Yep, thanks.

This is the first losing team I’ll be fielding out of my last 20 or 25 SDMB teams I’ve fielded, I think.

On the plus side, I get to crush you in the other 9 leagues we play together.

So I was curious about that last statement so I looked it up. My finishes in SDMB leagues.

2011:  
Big League 1/20  
Super League 3/6  
All-pro 5/12  
Dynasty 1/12  
Auction 1/12

2010:  
Dynasty 3/12  
Big League 1/20  
Auction 3/10  
All pro 2/12

2009:  
Dynasty 12/12  
Big league 15/20  
All pro 5/12  
Auction 1/12

2008:  
Auction 4/12  
All pro 3/12

2007:  
All pro 3/12  
Auction 4/8

2006:  
SDMB Fantasy Pigskin, precursor to all pro league 1/12

So out of 18 league-years, 2 seasons where I was in the bottom half, one of which I was the top scorer out of 20 people but got absurdly screwed on the head to head matchups. Even the dynasty team ended up being destined for greatness.

So this will be my first worthless team in all my SDMB FF history.

Correction: The highest **two** single-week scores. I’d be interested to know how often a team has topped 299.89 (with a player remaining) in two consecutive weeks in this league’s history. And I’m still just 2-4 and a far sight from the playoffs.

Aaron Rodgers and Jordy Nelson combined for 79.07 points. Imagine for a moment that you are leading by 75 going into Monday night and you end up losing by 4. Unfathomable.

On the other side, I can imagine this one stung a bit more than normal, all things considered.

Well, nobody has since 2008. **Hamlet** was closest with 280 in Weeks 1 and 2 last year.

I lost by less than 3 points this week. That’s a 3 point swing that could’ve translated into 2 wins that I desperately needed. Ugh.

Jesus. That should _not_ have been that close. Can’t complain when I post my lowest score of the season and still win, though.

Somehow my crappy team is a respectable 4-2. Purely through luck.

Wow, your team _is_ crappy. You’re fourth from the bottom in scoring.

My “every other team every week” figure went from 48-17 last week to 53-25 this week, though.

Pending trade: **furt** ’s Fightin’ Quakers get Jermaine Gresham and the Arizona D. My Nine Inch Neils get Kyle Rudolph and the Cincy D.

I was probably going to have to drop Gresham anyway since he’d been supplanted in my lineup by Owen Daniels and has the same bye week; he’s got serious keeper potential, though - drafted in round 10. I don’t need Arizona now that Seattle has proven to be an elite commodity and has a better upcoming schedule.

Rudolph is scoring touchdowns but not posting significant yards.

You are not getting the Cincinnati defense as part of that deal.

Already won this week. Bit worried about next week, when I play\*\* furt\*\*, Peyton gets New Orleans, and will probably throw for 22 touchdowns.

Anyone know what the record winning streak in this league is? Going back to last season, I am on a 13-0, including playoffs.

Just sayin’.
