Down Year

I think calling this football season a down year would be an understatement. My Redskins got blown-out at home yesterday to bring them to 4-10. The defense looked nonexistent; the offense was what it has been for most of the year, stagnant until the defense lets up because the game is out of reach. You would think with jobs on the line would have made them perform better for our new GM. Sadly I see a few more years of continual rebuilding in the future. A lot of holes that need to be filled and not a lot of money to do so. I am thankful Vinny is no longer calling the shots.

I have long been out of the playoff talk for my fantasy team. A quick rundown of my team's statistics and you will see it was all my fault. I was a poor coach this season, having the worst efficiency rate in the league at 79.1%. That means that 1/5 of the time I chose the wrong person. When you pick 9 positions to play a game, that is not good. That is close to two people a game that I whiffed on. Those close-to-two people cost me five games. Those five games would have put me in playoff position.

As a GM I did not exactly put my coach in a great position. I whiffed pretty bad on personnel too. My total possible points only beats out two other teams. After being the most dominant team in my league last year, this year was a huge disappointment. It is a keeper league and there is always next year. Who knows, maybe I will come back and dominate.

And then it ends,
