How I lost my league

[sunysteelfly76]

Having just finished msaint's book ( ) I feel the need to tell my fantasy story.

It's my main local league (total points, with a unique scoring system), this was our 11th season. I had a really good team overall and had a great season. I spent 10 weeks in first, 6 weeks in second and was in third once. I finished 2nd, 35 points behind first. My keepers are Priest and Manning and I ended up being stocked at WR: Chad Johnson, Daryl Jackson, Javon Walker, Eddie Kennison and Muhsin Muhammad. All five ended up in the top 15 for WR scoring! The problem was I was too stocked at WR and I couldn't seem to make the right calls from about week 12 on.

 

Week 12

Started(12 pts): EK(6),MM(0), JW(6)

Benched(42 pts): CJ(42), DJ(0)

 

Week 13 I decided to start 2 RB (Blaylock(12) and McGahee(0))

Started(54): CJ(42), JW(12)

Benched(117): DJ(36), EK(42), MM(39)

 

Week 14

Started(12): CJ(6), MM(6), JW(0)

Benched(54): DJ(30), EK(24)

 

Week 15

Started(63): DJ(0), MM(30), JW(33)

Benched(36): CJ(0), EK(36)

 

Week 16

Started(24): CJ(18), EK(0), JW(6)

Benched(42): DJ(18), MM(36)

 

Week 17 everyone combined couldn't keep up with the guy who won it.

 

Woulda, coulda, shoulda ... so close. :violin:

 

Can't wait untill next season.
