We went 1-3 in head-to-heads yesterday. Not great, I know. Perhaps the most disappointing player was Roman Josi who really hurt us with -3 fantasy points. Tom Laverty, my esteemed colleague here at Sports Jerks, also informed me my pick of Damien Brunner was not a good one. I can’t argue it. But per daily

Yesterday I prayed to the daily fantasy gods. In a disgraceful act of pure begging I sent my prayer over the Twitter airwaves. Maybe the daily fantasy gods actually live somewhere in the dark netherworld of Twitter as some of my prayers were answered.
