Yeah, it happened to me a few weeks ago. I had talked so much shit to my opponent too. ☹

Ah, back up to full strength and a projected score of 143. Gonna take the .2 loss out on Retrovertigo.

Just realized I’ve had Rashad Jennings on my team since 2010 and he is finally getting his first start on my team this week. This is what I love about this league.

I know right? It feels like I’ve nurtured Brandon LaFell’s career since his rookie season and I’m just itching for him to make the jump into the starting lineup. It’s also why I don’t want to give up on Eddie Royal yet as the negotiations to get him lasted weeks.

This is my team.

Ah crap, it’s Thursday again and I forgot again. Hopefully it won’t hurt me too bad this week.

I kind of miss Mike Williams. Wish I still had him instead of Garcon. ☹

Well, this whole Greg Jennings injury thing is working in my favor quite a bit.

And to think people said I was being a homer when I traded Blackmon for him.

I just offered you a trade, by the way.

GB doing nothing and I benched Richardson. Ugh.

Kind of an off week for me, plus the things they were saying about Richardson’s nagging injury sounded like how it was last week so I made a last minute decision to bench him that hurt.

But despite that, it looks like I may take over the scoring lead for the league tonight.

\*\*Justin \*\*and **furt** : goddamn it all, would you guys stop winning, please? The top three teams in the Northeast Division are about to be a combined 16-8.

Meanwhile, **Stringer** ’s ride just keeps getting easier: he’s about to have a 4 game lead after only 8 weeks. Or, put another way, \*\*Hamlet \*\*is about to be 4 games back in his division despite being 3rd in the league in scoring.

Never! If not for a flukey 2010 (I was third in scoring, but only 6-8 overall), I would have won the division every year. Two out of three ain’t bad, but three out of four is better.

Weirdly synchronized scoring this week. Rounding to the nearest whole number, the six winning teams scored: 129, 128, 127, 126, 125, and 114. All six of the winning teams finished in the top 7 in scoring for the week (only \*\*Stringer \*\*got jobbed, and that only just).

Just noticed Yahoo implemented Continuous Waivers, something else we should consider using for next year.

Picking 2/4 for Moore, Nelson, Gordon, James Fucking Jones is difficult.

Fucking kickers. So I need a bye week fill in, and Phil Dawson was actually a good fantasy kicker this year, so I figure what the hell. Two weeks in a row, 1 point per game. So I drop him. Now heh as 3 FGs in the first half. Kickers.
