Can?t be mad at Josh though bc he single handily got me to the playoffs.

Yep, Josh is a stud, that's fantasy for ya. The league where I lost in the final...I lost by 6 points, and the Colts defense got me -4...I would've won if I had started either the Raiders or Vikings defenses on my bench

Losing close is the worst. If I don’t lose by double digits, I’m pissed bc it’s usually bc I chose the wrong player.

Came in second this year. I also agree I want to lose by enough that no matter who was on my bench would have made no difference. I hate losing by a couple points.

The last round I got Joe Burrowed, after Josh Allening my way into the playoffs. I will have to say Brian Thomas Jr was the surprise of the season for me. I drafted him 120th. I had first pick and chose CMC. We all know how that worked out.

Had BTJ in a couple leagues...thankfully he was still great with Mac Jones throwing to him. My worst pic was taking Breece Hall instead of Bijan in the league I finished 2nd

Zen, any fantasy leagues for you? I'm guessing your sports temper might not allow for it

No way. I'm a drunken sailor just due to supporting my team. If money (or additional bragging rights) was on the line, I'd have blown a gasket years ago.

Also why I don't own a gun.

Let's hope the Steelers end their losing streak today

I'm not counting on it.

There comes a point in each season when I reach enlightenment. Contender or pretender.

They had me fooled most of the year. But they're a clear pretender.

They're soft. Can't convert 3rd, 4th and inches routinely. Both lines are atrocious. Russ has turned into a pumpkin. D can't get off the field on third down. Only sometimes saved by skill players (Watt, Heyward, Bishop) frequently bailing them out with turnovers. You can't survive on turnovers forever.

And for the love of god, OC Smith's playbook is Forrest Gump simple. So sick of Russ pitching it to the back, 10 yards behind the line.

They take off the training wheels, and we finally move the ball...

Doy. Smith is soooo scared to start games.
