I'm showing up late to this party but I'll share my story.  I play in a 12-team keeper/dynasty league with head to head match-ups and weird division rules:

QB: Drew Brees
RB: MJD
RB: Frank Gore
WR: Roddy White
WR: Larry Fitzgerald
W/R: Denarius Moore / Felix Jones
TE: Mercedes Lewis / Brent Celek / any hot waiver wire guy
D/ST: Seattle

BN: Rashad Jennings
BN: Nate Washington
BN: Joe Flacco

MJD & Fitzgerald tanking pretty much summed up my year, and the Brees/R. White/Fitzgerald collapse at the end knocked me out of the playoffs.

I can keep three players of my choosing.  I have kept Brees, MJD, & White for the last 4 years (I won the championship once basically because of them), but I can't decide if MJD is worth keeping anymore.

I'm nervous. In five minutes the last game of the FF regular season begins - Texans at New England. I need to win to get the last playoff spot, and I'm presently ahead 113-81.

Sounds good, right?

Not really. My opponent has Andre Johnson & Wes Welker going. I got Stevan Ridley & the NE Defense.

I need the NE secondary to have a big night & shut down Johnson. Welker ain't gonna beat me single-handedly.

Gonna be fun to watch!

That was me too, jamo. After 6 weeks I was 1-5 but 2nd in points. Everyone was having their best weeks against me. But I've been 6-1 in my last 7 to get to 7-6.

See, this is something we do differently in my league...which has been around 25 years, btw...we not only play head-to-head like every other league, but we also give out bonus money for the top point earners, regardless of record. Keeps teams in it up until week 17. Plus we also play nickle a point, which teams from giving up - if you do you just hurt yourself more.

But we don't stop there! We play postseason too. Whoever you got on your roster who's on an NFL playoff team plays for you automatically. We reset the points to zero, and play a separate pool for postseason, points only. Makes the waiver wire the last couple of regular-season weeks crazy as everyone drops their non-playoff players & picks up third-string Tight Ends on playoff teams.

After 25 years we've perfected fantasy football. Ain't over 'til triple zeroes on the clock at the Super Bowl.

      Day 8 (28 Jun 26) - Worked with face position at address and overall setup - open/neutral/closed - and setting up for resulting shot shapes - using 8i and hard foam balls.  It was abbreviated as the thunder began to rumble. Got in about 20 swings before calling it.

      My Swing (GolfLug)

      By GolfLug · Posted

      Tale of two swings.  Swing 1: Slightly outside takeaway (hands move outside of target line) only to allow trail elbow over collapsing at P4. Doesn't take much to overdo it for the trail elbow collapse to only further exaggerate. That's death. Swing 2: Hands stay slight in at takeaway for a much better trail elbow condition at P4. This is a hard sell from an instinct perspective. More focus on un-weighting and re-weighting of lead foot to unlock a bit more mobility of hips and torso. A major flaw that creeps up often is me swinging flat footed and becoming overly armsy-collapsy as a result. Got reminded of this the hard way during my 2nd round match for club net championship. Was cruising along 2up until I made the turn. Then lost the swing for next five holes. Andy was playing good enough to capitalize. By the time I regained my swing on 16th, it was too late. Even Andy was like "That was a gift". Obviously that stings because have played well enough lately. Should have closed him out of the game comfortably with a few holes to spare. Shoulda woulda coulda. Tough lesson. Damn. P.S. I know the swings look very similar but trust me there is a difference.
