I just lost 113-91 in the 1st Round of my Fantasy Football Playoffs.

I went with Dwayne Bowe in one slot over Lee Evans because I figured that it'd be a sloppy game in Buffalo with all that snow coming down. Bad decision on my part.

Chris Redman DID get me 23 points though. All for nothing.

I'm kind of sad right now. :)

I lost my playoff game too. It's my first year doing fantasy football and my getting into the playoffs was questionable at best, but I still kind of enjoyed myself. I'm in second in my pick em league. That's my one bright spot.

Yeah, it was my first year too. Funner than I thought it'd be. I'm kind of already ready for next season's FFL to start.

I just got my ESPN College Bowl Mania league up and running. THIS should be fun. I tried last year and half my teams ended up losing. Go figure.

I won my first round game 122-110...Drew Brees came through for me along with Brandon Marshall...i also sat Lee Evans in favor of Kevin Curtis which turned out to be a horrible mistake...

the person i play next week has Carson Palmer, Braylon Edwards, Randy Moss, Adrian Peterson, Willie Parker, Jamaal Lewis, and Hines Ward...

I made it to my leagues Super Bowl which is this weekend (wk 15).

First place is $2000, Second is $800.

Ironically I made the playoffs and to the Super Bowl by winning six games in a row, with a team that only has four original draft picks on it and "zero" RB's that were on my roster week 1.

Week 1 RB's This weeks RB's

Sean Alexander Ryan Grant
Ronnie Brown Earnest Graham
LaMont Jordan Justin Fargas

Pick all of them up from Free Agency
*Cut Alexander after week seven ( so I wouldn't play him anymore, he was killing me)

My QB situation was fine. I don't know what the problem was really, other than being the only chick in the league. :D I had:

Tom Brady :kiss:
Ben Roethlisberger
Wes Welker :kiss:
LT
Edgerrin James
Vinatieri (or however you spell his name)
That beastly dude from the Pats.....uhm.......Vrabel
Karlos Dansby


Of course, for the 3rd time, Keith stole Zach Thomas from me. :tongue: And then he went on IR list. ( :( )

Maybe next time I should not worry about picking the guys with the cool names. :thinking: :thinking:

My Opening Day QB's were Jake Delhomme and JP Losman.

I ended up with Kyle Boller and Sage Rosenfels...:eek:

Lee Evans.

Brian Westbrook is the biggest part of Philly's offense.

Edwards looks to Evans more than Losman did, anyway. Evans is sure to give you nice productivity.

I'd attribute that to the amount of snow coming down in Buffalo on Sunday. Snowy conditions usually means teams will run the ball more.

I'm 12-1 and on to the 2nd Round in my ESPN league.

I've got waiver claims in for Fred Jackson, Aaron Stecker, Anthony Gonzales and Robert Royal. I only scored 125 in the win, and my main competition all season scored 193.
