My squad is getting smacked around by Carnival of Sproles - DeAndre, Witten, Big Ben, Miami DST, just a rout. Oh well, on to next week against the Fighting Newfies!

If I pull out a win this week I'll have to thank the fantasy football gods.
My best player (Mariota, 24+pts) was on the bench and scored double my next top player (12pts).
Thanks gawd I sniped the Carolina-D (21pts) with my last pick in the draft.
It'll only be Week #2 and I'll be debating starting Mr. Perfect (Mariota @ CLE) instead of Tannehill (@ JAX).
Oh man, defeat snatched from the jaws of victory! I was up 97.54 to 97.36 and then the Bradford INT with Philly's last possession of the game. Final score: The Frisky Hobbit 96.54, Bettman Fumbles 97.36. Ugh!

Carlos and Julio baby!
Hyde, even last year, had some runs that showed he was one day going to be a dominant bellcow RB. He was just sick last night, especially on that first 10-yard TD run. https://youtu.be/FbXkLCdxfP4

Yahoo trying to be funny in the recap:
Facing a 39.80-point deficit on Monday night, Tears of Joique scored 61.00 and defeated Carnival of Sproles 113.04 to 105.04. They also claimed the second-highest score of the week. Even Pat Benatar would have been proud of how these two teams hit each other with their best shots.
Pat Benatar reference! Bwa-ha-ha! Oh Yahoo! (knee-slap)
If only Yahoo spent 10% of their fantasy football effort on their fantasy hockey package!
Two bad beats this week, horrorfan AND the Comish.
Ouch. Bad luck is rollin' through to this year.
Hopefully the fantasy football gods are kinder next week.
Thanks Peng! That was a tough pill to swallow watching that final play last night...but hey at least Dez Bryant is "only" gone for 4-8 weeks! Plus, in my only other football league, I got beat by the damn Kicker from Atlanta, who had 3 x FG of 40+yds (7 pts ea), a regular FG and 2 PAT for 26 points! I'm sure it will even out...cause that's how the universe works, right!? Right?
How does the Colts score 14 points, and Vinateri not get any points. Jackson getting injured after one look didn't help either. I wouldn't have won anyways, but points are needed for tiebreakers.

Just another 12 weeks or so of disappointment left folks!
I seem to recall losing one by 0.02 pts during the first year of this league...

Yeesh - looks like I have the hard start this week.
Axeman's TD's N Beer with 21+pts from Manning and 21pts from the Bronco-D. (Effin Chiefs sure turned it over last night, wtf.)
Demaryius... nice game bud... but catch a TD will ya!
Brutal. F'n. Week.
Every one of my fantasy teams this week pooched the bed for me, including this one.
With Alshon Jeffry being out again this week, I started Reuben Randle and he got me diddly squat. With Ellington being out, I considered starting David Johnson but every where I read, it said Chris Johnson would start and David Johnson would be off the bench. Sure enough, David Johnson went off (16.5 points, on my bench none the less). Instead I started Rashad Jennings (another Giant) and he got me next to squat.
Not to mention, I lost in my damn Survivor pool this weekend when New Orleans managed to lose at home again to the damn Bucs.
Just a $hitshow of a weekend for my fantasy.
FWIW - I didnt even bother to mention my other two leagues, which are both keepers. One saw me lose Lacy and the other saw me lose Romo (both teams also lost btw). Brutal!!!
