fantasy football: a league of our own
Ugh, had a horrible season, damn you Arian Foster
;D
;D
I traded for David Wilson and had RGIII as my QB all year and still finished in first place. Praise be to Jimmy Graham, fantasy god. Should be a good playoffs, kind of happy that Carls didn't sneak in since his Josh Gordon/Alshon Jeffrey duo is probably the scariest in the league right now.
i need to crowd source two fantasy decisions, playoffs in a different league.
alfred morris or shane vereen?
torrey smith or victor cruz?
the biggest reason i ask… well, the washington football team has basically mailed it in, and cruz has done jack shit for the past 10 weeks. help me out!

looks like the finals will be a rematch of the 2010 show-down between my Barebacks and the TBars. i won last time but i won't be this time 'round if jamaal has another day like today. i was feeling really down on my prospects for a while there, by half-time of the 1:00 games i had resigned myself to fighting for 3rd next week. at one point Yada was a 70-30 favorite but things turned around for me by the fourth quarter.
i'm thinking that right about now, stevewizzle is hating eli. just a hunch.

Nice showing this week, 178 points. Hopefully left some in reserve for the finals. This is a long-in-the-making rubber match – I beat Sweetcell in the 2009 finals, Sweetcell returned the favor next year. (That was the famous "Joe Webb Game," remember?) Should be a good one.

oh jeebus, i had suppressed 2009. thanks for bringing that memory back.
i remember the Joe Webb Affair. i'm still taking medication for that.
i wanna be all rah-rah-bring-it-on, but i'm skurred. i doubt that jamaal will have another ridiculous outing like he had this weekend but i wouldn't bet on myself.

you're talking about this other league of yours, right?
One of my leagues has an 8 team playoff, and our championship is in week 17. Kind of aggravating. But, I was in 6th place… I'm the defending champion and because of Calvin Johnson having a less than stellar night, I have advanced! Defending my championship for at least another week!
In my family league I've made it into the championship. As long as I had beaten my other cousin, I'm fine. 2nf place wins $75 so I've already tripled my investment! I LOVE FANTASY FOOTBALL!

League930 Final Standings for 2013
you can only keep BookerT away from the podium for so long… after not making the playoffs last year, he came roaring back to win it all ("all" being bragging rights and $150). as manager of the Barebacks, i would like to apologize to the league for failing to beat him in the finals. i'll do better next year. i hope. for a second year in a row, third place (and $25) goes to Yada's Something Witty. He nudged out team salty.
RghGirlsDelicateBoys just barely beat Pigskin&Pigtails6949 for 5th place, while scumbag steve took 7th place from We Are Both Carls.
and in the "does anyone really care?" bracket, Hoya Paranoia took 9th place from Crump's Brother, and Godieinhell2 bested Cassius Claymore for 11th.
i'm already looking forward to the 2014 season. i will once again invite y'all to my place in the 'burbs for a draft party with a freshly-brewed IIPA, and chances are good it won't work out again ;D
enjoy the real playoffs,
