You’ll have to put up with them anyway. 🙂 ---

Well my team is sure clicking about as well as I could hope for coming into the title game, as my average score over the past 3 weeks is 171.26. I’m definitely licking my chops at some of my matchups (Rice vs Cle, Foster @ Ind), and Beef has some good matchups as well, so I expect it to be the highest scoring title game in history of the league. ---

Green Bay gets the luxury of seeing how SF does on Saturday to decide whether or not to play on SNF. If SF loses, GB locks up the #1 seed and they might rest Rodgers, which would be a pretty shitty way to go for me. ---

I’m playing against Rodgers in three title games but that would be a pretty shitty way for me to win. ---

2nd place in win ratio is pretty good considering I was in last place in year one, and I started out 1-4 this year despite being third scorer. ---

That’s surprisingly close, with 8 of us falling within a 330 point range. ---

We can turn on him like hyenas and pick apart his roster, keeping whatever you can bite off. Edit: I’m their daddy in many leagues, in many years, so there would be a certain comfort and familiarity in having me dominate this one too. ---

You mean, let me understand this cause, ya know maybe it’s me, I’m a little fucked up maybe, but it’ll be funny how? I mean funny like I’m a clown, I amuse you? I make you laugh, I’m here to fuckin’ amuse you? What do you mean funny, funny how? How is it funny? From second in total points to 7th overall record and finishes of 3rd, 5th, and 7th. I’ll also note, I’ve finished 3rd, 1st, and 2nd in overall points against, which puts me at #1 overall cumulative points against. I rock!! I hate this league. ---

Tricky matchups to choose this week. Gotta pick between Demaryius Thomas and Moore, and whether whoever loses that battle deserves the flex spot over Blount. Or if I should be considering Ivory (Ingram is out) or Ball (McGahee banged up) or Bell (Starting) in that spot. Pretty tough actually. I’d probably take Ball or Bell over Blount (the 3 Bs!) except that Blount is up a pretty bad Carolina run D. Stringer has 150 projected points, which is the most I ever recall seeing. It’s not going to have a fizzle on either side for the championship. It’s going to be a 160 to 140 type game. ---

Rice and Foster with big days, but that’s expected. No one else has done much of anything. So far not too bad… ---

I’m just happy I didn’t get Gronked. ---

I had mixed feelings on that one - Gronk was up against me in another championship game (I’m in 3, out of 5 leagues… and a slim margin from being in all 5). Hard to weigh which win would be more important to me. But yeah another 30 point Gronk game would’ve been funny just for the fact that I tried to trade him to everyone a lot and no one would bite. There’s still a chance you can get Grahamed. ---
