Team starting to hit the wall? Want to feel better about it?

[Vicious Sandwhich Attack]

Hey all,

Not quite P's&T's, but anyway...

Just to help everyone feel better, if your team is not looking great, take heart; anything can happen.  :)

I participated in a Draft League this year and as you will see below, was looking very comfortable all year, then lost the big dance to a team that I beat by 726 points four weeks earlier.  :'(

Stalwarts that served me well all year that failed all at once.... Ibbotson, Douglas, Masten, Nicholls, Walters.. not to mention captain Griffen being sub-par, who took over from Watson when he went down.

So if your mid-pack just squeezing into the finals, and you your team doesn't feel 100%, a lot can change in the upcoming weeks.
