Named BLACK DWARF JUGGERNAUTS, we not only defeated Raegan's a Calvin Fan 136.6 - 92.2, but I was again the highest scorer in the league (for the third week in a row and fourth time this season). At this point I feel the need to start boasting, although I know luck is a big factor.
It wasn't all beer and skittles, as I made a bone-headed decision right before game time to bench my linbacker London Fletcher, who promptly scored 24 points to make me pay. I could have had over 160. Luckily I didn't need the points (and wouldn't've, no matter who I played, as the next highest score was 121.)
My dad was of course highlighted by Tom Brady, whose Patriots just demolished the Dolphins. Brady had 5 touchdown passes IN THE FIRST HALF!!!!! Part of me idly wondered whether he could get 10 if they left him in. I say yes, but sadly we will never know. Still, any time your QB scores that many you're a happy man. (Look down below at how many points Brady scored compared to others.)
One potential landmine: two weeks ago I was fortunate to play Kenton Keith instead of Joseph Addai, whom I heard was out, and Keith responded with a huge game. Good for me, righr? Wrong. Because of his great performance, Indy is now splitting carries between the two backs, and I cannot really justify playing them both. (You only get two RBs a game, and I have to start Adrian Peterson, even if the Minnesota have their heads too far up their own asses to run the ball through him like they should.) Addai is now less valuable to me than he was. Grrrrr.
All in all, though, a nice weekend. I won both of my Suicide Pool picks too, so viva me!
