So, you were you handed your seventh loss of the season last week, huh? In most leagues, that's usually the kiss of death. After months of obsessing over everything from your draft strategies, to waiver wire pick-ups, to the Week 10 weather in Pittsburgh, you are now relegated to wondering "what could've been."
If only you had gone with your gut and taken Jay Cutler instead of Jeremy Shockey in the seventh round of that keeper league, or if you had just listened to your buddy who told you that Chris Johnson is going to be a super stud in Tennessee, maybe you'd be in the running for a championship.
But you're not. Your season is pretty much done and instead of being that selfish human paraquat that screws up his whole league because he has no shot, you still set your lineups and scour the waiver wire in an effort to squeeze out a couple more victories or spoil someone's season.
Yeah, it sucks but one thing you might not realize is that you are actually at an advantage...for next season.
