Thanks Jets D for being super awesome...
Fuck you jets D for being a bit too super awesome and getting Nick Folk one last FG to sink me for the week. (in my cash league)

Not to belabour the point but come on ESPN, why is there no easy layout of just this weeks points/stats for my team without going to the box score? I don't care about my cumulative points score that much.

Eeek, but my team is bad. Really, really bad. It's only Week 3 and I'm beginning to feel like I'm in that late-season NFL Fantasy ad they used to run, that had "Bad Day" playing.

My team here is pretty good but I'm in another league on nfl.com and that team is in tatters already. My drafted RBs were Lamar Miller, Jonathan Stewart, Rashad Jennings and Ryan Matthews who have all been terrible (though Matthews had a good game on Sunday but I'd already dropped him for Matt Jones who did nothing this week lololololol). Over 3 weeks I have scored a total of -1 points from Kickers which is bad. I had Dez Bryant!! At least I've got Antonio Brown, I thought to myself after the Dez injury, but now he's been scunnered with Vick as his QB. I drafted Julius Thomas at TE too!!!

I'm tearing up my IDP league which makes NO SENSE BECAUSE I TOOK JJ WATT IN THE FIRST AS A JOKE WHAT THE HELL. Doing good to middling in all my others EXCEPT my one fun league where I killed the draft (or so I thought) then got utterly destroyed by injuries to the point where I only had six players that could play and two of those were QBs. Also this is my 16 team league team and I am so happy I signed James Jones the second that I thought he was going to Green Bay.

I have lost every week in my cash league despite having a top 4 point total every week... I usually play the guy who has a runaway ridiculous week.

Sigh...I knew it was a risk to leave Andrew Luck in my starting lineup, but decided that he would probably do better than my backup Ryan Tannehill if he was on the field. So of course he didn't play, and the announcement that he was out came after the Dolphins had kicked off in London. My team is cursed.

for the sake of fairness, etc. if anyone has any suggestions or revisions to the robot's lineup let me know. I filled its bye week players with the highest rated available ones and subbed out injured guys (lynch in particular) until there's more news as to whether they are playing.

That seems perfectly reasonable but only because I ended up beating the bot after a stat correction changed an Oakland fumble to Derek Carr. Thanks, stats correction person!

jerm destroyed my team and killed the first born of all my players this week. I was the second highest scorer in the league and still lost by nearly 50 points. A LOT OF POINTS, JERM.

That was the last ride of Arian Foster, though. From here on out, things should get a lot more normal.

I had no idea it was playoffs already. No idea how I squeaked through last week having to play both Washington backs.

I had no idea it was playoffs last week either. My team shit all over itself in the absence of Brandin Cooks and OBJ due to bye weeks but then I was up against Cam's 5TD week and a kicker who scored 22 (TWENTY-TWO!) so I can't complain too much.
HELL DAMN FART.

Thank god my beer league team (which has 16 players) could end up with a bye for the first week of the playoffs, which would virtually guarantee at least one box of $50 worth of local beer from somewhere in the US. Out of all my leagues this is the one I want to win most. I think I got a pretty good shot. (I'm Pick Six Pack)

If we do this again next year I'll not screw up the divisions. Promise!

So we're done? Somehow, I finished the season on a three game winning streak (sorry, Jose Chung). I am kind of confused as to how, in an 8-team league, only six teams made the playoffs, with the top 2 getting a bye. Wouldn't have made much more sense to have all 8 teams make it?

Actually in a typical league it likely would have been only top 4. If we do this again next year can we go back to yahoo or another site? I prefer espn for hockey but man was it bad for football.

Yeah totally. I was only using ESPN for selfish reasons and the commish interface is a total mess, hence the screw ups.

Does Yahoo have a fantasy app? That's how I managed my team.

Woop! Went from 0-6 to making the finals of my cash league! Here's hoping the hot streak continues as I could really use the first place money for an unexpected bill.
