That’s why they play the game

I know that when a fantasy football nut like myself tells people who don’t care about fantasy sports stories they get kind of stale. Since this blog is directed toward nuts like myself, I can’t resist telling you all about my game against a buddy of mine this week.

Allow me to set the stage…I’m trailing by 21.5 points heading into the Cowboys-Giants game and he has nobody left. My only prayer is the Giants defense who I picked up out of the free agent pool earlier this week because my Bears are on a bye week.

Somehow (I still haven’t figured it out) the Giants recorded six sacks (one point each), four interceptions (two points each), a safety (two) and a touchdown (six). If you’re too lazy to do the math, that gives me the win and my buddy an anxiety attack. The game was sealed on an eight point play, a 96-yard interception returned for a touchdown by Kevin Dockery with 2:33 left in the game.

I truly can’t imagine a more horrific way to lose a game so if you have some stories to share, do so here. Oh and don’t forget to send me your studs and duds for next week if you think you can touch me.
