Fantasy Football

This is the first ever time that I have participated in a Fantasy Football league. Don't judge, it had always seemed like a guy thing, and I didn't want to invade any bro-ness by asking to join. Also, Im Mexican, and it its not "futbol", didn't really seem that interesting. (unless you got to see it live)
My brother-in-law made this league for the family and a couple of close friends, so I have been very  carefully keeping track of what is going on Sunday and Monday's NFL football.

This week I had my first loss. It was tragic. I had been undefeated. Last week when I went up against my husband's team we were both undefeated, but only I came out victorious. But now that I have lost a game, I find myself re-thinking my whole strategy line up, (I really have no strategy). My WR, which ever they are, in my head I just call them my winged runners, don't ever seem to make the points they are supposed to.
Which brings me to the whole projected points thing. Its a mess, there really is no way to predict who will make points during a game, and so they change constantly.
 Beggining of the game. It was pretty even, I had a 1% advantage.

 A little further into the game, I had no player left, so my score was not going to go up. I was the underdog. I only got 81 points, I had been projected to get 114, you should know i was pretty stressed at this point.


 But here we are at the end. His remaining players didn't score the needed amounts, and I won!

In my game against my husband, which was week 4. I was projected to loose by about 15 points. I ended up winning by a margin on about 50.

This whole thing is quite entertaining, unpredictable, and fun.

Even after my loss last week, I am still in first place in the league because I have the most points, and no one is undefeated.
