Week 6 Recap

The breaking point is almost upon us. This is basically when you will look in the mirror and ask yourself, "Is this worth it? Do I really care that much about playing fantasy football?". Your record will probably be the main data point you'll look to when deciding you'll turn it in for the night.

It's tough. Especially when you give it your best effort. Then there are those who don't really care. Exhibit John, who literally didn't change his lineup this week again.

The most surprising team is yours truly. At 4-2 overall I'm hanging on by a thread. I've had the fourth easiest schedule and sixth in scoring. Fishy? Maybe Yahoo doesn't want the commish to quit on accounts of having a bad record.

Back to this almost being the breaking point, there are five teams (half the league) at a 3-3 record. I would point to the projected finishes and playoff picture that Yahoo provides, but its crock! The best team doesn't always win. For example: I moved from seventh overall to third and a division leader this past week. You've got to be kidding me. It is anyone game and you can control your destiny.. sorta.

One example of this is Russell's athletics, who are one of the hottest teams right now with a three game winning streak. After starting 0-3, averaging almost 86 points, with a plus/minus differential of -51, he has completely flipped the script. He is averaging over 107 a game and with a plus/minus of 89! Part of this transformation was him hitting the waiver wire picking up Pryor, Crowell, and Michael.

This turnaround couldn't have come at a better time. Don't wait around for comeback, go out an get it. This requires some research. Some digging. It's not easy, but anything worth something isn't easy. I know Brent would agree.
