The 2008 NFL season is 4 days, 16 hours old - and my fantasy season is already over.
After making a blockbuster trade with this guy, sending a hobbling Matt Hasselbeck and Larry Johnson in exchange for reigning MVP Tom Brady, I had to restrain myself from sending the “I just won the league” email to my friends.
After Brady went down with a season-ending injury in the first quarter Sunday, I’m done. I’ll have a shot at picking up Kurt Warner or Matt Cassel (no relation to Sam) to replace him, but I’m effectively done.
I’m reminded of the 2005 season where I made a blockbuster trade for Jamal “The Curse” Lewis, who was just coming off a 2,000 yard rushing season, then proceeded to stink it up for the rest of the year. Tom Brady now inherits the title of “The Curse”.
Congratulations, Tom.

It just keeps getting better. Marques Colston is out 6 weeks with a broken thumb.

Compounding the misery, I believe Jamal Lewis went into the tank because he was also imprisoned for selling large amounts of drugs.
Boy, can you pick ‘em, kiddo.
