Fantasy Football Championship = A lot of Luck

I don't give a shite what anyone says, it takes much more luck to win than just being a good GM.
My top 2 players (Stafford and Megatron) normally put 50+ points on the board for me each week, easily.
Of course, right when playoffs roll around they end up in a fricking blizzard? Together they got me less than 15 points, a total fluke and a case of shitty luck.
Then, my opponent has J. Bell, who would've normally seen a more limited role. However, Reggie Bush slips before a game and misses it. Are you serious? Bell didn't have a groundbreaking performance by no means, but it's fair to say he had more points than he would've had, and that's due to a freak accident.
Then to top it all of, Gronkowski tears his ACL.
I needed to vent before I break things in this house. I finally had a team that could easily win it all, but everything that could've went wrong did, at the worst possible time.
Yes, I am mad. frick this shite.

I'm in the same boat.
I have Mega, Dez, Jordy, Forte, Bush (Made a GREAT decision yesterday and played Reece), AND streamed the Bucs DEF yesterday and am still gonna lose te first round unless Dez or Murray score a TD because te guy I'm playing (Who I beat 146-80 last week) started Tannehill, Hartline, and Clay and the Miami freaking Dolphins went tha frick off.
Not to mention Celek can EABD for sliding (Foles is my QB).

I lost 127.54 to 127.36 in the Super Bowl two years to the biggest douche in our league.
I know this is supposed to be for fun but I really wanted to deck that summa bitch.
His trash talking was funny and everything but I got tired of hearing about it. He brought it up a few times at the IRL Super Bowl party several weeks later.
he kept farting and spilling his drink everywhere too.

Same boat, brother. Felt my team was ready for the playoff push. Stashed guys all season and it was paying off.
Stafford, AP, Andre Brown, Leveon Bell. Like 20 total points.

Winning a championship probably takes a little luck, I think making the playoffs is probably a better judge of a good fantasy manager than winning it all.
