Wasn't this known yesterday, that Warren was gonna be held out? I don't think it was a late scratch this morning. Just that he didn't feel right yesterday and they decided, yesterday, to hold him out today.

dude I've been sick.   perhaps it was announced late.  I've not been in great shape and largely not been paying attention to much.

partly my own fault I admit, but when youre sick you're sick.   and sometimes things just dont go the way you want when you are sick.

Perhaps I should spend more time praying to my lord and saviour the flying Spaghetti Monster.

Reports I saw about Warren, on Saturday he was expected to play, and was out doing warmups with his team this morning.  

[Ray_T 770]

in the end it doesnt matter.  I had him in my starting lineup.  and I'm sure a few others did too.

the european games are a little different as the game start times are a lot different due to the time change.  so it mucks everything up.   you always need to be more careful with the timelines of when they announce a player can or cannot play.

but being sick, I didnt really worry about it all that much.   I was in bed early, and work up late.  it was glorious to get that long of a sleep.   especially since there are kids in the house who usually wake me early but didnt because their mother took steps to prevent that from happening.

either way, the week is a writeoff.    nothing has gone right for me so maybe it was meant to be.

Rest is the best way to get over whatever you have. Unless you're playing in a huge $ league, it's just water under the bridge.

it was a huge $ league, but thats ok.   its only one week.   If I lose (and I probably will) I will be at 2-2.   it shouldnt ruin my season.     I still have Mixon coming back from injury at some point (hopefully) and Rice coming back from suspension in a couple more games.    so the hardest part of my schedule is mostly over and I'm not behind the 8 ball at this point.

that's all I really wanted was to survive the first couple of weeks without getting crushed.
