Ellis Dee has a 37 point lead and Pierre Thomas against my Painter, Henderson, Sproles, and Cundiff. Whoever wins this game is going to have a low score.

Dale needs 30 points out of Boldin, Torrey Smith, and Vinatieri to beat Crowley’s Bentleys.

Court Jesters needs 53 out of Brees, Meachem, Garcon, and Jones Drew to beat Rocket Science.

Dragon Ash needs 29 out of Flacco to beat Jules, who may win this week with 60 points.

Now I need about 16 out of MJD less whatever Garcon does for the rest of the game (assuming they don’t let Brees throw for the rest of the game).

Less than one point _combined_ from Torain, Graham, and Young. Just brutal.

Wrong night to get the drops. Needed a good game, not one where he drops a ball at the 1 yard line. Too bad, as it looked like the Ravens could be run against last night.

I’ve got at 1.16 lead over NY Fanboys becaue I’ve only gotten 1.16 points out of Tony Romo so far!

Failure to field a kicker might cost me the week. Rookie mistake.

Not feeling good about my matchup with Jules. My only good receiver (Steve Smith) is on a bye, and Stevie Johnson is getting the Revis treatment.

I’m also going to go ahead and bench Chris Johnson, which means this will be the week where he suddenly wakes up.

There’s just nothing good going on for my team, even Tom Brady has done nothing the last few games.

Yeah, none of that went well. My leading scorer is my kicker. My defense put up negative points. If Tom Brady has a good game, I might score 85 points - which is a loss most of the time.

And I’ll need some serious luck to match that this week. Ugh.

I have a 36 point lead on Jules with Vick, Avant, and Celek left to play for him.

Court Jesters has a 1 point lead and Antonio Brown against Omni’s Forte and Gould.

I have gloriously overcome the lowest score in the league this week.

What a pathetic game so far between Duke’s Devils and I. It looks like he’s going to put up about 65-70 points, and I’m not sure I can beat it. Stevie Johnson and Steve Smith combined for 4 points. Darren Sproles, who was rated as a top 10-12 RB by most experts for this week, had 3 yards. My day was actually only saved by… Chris Johnson. And maybe Tom Brady. We shall see.

30 points by the Bears D/ST? Ugh. I’m going to need huge games from AP and Dustin Keller to have a chance this week.

It’s down almost exactly to Tom Brady vs Rob Gronkowski between Duke’s and I. The last TD hurt. Brady needs to throw another 19 balls to Welker.

Mother %#)(\*%#OIU#. Jordy Nelson couldn’t get one more yard?

Losing by a point sucks.

Losing by 0.08 points BLOWS MONKEY BALLS.
