Your “It’s Just A Fantasy” SNF Open Thread

Because Scotchnaut  got shamed today while buying beer at the pet store, and thus is now drowning his sorrows with Modelo and single malt, you’re stuck with me tonight.

If you didn’t do the required reading earlier today, you won’t get those references.  And thus you should feel as much shame as him.  Even more, actually.  At least he was trying.

Though he didn’t buy me a puppy so I’m kinda still not happy with him.

My Fantasy Football Season Is Over

And good riddance.

At the time of this writing, I’m not technically eliminated from the playoffs.  But it would take a minor …  errrrrr yuuuuuuge miracle for me to recover today.  Thus, unlike a certain Alabamian sex offender we all know and love, I’ve already extended my concession to BeastmodeAteMyBaby.  Dude kicked my ass but good to finish off my unremarkable late season slide.

Karma’s a bitch.

I’ll remember that the next time I think about giving someone shit, even as good-natured/humorous as it was intended.  Sincere apologies to Covalent Blonde  on that one, and congrats to her for then also  kicking my ass and starting my late season slide into oblivion/also-ran status.

King Hippo  also kicked my ass during that slide, but I expected that one.  And he can just suck it anyway.

No, seriously Vlad.  Dude’s enjoying my first round bye and  winning dough like he gotz a horseshoe up he arse.

(though at the moment, my Yinzer moneyline bet is still looking OK)

((never mind…P*ts FG ties it up…. Jerks))

On the bright side, at least I don’t have to root for Tawmmy to get me the FF win today.  And that’s priceless.

Break a leg, Tawmmy….literally.

So Who We Got Tonight?

Oh.  Crap.  Really?

Dallas @ Oakland (+3.0, o/u 46.0)

The Fighten’ JJ’s are still without Zeke for one more week (hey that rhymed).  Yet they’ve found a way to limp to a coupla wins lately and keep hope alive.  Dak Dak Dak seems to not be ded anymore…20/32, 332 yds, 3 TD, 0 int last week.  Then again it was vs the Gigantes.  But if they can find a way to get out of the bay area with a win tonight, anything is possible once Zeke hits the field next week.

The Fighten’ Al Davises (Davis’ ?, Davis’s ?) on the other hand, have hit upon hard times and have little reason to expect that to change.  Amari Cooper is out for tonight, which is probably being seen as good news for Crabtree and Cook owners.  But it probably shouldn’t be.  Marshawn Lynch is due to disappear again, and neither Richard nor Washington have shown the ability to carry enough of the load when he does.  Trust me, I’ve owned all three of them this year.  Much to my chagrin.

If the Raiders protect home field and win tonight….?  It probably won’t matter, considering they have to travel to Philly and NawtSD to close things out.

If the ‘Boys get the road win tonight….?  It could springboard them into the postseason.  Because beginning next week, they’ll be a different team with Zeke in tow when they host Seattle and then close out in Philly.

Sooooo….who wants it less?

Prediction:  Cowboys 27, Raiders 17

And no, I’m not betting on this game.  No way in hell.

Checking In On My Last Bet Of The Day

Oooooh, TD Yinzburgh!!!!

Dammit, Antonio Brown out for the rest of the game….of course, this  week.

smgdh

Oh well….

OK then, go talk about it in the comments as usual.

You can even feel free to make fun of me.  It seems a popular thing to do around here lately.  And it makes me feel very loved.
