I hate fantasy football

Just lost the semifinal matchup by a freaking TENTH OF A DAMN POINT.

I've never lost a game by that little, especially not right before the title game.

Honolulu_Blue · 12-23-2012, 11:49 PM

I've been on an insane run the last 3 years. I am in 3 leagues. I have been in the finals 8 out of a possible 9 times the last three years and have won 5 of them, including two more tonight.

En Fuego!

I won my third title in four years tonight. I play in three different leagues each year. All of the titles have come in the same league, and I lost in the championship game last year in that league. Dead last in one of the others, and out of the playoffs by 2 points on a tiebreaker in the other.

My father in law had Marshawn lynch and needed 18 PTs to win. Needless to say we enjoyed the game.

I lost the regular season title by 1.48 points which would have won me a small share. I then lost the championship to the same guy by .28 points which lost me an even bigger share.

I sucked this year, thought Stafford would have a better year, HAHA!

I lost a game this year on a tiebreaker that was announced on Thursday. A no gain by Tannehill was changed to a one yard loss and therefore a sack by the Rams defense. In the end that cost me the playoffs and given the scores I had, I would have won the league.

In my other league, I lost my semfinal by 1.6 points and lost the game because Frank Gore scored a touchdown off of a fumble recovery and not a rushing touchdown which our league did not have checked as an option to score from. Like the other league, I would have won this one as well.

Maybe you get lucky and there's a stat correction that changes your score.

I squeaked into the play offs after having a high scoring team that just kept losing the head to head matchups. I finished the regular season at 6-7, but I've been on a tear since the play offs started.

The final is next week, and now I just have to figure whether to play Matt Ryan or Andy Dalton in the final round.

Why on earth would you play in a league that uses week 17 for the title game?

Glengoyne · 12-24-2012, 07:36 AM

On the stat correction thing. Back in the day, I won our league when my best friend had to choose between starting Joe Montana and Steve Young, both with the niners, in the last week of the season. He ended up going with Montana, who had a completion and fumble changed to an interception by the official scorer at half time.
We played an epic high scoring superbowl, that I won 145-144.

Not only did the scoring change give me the win, but it cost Montana the single season completion percentage record at the time. Joe didn't come out in the second half, much to my friend's chagrin.

For my league...We've been doing it for twenty five plus years, and we decided a few years ago to keep it that way. Now I'm wishing we'd have changed it to match our keeper league's format, with the final this week. Of course, if we had done that, I may not have made the playoffs. In week 12 I was 5-7.

FWIW, this is a 32 team league...four eight team leagues/drafts playing through a bracket for the play offs.

AlexB · 12-24-2012, 08:05 AM

Won my league last night: first time ever! Had gotten to the championship game three times before, losing all of them, so well relieved, especially as my opponent put up loads of points on Saturday through Megatron & Julio Jones.

SegRat · 12-24-2012, 10:06 AM

I won the league I run. We have been palying since 1996. This is the third time I have won. I have been in 4 championships. I ended up with the best record, although I was tied with a team that had a horseshoe up the butt (He had 6 teams with more points) but beat me on the tie breaker. And i had the most points. I won yesterday 150 to 77.

My brother-in-law went wild with those two (and Peyton) but pulled out my first championship last night 106-96.

In the Christmas spirit, my team's name is Cousin Eddie's Posse. Merry Christmas....

Lost the championship. Played against Reggie Bush and Aaron Rodgers. Bears d helped him too. I had a good week, he just had an insane week. Win some , lose some

thesloppy · 12-24-2012, 07:41 PM

I won my 10-man league. 9th in total points, but the least points against. Because I'm awesome at fantasy football defense.

Danny · 12-25-2012, 08:18 AM

Won big in my only money league. There is money for best record for whole season, most points whole season and playoff champion. I won all three. Also had top two individual weeks which is some money each, but someone took down the top spot to prevent me from having a clean sweep of the most amount of money I could win.
