The NFL Fantasy Leagues are over.

Unlike most fantasy sites, the seasons on NFL.com always last 16 games. The reason for this is because the stars of good teams that have already clinched the playoffs sometimes are taken out of the final games due to a lack of importance during the game.

This is the first season I've participated in Fantasy Football, and I'm happy to say that I have experienced a good amount of success.

This season I've participated in three leagues on NFL.Com. I end this season with a combined win/loss ratio of 36-11, two Championships, and a Runner-Up to a Championship.

Meanwhile, my version of the New England Patriots on Fleaflicker faltered after their Playoff Bye and lost their next game to the 'Big Knockers' by a rediculous 148.1 to 90.25 margin. So I'm in a battle for 3rd place that I'll be pulling my hair out if I lose. How can you score almost 150 points? That's bull crap! Does this guy have a crystal ball or what? That leaves them at 9-5

Feel free to share your fantasy victories and woes!

Fleaflicker

my team imploded at the end of the season, going from #1 in the division to #3 in the last 3 weeks, and then capping that off with a miraculous 60 point effort in the first round of the playoffs.

On the plus side, my Warner/Brees duo helped me lead the league in QB points.

Oh...

my Yahoo teams finished 4th, 4th and 7th overall, after finishing 2nd, 3rd & 5th in the regular season.

Finally

my ESPN team is in the championship game, but that league was drafted out of boredom before the season (as a ‘prep’ for actual fantasy drafts), and no one really pays attention.

Sad, because my team has D-Will & Smith, along with Peyton Manning, Matt Forte, Roddy White & the Titans D.

Though I'm fighting for 3rd in the CSR League

I’m int he Championship for my 2 ESPN leagues. In one, my long running Smack Talk League in which I’m the Commish, I’m down by 57 points to the guy who won last year. That really pisses me off.

In the other, a random Green Bay League I joined, I’m up by 14 points.

enjoy your victories Revshawn, I haven’t won a league since 2001. I get the playoffs a lot but it then takes luck to win it all and I always run out.

I'm pissed

about my fantasy league. I made it to the championship game but lost last week by get this….
.97 points. AAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGG!!!

We’ve been playing a keeper league since 2001 and I haven’t gotten to the big game before. To go down that way was excruciating. Basically I have to say AP lost it for me with is two fumbles with one lost. But of course several things could have changed it but still. I made me so mad.

Doesn't it suck when your stars let you down at the worst time?

I mean, when you start an average player you think to yourself that he might have a break out game and give good production here or there.

But when those studs that you expect 20+ points from every single game have a bad game ((Or a bad year. I’m looking at you Chad Johnson.)) It can really make you pull your hair out.
