Back to back 0-5. I need to reevaluate my life. I can't believe how poorly this is going.

I feel like 12-38 last 50 has to be the worst stretch in the history of Savage. I'm sure I did something wrong, but I just don't see any way this group of players should collectively suck this bad.

World 1: My KD scored 16 points in the final 80 seconds, including a buzzer beater game-winning 3, to give him 42 points for the game in just 24 minutes.

World 2: We were up 60-48 at halftime against Rob, but gave up 43 points in the 4th and lost. Matrix almost got a 5x5.

World 3: Westbrook was…efficient?

World 4: I barely escaped a crazy Steph Curry 4th quarter and eked out a win by just 1 point.

World 5: An insane triple overtime where Kobe, Dirk, and Moses finally put away my Westbrook/KD/Walton trio after tons of buzzer beaters and other theatrics.

What a crazy slate for my teams.

Quick update for the stretch run. Wish I had time to do more...

Pulling away: Chewy


Treading water: 24kpyrite, robusk; jcred5, dBKC


spoilers: amerk, 20ks, ty84moss



Slipping late: edsortails, steelers, dh, jpevans, jhsukow

My only good team is L4 and 3-7 in L10. What timing!

Slipping late is generous.....4-16 in the last 4 cycles. My aching head.

I ******* hate my teams, this league, and all of you.

Well, that last thing is completely and totally untrue, but it felt right to say at the time. The first two, though? ******* spot on.

My teams are all collapsing. Disappointing but ready to try again next season.

I don't love my teams either, but like, I am in second....

Better than treading water, but not pulling away

And another 0-5. Pretty effed up.

I knew going in this wasn't my best Savage squad, but it's still really ******* disappointing. Inexplicable runs of like 3-15 with three separate teams took me from first in division, conference, or even league in three separate worlds to 5/6 seeds. I was even out of the playoffs for a while on two of those teams!! Good luck with whoever takes piece of **** Jokic next time - even with that insane season he's about to get, I'm not going to ever ******* touch him again in this league. Nor Tatum. My God, was that dude garbage!! Ben, Favors, and Brandan might be the only dudes that I even consider taking in the near future.

What.
A.
Shitshow.

Good luck to those who actually have a chance. Looks like it's a two-horse race heading into the playoffs.
