You think that's bad? Remember a few posts above where we discussed Stafford vs Mahomes? Well I started Mahomes. On our fantasy site (fleaflicker).Had to go with Van. Lost semis by 1 pt after record setting season in my league of over 33 years. Brady killed me. Rodgers killed me with last minute throw putting him over 200 yards getting my opponent 1 more pt. Adams dropped Rodgers last throw of game which would have given me 1 more pt. Bears last minute TD and 2 pt conversion made Seahawks throw instead of taking a knee giving Lockett a chance at 1 more catch giving my opponent 1 more pt. Kamara killed me last night getting me only 2 pts. Last ditch effort and poor throw and drop of screen that probably gets me 1 or 2 pts and extend game killed me.
Played Van over Reynolds and Toney who each had a point.
Would have been playing my son in the Super Bowl.
No, I'm not rethinking this too much. Happy F'n New Year to all.
Then, I wasn't watching the game realtime, so i couldn't look at the site (spoilers), but kept saying "Thank God I didn't start Stafford", as he had a horrible game (ended up with 13 points.
Then after the game, when I caught up, I checked the site and IT SHOWED STAFFORD STARTING! It reverted to a previous lineup one other time this season, but I won that game by 50 so it didn't matter. I was actually hoping Mahomes had a horrible game so it wouldn't matter and I wouldn't want to jump off a cliff. Although he didn't have a great game, still scored 17 more points than Stafford.
Final score of my game? 158 to 143. Yes, add the 17 and you'll find that if the site didn't barf my switch to Mahomes, I'm in my Super Bowl.
I started this league 30 years ago, and I wish we were still having to do it manually through email updates instead of relying on bogus programmers and technology.
