I'm pretty sure I finished with more points, too. we will forever remember both of you as the greatest ever 3rd and 4th place teams this league has ever seen. i'll have some trophies engraved tomorrow.

double ouch. 1-21 from my hitters today with 3 gidp. that also stings. somebody bloop a couple doubles or something and i win...cripes.

i don't know if i want to do this next year if we count the last week. i lost by six points (??) and i had three of my best hitters not play today and another two play 1/2 a game. and one of my starters threw 3 innings yesterday. this shit is too time-consuming to come down to a week of spring training games. ouch. starts of -1, -2, -6 and 2 in my lineup. starts of 19.5, 15.5, 33.5 and 27 on my bench this week alone. that stings.

quit your bitching. i throttled your ass fair and square by like a million points to get to the championship.

notre dame sucks. pipe down.

oh come on.

who cares about a "balanced" schedule? i like the two week finale, but this week shouldn't be a part of it. mccann, choo and rollins all sitting out today, the last day of the championship matchup. that's ONE THIRD of my offense.

I really have no idea how Arnaud regressed as much as he has from last year to this one. If he plays like he's capable of playing today they probably win and are 50-50 to go bowling. Now they're pretty much done. In other news, the stat lines in the Houston-UTEP game are insane. Keenum went 51/76 for 536 with a 5/0 ratio and lost by 17. Donald Buckram (great name for a RB) had 32 carries for 262 and 4 TDs for UTEP. This may be mostly a gut feeling (or wishful thinking to improve Iowa's SOS) but I think Iowa State is getting to 6 wins. I think they beat Baylor and Colorado then they upset Texas A&M or Oklahoma State (I know beating one of those two teams may be a stretch. But I'm not impressed with Oklahoma State and it's at home and A&M just isn't that good). I'm not sure if 6 wins puts them in a bowl but I could see them being eligible for one. i wish i could get on board with this, but isu had so little margin for error and they already effed it up. they almost HAD to beat k-state if they wanted to get to six. they had four winnable games on their schedule...now they have to beat colorado AND baylor AND a&m. they could afford a slip up in one of the four winnable games, but it really hurts for it to come in the first of the four. now they have to play very well in their next three winnable games, and that's going to be hard to do. seriously, losing a game on a blocked PAT. only iowa state. probably win that game if robinson doesn't get hurt...

my LVP for this week would be cole hamels and his two starts totaling ZERO points. so glad i treated peavy for him and david wright, the vance law of his era.

wow, luckiest team ever. can't wait to see what they pull out to win the insight.com bowl.

this week alone i've got starts of 33.5, 27 and 19.5 on the bench...meanwhile starts of 2, -2, -6, in my lineup. hamels out after three [expletive] innings. i am BEGGING you guys, take this last effing week out of the equation. i don't care if it means an unbalanced schedule or whatever, but you cannot make the most important fantasy week of the year the least important week of the year for 95% of teams. it's absurd.

i need detroit to clinch today so they throw out the B team tomorrow against danks...

wow, [expletive] YOU, cole hamels.

i think i'm up by 2 or 3. i have three starts left to kevin's one. of course if i knew how to pick my starters, i'd be up by a gazillion... the 9th inning of the sea/tex game last night may end up being the difference...2/3 ip, 3 er (-10.5) for aardsma translated to a save from francisco (8.5). that's almost a 20 point swing in the span of one inning.

calm down, wolverine, i'm sure you've played organized sports before.

circling the drain at this point...garland really fucked me.

shit...i can't even hit homeruns right...choo's hr cost danks a cg shutout! we're pretty much tied with a one start advantage for kevin. fucking hamels killed me tonight...two outs nobody on in the 7th and he ends up giving up 3 runs.

always nice when a manager leaves your starter in to intentionally walk the last batter he faces and then that guy ends up scoring. nice 5 point kick in the balls.

will probably happen.

wow, that could not have gone much worse. my relievers finish off the week by parlaying a possible 15 point day into a -15 point day. pretty huge fucking swing. if those two fucks just do their job, i'm down a manageable 20 points or so going into next week with a real chance of taking this. all in all, about 40 points from my seven starts (vazquez goes for 40 by himself), two double digit negative starts and only two double digit positive starts, and six points from my pen. nice waste of a 13 homer week.

good point.

I thought losing to UNI was pretty special uni would be 11 point favorites against penn state. lol. if it was played at the uni dome. penn state wouldn't stand a chance in that environment.

it's not every week you get to beat the 9th best team in the worst BCS conference in america, notre dame. soak it up.

can't believe iowa risked a blocked FG...
