YOU WORTHLESS MOTHERFUCKERS KILLED MY FANTASY TEAM THIS WEEK. DO YOU UNDERSTAND HOW BADLY AND PAINFULLY I WAS FUCKED? THE GUY I PLAYED AGAINST DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE THAT ALMOST HALF HIS ROSTER HAD A BYE WEEK. SO HE PLAYED WITH ONE RECEIVER, ONE RUNNING BACK, AND NO DEFENSE. YET YOU THREE FUCKERS, GOING UP AGAINST DREEEEEAM MATCHUPS COMBINED FOR A FUCKING PATHETIC 26 CARRIES FOR 107 YARDS. MB3 HAD MORE THAN THAT ON HIS OWN LAST WEEK(28 for 142, 1 td). AND NOW I FIND MYSELF DOWN 8 POINTS TO A GUY THAT PROBABLY FUCKING FORGOT HE'S EVEN IN A LEAGUE! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!

And Jacksonville, you sorry fucks. What happened to the defense that gave up only 20 to the Bills? 21 to the Colts? YOU LET THE TEXANS HANG 27 ON YOU? AND YOU CAN'T EVEN REGISTER A SINGLE FUCKING SACK? FUCK OFF AND DIE YOU ASSHOLES.

In Belichick We Trust

So it's official, Tom Brady is on injured reserve and his season is over. The offense is now in the hands of Matt Cassel. Ever since watching the hit I've been this sad, depressed sack, and it's time to end it. If there's one thing that every Patriots fan should know by now, it's trust in Belichick. The last time the starting quarterback went down, some 6th round unknown came in and led the team to a Superbowl title. Am I saying Matt Cassel will equal or surpass Tom Brady? No(although I wouldn't complain if he did). But the rest of the team is still intact, and the offense especially is loaded, so as long as he doesn't make mistakes and throw costly picks, the season isn't over yet. It's a stroke of luck that the Patriots had the league's easiest schedule this season, because there are going to be a lot of close, hard-fought games. With the seeming decline of the Colts and Chargers, the ascendancy of the Bills and Jets, and the yearly strong opening showing by the Steelers, the AFC is wide open for anyone's taking.
