SMELLS LIKE FN UPDOG
Props to you, SMELLS LIKE FN UPDOG. Assembling a team that won by more than 22 points this past matchup.
Bad caseof Connerhea
Here's a list of scenarios where it's (borderline) acceptable to go 0-for-2 in sports: A hitter's line in baseball, a pair of DeAndre Jordan free throws, and a double-fault in tennis. That's basically it. Going 0-for-2 on field goal attempts this past week? Sounds like Wil Lutz might be kicking himself to the waiver wire after this effort.
