Hoping for a big night from Lamar and Hollywood... Or I'm toast.

Know you are getting a big night from Lamar.

Hoping for a small night from Hollywood.

First off this sucks, but we knew it was coming from the posts in the summer for two of y'all.

I have been competitive in most every MBBRL league except this one and this is the one I tried the hardest in. It just seemed that all my bad luck hits in this league. I have had it as a goal to get back to the A league and win it. I wanted to do it with everyone still there.

Let me talk a little about last year 2018 and FF. My coworker in the same position as me and the big boss were going at it for a period of about a year and a half. Because he held the same position as me I was dragged into the fight and put into position of throwing my coworker under the bus or throwing my job away. Needless to say I was under tremendous stress for most of 2018. I ended up getting downsized from my job one year ago Tuesday. Which meant that I took a $200 a week pay cut after taxes which has put me under stress this year until I was able to get our bills to a point that we were good with. I bring this up to show what type of mindset I had during the 2018 FF season. Around April/May of this year when we started ramping up the Dynasty leagues I realized that I was up for Oblivion in the main leagues. It caused me to sit down and reevaluate the way I was living my life and the things I wanted out of life. It would be nice to still be making that money and I will eventually get the job back, but more importantly I still had my family as a support system and they were patiently waiting for me to return to my normal self. I learned how much this league means to me and how much it can help me IRL. I will say that the waiting period from me having this realization and seeing if I got DAS BOOT, was one of the longer periods of my life. So in ending this rant I sincerely hope this league and the Dynasties can continue and maybe be as great as they are now again in the future. To the 3 leaving you will be missed and it will take someone special to replace any of y'all.

Moving forward we will have to fill spots and fill spots within commissioner areas. I vote that those discussions wait until we have finished all the leagues for this season.

Love it obx! That's how it used to be for me as well. Hope you can keep that spirit, cuz for however long it lasts, it feels great.


Like I said, I'll stick in D1 and D2, for as long as it takes to find a replacement, or as long as y'all want me to. The dynasties are different levels of commitment, and I don't feel comfortable just walking away. At the same time, its odd to be in those and not the main one.

Well shit.
I was having a pretty good day until I got home and read all this.
Never going to be the same, but don’t let this be the end of a truly special league.

Oh, I think it will be easier than you think to come up with league replacements. .... the Treff and Bandit contributions and personalities, not so much. Me, I'm just old school. ...

Oh, I'm sure my "personality" won't be missed by everyone

Christ almighty Lefty, f'n Jackson and the Ravens D is gonna beat my whole f'n team on Thursday

Well, if it's any consolation, he's killing me in 2 pay leagues. ....

I disagree. You underestimate your value to this league.

I am not sure that LJ beating you in your 2 pay leagues is going to make Treff feel that much better.

Probably not but, man, I wish the roles were reversed in those $$ ones. ....

 

[TREFF]

Considering I'm also facing him in one $ league, no, I can't say that it does. Luckily, this dude literally has no one else. Had RW scored 3 pts higher last Monday, he wouldn't even have made it this far.

 

[MilkSpiller22]

Pretty sure at the time it was the “correct” move to bench Crowder.

but it is going to be a pain to see that 21 points on my bench for the next few days. And will even be worse if I needed any of those points to win this week.

[TKOSpikes]

Dang, this McCaffery kid is not too shabby.

Gulp

Go Bills!

 

[TKOSpikes]

And piss off, Red Rifle!! You're shooting blanks.

 

[Yellow Fuzzies]

KOTF was my best fantasy roster this year IMO. Waited until the playoffs to lay an egg. Oh well!

 

[TKOSpikes]

Julio with a 12 point final drive... Thought I had him held to 13 with under 2:00 to go.

Likely gonna be the difference.
