Did your Fantasy Football team win?
WhaHoo...I won on a tie breaker...:-) 77 to 77 , but my bench outscored his... hahahah... what a way to start the season..:-)

I had Eddie Kennison and Tony Gonzalas in the Sunday night game... Gonzalas didn't score a point for me :-(.. but, Kennison had an awesome game...with over 100 yards recieving...:-)

1. Won in 3 out of 4 leagues
One was almost a tie, but my bench helped out a little.

The one loss was to the guy who had Curtis Martin.

But I did have Daunte Culpepper in 3 leagues (Pennington in the other). And I got to rub it in the faces of the guys in one league who laughed at me for taking him over Deuce McAlister.

7. Awesome Choice...:-) Our Fourth year as a league - With
Friends and Family. We have twelve teams. I personally think Culpepper is a close second to Payton Manning. Both can tear you apart.....

I have Matt Hasselbeck.... He had a great year last year....was solid last Sunday ..but only gave me 10 points.

I was in three leagues last year... It just got to confusing LOL....

2. Won in two of two
Won in my DU league 93-61 and in my office league 133-71. In my office league, my QB is Culpepper, and my RBs are Holmes and Martin.

Who knew Martin would rush for 196 when it took him four games to reach that mark last year?

8. Your going to hard to beat this year... wow.. Martin was a great
surprise!! It looks as though they are going to be using him more... lets see if he can keep the numbers up. :-) Culpepper can be streaky..... just hope he doesn't have his off weeks when you play a top team. :-)

3. Not so much.
I had Manning at QB (ok)

Stephen Davis at RB (uggh)

Kevan Barlow at RB (unnh)

T.O. at WR (Woo-hoo)

Steven Smith at WR (ARRRGH!!!)Broken Leg?!!!

Freddy Mitchell at WR (unnh)

Christian Fauria at TE (stupid, stupid, stupid--Ben Watson, anyone?) Traded his ass for Bubba Franks.

Viniateri at K. (OK)

The Ravens Defense (JEEZUS!!!)

So, I'm hoping for a strong second week.

9. Yeah.. keep your hopes up... everyone will be having their off weeks...
I play the top team next Sunday.. his team had 111 points.... I had 77 points. He had Brady, Holmes and Martin....

But..Everyone but one, of his players is on the road. I have a new line up.. Hasselbeck, Fred Taylor, Warrick Dunn, Kennison... Ravens...

All but one of my players is at home.... I will have overwhelming home field advantage. I think my opp. is the best team.... but I may sneak by with another close call....:-)

5. Went 2-1, but I was just awful in all three games.
The two games that I won, I had the lowest point total of all the winners.

And the one I lost? That's the DU league, and I was absolutely humiliated. I'm in the cellar.

10. 2 out of 3 ain't bad considering you did what I did and barely won...
but that is good news... because as I stated before, everyone will have an off weekend. :-) Make some adjustments... I picked up a couple potential point producers off waivers... Antonio Bryant... who had a awesome game Sunday.... and with Parcells at the helm... he could have a great year!

6. I tied, and I blame it all on Bill freakin' Cowher!
I got Duce Staley as a running back and freakin' Cowher puts Jerome Bettis in to get the touchdowns! I'd put a Tonya Harding hit out on his knee, but I cut a guy and put him on the team. Woot.
