I played it 2-3 years earlier and..

won it all that year, as well.. What was interesting about THAT story was that I was WAY up in the SB over my opponent.. Just a TON of points ahead Sunday night..

BUT, my opponent had Brett Favre in the MNF game.. But, no way Brett Favre wins that championship for him because he'd hafta play LIGHTS OUT and score an unheard of amount of FFL points to be me.. So Sunday night my friend congratulates me, even tho Brett Favre was yet to play..

So, Brett Favre's dad passes away and Brett Favre plays Monday night, anyway mere hours after his dad passed away.. and Brett Freaking Favre's receivers are making circus catches ALL NIGHT, and by halftime of the MNF game against the Raiders, my opponent was maybe 10 points behind me, easily within striking distance to beat me..

I'm FREAKING out.. my friend takes back his congratulations at half time and I'm resigned to the fact that I'm about to blow the biggest lead in Super Bowl FFL history because of one dude, who really shouldn't even be playing..

..and then the Packers sit Brett Favre the entire second half.. the Football Gods had smiled down on me.. and my friend was PISSED..

Friendship is like peeing your pants.. Everybody can see it, but only you can feel the warmth..
