Hey **Senorbeef** , is there anything to the rumors that this weeks ESPN projections will have Jerome Harrison’s tumor rushing for 150yds and 2 TD’s? 😉 ---

My game with **SenorBeef** is going to be an interesting one this week. Aside from how my team magically forgets to show up every time I play him and his always gets a breakout performance or two against mine, of course. I’ll be down two of my three best players this week due to bye (Brady, the second best player in fantasy, and Welker the best overall non-QB in fantasy), and another two of my starting four RBs out with injury from last week’s games (of course). He has a few more players out with byes than me, but not a one is very important to his team overall. He definitely caught me the right week (of course). ---

We do play 5 times this year, so I’m looking forward to all 5 excuses as to why the situations totally favor me and disfavor you because the universe hates you. ---

Five times is a lot. I’ll really have to get creative to come up with good excuses for those last meetings. ---

I don’t really anticipate winning all 5 matches - you’ve got a good team, I don’t have any truly great teams this year, and 5 games in a row is a lot to win. Edit: For clarity, 4 in the super league, 1 in the auction league. Although I have won like my last 67 or so against you, so I guess it’s not that wildly improbable. ---

What the fuck? I started Ryan Mathews, not Daniel Thomas. But Thomas is on my roster. ---

I’m stuck btw. Not gonna try to fix it now of course. But wtf. I double and triple check my rosters. ---

Not looking good for me. All of my receivers are doing nothing. ---

> [@SenorBeef](#): > > What the fuck? I started Ryan Mathews, not Daniel Thomas. But Thomas is on my roster. Same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago- I started Kevin Boss, but for some reason Yahoo left Ed Dickson in- on a bye. There wasn’t really much point in making a fuss, because Dickson was just productive on his bye as Boss was in the actual game (ie., 0 points). ---

Well fuck me, McFadden is hurt. If I lose both of my top 2 picks… That also probably seals my loss this week. ---

Damn, if I had gotten the expected 20 points out of McFadden, I’d be right in this game. As it is, I’ve got a 22 point lead against Rice, Ingram, Moore, and Boldin, no way that holds up. Balls. ---

I’m in a really good spot going into Monday down just 7 with Ray Rice and Anquan Boldin left, but I’m not confident at all. Lost too many in a row to feel good about this. ---

Pretty funny that NO scores 62 fucking points and neither of my NO players had a single touchdown. Just noticed that. ---

It would be an extremely unusual situation for Rice and Boldin not to score 8 points. Less than 1% chance of that happening. You won, congrats. I gotta stop playing you, you’re taking out my draft picks every time. Next up is Larry Fitzgerald, I think. ---

Ray Rice hadn’t fumbled in 500 attempts, and now 2. Actually, this will probably be overturned, but clearly the universe wants me to win. (There’s still no real chance I’m in this) [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmb-super-league-fantasy-football-2011/592910.md?page=10) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/sdmb-super-league-fantasy-football-2011/592910.md?page=12)
