Fantasy Football Week 9 Was A Bust

This week my lowly team ran into the top of the heap. My 4–4 team of mostly wire pickups and free agents got to know the joys of playing a team that was build from the draft to win, and hadn’t suffered injuries the way mine did. They are 7–2 now and the post season is receding further from my future.

Ajayi was my top scorer again, coming back from his BYE week, but he didn’t pull in the 27+ points he scored the past two weeks he actually played. And it seems like every one of the 5 guys who had a BYE week last week played worse this time around than they were playing before taking last week off. I’m gonna have to remember that for the future – guys tend to play worse after a vacation.

Being in 6th place among 12 teams make me fear I’ll not make the playoffs, but at least I’m enjoying the season. I hate the millionaire footballers who think anyone actually cares about their politics, but the fantasy football owners provide some fun each week. And I’m still boycotting the league as far as not watching any game because I choose not to support advertisers who promote political statements. But the numbers are still easily available and actually more entertaining than the games.

Yesterday’s Fitness

I was set to do some general fitness rather than a run. My goal was to do the following:

10 Push ups, 10 Sit ups, 10 Squats, 10 Jumping Jacks

And I easily made it…1 day in a row.

It’s good to start out slow and this is about as slow as you can go. I also got in over 10,000 steps…12,725 actually and I climbed 13 flights of stairs.

So I’ll count this as a success and look forward to tomorrow where my plan is the same as today…10 Push ups, 10 Sit ups, 10 Squats, 10 Jumping Jacks.
