I don't think she lost because of luck. I think she lost because she was a girl.

LOL.
We had two women in our league last year. One finished second and the other finished third. The year before that, we had one woman in our league and she beat me in the championship. What's funny is that both women take FF seriously but when they lose, they're much better sports about it than the men in our league are (myself included). I really think it's Karma rewarding them.
This doesn't beat the original post, but I am a FF rookie who is 8-1 across 3 leagues. I'm pretty happy with that considering I only did one live draft...the other 2 were drafted based on my player rankings. I expect my luck to run thin later in the season, but I never thought I'd start off like this
Running backs combined Qtin and DD...TWO points and i still won.
But Great Record though. More poser to you.
Sorry i meant " more POWER to you." not poser.oops

How about this... This was my 2/3 of my lineup going into Sunday:
L. Coles - 4 points J. Smith - 5 points Q. Griffin - 2 points R. McMichael - 5 points D. Rhodes - 0 points J. Feely - 6 points
And I won!
Mainly because the other 1/3 of my lineup was:
P. Manning - 34 points E. James - 13 points Seattle D - 21 points
Looks like you still had 90 points. Was the other guy even close. I guess so becuz you added Ejames to your list of help.
