I feel bad for all the Bryce Brown owners.

Shame on Brad Evans for misleading everyone in such a critical time.

I lost in 1league because of Janikowski and Romo of all players...

[PuRock]

In my money league I lost.

Worst call. Starting Josh Feeman (1 point) over the two guys I had on my bench Kaepernick (32 points) and R Wilson (41 points).

Ouch. How much you lose? Don't feel bad though, I lost a hunnet. That philosophy of starting a defense vs the same crappy opponent more then once doesn't work.

I traded a 6th for the Seahawks D just for this week like 5 weeks ago. Well with Browner being out & Seattle being on the road I preferred to go with Detroit @ Arizona.

If I would of played them I would've of won by 5 points and wouldve had highest score.

Also didn't have RG3 & Gronk play which just sucks.

Oh & Martin only had 3 points!!! I was worried about the saints getting a huge lead against them the last time they played and I started him but it didn't even cross my mind this time.

Damn I left Brandon Lloyd on my bench in favor of Danario Alexander ( 0 points ). Now I need Kenny Britt to score 29 points lol

Yeah I got lucky for sure. Although it's not like this is the first time match-ups have been won or lost because of garbage time.

Almost as lucky as Frank Gore picking up a fumble and running it into the endzone.

xD or someone accepting a trade that gives you a feature back, a receiver on record breaking pace, and an upgrade at qb and TE (at the time). Freaky stuff happens cant do anything about it.

Ughhh.... Going to the fantasy SB, but playing the team with AP, and Brady........
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu


Then again, they are probably saying the same about Rodgers Welker Grahm and Murray.

[Medications]

Between Freeman and Doug Martin and Connor Barth I got screwed in a couple different leagues this week. The Vikings kicker putting up 25 points for my opponent also didn't help.

I'm not gonna kick myself, history and stats suggested that playing against the Saints, Martin and Freeman were locks to have good to great games, no one could have predicted that abysmal pathetic excuse for football they decided to do instead. Was I gonna bench Martin against the Saints and start Murray against Pittsburgh or Green-Ellis against Philly on a Thursday night? No, it's a shame because my team was solid and I had the most overall points scored on the season by over 100, what a waste that it's all for nothing over one bad game by Tampa Bay

The difference is I gave up Brandon Marshall and CJ Spiller. You gave up Brandon Lloyd...

you also got bjge jermaine gresham and tony romo in return

[flaccopoe]

Abysmal performance by Martin, Barth, Jackson and Williams aside, I'm pretty glad I made it to the Finals in 1 of my 2 leagues. It's been a lot of stress, but also a lot of fun!

Thats true but the disparity in your trade far outweighs what I got back. Whats ironic is if you still had Lloyd, his one monster game would have propelled you into the finals.

The what if game is pointless because if you hadnt had Calvin and played spiller instead of the lawfirm I woulda been in finals so either way

And its not like I convinced the dude at all. I didnt even say anything to him. I sent out a random offer to see if he was even active and he hit accept. I didnt think he would. I mean I'm good, but I'm not that good.

Anyway, it doesnt matter now I lost. So good luck in the finals.

Actually if I had Marshall and Spiller I still would have a comfortable lead over you, but you are right it doesnt matter at this point.

Danario Alexander
Reggie Wayne
Josh Freeman

Everyone on my team forgot how to play football yesterday. Ended the regular season at 11-2, and of course I bombed in my first playoff game.

Looks like I spoke too soon about my money league. I pulled off a miraculous comeback. Crabtree posted 29 and CJ 18 while my opponent's Britt scored 1 point. Won by 2 points! Won in spite of Freeman/Alexander/Lions.

2 out of 2 playoff teams in the Championship.

I get another chance to think real hard about Freeman/Kaepernick/Russell.

Go with Wilson. The Seahawks are on FIRE! They're the only merger-era team to ever score 50+ in 2 consecutive games. Wilson scored 39.4 pt lost week with 3 rushing TDs and a passing TD! Kaepernich should struggle against the 12th man and SEA's fierce defense.

Wilson saved me last week as a last minute RG3 replacement and got me into the championship, but I'm reluctant to start him this week against SF. Last time he played SF he only had 122 yards, 0 TD's, 1 INT and 10 yards rushing.

I can start 2 QB's if I want and I also have Romo and RG3, so I'm leaning towards Romo against the Saints, and then keep Moreno at flex with Foster and Richardson both also starting. Or start Romo and RG3 but I don't think RG3 will be 100% yet

But the Seahawks faced the Bills (in a neutral site) and the Cardinals at home. 49ers are a different ballgame.

Kinda hoping that Sherman gets suspended (which he won't). Because in both my championship games I have Crabtree who's been red hot for me in the playoffs.

Certainly don't go with Freeman!

[RavensPunkXVX]

Went 12-2 in my very first fantasy league. Lost in the first round.

[flaccopoe]

I guess I'll be happy with a gold and a bronze. It's cool that I won the Scoring Champion and Regular Season Award, too.
