MY FANTASY

Got your attention now?

Alright...this year I've got only 2 Fantasy teams going (trying to keep the marriage intact)...

Team 1: Romo, Campbell, Quinn, Gore, McFadden, Hightower, L. Washington, L. White, Coffee, A. Johnson, R. Wayne, Welker, Driver, C. Henry, Austin, Olsen, Boss, V. Davis, Akers, Rackers, Mare, Cards, Cowboys.

Team 2: Hasselbeck, Garrard, Pennington, Gore, McFadden, Hightower, L. White, Mewelde, M. Morris, A. Johnson, D-Jack, Welker, Coles, Henry, Britt, Carlson, Boss, Bironas, Kasay, T. Davis, Weddle, Packers, Dolphins.

Let's talk about Team 1 today...

All things considered I didn't think I'd drafted too badly (certainly better than recent years). But, in this league (TonyNFL 20th Anniversary Edition, 10 teams, Standard scoring), I am taking an absolute BEATING. Why? MISMANAGEMENT THAT'S WHY!

Week One I leave Romo on the bench (300+ PaYds, 3 PaTDs). Why? Cause I wasn't sure what TB was going to bring. Their passing def was 4th in the NFL last year and it was a home game. Plus I thought the Boys would focusing more on establishing their new running game- working out the kinks.

Week Two I leave both Gore (207 RuYds, 2 RuTDs) and A-John (149 ReYds, 1 TD) on the bench. Why? No excuses here. Should have started them both plain and simple. Smooth move exlax.

Week Three:
Against my better judgement (I was thinking of Washington or White instead) I start Gore against the Vikings thinking he's my stud- have to go with him- look what happened in Week Two-and guess what? The guy sprains his ankle and gives me diddly squat. No luck with Gore this year. Yes I have Coffee...but he's a Rook...a great preseason means nothing now. He's got to show and prove before he'll be worth anything.

I'd been wrestling with who to start between Wayne and Driver all week. I knew Driver would have a good game against STL but...I'm so far behind I decide to take my chances with the better player and start Wayne. Reggie delivers (126 ReYds, 1 TD), but A-John doesn't. Should have left him on the bench and started Driver and Wayne. Who knew?

Anyway, I've got Romo going tonight. Hopefully he gives me something to feel better about.

In related news, I found a great site that sells Crystal Balls. It's http://www.crystal-balls.com/gazingballs/50mmcrystal.htm?gclid=CM_X6viylJ0CFdZM5QodWHfD7Q if you're interested. Figure I'll give it shot and see if it helps.

Yeah right.

I'm out.
