Welcome. I created this website to analyze the state of fantasy football in a way that may overtly express my frustrations and cynicism. Along the way, I hope to help my fellow owners and learn from my mistakes. Because, let me tell you, I will make a few.

That being said. Let me say something that I feel needs to be said. Fantasy Football is much like Poker. Just because you lose a hand, does not mean you played the hand wrong. Could a 7-2 hand beat pocket Aces? Could Isiah Pacheco score more points that Jonathan Taylor this week? Could Darnell Mooney score more points than Justin Jefferson? Certainly. All of these scenarios are in the realm of possibility. But, if you were to make that bet time after time, you’re going to lose money.

I know that those scenarios are a bit exaggerated, but there is a moral to the story: make your bet on probability, not past results. As I continue this blog, I will further access what I mean by probability in the fantasy football context.

One thing that I find funny about many of the “Fantasy Football Experts” out there is a lack of transparency regarding their own fantasy franchises. I admit that there are some exceptions to the rule, but many of them don’t bother to show their audience how their teams are doing. Maybe it’s because they think their audience doesn’t care. I don’t know. But, I suspect that one reason could be that they do not want to suffer any loss of credibility. After all, what credentials make someone a fantasy football expert?

Anyway, here’s a baseline of my progress so far this season:

Like many others, my roster has taken a hit due to injuries. I could certainly use Ja’Marr Chase’s return. I cannot complain too much though. I got lucky with Kenneth Walker’s rise to relevance, and I got carried a few weeks by Tony Pollard.

Currently, I am in 6th place. In this league, everyone plays each other every week. So high score would go 11-0, and low score would go 0-11. Also there is no playoff system, and the fantasy season ends with the NFL regular season.

I know I was pretty straightforward in this post. In the weeks to come as I provide some analysis, I will get a little more cheeky with my posts.

Anyway, good luck tomorrow!
