One of the shittiest things about Thursday Night games is the possibility of having your matchup decided before Sunday games even start. To have your week ruined by either playing against someone who has someone go off or have your own guys underperforming on a Thursday night is a total buzz killer. But it does happen, and last night, there's a possibility it happened to Mike Posey as A.J. Green (who Eugene has) went absolutely BONKERS in the 1st half of last night's game with 3 TD's. He was pretty much held in check the rest of the way, but Mike was already an underdog as it was, and this pretty much sealed his fate this week. Now it's never over till it's over, but it's damn near close in this situation. Mike had Alex Collins go but he didn't really do enough the lessen the bleeding (not even 10 points). Eugene looks like he's on his way to a 2-0 start and his team is looking pretty dangerous. We'll see if he can finish it off Sunday. The only other action in the game was Albert playing two guys, Joe Mixon and Michael Crabtree, against me. Thankfully for my sake, I survived. Mixon actually looked great but was in and out of the game with a knee injury. Unfortunately that meant he didn't even reach double digits, and neither did Crabtree. Now Albert's team is still deep enough to survive this week, so I'm not ready to celebrate just yet, but I'll definitely take the mediocre start. Albert got even worse news today with the news that Joe Mixon is going to need to have minor surgery and is expected to miss two weeks at minimum. Crucial blow for Albert.
