the numbers are fun

and payton manning breaks another record, the most touchdown passes in a career, and he and his receiver, thomas, help me win one of my fantasy football matches this week... alas, jackson is the loser in this one and it doesn't help her turn around her worst start in her fantasy football career (we have careers in fantasy football... are we sports geeks or what?), but it does healp me stay afloat as i am having one of my worst starts ever as well... her record is 1-5-1 and mine is 4-3... i've got a shot at the playoffs and she does not unless a very unlikely series of injuries happen to key players on every other team, so she's accepted this season as a write off and is being a good sport by playing it out to be fair to everyone... in our other other league, it is currently about the same... she is currently 1-5 and will likely be 1-6 after monday night and i am 3-3 with an outside shot at coming back but the it'll take a huge game from the last running back i have playing monday night... fingers crossed... the playoff picture is about the same as well with her having an extremely slim shot and me having a reasonable shot if i can win some weeks going forward...

in the espn league my opponents have scored 590 points in six weeks, more than anyone else had to overcome (second most is 542) and i've scored 559 in six weeks, second only to 577... that guy's opponents have only scored 466 points and yet he is 3-3 too... jackson's opponents have only scored 486 points, but her team has only scored 397 points, lowest in the league so far by a lot... alas... in the other league, i am about in the middle in stats... jackson is at the bottom in both points for and points against... it's a hard knocks life, or something like that...

still, win or lose, for me the numbers are fun... and fun is fun :)
