This was the last week and if I won, I go to the playoffs. Two weeks ago I traded Decker and Ridley for Jordy (hoping for Rodgers return). Lost 121 to 116 to the team I gave Decker to because Jordy got 1 and Decker put up 41. And also he had Harvin in for Decker until 12:56 and realized Harvin was not going to play. I am pissed. My team was the tits too.

Foles
Charles
Bush
Vjax
Jordy
Vern
Spiller/Rainey/McFad/Amendola

Lost by 0.8 in a PPR league week 6 when Jimmy Graham was held without a catch. Didn't affect me but the guy who beat me got the last playoff spot and he would have missed otherwise. If he beats me in the playoffs I will be livid.

Lost by 0.04 points in week one in my 12 team league. Missed the last playoff spot by one game, and would be in if I had won that week one game.

This past week I lost 164.68-165.82 (he had Alshon & Decker) causing me to lose first place in my league. I've scored 250 more points than the next closest person, but had the most points scored against me in the league.

Lost by 3 because Gordon went bonkers and missed playoff by a game. My team would have been arguably the favorite

12 team standard

Luck
Dez
Demaryious
Charles
Lacy
Andre Brown/CJ2K
Gronk

I needed Brees to get me 26.5 pts in a PPR league to get a first week bye and win the points championship ($150.00).He got me 21 and now I dont get a bye.Lost the game 160 - 155.And to make matters worse I had Seattle D and didnt play them against Brees and if I had I would had got the bye and the cash.

Lost by 0.2 first game followed by a loss due to stat correction a few weeks later. I've still managed to get the 1 seed but those two losses piss me off the more I think about them

My bad beat is actually a possible act of collusion.

This past week was the last week of our regular season.

The first place guy played his dad. And lost. Giving his dad a better record than me by one game, I would have won the tie breaker if the dad had lost.

The son sat Chris Johnson, and Andre brown for bobby Rainey and Danny woodhead.

Oh, and he sat Calvin Johnson.

I finish one spot out of the playoffs. It's my big money league, winner gets about $2000.

I didn't realize the two were related until someone else in the league started calling bullshite.

I've never been involved in a situation like this, should I be leading the charge?

It's people my brother works with and I don't know them well at all. Only see them once a year for the draft. I haven't voiced my opinion yet. The guy who started complaining has offered his spot in the playoffs to me.

I won the league 2 years ago and got second last year. Had a solid team thus year until Rodgers went down. Though I was still in the top 3 in scoring the last 5 weeks.

Eta: sorry for the novel.

Damn, a lot of crazy stories in here.

Its crazy how your season can come down to a single catch or literally a fourth of a point.

I have a few:

1.) A trade I thought I killed was MJD and Nicks for J. Nelson. Since that trade Nelson has only had one game in double digits. MJD hasn't scored below 12.
Granted MJD would've never played in my lineup with Lynch, Moreno, FJax, and A Brown, but the team I traded MJD to made it in the playoffs over me because they won this week's game by 3 points. MJD contributed 14 of those in his flex.

2.) Tried to get J. Thomas at TE once Daniels went down. Settled for J. Cameron. Shoudn't have settled.
3.) Lost while scoring 157 points in Week 3.
4.) Drafted Roddy White. Likely cost me L's in 2 of my first 3 games.

Lost by 5.26 in Week 9 because I started Foles who scored 5.10 points instead of Dalton who scored 27.80 that week. I finished at 7th seed and guy I lost to that week is 6th seed

Not really bad beats for me (except for one game), but I had 3 straight weeks of extremely close games with the best team I've put together and I would've missed the playoffs if the first 2 went the other way:

Week 3: I won by .16 points
Week 4: I won by .3 points
Week 5: I lost by 1.08 points

I've got the most points scored by about 180 points and the most against by about 20.

If this was your first season in the league I'd have your brother calling bullshite. You DO NOT sit Calvin Johnson EVER. That's collusion all the way. Since it's your 3rd year its on you though. This is a big money league and that shite shouldn't fly. I can't believe people that do shite like this and in the other thread about the guy adding to the playoffs.

I've said it before. My wife is in my family league. She has players that would benefit me every year, and I have players that would benefit her but I refuse to even offer her a trade simply b/c of the appearance of collusion. And I love trading come week 5 of every season. Sure, if she asks me should I play D. Brown or SJax on Sunday morning, I'll give my opinion and why but that's the extent of it. Typically she doesn't even listen to me though and usually does better that way.
