####in Kyle Orton...4 points so far and in the 4th quarter
I start Big Ben one week, Orton goes off... I start Orton the next, Big Ben goes off.... Yeah, I started Orton this week... so tired of making the wrong move. I should be fired as a coach.

been doing the same with flacco and orton.started orton this week.looks like i'm going to the toliet bowl even though i'm the top scoring team in the league.rest of the league is delighted to not watch me make playoffsorton, flacco. ray rice, arian foster, calvin johnson are all going to the toliet bowl.
 
The winner of my matchup determines the division champion. I started Chris Johnson, Fred Jackson, Brandon Lloyd, Dwayne Bowe for a TOTAL of 21.5. Left Bradshaw and Best on the bench.

 
my starting lineup must be like TD kryptonite.

edit to add: officially one and done in the playoffs.

vick on thursday had me sittin pretty with 33 pts.

ended the day on sunday with a total of 88 pts

the kicker? opponent had manning tossing int's all over the place and bowe that put up a fatty 0, and he still beat me by 4.

it's been one of those seasons. glad it's over. bring on the lockout, i need a new hobby.

Same for me. It has cost me 2 wins already.
 
Had a mess to chose from for RBs and WRs Chose to start Goodson, James Jones, Randy Moss. Left Ivory, Driver, Lynch on my bench. Moss will not see the light of my starting lineup the rest of the year, I don't care how "good" the match up is. :wall: :confused:

 
Started Goodson over McFadden in one league, lost the reg season championship by 5 pts. ETA: Oh yea, not that I had a better choice but Philip Rivers and the Bolts crapping the bed didn't help me either.

Started Maclin over Ivory as my Flex on my second league, lost out the last spot on the playoffs by 3 pts.

Norv Turner is a big dummy.

I hate you Norvel.

Signed,

Tolbert Owner Expecting You Would Have Researched Strengths and Weaknesses of the OAK Defense and Gameplanned Accordingly.

 
I dropped Lynch and picked up Wells.

Best upgraded to probable last week didn't play at all and this week I drop him and he looks to be back to full speed.

signed,

frustrated no 2nd RB having owner.

PS: Dez Bryant's fractured ankle warms my heart also especially considering I started him over Wallace because of all the gusty 30mph winds predicted by weather.com.

edit to add the PS after watching Wallace make a 30 yard reception. sheesh.

I guess talking about the bad calls isn't allowed in a game thread?
Pretty sure it was less about that and more about a couple idiots showing up to make it another "your QB's a rapist!!!" thread.Just a guess.Or maybe it was just a fat finger, as it's now back up. :towelwave:

starters: Turner, Tolbert, and Felix...

on the bench! and i called Cecil and Sigmund this morning! ;p

J Stew

M Bush

T Choice

all 3 outscored those others, down 6. My opponent is done and up 6, i gots Hernandez tomorrow....

toasty!!

 
Going to finish with 3rd most points in the league and in 7th place because of the highest points againts in league history. Guy who has the least points scored makes the playoffs if he hangs on tonight. He has the least points scored against. So much ####### luck involved in when you play someone.

 
I already have the playoffs secured, but a win against the worst team in the league would have given me the 3 seed, and a first round game against a team that has been destroyed by injuries...making it basically a gimmie. Instead, I am losing to the worst team, and the team that managed to sneak into the 5 seed (that I will now be playing) is loaded with Anquan Boldin, Brandon Lloyd, Jeremy Maclin, and Reggie Wayne at receiver. To add to that, he has Flacco, meaning he will have the Flacco/Boldin connection against HOUSTON next week, as well as having Lloyd neutralizing most of what Kyle Orton can do as my QB.

I think I'm destined for an early playoff exit.

My only glimmer of hope is that somehow the current #3 team will score less than 15 points with the Patriots defense and Rob Gronkowski, while at the same time I score more than 15 with Santonio Holmes (that would give us the same record, but I would have a higher overall point total).

Of the players who screwed me this week...

- Ray Rice

- Mike Williams Seattle

- Kyle Orton

- Dan Carpenter

- Mike Thomas

I benched Peterson even though they said he was playing, I figured he wouldn't get a ton of work and I started Gerhart. I lost the total points prize BY 1 POINT!!!! Been that kind of year

Other league lost the final 3 weeks to miss the playoffs on a tie breaker.

Benched Lynch this week for Felix, lost Heap on the first play and lost Nicks 2 weeks ago :lmao:

8 point lead with Shayne Graham against Santonio.

I'm really nervous.

IF I hadn't decided to get cute and start Mo Morris over Blount, I would be fine. STUPID call.

ETA: if I hadn't been screwed by Orton I'd be fine too.

Steve Smith (NYG), MSW, BMW, & now Dez....I can't find enough WR's to start each week.

Doesn't matter as I'm about to miss the playoffs unless Keller can manage to have a great game tonight.

 
Awesome decision by me to sit Sydney Rice and play Blair White. I'm a friggin' genius. That decision might end my season. :lmao:

 
another game where I was projected to crush my opponent and some no names on the other team have career days. #### Chris Ivory. last week I played LT thinking I would get a game like that against horrible CIN and I get nothing, then this scrub goes off @ CIN for 100 and 2 TDs. WTF. Also, I would like to give a big FU to San Diego. way to lay down like dogs at home to the raiders. Yes I played the SD defense and Tolbert.. :angry:

I started BMW over Boldin. Boldin does nothing for weeks and then goes over 100 with a TD? BMW gets hurt and puts up a goose egg. My other WR was Bowe. I had twin goose eggs on the score sheet. Not pretty.

 
Bowe & Eli killed my chances at winning my division this week, but worst was last weeks MNF game when VD got 5 fantasy points in the 1st quarter and nothing for the remainder of the game. That cost me the $500.00 you get for winning the divison. :(

I have also had some tough losses due to ELisha. A couple weeks back I was needing 24 with Eli and bradshaw to play. they both stunk and I lost. screw the giants
 
Michael Vick's sack at the end of the game Thursday cost me 1 point. I still don't understand him going from 51 rushing yards to 48 on a play he was handing the ball off as they're running the clock out. His lineman steps on his foot and he falls and is touched for the sack. Also Todd Heap giving me a 0 last night. I lost the game by 1 point and I'm now out of the playoffs.

 
Had 3 tough decisions in one PPR league...

Santonio Holmes vs. Fred Jackson @ Flex

Hernandez vs. Olsen @ TE

Giants vs. Charges @ DST

I picked wrong in every case (thanks to FBG rankings!) and it cost me 37 points so far (after Hernandez's touchdown).

I still won, but I hate leaving this many points on the bench. TE & Def decisions were just stupid.

 
As if I didn't hate Sanchez enough before this game he goes and throws three picks tonight and I will not go to the playoofs now because my opponent has the NE defense. I am now down 1 and cannot advance.

 
Finally sat Pierre Garcon this weekend for Danario Alexander. Pierre goes off fot 8 catches and a TD in the first half and Sam Bradford has his worst game of the year. Go into Monday night with a 30 point league on the absolute LAST person in our league Id want to loose to and Brady goes for 300+/4 TDs. Still make the playoffs but loose the #1 seed. 45-3? #1 defense? Come on Jets!

 
After the final week of what has been one of the most frustrating seasons of my fantasy career, it naturally came down to a total points tie breaker. The 6th and final playoff spot goes to a team which scored a total of 1317.30 on the season. My final points totaled 1317.15.

1.5 fantasy points or two whole yards has me on the outside looking in. Unbelievable.
