Fantasy Football Sob Stories?

So I played Eli, Danario, Josh Gordon, Ridley, Martellus, and Tynes. Benched Moreno, Kaepernick, Antonio Brown. Opponent had Adrian Petersen. It pains me to write anything more. Does anyone care to share their humiliating playoff losses? Fantasy football is just too unpredictable

    Missed playoffs by having 5 losses. 4 out of 5 of those losses were lost by .1, .7, 2.2, 3.7, and well.. the 5th one I lost by 80+ points against a guy who I was projected to beat by 20 points. League's about to end, and his score against me is still the all time record at 197 points. So.. yeah, this year kinda sucked for me.

    Last season was the worst with ESPN - every weekend, by halftime, it seemed as if a couple key players would have a "D" after their name after limping into the locker room; missed the first-tier playoffs in an epic collapse after a 4-1 start (7-6). What you learn fast is to take the "expert" projections and toss them into a trash can.

    I had danario as well and started matt stafford and the jets didnt do good enough job of defense for me to win to send me to the championship and i lost by two points and if i would have started palmer i would have won even though he did not do much better at least my other two teams made it to the championship.

    I started Boldin and Demaryius but had had Moss and Crabtree on bench and lost by 3 points. Also started Vernon Davis over Pitta. Same team. My bench outscored my starters 75-52.

    UGH!!!!!!!!!!!

    I sat Aaron Rodgers in favor of Josh Freeman. It looked so good on paper and all the statistical evidence favored Freeman...but obviously that was a god awful decision. Not surprisingly it cost me my season.

    I benched Beanie Wells, you know the one that scored 3 TD's this week. Where did that come from?
