Fantasy Funkytown

Officially in the midst of a "swong". A funk.

Only one winning day since the meltdown. I'm just too frustrated to play right now. Might take the weekend off. I've already signed up for the NASCAR multis, I'll play those.

Pre-season fantasy football is total bullshit. Everybody picked Big Ben last night, his offense was pretty much stuffed by the 1st string Buffalo defense.

So what happens? Steelers head coach sends his 1st string offense back out for some extra series against the Bills scrubs. Easy peasy TD. My team goes down in flames. (Losman also came crashing down to earth.) No more of that nonsense for me.

The more I think about the baseball situation, the more I think it's just variance as opposed to a specific leak. Just can't seem to get offense and pitching on the same day. I've been a victim of two late scratches this week as well. It's been a month or so where big players don't perform on the night I select them. Haren, Oliver Perez, Ortiz, Manny, Arod, Mauer, Morneau, Soriano, and JD Boo, just to name a few. (PS - I'm NEVER touching Hiroki Kuroda again.)

Kaiser continues to do decent, although he isn't dominating (from the contests I've seen). Congrats to him for running so well.

I'll probably play regular season football and of course I'll play hockey AMAP. The college contests are an unknown at this point. NBA multis are probably all I will play, if any.

In other realms, poker is grinding slowly along. I don't know if I'll get the volume in this month, but the results are decent.
