Argh!
We're not even officially done with the first week of Fantasy Football and I already hate it. Stupid game!
Steven and I debated whether to start Tom Brady or Brett Favre this week. Steven was concerned that Brady wasn't going to start. I was convinced that he would because the Patriots are notorious for their misleading injury reporting.
So, we started Brady and Brady did start the game. But then got banged in the knee and is out for the season. There goes our first round fantasy pick. He got us a whopping 3 points before being done for the year.
How did Favre do? Well, he threw for 2 touchdowns and 194 yards and would have scored us 18 points. Considering that we're down by 14 going into tonight's action, we certainly could have used those points.
We also tried to be smart about our starting defense. We have Green Bay and Detroit. Green Bay's going to have a tough game against Minnesota and Detroit was playing Atlanta. Everyone's been talking about how Atlanta's offense is going to stink. so we started Detroit.
What happened with the Defense decision? Atlanta lit Detroit up like a Christmas tree by scoring 34 points. Our Defense got us zero points. Our opponents scored him 17.
Steven called me in the afternoon and said, "So, pretty much Fantasy Football ruins watching football for you, doesn't it?" I replied, "Yep." He was sick we hadn't started Favre. So was I. I think we made the right call on starting Brady but the football gods are incredibly cruel.
