Ben Rothisberger demolished my fantasy season in the semi-finals yesterday. I did well for my first season though, and now I'm hooked.

Ridiculous.
Made playoffs in all 8 of my leauges. Was up against Dallas Clark in all but two of my leagues. Also faced Jerome Harrison in 3 of my leagues and Charles in 3. Rodgers in 2. Just about all my matchups I faced the highest scoring team. I'm in the semis in 7 leagues and I'm going to lose everyone. The league I care about the least I'm going to win my first round matchup as long as Devin Thomas doesn't go nuts. A big game from Lawrency Tynes could help me savor the Soxtalk league. Unlikely he gets 18 points though. |

This past week were our semi-finals. After the 4 o'clock games ended I was winning by 2 points. I still had DeAngelo Williams, he still had Brandon Jacobs. DeAngelo scores 2.6 before getting hurt, making my lead just under 5 points. Jacobs scores 6.3 points. I lose by 1.5 points.
f***ing livid. I had the 2nd seed and the most points scored this year and Thomas Jones only gets my 5 points this week and Williams gets hurt in the first quarter! If Williams played one more series I probably win. Or if Welker caught just one of those 5 or 6 balls just behind him I win. Or if I played any of my bench guys at my flex position I win. Never been this mad about fantasy football before. |

Damn that sucks. I'd be infuriated too. And what a waste of a #1 pick Deangelo was for me too. I was down about 30 going into the Sunday night game with him and Ryan Longwell going and my opponent was done. Was praying for a nice 10 point performance from Longwell (got me 1 stinking point) and a decent game from Deangelo. But of course he blew any chance I had pretty quickly. Can't believe I made it that far with him as my #1 pick. What a bust compared to his 2008 numbers.

Geez...
2 of my semifinal matchups I lost by less than .50 points. Absolutely ridiculous. One league I would've beat any other team and I was the top seed. My other league had 4 divisions and I had the most points but my division record sucked so I was seeded 5th, an go figure I face the highest scoring team of the week besides my own and lose by less than .50. I hate fractional points! luckily the Giants got me 27 in one when I was down 25 in my one league to make the ship (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) Going for le bronze trophies. |

I'm not disappointed though since prior to this season I have sucked at fantasy football. Congrats, Bones! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/notworthy.gif) |

As commish I'm getting rid of head-to-head games next season. It'll be a total points based league. Sick of all the b.s. luck with h2h leagues.
