Has anyone EVER had worse luck than this?
So I'm in the semifinal of my league this weekend. For weeks I've been dreamin about making it this far because I have Joseph Addai and who does he face this week? The Detroit Lions  Surely he will rack up 200 yards and 2 tds vs the terrible Lions defense.
Oh but wait. The week before the Lions game he gets injured. And his backup, Dominic Rhodes, is on my opponents team. 
So there is about a 60 point swing in my opponents favor.

No, I don't think I've ever seen a key fantasy player get injured the week before a matchup against a weak opponent. I can't imagine what you must be going through...

I did four leagues this year. Finished 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th. Never had a 0-4 week once during the regular season, and only once went 1-3.
Just lost every single friggin' one of my first round playoff games, two of them by two points.
I am apparently the John Cooper/Lloyd Carr of fantasy football this year. Just call me Mr. Consolation. AARRGGHHH!

I have now played FF twice. Both years, I finished 1st in the league with way more points than anyone else. Both years, I lost in the first round of the playoffs with everyone on my team completely underachieving.

I tied my first round game - scored more points than any other team in the league (other than the team I tied of course). Have scored more points than anyone else each of the past two weeks, and would have smoked the teams I would have gone on to play if I won the first rounder. 
Sorry Matt Cassell, Deangelo Williams, Chris Johnson and Marshawn Lynch...you guys were great
