So....I benched Eric Decker in favor of Boykin and R. Randle (playing a hunch, fail).

Boykin = 0 Randle = like 3 pts or something

Decker = 46 points

I'm losing by 40 with Jimmy Graham going tonight.


A win would have put me as the 2nd seed in the playoffs with a 1st round bye, guaranteed to be in the top 4 (top 4 pay out).

Instead, I'm going to be the 5th seed with a tough matchup next week to get into the top 4...

Eddie Lacy and Boykin secured me a loss this week. 3 points between the two of them.

Danny Woodhead
Demaryius Thomas(even though he went for over 100, only had 3 catches in PPR)
Brandon Marshall
Harry Douglas

I'm chasing 75 and have Jimmy Graham, SEA DST, SEA K.

I had 2 touchdowns from my entire team(Kaep throwing one and Alfred running 1) TERRIBLE.

Unfortunately, my team blows every other week, and I basically have to win out to have a shot at playoffs. Oh yeah, I play the league leader next week who is 11-1. EEEEFFFFFFFF

So I got lucky and actually beat the #1 team in the league. Thank you Josh Gordon, Ben Tate, and LeVeon Bell. Now I am going to get shellacked in the first round of the playoffs.

I was lucky enough to go up against Alshon Jeffery in one pay league, and Eric Decker in the other....fuck.

Our league allows subs.

What that means is that we set out lineup and list in an email or on the league message board a set of "subs". Basically it allows us to start guys on the injury reports (questionable, etc) without fear of getting a zero if they are a late scratch in the game.

If they don't play at all, our "sub" we listed for that position goes in. If they play even 1 play, then tough luck.

Everyone in the league loves this rule and it never will go away.

Now, with that said, I lost out on a first round bye in the playoffs because of a sub situation.

The top 2 teams in my division are my team and another team that went into the week with the same record and I had 3 less total season points (tie breaker for division win/first round bye).

I scored quite well this week (Charles, Murray, Fitzgerald, Megatron, Gonzalez, KC D, etc), and was WELL ahead of him in points (we both won). However, since Percy Harvin, who he listed as his starting WR, did not play on MNF, his first sub went in...Eric Decker...

So because of Harvin not playing even a single play, I have a playoff game this week against the highest scoring team in the league (I am the 3 seed, he is the 6th...he is the tough luck team, highest scoring team but barely made playoffs due to record) instead of a bye.

FU Sub rule and Decker!

Although, to be fair, if we didn't have the sub rule he probably doesn't take the chance on Harvin and starts Decker instead anyway.

I'd say it's pretty fucking dumb of him to start Harvin regardless. But that sucks for you man.

Reggie Bush. Fuck that.

Yeah, that sucks man. One guy in my league has him and ADP as his RB's today, and just had Gronk go down. Looks like he'll probably be eliminated.

I'm going to put up 200+ points today in standard scoring (.5 for catch)

But I'm on a 1st round playoff BYE

Wish they'd do this next week.

Have ADP on one team. Luckily the playoffs start next week. But, I also lose Gronk from the same team.

Stafford...good thing for the bye week.

I am going to lose to a guy that didn't start his two WR positions this week. I'm sitting on 41 points with only Gould to play. Outside of Foles (19) and Gore (11), no one on my team put up more than 3 points (Gronk, M Floyd, Garcon, K Wright, ADP, Pats D). As of right now he has me beat with just Dalton (30) and Lacy (14). But again, luckily the playoffs don't start until next week.

Faced Jamaal Charles... nuff said.

Fuck Stafford, miserable ****. Luckily he didn't cost me the win, first championship in my league. Woooo!

I lost the championship game last night by like 70 points. I didn't stand a chance. He even made the smart move and sat Brees in favor of Andy Dalton, who scored 39 by himself.

Nothing I could do about it. Even my bench sucked.
