Lost to Geo week 3 by 1.5pts and now beat Geo by 1.1pts in week 12. Despite a valiant effort by Russell Wilson and the seahawks in the 4th quarter I was able to eke out the win.
I must say, this year’s AF FF season has been highly competitive despite the lack of shit talking and trades.
For the non particpants the current standings are as follows (with proj week 12 winners). Top 4 make the playoffs.
9-3 BEN (TR) not sure about his AF id
8-4 Bankin’
8-4 Roberto
8-4 Zerobonus
8-4 Geo
7-5 King Kong
5-7 Matt30
4-8 Dead Money
3-9 Numi
0-12 MAGA (Feel really sorry for this dude. I think this is his first season playing and he has remained active for the entire season but has yet to register a win. At this point it is all about pride)
Key week 13 match ups: Roberto vs Geo (This one is most likely for the last playoff spot) and Bankin’ vs King Kong
This is why I dislike season long fantasy football. In my league (not AF), I have the second most points in my league, the highest points against and I am 4-8, out of the playoff hunt. Sour grapes, but this is my last year playing season long fantasy. Not enjoyable for me anymore.
I know with time I will probably be back, but right now I am not all that happy. Might try Draftkings…wait
Need to start 2xRB 2xWR and 1xFLEX from this grouping (presented as I currently have it set in my lineup, with Yahoo! projected points in parentheses):
Couldn’t get the formatting right for copy/pasting…
Anyhow, losses by Bankin’, Zerobonus, and Geo along with a win from King Kong have got us in a place where we have five teams battling for the final three playoff spots.
Ben is the only one to have locked up a spot, and Matt/Dead Money/N/Maga are mathematically eliminated.
Haha, well the interesting part is that I don’t think that’s a crazy longshot.
Since you’re so far behind in total points, two of the three of Bankin, Zerobonus, and Geo would need to lose.
But Geo has a very tough matchup with Ben, and Zerobonus has Numi in what has got to be one of the best sleeper picks out there…Zerobonus is favored by a slim margin right now (according to yahoo: 108.83 vs. 106.45), but Numi’s record is really deceptive. He has scored 120+ in 6 of 13 weeks, including a 146 point explosion during week 13.
Man, I think GEO launched himself into the playoffs (and past Zerobonus) with his 135 point effort this week…He needed to outscore Zerobonus by ~40 points and outscored him by ~60 points.
^ Yup, I’m in for a first round rematch against Ben as long as Lamar Miller doesn’t put up 40+ points tonight. Crushed ZeroBonus on points this week. Poor guy.
Congrats Geo for the blowout win. Great season of FF this year but too bad I ended up on the losing end. I had 2 chances against the bottom 3 teams to secure a spot and my team decided to put up two back to back duds. Oh well, such is life in FF world.
FYI I will be benching assholes Megatron, Julio, Ivory and Eifert this week to do my part in lowering their % started stat in Yahoo FF. Fk 'em.
