sketch27 1 Posted November 29, 2010 Okay, so its true, the anomalies of fantasy football can stay with you for ever. 2 years ago losing in the playoffs to Antonio Bryant and Steve Smith's combined 70 point week and this year being Vicktimized by the felons 57 point effort are two such examples. I know I'm not the only one who has overreacted and completely embarrassed themselves in the name of fantasy football. Most of mine are your run of the mill screaming obscenities in parking ramps or outside in our neighborhood. Smashed a beer bottle off the fence in the common area of our condominium. Smashed up a cell phone once. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joey Gladstone 33 Posted November 30, 2010 Other then some swearing and griping, I've never done anything of note over a fantasy loss. As far as being a Seahawks fan, I did break my cell phone by chucking it against the wall 3 different times during their playoff loss to the Packers in 07.

IndyFan 2 Posted November 30, 2010 Over a game that is 90% luck? You guys need serious help! Second time I've seen this post --- It's not 90% luck. If it were how can you explain that in 24 years in one league I have won 11 titles and another guy has won 7.

If its 90% luck here is your equation 12 team league... (1)^.9(2)^.9(3)^.9(4)^.9(5)^.9(6)^.9(7)^.9(8)^.9(9)^.9(10)^.9(11)^.9(12)^.9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jocstrap 8 Posted November 30, 2010 Nice play Laurence's Nuts and Flahawker. I have thrown the remote into the brick fireplace on a couple of occasions. The remote broke apart and I put it back together again, again, and again. Either the remote designers knew these would be flung across the room to begin with, or I'm a freakin' genius repair man.

WhiteWonder 2,735 Posted November 30, 2010 You flip a coin 9 times and get 9 heads. On the 10th flip, what is the probability of getting heads? i guess that analogy would work in a 2 man league. and the league wouldn't be fantasy football, but rather a fantasy coin flipping league. point: way too many variables in FF to be talking about random probabilities.

My point was that you cannot logically assign a lack of randomness, aka luck, to FF merely from the fact that the guy won 11 times in 24 years. If you would prefer: if you roll a 12-sided die 24 times, it could come up as the same number 11 times, and be 100% luck. HTH Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cyclone24 1,913 Posted November 30, 2010 Ill admit....last year i put a hole through a bedroom door after Kaeding made a worthless field goal at the end of a game....in a game SD was getting pounded...to beat me by one. Wouldnt have been that bad but the week before.....i lost by one point bc Lendale white got stopped for a 1 yard loss on his last carry which cost me a point, which made me tied with my opponent and i lost on bench point.s Which....wouldnt have been so bad but i lost the week before by 4 points after Andre johnson went for 200+ yards receiving to beat me. 3 weeks....3 losses...total of 5 points.

CornKobb 48 Posted December 1, 2010 had a college roomate who finally submitted to fantasy football and picked steve young early and it was around 96 when the first few games of the year san fran was running the football around the goaline a little more and young missed another td due to a goaline plunge. The roomie had a bright red washington apple he threw at the wall and it exploded into at least 90 pieces followed by a FAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!
