That's it! My first fantasy football league is done.

Not officially til Monday Night, but my poor running back (Mike Wallace-Pittsburgh) would have to do twice as good as expected to keep me going.
I came into the playoffs #8 of 10, facing #1, who is finished, and 22.80 points ahead of me, thank to the Detroit Lions QB, who must've made Lions history today.

The commish, my brother, will go on to win it all. Dammit!

I want my $20 back. And $200 in emotional distress. Screw football. And I can't play poker online? THAT'S ILLEGAL?!??

1. First, Wallace is a wide receiver, not a running back.

And second, you're looking good; I need him to score 80 for me in my league.

But it was free.

2. Wallace can't score 22.8 because I need all the passes to go to Antonio Brown

Damn. The Ravens defense really did a number on me today.

At any rate, I feel your pain

for the first time this year...I sucked.

I had Ben the rapist as my QB--and the Steelers defense. I had DeMarco Murray all season--and the week before he got hot I dropped him cuz he wasn't getting any touches and I needed to start someone that would.

Jermichael Finely turned out to be a bigger get than I originally thought he would. All in all it was fun and a great learning experience. I can't wait to play again next year.

Our buy in this year was only 10 bucks.

unless Antonio Brown can come up with 30 points PLUS what ever his kicker does.

But that's just my money league.

The playoffs started this week in my other league and I am on a bye for the first round.

I always do better in the free league than the money league. Been playing for 8 years now. I need to get the people in my free leagues to pay. : /

5. Believe it or not, Jon Kitna holds the record for most yards passing in a game for the Lions.

446 yards passing in a game against the Eagles the year before "That year". Stafford does hold the record for most TDs in a game, with 5. But he did that in 2009...the first time.

War Pigs 155, Older&MoreInTheWay 72 (with Mike Wallace still to go).

Looks like I'll be playing Rejected in the finals.

That is unless David Akers scores 20. Then I'll be playing the NJ Giants.

I've lost in the finals the last two years. It'd be nice to win one.

GO WAR PIGS!!!
