Football

most tv sucks these days, but there are some shining examples of good writing, acting, camera work, etc... we call those Deadwood and Arrested Development. Family Guy sucks ass, though...

Goddamn liar. Nobody likes watching the Lions. People do because they feel like they have to.
Or if their blood pressure is low and for some goofy ass reason they need to raise it.

Or if they haven't got enough gray hairs on their head and would like more.

Or if they're in a good mood and need to douse that fire.

Dammit, I knew I should've trusted my gut and drafted Stevie Johnson last week. He got more points than my other 3 WRs combined.
Oh well, fixed for this week.
Also swapped Knile Davis for Dion Lewis. He's a better place holder until Arian Foster gets back on the field.

Watkins should do better this week, but that isn't saying much since he didn't get you any points last week. You didn't say who your other WRs are.

My team won and ended up with the 2nd highest point total for the week. So far, so good.

My other two were 49ers Torrey Smith and NE's Edelman who I picked up on waivers after the initial draft. Edelman did okay.
And Jeff Janis. But I don't count him.

I won. But it was one of the lowest point totals.
If I'd been playing against someone else I probably would've lost.

My game this week is a win. The other guy isn't bothering. He's had RG3 as his QB and the suspended Laveon Bell as his RB. Clearly he doesn't give a shit.

I lost this week, but at least I didn't lose anyone to injury. Sunday morning I was thinking about picking up Cutler as my backup QB, but decided to hold off.

If I had started Larry Fitzgerald, I would have won. He actually scored double the points that my three starting WRs had combined.

That moment is upon me.

Of the 14 teams in my work league, only 3 of us are undefeated 3-0 this week. And I'm playing one of those two.

The Pats are on Bye so I'm left without Brady, Edelman, Lewis, and Gostkowski.

That means I have to play Russel Wilson at QB, Jimmy Graham at TE, Hauschka at K, and Lynch at RB(or probably Rawls at RB, since I have him handcuffed and fuck you NFL injury report that waits until a few minutes before game time to let me know whos playing).

So in order to win Fantasy this week I have to root for the Lions to get a major ass beatdown from the 12th man in Seattle on Monday. Oh well, those clowns are already 0-3. One more won't matter.

And speaking of RBs. I have three decent ones in Dion Lewis, Arian Foster, and Lynch. But Lewis has the week off and the other two are 50/50.
Foster hasn't even played this year and Lynch is nursing a hamstring. I have Rawls on standby but won't know until Monday night after all the other teams have played and everyone is Locked.
I tried scooping up Karlos Williams but somebody else got to him.
So basically if Foster doesn't play I'm only playing one RB or two guys are sharing snaps on Monday. Either way it's a downside points wise.
Usually I like playing an RB as my Flex because Backs can get thrown to, but Wides run the ball like never.
I can't even do that this week. Dammit.

In my work league, the two remaining 0-3 teams played each other this weekend. One of them had Rawls and Tate, the other had Calvin Johnson. It was a neck and neck battle. Fumbles are -2 points, so Johnson's fumble decided the game. Final score: 82.16-79.82.

I picked up Josh McCown off of waivers. I'm gonna use him as trade bait and try and get Gronk from a kid.
I'm hoping the 40 Pts he put up last week is alluring.
