Basically, started the night 35 points back but I had Arian Foster, Sydney Rice, Ahmad Bradshaw, and the Baltimore defense and he had Andre Johnson.
My guys made up quite a bit of ground and I ended up taking a 9 point lead with 2 and a half minutes left in the Texan/Raven game last night. The Texans took the ball over inside their 5 yard line and had to drive the length of the field with no timeouts. The one thing that could not happen to me is for Andre Johnson to score a TD. So what happens? Andre Johnson scores with 20 seconds left! Since I had the Raven defense, I lost points there and he gained points because of Johnson. All of a sudden, I find myself down by 3 points.
Then the Texans convert the 2 pt conversion to tie the game sending it to OT. I was thinking I'm still not out of it because I have Arian Foster and maybe he could do something in OT. However, the Ravens won the coin toss and I was thinking they will come down and score and that will be the ball game and I'll lose. The Texans end up forcing a punt. They take over inside their 10 yard line and on, I think it was their second offensive play of OT, Schaub throws an INT for a TD. Because I had the Raven defense, I got the points and ended up winning by like 5 points. UNBELIEVABLE victory!
It sends me into the second round of the playoffs (the final four) and I am the highest remaining seed.

Whatever happens, you can't let Deepie win. If that means tampering, start tampering!
I beat Deepie in the Championship 2 years ago.
It's Deepie's league so I think only he can "tamper." Still, I expect to beat him badly enough that it wouldn't matter even if he tampers.
I'm in it to win it!
Actually, I have/had a tough road to the championship. Paladins United had the second most projected points behind Scott. Hoo Knows? is a solid team. I beat them in the last game of the regular season so I expect them to be looking for revenge. In fact, I think my easiest game will be if I make it to the championship.
I actually stayed up to watch the game because of the back and forth craziness of JKSD's and Palladins' CEAFOD showdown...and because my opponent had Ray Rice. Awesome. It was 152-153, Palladins, for a while. Such a high scoring game that needed the last play of the Monday night game to be decided is why fantasy football is so great.
In the end it won't matter though as I will win it all and reclaim my CEAFOD title.
It was an epic battle and arguably the game of the decade.
It's just the kind of game that gets my guys ready to make a run at the championship.
