Well, unless the Bears defense/special teams can magically put up 40 points tomorrow, I'm toast (acb, by the way, is in roughly the same boat in Ghetto Bowl...so at least he feels my pain).

This is unfortunate...a worse choke job than a typical Laz fantasy football choke job. I finished the regular season 12-1 and heavily, heavily favored to repeat as champion in one league, only to have everyone except LaDainian lay an egg this week, more or less. This in the first round of the playoffs against a guy whose players magically awakened this week, after really not being all that reliable all year. Oh well, I guess. So, a special thank you to Tony Romo, Corey Dillon, Brian Westbrook, Anquan Boldin, Andre Johnson and Jason Witten. Neil Rackers, thank you for trying. Bears, how about a miracle?

I can take some solace in the fact that I will at least break even on the league, as there is a bounty for different accomplishments, such as best record, division championship, etc. So I'll get SOMEthing, keeping my streak of breaking even or winning money in this league intact at five straight years.
