My Fantasy Football Season Comes To An End…
- Posted on Tue, December 20th, 2011 by Ja Dawson
The score: Wolverines 102.30, Ether 98.49. Yes, I actually lost my first round playoff game by a “whopping” 3.81 points this past weekend. 
In some ways, I wish I had simply been blown out because I wouldn’t be still second-guessing my week 15 lineup decisions today.
Sure, I was handicapped by the fact that I had just lost wide receiving stud Greg Jennings to a regular season-ending knee injury just a week ago. But that’s no excuse, injuries are a part of the game.
But I am kicking myself about the decision to start Kellen Winslow (vs. Dallas) over the Eagles’ Brent Celek, who set a franchise tight end receiving record with his 156 yards (and a touchdown) against the enigmatic Jets.
Even with that, I entered the Sunday night matchup between the Ravens and the Chargers with Ray Rice and Vincent Jackson still left to play, trailing by only two fantasy points. My opponent had Ryan Mathews left.
You’d think I would’ve won with that setup? Wrong, I got nipped by the aforementioned score.
But that’s fantasy football. There are no excuses nor any crying. I’ll leave the crying to the Dallas Cowboys (see post image).
Just in case you were wondering, I am a Washington Redskins fan (insert smile).
