Week 8: God Giveth, Wad Taketh Away

I hate to make this post all about me, but I can't tell you how much of a relief it is to have gotten the win this week. Besides, with 5 teams sitting at 4-4 it's all about parity, which I don't think makes for as big a story as two religious figures going head-to-head.

After coming off two shameful losses to Ginny & T-Smoke, I was really down on myself. I was questioning just how much skill I had left in the fantasy football reservoir. Despite Cutler's best efforts (my quarterbacks are hands down the worst in the league), I was able to rally after getting a combined 92.5 points from all four of my keepers.

I'll be honest, I spent over an hour and a half going through pictures on my external hard drive relating to my feelings on religion before I decided I was not going to take any cheap shots at Vic. I'm a big believer in the "Clean Hands Doctrine", something Davie has probably learned about by this stage in his legal career. It means "Those who seek equity must practice equity." If I don't enjoy people pushing their religious beliefs on me, then I should offer the same courtesy in return. And that's all I'm going to say about that!

With only 5 weeks in the regular season remaining, there is a five-way tie for third place. I have the feeling that this season, much like last year's NHL playoffs, has the potential for a last seeded team to win it all. It's going to be an interesting run to the playoffs.
