I hope Cruz does well for you tomorrow, and I hope Stafford has another repeat performance from last week (which means I'll double up on the points with CalJo!) As muc has I could use Cruz what with Jennings going down for the season, I am still really happy with that trade. Glad I took Stafford instead of Cam, it saved me last week.

Well, you didn't have that choice because I wasn't going to give up Cam. I thought that trade worked well to, that really jumped started my season, especially when Maclin went down and Desean went ineffective. Helped me push me to where I am now. I hope Cruz does well tomorrow too. Even with a 41 point lead, that hardly feels good enough against Az's team.

see you in the finals! I think this one definitely comes down to who got the better end of the trade. My two other players I traded for (Forte and Jennings) are toast. Looks like the Texans are locked in with nothing to play for so hopefully Foster sits this one out. My guys in Detroit are playing for seeding that will help them avoid New Orleans, so I think they will be going full tilt. And they face a Packers team who have locked up home field and weren't very good on D to begin with. Cruz is gonna come back to bite me in the ass. In hindsight I should have tried to send you Stevie Johnson, but you probably never would have made it this far and taken out some super teams like AZ and the others.

Pretty sure I am gonna come in second, but it has been a fun season. Good luck Warthog!

P.S. - I picked up Ben Tate

Yeah, good luck to you too, Brook. When I started 1-5 I never dreamed I would be here in the championship game. Just glad I made it there. I like my momentum though finishing 8-2 and all my guys finally showing up. A bit worried though because I think I shot my proverbial wad this last weekend, can't imagine them all showing up and playing that good 2 weeks in a row. And just think, I would never be here if the Chiefs wouldn't have manhandled Aaron Rodgers. Great job guys.

I am glad you reminded me about Foster though, you are right, they may sit him. Might go with Felix Jones, they'll probably play him a lot.

Alright Brook, we'll see what happens. I have benched my biggest point winner for the year, Foster, in favor of Felix Jones, and have inserted Maclin over Nicks, which is against every experts recommendation. I guess this will be good, because the deepest team should win. Good luck.

P.S. Too bad you didn't have Aaron Rodgers.

At the end of the year, it's always funny to look at your original draft and see how much it changed. My starting QB was drafted last. My opponents QB today was drafted 12th. It's weird to see who is not there anymore.
