Head-Case Fantasy Football

[shellylh]

That really sucks Brent. Do you have a bacterial or viral infection? Caused by the flu? Get lots of rest if you can.

The score now is tied 108-108. Houston was getting slammed by the Ravens during the first half - I think it was 21-0 at some point - but Schaub really came back for me in the second half getting a total 37ff points in regulation time to put me 2 points ahead of you (until overtime when he proceeded to throw an interception and end the game with 35 points and a tie for us). Don't know what next week looks like though.

That was a massive comeback Shelly. I think you get to pick Brent's team name this week.

My team has sunk to new levels of suckiness. Two players with 0 points, one with -2 points.

[MoonShine]

Cry me a river. 3 players with 0, one with 1 point.

And this was a good week

Grrrr... When I was able to do more than roll over (around 4am) I checked and it had -- for two of your people. I was happy. NOW I wish I would have played McNabb for 19 more points. This is ridiculous! A TIE!?!?!?

Grrrr...

Re: type of bronchitis, they didn't say. No bloodwork, just talked, listened to breathing, gave me scripts. I had been much sicker 11 hours before, so it didn't seem as bad to them at the time, even though I was still feeling miserable.

Are the playoffs head to head or total points? The rules only mention the playoff seeding which we are past

[VPI]

Head To Head, two week games

[shellylh]

I am confused. I thought we summed week 14 and 15 points and whomever had the higher total score (out of me and Brent) would play the one with the higher total score out of Deepak and Jeff. Is that correct? That seems to be what is implied by the week 15 box score.

Nevermind, I think I know what you meant. Head to head viewing weeks 14 and 15 as a single game (as round 1).

It means you are playing your opponent head to head and it is not all 4 teams playing for total score to win. Once you beat MD and Deepak takes me out you two will play head to head for the championship.

OK. Just as long as I get to beat Brent this week.

[Salt Peanuts]

It's a good thing I didn't make the playoff - 37 total friggin' points. I'm fairly certain that is the lowest points I've ever scored on a fantasy football.

[deepak]

I think I was on the same page as Shelly re: scoring. When I think of it as head to head, the team that is 2-0 moves on or the team that is 1-1 with higher overall score moves on.

[VPI]

It is total points for the two weeks. So if I beat you by more than 10 points next weekend I win. Aything else and you win.

It makes sense, I am crystal clear on this now

[MexicanDragon]

Grrr... Seriously guys, I need to get to the finals just so I can beat Jeff. Tis my one and only desire for the upcoming Jesusmas season!

That is all.

[shellylh]

Hey Brent, you may want to change your QB before tomorrow, McNabb has been benched.

[VPI]

The playoffs are starting to get more interesting.

Yup, I gambled by keeping Adrian Peterson in the lineup. If he doesn't play that will surely knock me out.

[MexicanDragon]

This is depressing...

**BRENT**

[VPI]

Yeah Brent, after early Sunday results last week I thought you were going to run away with this.

[MexicanDragon]

Did I mention this was depressing? First loss in what, 7-8 weeks, and it was the second biggest game? WTF happened to me beating Jeff FTW? I had already ordered a mantle to place the trophy on. I'm sad.

Here's to hoping for Chicago Domination tomorrow night. Cutler for 80, anyone? Anyone?

**BRENT**

[shellylh]

I don't know... I think it is pretty fun.

Hope I don't end up regretting benching Marshall and playing Ochocinco.

[deepak]

Looks like Ray Rice comes through for you Jeff My only hope is Deion Branch not wreaking havoc on the Packers tonight

[VPI]

Looks like it all comes down to Adrian Peterson vs. Matt Forte and Deion Branch for all the marbles.

[trevorlane]

I almost got knocked out in my league with AP, but I have Johnny Knox as my backup (and I was down 5.3 pts). This week was all luck, but I think I should've gotten negative points since I had the Giants D starting.

[deepak]

Yeah it stinks to get knocked out like this, he played every game he was put down as questionable. Good luck to Jeff and Shelly.
