Are you ready for some Football (Americano)!

[TwoSix]

Every year, I hate fantasy football more and more.

I scored (up to now) the highest point total of the year in my money fantasy league. But I lost because of Joe Mixon, and because my opponent happened to score the new highest point total for the year.

Literally, if I had played any other team this week or any other week, or that team any other week, it's a W. But instead, I lost the game.

I hate Joe Mixon. I hate Fantasy Football. And I hate the desiccated corpse of the Cowboys and the lich Jerry Jones.

I was heavily invested into fantasy football for about 10 years (in 3-4 leagues per season). I gave it up 10 years ago and now enjoy watching football so much more.

Eh, I can't quit it. But I have made sure that once I set my lineup, I don't check my FFL game until Sunday night, after the games. That makes it better.

You know, except for that rare occasion like this week, when I blow the roof off, and the only chance I have to lose is if my opponent sets a new record because the Dallas Cowboys have quit on their season and allowed Joe Mixon to score 3 TDs, rush for over 100 yds, AND catch 2 passes for 40 yards (friggin' PPR) so I lose by a point due to MNF.

Naw, not bitter.

Thats why my league does double headers. So it averages out. Surprising how many fantasy sites dont allow it as an option.

I wouldnt watch football at all if it wasnt for Fantasy and Redzone.

I have Redzone. But ... it's the crack of football.

Once you start it, it's hard to just watch a regular football game again....

Why would you want to? All action, zero advertisements. Watching a MN/TN game is painful. Half the time I dont.

I demand that all Aaron Rodgers gifs:
1. Are of him in a Jets uniform.
2. Include the fact that his winning percentage with the Jets is lower than that of both Zach Wilson and Sam Darnold.

 

[Snarf Zagyg]

Hard truth:

Aaron Rodgers' time with the Jets has all the pathos and schadenfreude of the "Mark Sanchez Butt Fumble Era" but without the fun.

It's satisfying, but in a very grim fashion.

It's like those Mafia circulated "Football Cards" where you bet money on. I think I won $10 in the 30+ years I've been played them. I always asked myself why I bother.

I don't watch football other than Bills games, the Thanksgiving games, a game someone that's over wants to watch (to keep tabs on their fantasy football) or rarely I stop while flipping through channels to watch a game. Most of my knowledge is trivial at best so I can't compare team vs team on a weekly level to paly fantasy football or play the cards anymore.
