Damn you Rex Grossman! Damn you to hell!

Jump back two weeks. The Crack Addicts, 2-3 following a resounding 70-31 victory over the Hahoe Mask Drama, were poised to reach the .500 mark as they held a seemingly insurmountable 26-point lead over the Samcheong-dong Rabid Marmots going into the Monday night game. The Addicts had the aforementioned Grossman and Muhsin Muhammad left to score points while the Marmots countered with Anquan Boldin and Thomas Jones. This one was in the books.

But then the unthinkable occured. Grossman played what may have been the single worst game in history for a quarterback - at least from a fantasy football perspective. Four interceptions and two fumbles. Six turnovers from one player!!! The end result was minus seven points. Adding insult to injury, Muhammad scored zero points because of Grossman’s ineptitude. Meanwhile, the Marmots got 16 points from Boldin (against the Bears’ defense!) and five from Jones. A twenty-eight point swing and the Addicts were dealt an absolutely devastating two-point loss.

Still reeling from the defeat, last week I made what I fear is going to prove to be a horrible trade. Darrell Jackson for Byron Leftwich. Right after the trade went through Leftwich was added to the Jaguars’ injury report. He ended up playing, but was ineffective as the Jaguars got smacked by the Texans of all teams. Jackson simply went on to put up 16 points. Wallowing in a funk from the Grossman debacle, my team whimpered to an 18 point loss to the Itaewon Sweet Life last week. I may have to change the team’s name to the Crap Addicts.
