I did go out on a limb though with my Cardinals pick. For about 10 minutes yesterday, I was doubting it...but the good ole' 49'ers did what they do and Arizona got the win and advanced me to next week.

- Colts lose to the Bears
- Eliminated 1st week of suicide pool
- Tom Brady injured on my fantasy squad
- IRS says I owe $700 in taxes (I really hate Uncle Sam)

I hate weeks like this. I'm just glad I didn't put any money on the game lol.

We should all be blaming you. A Colts fan drafted Tom Brady? You screwed all of us and other Brady owners, lol.

It felt like I was committing a sin, but Tom was gonna be money for me all year long. When you test the football Gods you lose. The dream is over.

I was gonna play Tavaris Jackson during the bye week and them dump his sorry ***, but with Brady hurt I had to pick up Aaron Rodgers. I might give Tavaris one or two chances, but I can't let him handle my QB duties.

Don't be so hard on yourself. I picked the stupid Raiders. I'm an idiot.

Dangit, for some reason my post didn't show up and I didn't get in the league , anyways I picked the Chargers so I would have lost anyways.

I think you'll be ok with Rodgers but you may want to drop TJ for Cassel or maybe a Pennington if he's out there. TJ's still got good upside but I think he'll be on a short leash and didn't look too accurate yesterday.
