Crazy Turn of Events...

Post #1 » by **APerna** » Mon Sep 24, 2007 12:05 am

Javon Walker, my default number one wide receiver, posts just 10 receiving yards for my team this week...

What could make that worse?

The fact that I traded Denver's "number two" receiver Brandon Marshall last week in exchange for DeAngelo Williams. My thought was that I'm corner the Carolina running market (I have Foster as well).

What happens?

Marshall posts 133 yards, looking like Cutler's favorite target and Foster gets a majority of the Carolina carries...scoring and running at will.

I hate fantasy football, but I still love it. Does that make sense?

There's no feeling like seeing your team dominate...but that's a rare occasion.

Tell me about it. Javon Walker really led me down in two of my leagues. Better yet, I did draft Brandon Marshall in three of my leagues but ended up releasing him before the season :banghead:

Eli is my quarterback, so things don't get much better.

Yup. Until you get your 1st loss..
Sucks having too many teams, one guy on my teams does good, I get burnt in another league..12 teams and counting. Just made another Yahoo account..

I rock 12 teams

12? Thats really a lot. If I start sucking in one league I would just leave it alone.

I'm in 2, I'm 1-6 combined... Thanks to Jones Drew sucking and Bulger last week. I had both in both leagues but I traded MJD and Jackson for Peterson in one.

If we are complaining here...

Week 3, my first 4 draft picks combine for 14 points!!! My opponent had McNabb and Westbrook and Ronnie Brown. This is the week right after I faced a guy who had Palmer & Joey Galloway. It seems like now each team I play is having their game of the year with crazy unlikely performances.

However, this is my first year playing and honestly I'm probably not going to play again. When you play fantasy football you stop rooting for teams and start rooting for players. Its harder for me to enjoy the game.

Example, my favorite team is the Eagles (My favorite player is McNabb) and its bittersweet to see them do so well, but to get dominated in my league because of it.

Its kind of ridiculous when you can't enjoy a TD play because the pass went to a WR when you "needed" it to goto the TE or whatever...

But I see what people like about it, it is fun, just not for me.

I'm an Eagles fan too...I try to have at least one Eagle on my team..even if it's Akers or the defense...that helps...
