The other night I became a true believe of Fantasy Football.
After watching so intently to the final moments of last night's Sunday Night Football game (9ers vs. Lions), and jumping for joy as Pettrigrew caught that TD, I knew that I had turned a corner. When else have I so intently cared about a drive in a game where the outcome was all but decided?
My whole week was saved from garbage time: I had Jay Cutler going against the Packers. For all the people who watched that game, I won't go over the atrocity of offensive blocking that game demonstrated. Poor Cuttie had negative points midway through the fourth quarter, and I believed my week was lost before it really had a chance to begin.
Thank goodness for that garbage time score. Gave me a fighting chance that I capitalized on.
