HOWEVER, while I'm new to the game of Fantasy Football, I do know a thing or two about kicking ass.... or so I thought.
See, in reading this excellent article on Miami 305's victory of El Pollo Diablo, I noted that this win was characterized as a "triumphant victory"... with Miami coach Rubinoff even commenting "I wish I hadn't beaten up so much on those Diablos."
The score in that triumphant, beating-on-the-Diablos victory was 100 to 92.
Meanwhile, over in my match-up... my team, Team Kanderrr. Grr., scored 106 while coach Sarver's LandSharks scored....
....wait for it...
....29.
And I'm torn, sports fans. I'm truly torn. I'm, like, Tom Brady's-ACL-torn.
Because part of me feels like doing a big ol' victory dance (I know - again with the dancing) about the ASS-KICKING OF THE SEASON -- and part of me just feels like, man. There's no glory in this. It's just kind of... sad. And I think maybe I shouldn't gloat. You shouldn't feel good about just ... massacreing your opponent.
Except. A quick recap: Sarver tried to thwart my ability to really play this season. That's right - scandal in Fantasyland! When there was an error in my Fantasy Football account and I couldn't switch players or monitor my team, ol' Chip was all about the sabotage: "Come on, guys... she couldn't make the draft... she's new... and she's a girl!!! Don't fix her account!" But Commissioner Green believes in fair play, and came through.
So, I think the lesson today is that while for some, sports is a religion... that religion clearly gives a nod to KARMA.
KANDERRR! GRR!
*PS, yes, I am well aware, if karma is a part of this game, I totally and completely flat-out shot myself in the foot for the rest of the season. Worth it.
