The Anti-Christ had a head injury too

It's halftime of the Eagles-Bears game, and I'm enjoying the fact that my fantasy football fate is not in the hands of Jay Cutler...or Joe Flacco.

On the other hand, my newly acquired starter, Kurt Warner, left the Cardnails game with a head injury. How long will he be out? I don't know, but he scored 22 in about a half. His injury gave the Rams a chance to catch up, and they ruined my pick, as Arizona won, 21-13, just missing the nine point spread.

The Jets made a similar comeback against the Patriots, but interceptions from Mark Sanchez slammed the door, as the Pats rolled to a 31-14 win. While the Jets snuck to within ten, New England eventually covered the 11 point spread. Given that the Patriots led 21-0 early on, losing this one would have been hard to stomach.

I expected a similar blowout from the Colts, who started as a one point dog, and closed as a 2.5 point favorite. They won 17-15, narrowly covering the 1.5 I gave up when I bet the game Friday morning. I expected this sort of outcome at minimum, but then again, probably everyone else did too. It's hard to sneak up on anybody when you're 9-0...or 10-0.

The Redskins snuck up on the Cowboys, and blew a 6-0 lead to ultimately lose 7-6. Dallas narrowly hung on to their collective scalps, but didn't come close to covering the 11 point spread. I went 3-1 on the pros this week, 4-1 including my LSU cover at Ole Miss.

With Jason Avant the only player remaining for my opponent, he has a 6 touchdown to 3 lead on me. I must have many more yards, because I'm leading, 136-96. His two WR's and TE have a combined five catches for 29 yards and 4 touchdowns! On the other hand, mine have only one score between them, but have about 250 yards, 161 of them from Calvin Johnson.

It's the middle of teh 4th quarter, and the Bears lead 20-17. Jason Avant just caught another pass without getting a touchdown, giving him 3-21 and a TD.

LeSean McCoy just scored, giving the Eagles a 24-20 lead. This is nice because he is not Jason Avant. The Eagles are coveing the (-3), for now. This is nice because I have sworn off betting Eagles games.
