Josh Sitton is right. I think Detroit is the dirtiest team in the league.

If I'm Cleveland, I let Tanney start. Why not?

And Nate Burleson with the goose egg right after I yank CJ for him.

Mike Tomlin, professional dumb-ass. Nice job, Tone Loc. You may have cost your team upwards of $100K plus a draft pick.

EDIT: I was watching that game. In my years of watching football, it's beyond rare to see the head coach of the kicking team looking directly opposite the kick returner screaming down the sidelines about to burn his special teams. Of course, I also saw a kicker technically false start for what may have been the first time in history, so I understand weird shit occasionally happens.

However, the camera managed to catch Mike's smirking reaction after the play was over. I'm convinced he knew what he was doing and did it quite intentionally.

Would be a great excuse for the Steelers if they wanted to fire him...

So I need a PPR win this week and I'm playing against the worst team in the league.

Naturally, he's starting Lev Bell, Alshon Jeffrey, and Mike Floyd, who are currently killing me. Then I got the race between Andre Johnson, Garret Graham, and Case Keenum's shitty QB play. Gronk's doing ok, but he's missed at least a couple targets he could've had for a score. He's got Welker left. I got Woodhead, Beast, and Russel Wilson. Just fuck me.

It's a 3 div league, the weakest div leader is down one game to me and the other leader. He's going to win because the fucktard playing him started DeAngelo Williams. The other leader is going to win because he deepthroated Satan before the draft this year (leads in points for AND points against by substantial margins, all his starters are top ten). I lose every tiebreaker for a bye week. All the div leader have been on multi-game win streaks and I've barely kept up because I have at least one WR that consistently fucks me over. FUCK YOU, Nate Burleson, fuck yo pizza-obsessed self.

My opponent has Jeffrey for 39 points, I have Vinatieri for 24... neither of us has any other player with >9 points. 7 players left between us.

Just fuck. If Woodhead wasn't sucking as well, I might have an outside chance of the Seahawks and Saints getting into a barnburner. Bye week is fucked unless...

NO lights up Seattle's D. One of the dudes who'd beat me on the tiebreak could lose if the worthless shithead playing him hadn't started DeAngelo Williams. I need Brees and Pierre Thomas to go crazy with help from the Seahawks kicker.

Need about 60 points. Fucked. CJ scored 24. Going to bet Wilson and Lynch combine for at least 36. MotherFUCK.

I'm beating Stranger by 16 for the division crown, and with a 1st round bye on the line.

He's got Jimmy Graham going tonight. I've got Lynch and the Seattle D.

I'm 9-3, he's 8-4, but he won the first match up, while I've outscored him on the year by 9 points. (Tiebreaker stuff) Only one other team kept pace with us, and he's 8-4, but holds both tiebreakers over Stranger. He's also got his game locked up.

I'm also trying to grab division winner and best record bonus cash...

You're Washington. Your season is fucked. RG3 has been playing like RG0.5. Why not toss Cousins in?

Because you were stupid to draft Cousins in the first place?

He deserves a shot, but benching RGIII will kill his confidence, and make your coaching staff look like morons.

Is letting him play, crash, and burn going to build it up?

More than 27 points from Wilson + Lynch in the 2nd half? Eh, maybe. Maybe like a democrat's chance in Texas.

Jeebus. If NO can make this real and maybe I get a receiving TD and some garbage time from Lynch...

I knocked off Stranger for the division crown, a first week bye, and the #1 seed!

Not doing as well in my work league. Didn't realize it, but they play a 14 week season. Ugh. I'm a game back in my division at 7-6 tied with another team at 7-6 and a game behind the top two teams, both at 8-5. Ridiculous. Two fucking leagues, and I'm in the toughest division in each.

Anyway, I play the current #1 ranked team, and if I suck, I think I put myself into the playoffs. We shall see.

I'm playing the #6 seed who forgot to start a real RB last week. I'm going to enjoy kicking his ass up and down the field.
