OK, every year, I seem to have a squad or squads which utterly underperform, and I know for a fact I aint alone. :) SO...herein is where those of you who share my cursed existance in this hobby we call Fantasy Football; can post your woes, your lamentations and your crystal clear illustrations of why breweries sell us beer by the keg:

Team 1: Double headers every week. Here is our commissioners "post draft" pre-week 1 evaluation:

Sarge A+ (healthy) / B+ (Poor Sarges Reality)
------------

LOL Ok absolutely a stud machine team.... but (to be continued)... Manning, enough said, heal up, back to studly. Campbell ok. Westbrook, Jackson, Young.. Are you kidding me? $$$$ Slight hurt on WR because of Smiths suspension, but good crew though... Go back to RBs and see why he not to worried. TE .. .nice pick with V. Davis.. Maybe not a stud, but will give him solid points to add to his solid everything else. A good solid balanced defense... So I said will come back didn't we... Well here is the problem... in 4-5 years... it never fails that half of Sarges team(s) crumble to injury. I just don't get it, because he has some of the best teams year after year, but something happens and injury bug hits hard.


Manning at QB....not bad, but not Manning YTD
Westbrook at RB...hurt...again...whats new
S Jackson at RB...has his O-line shown up for ANY game yet?
S Young at RB...8-9 touches/game? Are you kidding me????
D Bowe at WR...is ANYONE playing QB in KC this year???
V Davis at TE...nuff said

Standings after week 5? 5-5 and projected to go to 5-7 after week 6 games by the website.

Team 2: 1-4

T Brady at QB...wonderful
B Rothlesberger...hurt
D Anderson...does he still have a job in the NFL?
T Scheffler TE...hurt
W Welker..needs a QB
S Rice WR...needs a QB
D Henderson...2 catches/game avg and only nabbing about 1/3 of the passes thrown his way????

Team 3: 4-1

lmao I've been reduced here to K Orton and K Collins as my QBs. :(
B Edwards at WR...hasnt shown himself able to catch a cold, let alone live upto his preseason projections as a top 5 WR for the year.
MInn D...not living upto their preseason hype either. (Of course, as a 40 yr Minn fan, I should have KNOWN they wouldnt/couldnt.)


OK, that my sad tale of woe this season...so far anyway. :)

Whats yours? :D

First 4 picks in a 12 team RIFC type league:
1. Addai
2. Romo
3. Colston
4. Selvin Young

My other RB is Buckhalter who is on bye this week and there isn't a decent option on the waiver wire. I'm in trouble next week.

In 3 leagues this year my draft positions were:
#13 out of 14
#11 out of 12 (non snake)
#12 out of 12

and in the non snake keeper league (which you and I are in together Sarge) 3 of my 5 keepers from last year are injured.

Pick #1 Westie
Pick #2 Colston
Pick #3 McNabb (no receivers and no Westie)
Pick #4 Ricky (now it is the Ronnie Brown show in miami)
Pick #5 S Moss (wash -- where did he go?)
Later rounds:
J Allen ( a bust so far)
J Peppers (another bust)
Rice (not the back up to Mcgahee he was supposed to be)
Royal (ankle)
Back up QB Kitna (got Orton in time though...)

Won first 4 games easily, lost last 8. also easily. OUCH!

GO PHILLIES!!!
