this week has been such an up and down experience for me.
first, i'm up against BookerT. this is never a good thing. i've beaten him in the past, but not often. ugh.
then, early on sunday, i saw that he didn't start matt forte (who had a MONSTER game), and his TE, finley, goes out early in the 'skins game. for a while i think i have a legitimate shot at a W. i hadz a happee.
then, half my team doesn't show up. boldin puts up a donut, barber a single, clark a deuce. thanks guys, you're awesome. i'm down 18 points going in to MNF with only harvin left. depression returns.
after 45 mins of MNF, the depression is only reinforced. after so many seasons, you'd think it's impossible that favre fogets how to throw the ball... but that's pretty much that case.
then, the rainbow appears. a 30+ yard TD throw to harvin and i'm within 4 points of earning a tie.
7 mins left. 2 horrible throws to harvin a row, both uncatcheable, that leads to a 4th down kick. i'm about to start chewing the furniture in my hotel room here. the 18-point defeat would have been easier to take, no matter what the outcome of this game is.
edit: four and a half minutes left and harvin comes within a hair of returning a punt. i'm about to call room service to see if they have any crowbars, since that it what it will take to get me off the ceiling.
edit#2: OH
MY
FUCKING
GAWD
