Before tonight’s game and regardless of Blounts showing in it, I will note that Beef would’ve have crushed me if he had Steve Smith and I had Jermichael Finley. Those fucking 49 points by Rodgers, though. Ouch. ---

Turns out I beat you AND I get Jermichael Finley for the next 10 years. ---

> [@SenorBeef](#): > > Turns out I beat you AND I get Jermichael Finley for the next 10 years. One thing this league has given me is the serenity to accept scoring a shitload of points and losing. If Rodgers gets you 50 every week, I think you’ll have a very good team. ---

If only Winslow would held on to that pass in the endzone. ---

Sorry for lack of response to trade offers. I’m on the road and (slowly) negotiating a deal but it may fall through. ---

Hey Beef, I’m gonna cancel the official trade offer but it’s still on the table if you are interested. ---

Alright, yeah, sorry, got home last night and I’ve been busy with tons of stuff. And Varlos and I were making progress when he dropped off the face of the earth. So I just noticed I have the most points scored in this league (unexpected), but also lead the league in points scored against, so I just barely avoided making a 1-3 start by a few points. ---

I’ve been trying to move one of my top 3 TEs so much that I kinda forgot about Tony Gonzalez. He’s still a top 5 TE, but since he’s only got another 2-3 years left, I’d be willing to take considerably less in return for him. Looking for WRs in particular, third tier guys or young guys with potential. ---

I had a 130 to 85 projected score over the Redbirds, and so far it’s about the opposite. I always get worried when yahoo thinks I’m a massive favorite. I need a huge day out of the Green Bay offense to catch up, although that’s the offense you want in that situation, so I’ve got a chance. ---

I need to make up a 72 point gap with Rodgers, Nelson, Finley, and Gould against Redbird’s Hester. Hamlet needs 29 points out of Grant to beat Stringer. Hamlet has Pettigrew, Titus Young, and a 4 point lead against Retrovertigo’s Jennings and Packers D. Omni has Julio Jones, Hanson, and a 7 point lead against RNATB’s Michael Turner and Crosby. ---

Mason Crosby went nuts, so now he has Jason Hanson and a 16 point deficit. Possible, but not likely. 4-1! ---

Rough start for me - I’m leading the league in scoring, but I’m 2-3, and I was a few points from starting 1-4. ---

Just when I settle in on Jordy Nelson being a pretty good starter, the Rodgers switches back to James Fucking Jones. ---

Uh, false alarm? I’m seriously considering starting the entire Green Bay offense. Now I just need to trade for Greg Jennings. I may actually start Rodgers/Nelson/Jones/Starks/Finley next week. ---

In the latest “fuck you” to fantasy football players, Shanahan announces Tim Hightower is his starter, and proceeds to not put him on the field at all. Why o why did I believe any word out of that stupid fucks’ mouth. At least the Redskins got their asses handed to them. ---

I need 35 points out of Bess, Gould, and the Vikings D to beat Stringer. Unlikely, but maybe Cutler has an epic meltdown for the Vikes. Ellis Dee needs 39 points out of Burress, Holmes, Keller, and the Jets D to beat RNATB and break his 5 game losing streak. Furt needs 24 points out of the Bears D to beat Petey. ---

> [@SenorBeef](#): > > Uh, false alarm? I’m seriously considering starting the entire Green Bay offense. Who would you give up for Donald Driver? ;)\* Also, I’m 5-1! Holy everloving shit! How did that happen? - Winky face, but also a serious offer. ---

Barring the Jets’ pass offense going nuts tonight, I will be too, even though the other two good teams in the division have outscored me by about 100 (and I’ve outscored the second worst team by just 20). It’s nice having the lowest points against total for once. ---

I am cheering for Brandon Marshall to outscore Shonn Greene tonight so Hamlet wins and I take back my division! Can’t believe Beef is 2-4 with #1 points for because of #1 points against, wow. ---

I’m not sure if that’s meant to mock me or not. Seems like a legit gripe. I almost wish I lost that close 3 pointer the other week, just so I can be top scorer with a 1-5 record. If you’re going to get fucked, you might as well get fucked full blast.
