Who's winning?

I believe Bass is in first place. MM's team has scored the most.

Yet here I am at a whopping 5-4 and in 5th place.

That's fantasy football. I lead my division in scoring and I am three games back.

I had so many doubts about my team at the beginning of the season. I'm shocked that they are doing so well.

And you're going to be 5-5... I can feel it in my bones :P

Yeesh, I've run into some rotten luck in this league.

Except the most important thing: division strength. You'll still be comfortably in 1st place.

Hey Rob,

















Heh.

That was all me. Look at my bench.

Your 4 player bench almost outscored your main team.

Smith was coming back from an injury, Williams was questionable, and everything I read led me to believe that Blount's role would be reduced against the Seahawks (and it was...he only got 69 yards...oh and THREE TOUCHDOWNS).

I'm about to be 5-6 and still the lead's leading scorer.

Fantasy football is a lot like our election process.

How da hell did I forget Rektkowski in the lineup and still beat Golden by 30 points?

I deserve an honoric spot in the playoffs just for this.

I'm busy thinking 'thank goodness it looks like Rico will miss out'. I don't want to face you in the playoffs!

Gee, you almost sound there like ... a coward.

BWT, you're going down this week.

The playoffs are about to be underway, and not without a few surprises. I didn't see it coming in the scoring numbers, but Golden has fallen from 8-2 to out of the playoffs entirely! Six teams finished 8-5 and he was the unlucky odd man out.

Marmot finishes the season leading the league in scoring, but as the 8th seed and out of the playoffs -- absolutely terribly luck. Maybe the worst I've ever seen.

Bass and BDH camp out on their byes while TH faces Epi and I face Jamie. It should be a fun total crapshoot.

Yeah, that was a terrible 0-3. My D and K decided to abandon any semblance of performance. Cooks went without a single target for an entire game. Even with my bench, I don't think I could have rearranged anyone to win any of them.

Oh well. That's Fantasy Footbal.

Definitely. 90% random.

Thanks for the shoutout.

On another note, I finished 4th place and made the playoffs in another 10-team league despite going 6-7.

So I didn't expect to win last weeks match up. I have a question, is there no trading on yahoo?

There was a trade deadline.

Sawyer left five busted players in his bracket. Five.

On to the main consolation course: Golden.

So epig we meet again.

Did we meet before?

A week after bowing out of the playoffs thanks to a terrible 0-3 end to the season, I get the highest score of the week....

It just wasn't my year. In fact, the best I have ever done in my three attempts at Fantasy Football was one spot out of the playoffs (5th out of 10) and in that year I would have won if I made the playoffs. And I would have made the playoffs if I'd checked my team on game morning on the one week I didn't and realised a player was no longer out...

This year, all I had to do was beat rey, and I couldn't. I'd be top four right now.

But I bet rico busts me again, like he did a few weeks ago lol.

And I thought having both TEs flatlined would be an issue.

Yyiiiikes, that 37-point benchie of yours.

I scored the most points points this week again!

A double consolation since I'm in the consolation bracket.

Very odd. I rearranged my team on Thursday and put him in. I don't know why it didn't stick.

Always fun losing a playoff game by one point at the last bloody second.

ugh jjj I feel for you. Has someone won this thing yet? If not, who's still in the playoffs?

Same thing happened to me one year. Might not have been a playoff game though. Yeesh.

This is the last week and its my beast squad against someone not worth mentioning . Lol

So I don't know why leggy is not worth mentioning (I found out it was her from another source) but I wish you both luck. May the best team win.

Blargh, they're not even counting the wins past the playoffs.

Hopefully some of Marmot's players will tank and I'll be crowned consolation king.

May the best team also win the consolation bracket!

I was just talking smack. Lol. I had a great time playing with everyone this year.

Oh and by the way.... THE CHAMP IS HERE!!!

Why did my team sleepwalk during the first half of this season?
