No, that would be me.  My team has 19 points now to your 23.  My guys are -6 for the season and haven't scored hardly any points since that first big night.

Likewise I'm in 10th place because it's a head-to-head league but my team is fifth in points scored.

That makes for an interesting observation:

TEAM                      POINTS SCORED                  W-L STANDINGS

Dressel                            297                                         4th
JJKS                                  260                                        5th
Bug                                   233                                         1st
JayDouble                         209                                         2nd
Zod                                  205                                       10th
Brian                                 195                                          6th
Ryan                                 194                                          7th
The Spud                          189                                        11th
Maris                                 188.5                                     12th
Scott                                 183                                          8th
Kevin                                 179                                          9th
Matt Carroll                      174                                        3rd


In bold are the numbers that should jump off the page at you.  The most noteable mismatch in Points Scored and Position in the Standings W-L is Matt Carroll, who has scored the least points, but is ranked 3rd overall.

Time to look at that chart again...  I'm now fifth in scoring - but I'm dead last in the standings.

How f'd up is that... 

The one game I won (you'll recall...) was the one week I got 20 points from Hasselbeck and 20 points from my kicker - haven't had a decent game since.

I really really thought I'd be sitting at 3-2 by this point... the whole Hasselbeck only needing one TD pass last week and not getting it combined with starting Evans over Barlow did me in, and this week just leaving my roster the same as it was the week before would have been enough to come out with a 2 point lead this week.  It's all monday morning quarterbacking... I just can't guess right from week to week when it comes to Lee Evans or Kevan Barlow.

Larry Johnson has a messed up neck and now it looks like I just lost Fitzgerald for 2 to 5 weeks.

And with Harrison on a bye next week, I could be without my first, second, and third round pick.

 

How I would have played that one basically would have  been the same as your strategy.  I'd have figured, pre-game of course, that Barlow would get more touches than Evans and the Jaguars D is probably a little less intense than the Bears.

Can't feel bad about that one, you're probably gonna win anyhow.

That was my thinking as well.  But now Leon Washington got most of the Jet's carries today - and Barlow wasn't hurt.  So I had to pick up Washington and I'll have to sit them both until it shakes out.

Meanwhile, I need Heap and Lewis to score about 9 plus whatever Denver's defense scores - I was feeling pretty good about my chances until Gates caught that TD pass against the Steelers tonight.


I also have to keep my fingers crossed that Larry Johnson is okay for next week - that facemask was flat out nasty.

I'm dead in this survival league, but Indianapolis almost gave me a heart attack in my other one today.

Can I vote for swimming Jar Jar?

Agreed Cory - I really like Leviathan too.  They just played a pair of shows in Dallas with The Bronx, and sadly I missed them both.





I just got back from seeing Electric 6 tonight - incredibly fun show.
