I don’t usually remember the players of the opponent I’m facing, so I had no idea at the time that I was facing Charles. I actually remarked to my brother, after his 5th touchdown was announced, that I’d hate to face Charles today. My anticipatory grin dropped quickly as I checked out the head-to-head after all the games ended.

Yeah, 68 points from one player: pretty much the margin of victory.

And so it ends with a whimper, of me in second place.

Sort of depends on your perspective. Ended with a bang for me. 😛

Honestly, you had me worried there for a bit, but then Manning and McCoy played the kind of games that have been carrying me all season long.

Well, guess I really nailed down that 10th place slot. Held it most of the season! (ugh.)

I put all my marbles on Big Ben and Eli. Guess we all know how well that panned out.

Oh, well - there’s always next season.
