Rock? Meet The Hard Place.

You know, they say the flip-flop is bad, but this week? I flip-flopped, my friends... and I couldn't be happier. That's right, I went 3-1 this week! Was it the puppies, or Javon Walker's improbable reverse? We may never know... but what we know is... that's right, I won three times as many games as I lost. Which is okay by me.

In the office Yahoo league? Sadly, that was my only loss. Thing is, I played Robert, and I've never, ever beaten him in a fantasy game, so my hopes weren't exactly high. At least after the loss I only dropped to fifth. Lookee:

17. mmmmmm..beer 2-7-0
18. Jumers Junkies 1-8-0
19. Blitzburgh 0-9-0
20. Pig Skins & Beer 0-9-0

It's interesting that this is the league I had the lowest hopes for, yet I'm 7-2 so far. I know nothing about fantasy football.

In the "All Together Now" league? I won! Oddly and improbably enough, I beat Robert! Stranger things have never happened! Check it out:

Yeah, considering our fantasy sports history, I wasn't looking forward to playing Robert in two leagues this week. Luckily, I won... and even more luckily -for me anyway- most everyone else in my division lost, so I found myself in second place again! Sorry Nancy, sorry Joe... I just like second place much more than last is all.

Over in the solo league? I won! First win in almost ever! No one was more surprised than me... except for the poor bastard I defeated, I'm guessing. See?

Yup! Back in second in my division! If I win the next game, and if the #1 guy in my division loses? I'll be #1! If I can just stay there for a few more weeks, I'll make the playoffs. If not... I'll do that other thing losing teams do: not make the playoffs. I'd rather do the former.

Last but by no means least, the league in which Nancy and I are battling it out? I won! What's the phrase? "Yahoo!"

I'm still #1 overall. That, my friends, does not suck.

At this point I'm mostly watching "FesturingTaserWound" and "Pigs" since they're the closest to me in wins/points. The good news is I'm way ahead in my own division... but the bad news is this week I play Nancy. That can be dicey enough (not just because one of us hates to lose Nancy Depper) on any given Sunday... but this weekend it's particularly interesting 'cause it's our 5-year wedding anniversary, and I'm pretty sure it's my husbandly duty to lose. Sure, I could roll over, but Nancy hates that almost as much... which is why we so rarely play Stratego. I guess what I'm saying is no matter what, I'm hosed... but I have learned that if you have to be hosed, it's better to be a hosed winner than a hosed loser... well, as long as you enjoy sleeping on the couch.
