Somehow my opponent swapped out a player that he played this afternoon (Benn) for Harvin on Tuesday. After the game was over. That is utter and complete BS.

maybe refresh your browser

No, it wasn't that. It was the live scoring. It updated all day by itself but never updated the lineup.

Which website?

Fanball. Commissioners choice.

Fanball sucks ###!!! How many live scoring links do you have to click on before you actually get to live scoring. Keep trying to get our commisioner to switch but he stays for the past seasons league history........and 14-0 on the season and the false start on NO left tackle will likely cost me the Bowl.

 

[Dez]

Started Boss over Gronk.... changed it at 1159.I'm up by 4pts and he has Colston tomorrow night. My only hope is that Colston goes for 22 pts so that I don't have to look back at that mistake as the one that cost me the Championship.

How does 21 yards sound ? Colston losing a TD on a penalty. You have to be very happy today.

THANKS COLSTON!

THANKS MORENO!

THANKS KEVIN BOSS!

THANKS COWBOYS DEFENSE!

THANKS RASHAD JENNINGS!

THANKS MEACHEM AND JAMES JONES FOR MAKING ME FEEL EVEN WORSE FOR STARTING MORENO OVER YOU!

I DEDICATE MY 2010 SEASON TO YOU GUYS! #### YOU ALL!

Just thought I'd count all the ways ineptitude cost me a championship by 3 points last night with Brees, Turner, and the Falcons Defense going against Roddy.

- Falcons cant tackle Brees in the endzone unblocked for the easy safety.

- Brees touchdown called back on a false start.

- Turner fumbles on the 1.

- Saints forget which number Roddy White wears until the second half, particularly single covering him in the red zone for some inexplicable reason.

Damnit.

 

[Clorox]

Wait. When did the overturned Colston TD happen? How many yards was it?

 

[hip80]

Kevin Boss freakin goose egg, Mike Tolbert (I'm glad you're OK) but negative pts never help, Chicago D not so hot...

 

[DexterDew]

doesn't look good for me tonight since i'm going against ADP and Jackson.

i hate the randomness [re: luck] of FF when the #1 team in points and record (11-2) gets bounced in the finals by a 6-7 team. i would like to personally "thank" V Jackson, Colston, R Jennings, Lewis and CHI Def for all tanking week 16 (so much for my theory of playing players still in the playoff hunt).

 

[brainee]

Spot saved when my league high scoring team loses to the Vick/Webb combo on the worst playoff qualifier.

And saved for my other championship game team that needs a great game from McCoy. I was a huge favorite, but bombs by Brees, VJax, Wayne, R Jennings, and SD DEF have given me my year-worst score at the worst possible time. It'll be a double whammy as I watch Reid underuse McCoy yet again, and Vick take all the TDs for himself.

EDIT: OK, I went 1 for 2. All things considered, from strictly a fantasy perspective I guess I'll take that. Though as an Eagles fan, I didn't want to win that way.

 

[notdarkyet]

Vick with a season low performance to this point. Awesome. Combine that with two horrible last second coaching moves, and my regular season dominator is about to lose. Feel like throwing up.

 

[Fragis Frodum]

Mornhinweg is a genius. Totally abandon the run game. ####### rat looking mother####er.....

 

[Mjolnirs]

Went into tonight needing 30 points from Peterson to advance to the finals. I got 18 out of him.

But, my gripe is the Viking defense! They have been hiding all year so I naturally start Chicago's defense hosting the Jets. Completely out of the question to start the Vikings at Philadelphia.

I get 2 from Chicago and 24 on the bench with Minnesota. I lost by 12.

 

[gdegraw]

Lost championship game by 5 pts after Colston TD called back and Sydney Rice TD overturned.

 

[zftcg]

Went into tonight down 28 with my Webb to his Akers. Part of me almost hoped Webb crapped the bed so that I wouldn't be able to blame my loss on starting SD D over NE. But no, I ended up losing by 7. So it's all on you, Chargers. If you guys had played even a minimally effective game, I would have won. You now have the rare distinction of losing me both my survivor pool (vs Oakland back in Week 5) as well as my fantasy championship. Guess Ron Burgundy was right.



The one silver lining? Even if Webb's TD toss to Rice had counted, I would still have lost by a point. I find that reassuring.

 

[Ty_Webb]

Went with the Football Guys rankings and started Jennings (#7) over ADP (#14). Lost by 9 points, ADP outscored Jennings by 12.



Should have listened to TMR.

 

[Lascelle]

Managed to lose my fantasy league with my 14-1 team by a score of 119.72 to 117.72.

This, despite the fact that my entire bench (ADP, Charles, Woodhead) went off.

Had I started any of them over Rashad Jennings I would have won.

Vick came up just a hair short.

I'm now 0-4 in fantasy football title games. Just like my Bills, I choke when everything is on the line.

I remain alive in one final 20-team league where the final matchup goes next week.

 

[CowboysHomer]

Had Manningham starting as my second wideout, pulled him and replaced with Maclin when they announced Sunday the game was postponed.

Maclin in my starting lineup tonight got me 7 points.

Manningham on my bench scored 21.

Started the Eagles D knowing they were getting Joe Webb. They scored 4 points.

Lost the championship by 8.

..........................

Third year in a row in the same league I have finished second.

Two years ago I needed 6 points from Brian Westbrook in the final week and Andy Reid had McNabb throw the ball 50 times, got 4 and lost.

Last year I needed 15 from DeSean Jackson and Driver combined to win it. Got 12.

Already touched on Maclin. Think next year I'm going to put all Eagles on my do not draft list and save myself the heartache

You benched JAMAAL CHARLES in your championship game? Peterson I can sort of understand, but Charles? Really? REALLY? Dude, you deserved to lose.

 

[Ridgelake]

Not having access to a computer to change my lineup after Andre Johnson was announced as out cost me the championship.

 

[Novice2]

ADP is dead to me. By not playing week 15 I lost by 2 points and of corse would have won 300 bucks if The team made it to the championship game

 

[thatguy]

Lost the championship last night by 1 point. Had Vick, ADP, Jared Allen, and Trent Cole going. So many missed opportunities in that game... 1 #######' point!!!!! Ugh, this game sucks sometimes. :endrant: I feel better now.

Me too.Vick threw for an additional 25+ yards (garbage time) on the final drive of the game to get that extra point. So many things didn't go my way like Buehler's missed XP (-3 points...4 point swing actually), Ryan couldn't throw for 2 more measly yards, MINN's secondary couldn't haul in at least one more of those gift-wrapped INTs, etc.I had the bench tiebreaker easily in hand as well.I hate FF. So much for a three-peat and an extra $3,000 of walking around money! Off to teh consolation game for 3rd/4th place.
