XFL Daily Fantasy week 2 https://www.wblzmedia.com/2020/02/12/xfl-daily-fantasy-week-2/

Week 1 is in the books and I don’t know about you but I’m excited about this league. No the caliber of play on the field is not NFL quality but it sure was exciting to watch! I did not publish an article for week 1 and ok boy am I glad I didn’t. Let’s just say my rankings and expectations were way off. No one saw some of these guys coming. Of course, Christian Michael is doing…

I love playing fantasy baseball, but sweet mother of god is it frustrating. Every player I take anticipating a breakout fails, only to see them breakout the first game I drop them.  Every time I struggle to choose a SS or an OF, the guy I DON'T choose will have a huge night.  Every time I take the so-called "superstar" for a high price or a high pick, they "aren't quite right" as the experts say.

Just joined Fandual.com this past week, and love the format.  Created a team my first night, thought it looked awesome, entered it in a handful of dollar tournaments and 50/50's... and won money in 6 of 8 tournaments! In a few tournaments with hundreds of people, I was finishing in the top 20 in a few of them.

"This shit is easy!" I thought. "I can make a career at this!" I thought.

Well, fast forward a few days later, and no wins since.  The most painful was last night, when I went to bed before the late games sitting in the money with 3 players still left to play, including Trout.  Woke up with big dreams of a few home runs and some top 10 finishes.  Instead, saw an 0-11, and I fell right out of the money.

Oh, and thanks Scherzer for that stinker in San Diego.  Thanks Atlanta bullpen for costing Santana that win.  And thank you most of all, Stephen Strasburg, for costing so much yet pitching so poorly against the Marlins tonight.

That's how gambling works I guess... get you hooked early, and its all downhill from there.
