Okay, maybe I made the wrong icon.

So after getting waxed by Dairyland I knew thing were going to get better. Next up on the schedule were the Sedgwick County Komodo Dragons -- which, by virtue of being a low-maintenance team with just enough roster moves to fill in for bye weeks, should be the league patsy -- and the Honolulu Harem, Llllonda's NFC-happy team which has been suffering just as badly as that august conference. I made a few boo-boos on roster moves, but when you're having the year that Peyton Manning is having -- and nobody's ever had a year like this -- it doesn't matter. Beat Honolulu 152-119.5, beat SC 139-78. Now for the hard part.

The last three games of the season come up against the toughest teams Nuffle has to offer: first Costa Rica, then Hutch, then my nemeses in the Dayton Raptors against whom I've gone 0-2 so far. Gulp.

First Rusty's Ticos. Hey, Tom Brady? Aie. Panic sets in. Marvin Harrison? Uh-oh. If Peyton or LaDainian or Drew have an off-game, I'm in trouble. But they don't. 154-85. This is the type of game I need to have against the Jaydogs and Raptors to sew up a playoff spot. And honestly, with the way these people are playing, putting up 154 points is good enough to beat the best Nuffle team. Fingers crossed.

You'd think the Dragons would be a patsy, but it didn't fall that way for me. And, I think the aviators had trouble with them this week. Things didn't go well for me this week and I've been on a slide as my streak shows. Monday morning I log in and see that my starting quarterback graced me with 1 point. Just one! Great news to start the morning. Dreading the look at the bench to see what I benched quarterback scored, I went ahead and hit the scrollbar. Fortunately, in a weird way, my benched quarterback also had a lousy week and only scored 1 point. On the good side, I don't have that dreaded second guessing feeling about leaving a huge scorer on the bench. On the bad side, both of my quarterbacks decide to have 1 fantasy point games on the same week. Arggh!!!

I like the sound of being your nemesis. Ominous sounding. Get that added edge of fear going. Unfortunately, the way I'm going, I might live up to that old sports cliché that you can't beat the same team three times in one season. Fortunately, I play the Harem this week for a warm up, but of course it's not a given.
