Momentous Wednesday! I won a game in my $$$ league. Yeah, it is only one. CMac returned to score less points than who I benched to play him. Honestly, I think it was just my time to get a W. Now the real work begins… Not really. I’m totally cooked in that league. A 1-9 start with four or five weeks left to the playoffs leaves me no chance to come back. I feel like the Jets right now. Still, I’ll try to make a run of it and spoil everyone else’s season. I beat a 6 win team last week and I expect to do the same this week. Out of 12 teams, exactly half are above .500. Hold my beer…
The $$ league is not my only Yahoo-based league. When I won two years ago I realized all the champions are moved up to a free entry prize league where you can compete for serious cash. To that end I have joined a H2H league with hopes of getting into the show. I am second in that league at 6-3 with a decent shot of getting to the ‘ship.
Meanwhile in the family league I’ve changed my name from Comeback Season to Dogpoo season. This is a more appropriate name for someone with a 2-8 record. I’ve lost 7 of the last 8 in an absolute free fall. This has to stop. Hopefully a move to Brock Purdy at QB helps me the way it has the Niners. The big decision is whether or not to start Goedert, Bowers, or Andrews at TE this week…
The biggest news is what I’ve been on about all week. The Morehead State game. Speedy WR Nate Garnett will be the matchup I’m watching for against my boy. Garnett, a sophomore with 4.35 speed, already has two 88 yard TD receptions this season. Expect a battle all the way downfield.
