170+ points with a 31 pointer on my bench. Damn. Starting the season with a bang. ---

I didn’t think I actually _would_ though. ---

Two weeks into the season and both of my starting tight end options are out. Evan Engram apparently pulled a hammy in warmups. ---

This JK Dobbins comeback is looking legit. Dude got his leg rebuilt like 9 times in 3 years. He was 10 for 135 and a TD last week and he’s 118/1 so far this week in the third quarter. Which is cool now but kinda pisses me off since it means he’s really good and I got robbed of having him every year. ---

He’ll be a lovely keeper for me in HHM though (assuming he doesn’t get hurt again). ---

Damn, I was 2 points short of being the top scorer in the first 2 weeks. Kyle Pitts, you remain a great disappointment. Midwest division is off to an awful start. Divisional scores: Sunbelt, 320, 276, 220, 203. Northeast: 273, 245, 228, 215. Midwest: 179, 177, 165, 124. Bottom 4 all in the one division. It has just been two weeks though. I think my kicker Brandon Aubrey is going to end up being a legit important fantasy asset. He was a 28 year old rookie last year (played soccer before the NFL) and lead the NFL in fantasy points scored. And he’s in the lead this year too, at 21 and 17 points so far. ---

Alright, so I’m going to build a dynasty off my kicker. Hit a 65 yarder with ease today. And it’s obnoxious that Yahoo lumps all 50+ yard kicks into the same scoring category, there should really be a 60+ category. After two huge games to start the season I had a dud. I got lucky enough that I may be playing against one of the only teams I can possibly beat. I need about 30 points out of Josh Allen and Brian Thomas. I made a last minute decision to sit David Montgomery or Rhamondre Stevenson and they ended up scoring 0.3 and 19.7 points respectively. Ouch. If I lose, that will be why. Justin is going to beat Jules which is a pretty decent sized upset. Our champion Hamlet is going to start the season 1-2. Ellis and Spiritus are at exactly 50/50 going into the MNF games. ---

Thank you beautiful Josh Allen I never doubted you. Starting 3-0 in both my fantasy leagues. It’s going to be a huge disappointment when I flame out later. ---

You could still theoretically lose in HHM. ---

Well that was quite lucky, I ended up playing the only team I could beat this week. ---

Rough loss to @Spiritus_Mundi by 1.35 points, but I was only the 8th highest scoring team so fair enough. That has the Northeast Corridor in a three-way 2-1 logjam with Justin only one back at 1-2 and with the second most points. Speaking of points, top two PF in the league (Peteys, then Beef) are in the Sunbelt but then the next four are all four Northeast teams. ---

I am stunned that I am seriously considering starting Sam Darnold over Patrick Mahomes. Darnold has ourscored Mahomes two out of three weeks. Weird start to the fantasy football year. ---

Awww yis 4-0 and Petey lost to Jules which gives me a 2 game edge on the division. Jules and I are close battling for top score overall and it’ll come down to the Monday night games. Champ starts 1-3. Rough. ---

It’s pretty incredible that I am going to be 3-1 with 4 (now 5) starters hurt, including 2 of the top 10 overall players in fantasy and the overall #1 player. I’ve already taken two 0s due to injuries being reported late that I could not replace. That number doesn’t count Tyreek Hill, who is healthy, but his QB is injured which tanks his output so much that it is only slightly better than him being hurt himself. It also doesn’t count Devonta Smith, who is a rotational starter and a direct replacement for A.J. Brown, who is also hurt. 6 players I would regularly start, hurt. It’s not an unheard of scenario to squeak by a lucky win here and there while being devastated by injury, but to still be in the running for the most posts scored during that time? That is insane. And with a little luck I could have the highest this week and take over the overall scoring lead ---

Another close loss for the Fanboys. After losing last week by 1.6 points I now lost this week by 5.55. Ouch. But last week I was only the 8th highest scorer, and this week 5th, so the losses seem reasonable. I am now the league’s 6th highest scorer overall and am 2-2. Perfect mediocrity. My team needs to pick it up. Lotta injuries and slow starts. ---

I accidentally cut Jahan Dotson instead of Greg Dortch to make some room on my roster. Dotson is probably worthless anyway it was a misclick that I was going through too fast to notice, does anyone object if I reverse it and drop Dortch instead? ---

I dont object. Well, I object to the disappearance of Patrick Mahomes, Brandon Aiyuk, Chris Olave, Keenan Allen, and anybody willi g to trade for a running back. But I dont object to you picking up Doctson.
