I regret benching Trent Richardson but I replaced him with Reggie Bush,who had a good day today.

My bench in my other league currently has 145 points.

I made a terrible mistake benching Brent Celek in favor of Jason Witten.

I wouldn't play Witten until he shows that he's actually healthy. You can tell he's still playing through pain, and it's killing his productivity.

Is there a reason the DEF scores go up incredibly high in the beginning and then suddenly shrink to a third or so? PHI had 14 in the first Q, then went to 4. Jody's DEF has 10.5 in the first quarter against one drive. 
Is it a technical thing?

Did I mention yet that I don't care for fantasy football?  Going to swear off, after this season, and start paying attention to something less random... like lotto numbers . Also, Jamal Charles blows.

You get points for keeping an opponent below 10 points. So when a team scores more, you lose that bonus.

| Below ten real points or ten fantasy points? How's this bonus thing work?
I assumed it was a glitch.

Thanks Pat. So if it's a shut out, then the DEF gets +10?

Correct. So your defense will start a game at 10 points. After the opposing team scores (if they score) you lose that 10 points.

I've been drinking a lot of liquor lately after laying off it since I was in high school. What brand you drinking?

Cheap. Starts with a C. Castillo I think. Yeah that's it. Good though. I have this 100 proof banana brandy that I mix it and some OJ with. Great cocktail for summer.
Also f**k YOU DETROIT for your penalties, ruining Aker's good kick.
"Roughing the kicker?" sh*t.

Been drinking a bunch of Crown and Wild Turkey lately. Right now, at this literal moment, I have a case of Yards Cape of Good Hope IPA. I love living fifteen minutes from that place.

Hell, I bought a case of Miller Lite.
Met a friend at a Mexican restaurant for supper, drank more Miller Lite.
Now I'm fixing to have the rest of my Miller Lite.
Are you ashamed of me yet?

As long as you consume it out of cost considerations and not out of taste I forgive you.

I do and don't, so piss on it.
To redeem myself though, I make my own sugar syrup to mix with crushed mint and Jim Beam. Mint juleps are my favorite cocktail.
