Story of my FF year. 
going against duke... hahahahahaha

 

Nice throw though. Right on him. Not sure what the defender was doing there

[AnchorDown 617]

A lot of hand wringing from Duke owners in his thread today. Hope they took my advice, he was due for a game like this.

YAY A MJJ CATCH

I am thankful for my opponent picking up Johnson off waivers and not starting him.

 there is no such thing as "being due"

The fact the Lions can't run at all so far on this D is sad.  I don't think this D has stopped ANYONE I've watched them play.  I've seen 4 of their games.

What about "being duke"?

[JCDaly 307]

Lol, wtf Romo, Adams having a good game.....couple of fumbles.....maybe some other stuff....I dunno

[brooklynfinest42 148]

Can't believe Watson actually threw a pass to Duke.. 14pts on my bench.. awesome.

When you dominate snaps for a team and have a modicum of talent, eventually the law of averages will win out. Combine that with a matchup against the worst team in the league against RBs and you get the result you are seeing now.

Why is Romo moaning in our ears over Patricia during the age progression?

When Stefon Diggs was doing nothing during the first half of last season, you knew he was due

Clearly you didn't own Mike Williams last year and were waiting for him to score a TD.

Dang looking like i should have went with Duke.  Sucks worse because i thought the game started at noon so i didnt get to drop him either

[affliction 2,172]

Detroit is an embarrassment but I’m loving it while owning Texans

Tony Romo as NFL announcer continues to be a gift.

Romo I liked as a player when a lot of people gave him grief.  I don't really care for him as an announcer.  He is very insightful, but if he just dialed it back about 50% he would be amazing.  He talks too often to explain stuff, instead of saying, "They are going to pass short to this receiver" and lets the play happen.  Then, he should explain why he knew it.  A lot of the time he talks through the play trying to rush his explanation to beat the play and it bothers me. As if having dead air to let us watch us a play is a bad thing. Dude knows football, and I just wish he would tweak being in the booth a bit because I love his insight. I just hate his delivery.

So...somehow they took whatever the story was behind Boss Baby and made it so he grew up and had a family, so another baby, but he's also ... still a baby?

got it.
