I concur. Listen to my season -
I play in a 12 team, 3 player keper league. (We get to keep 3 players year to year, no limitations) My 2 studs for the past 4 years were Ricky Williams and Manning. I got Dom Davis off the wire last year and was really pumped for this season. (Youth is huge in our league) So I had no way to plan for what Ricky pulled and was forced to keep Manning, Dom, and Lee Suggs. I had Horn, but our league is very RB-centric, and with the preseason that suggs had, liked his chances. I grabbed Q thinking that if nothing else I would have a starting RB. Then I grabbed Steve Smith and Deion Branch.
Suggs is out the first 4 or 5 weeks, Steve Smith is lost in week 1 for the season, and Branch has been gone since week 2. Q didn't pan out - Ill take the blame on that one. So because of my hardship, I was able to grab Droughns off the wire and have put up some respectable numbers.
My main rival is known in my league as Mr. Luck. Our rivalry borders on Sox/Yanks status. Very heated. He knocked me out of the playoffs last year with one play - a catch that Santana Moss had bounce off of a defensive player for a td. (MNF, you might remember it)
This year, after this week, I have scored 961 total points, and he has scored 887. Because of our head to head system and his luck, he is 7-4 and i am 5-6. I could get into some more numbers that show how sick his luck is, but I realize that nobody is reading this anymore.
So yes, I agree that when your team sucks - ESPECIALLY BECAUSE OF LUCK - fantasy football is a bull crap game.
This has been a form of therapy for me, so if you read it all, thank you.
