch with my head in my hands, in a place somewhere between Sylvia Plath and Don Zimmer. BUT WAIT! It's a make-up interference call on Cincy, and here we go again. McGahee stuffed for the umteenth time this red zone possession. Boller drops a half step and guns the ball point blank at Heap's back shoulder like he's going for an OUT in dodgeball. Heap spins and throws up his mitts in self defense, rebound, ball hovers in the air while three Bengal defenders hang on my boy like Ewoks trying to take down an Imperial Walker. Heap flails at the ball, a Bengal linebacker swoops in for the pick. Ravens lose and so does Bermuda Chub.

And that's what makes FF Great! I had Mcgahee and Fitz going against D. Williams, down by only 2 thanks to the Bears giving 1 pt back. This has "winna-winna-chicken-dinna" written all over it against an opponent I am 0-4 against. I'm just lickin' my chops all day! Then Musa Smith vultures a TD and Willis don't get in. Mcgahee 2 Demetrius 1. I'm starting to find it hard to breath. All we need is Larry to get 50 yds, just 1 pt. because I have him beat on bench points (yeah, I'm the KING of bench points). You all know what happened next......On to next week!

My season in the league I commish picked up right where Season 1 left off. My opponent's players played the games of their life, while mine decided to lay eggs. (Marc Bulger, Steven Jackson and especially Lee Evans, I'm looking at you!) I went against a team with Tony Romo, Reggie Wayne, LaMont Jordan, and Adrian Peterson (MN).

AND I go against LT this week.

I had Heap (posted on Page 2). That score being called back for Offensive PI cost me my fantasy matchup. I lost by 5 points in a league where all TDs are worth 6. Almost identical events took place at my house during this final series of plays. I feel your pain.
