My league isn't that much, but I finished 1st, had the most points in the league. Was rare if I finished with less then 115 points, had won 7 games in a row and this week my team puts up 75 points.

So I finished in 3rd and am facing a lesser opponent. Top 2 gets byes, I beat the top seed in regular season, lost to the #2 which lost me the tie-breaker and that and stupidity are going to cost me.

So I get up yesterday after sleeping way in. Something I rarely do, but was up very late Saturday. I set my lineups and feel good. The one thing is I have Julio Jones. All week everything I heard was that he was going to play, so I left him in knowing that I have Steve Smith available to play for him should he be out.

I am a Pats fan, but I spend every Sunday glued to the TV anyway, but this week given that the Pats play tonight and we have some Christmas stuff to get done so I thought I'd surprise the family and hang out with them and get some stuff done. We go out to the mall and my wife and I buy reindeer jammies to get our picture taken with the kids and Santa. My son wasn't going to do the jammies picture this year because he is 9 and too cool to wear jammies with Santa, LOL. I said I would do it if he did.

So, of course I forget my phone. I NEVER forget my phone. I have it with me in the shower, in the bathroom. Everywhere. It takes forever to find these stupid jammies, I get home after 4:30 and Julio is out, I can't change my lineup. Grr.

Still shouldn't have been a problem, but I had Ben get me -0.2. Melvin Gordon 0.5 (played Doug Martin and him over Demarco). The 0 from Julio obviously. Doug Baldwin 4.6.

It's an IDP and while I had Jamie Collins get me 19, he has Vic Beasley rack up 31. Of course.

I now need Julien Edelman, Martellus Bennett and Rob Ninkovich to outscore Malcom Mitchell by 35.6 points to win. I would feel so much better if I had Steve Smith too.

This will that haunt me for at least year as I traded away a lot of my draft picks for next year.

At least we have a family photo to help me remember I am an idiot.

I finished dead last this year in a family league. My wife finished ahead of me. She plans to remind me often throughout 2017. It's going to be a long year as the Sacko winner.

Finished 2nd in the league. I was blowing teams out by 50+ points all season long.
Just lost 1st week of the playoffs with a horrible performance from Carr, Evans, and an injury to Gordon in the 1st quarter.

I would go with luck because it's going to be frickin freezing in KC and luck will be playing in a dome against a lesser Defense than Chiefs in my opinion

Made the playoffs with my rag tag bunch of RB's, but now thats its playoffs I'm not sure who to start as my 2WR and Flex.

I'm gonna use my flex for a WR since I've got a good group, just can't decide exactly what 3. The choices are

Jordy Nelson @ Chi
Dez Bryant vs TB
Julian Edelman @ Den
Golden Tate @ NYG


I'm thinking of Nelson, Bryant and Edelman but Tate vs NYG just seems like it might be a better move than Bryant or Edelman. Any suggestions?

**** Todd Gurley and the Rams offense. Why I thought I'd run him against that D is ridiculous. Shoulda just went with McKinnon against the porous Indy D. ****

That might not matter since it sounds like AP is going to play this weekend

I think your decision should be between Edelman and Tate... just not sure which way to lean. Edelman gets a tone of targets but that Denver D is pretty good. Is it a PPR league? If so maybe lean to Edelman, if not go with Tate?

Also into the finals! How sweet it is to have McCoy and Zeke!

I went 10-3 during the season, got the Bye and now with a win off to the finals.

I've now won 8 straight and will certainly be expecting to see my team get totally blown out in the finals...because well it's fantasy football!

Yup. Had both of them. Doubled up my opponent to reach the finals for the third year in a row.

Down 8 points in 2 leagues with Cousins playing tonight. One league has just him left and the other has him against Reed so I'm feeling pretty good about chances to make the finals in both leagues

Championship week and I have so many tough choices. Toughest choice for me is deciding between Big Ben and Dak Prescott. Also need to pick two of these three: Eli Rogers, Vernon Davis, Eric Ebron.
