I feel your pain.In one league, I was up 7 points with Housh, C Henry, and Vinatieri to go and my opponent only had Manning. I'm now DOWN 7 points, and the game is almost over.proof the FF playoff is 100% luck
went 12-1 with this team most points scored but they #### the tank this week

Oh, and did I mention that in both of these leagues I had LT...?I feel your pain.In one league, I was up 7 points with Housh, C Henry, and Vinatieri to go and my opponent only had Manning. I'm now DOWN 7 points, and the game is almost over.proof the FF playoff is 100% luck

In another league, I was up 20 points with C Johnson still to go, and my opponent had Harrison and Vinatieri. I'm now DOWN about 13 points and the game is almost over.![]()

Un-f'ing-believeable...
WAAAAAA!I lost to the stupid LT owner, and I had Peyton and Reggie Wayne tonight. I lost by ONE POINT TONIGHT!Screw LT! Screw the total guppy LT owner that drafted him and drafted a HORRIBLE team after that and didn't ever bother to change his lineup when he had bye weeks, yet will probably win our TITLE!Im going to kill Peyton Manning. Throwing a TD pass from the freaking 2 yard line? WTF!I am gonna stalk him and attempt to kill him until hes dead. Then Im going after Cooper Manning. I hate his smugness.Add another LT owner to the list of teams that got knocked off
I had FBGs #1, #2, and #5 WRs (C. Johnson, R. Williams, and T. Holt) going for me in the same lineup. They scored me a grand total of 3 points. I had M. Barber in my lineup all week, but changed to T. Bell because of the huge difference in the rankings (Bell - #9, Barber #20). I was thinking that maybe the "experts" know something I don't. Bell scored me 1 point, while Barber scored 15. I lost by 7. Draft Dominator and some of the other products are great tools, but I'll never follow FBGs rankings again.You may want to reconsider. You'd have to take personal responsibility for your decisions, and who wants that?Note to self.....Always go with your gut, ignore FBG rankings. There are no experts when it comes to fantasy football.

OK, well at least I lost by enough points, thanks to Harrison, to at least sail off into the deep blue sea of playoff losses. It was close even if I didn't out think myself and I think if I somehow squoze enough points out of my bench, I might have come close, but somehow I don't think I would have had the balls to play Braylon at Baltimore or Galloway at Chicago over Andre Johnson or Chad Johnson.At least I messed up enough to not have to go through the pain of being up by 20+ points and losing to 3 TDs for Harrison and watching Chad Johnson leave the game.My opponent has a solid bench like me, but no one that you would have said should have started. Whereas, I consciously made two bad decisions. Starting Brad was too risky since he had already been pulled before and no way I should have started Taylor the first game back. I am not even going to say that I might have started Galloway or Braylon (both on my bench), but I am ticked that I overthought a situation. Yet again.I left 19 on the bench and I'm down by 20 and I have Rivers and he has no one. But I can't complain too much about that since he left 29 on the bench. Of course, the way it's going I might not even get a point from Rivers anyway.The Jeramy Stevens td in garbage time (9 seconds left) will probably cost me a win in the playoffs. That and Delhomme and Frye being out.ETA:![]()

That might end up costing me as well. The writing is on the wall as I am only up a few points with just Chad Johnson remaining against Harrison, TJ, and Palmer. I just hope I get beat by more than the 24 points that I left sitting on my bench when at the last minute I decided to put Chester Taylor in for Cotchery at the flex position (PPR) and put Brad Johnson in over Alex Smith for my QB2. If I lose by 24 or less (I have the tie breaker with more bench points - woo hoo, love when my bench scoring looks better than the starters
), then I am going to be so pissed as my teams week 16 matchups look awesome.

This is the VENTING thread! Why do some of you dips insist on raining on the venting parade here??I had FBGs #1, #2, and #5 WRs (C. Johnson, R. Williams, and T. Holt) going for me in the same lineup.

For a minute I thought FBG's had a crystal ball.

Well isn't that nice. TJ choked away my season just like the Bengals offense choked against the Colts. 4 MF'ing points from Housh. One more freaking yard from him and I at least tie. Add in one more yard receiving for either Torry Holt or LJ and I win outright.AAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!I lost to a guy who played Steve McNair and Darrell Jackson. Both scored a total of 0. But my 4 "studs" gave me a total of 20 points (which happens just to match what Steven Jackson scored for him).ONE POINT FROM THE FINALS, ONE POINT......................oh well, there's always next year.This is just a semi-vent since I still have a shot, but......Larry Johnson - 5 ptsTorry Holt - 5 ptsCorey Dillon - 6 ptsHave left it all up to TJ Houshmazawilla to get me 6 points to make it to the championship. My opponent had a completely aweful weekend and unless TJ comes through with at least 60 yards or a touchdown, I will lose with an even worse showing.Just show me something, TJ, please, please, please........
