I'm noticing a lot of this sentiment here. My reasoned and sensible response is this.
Fuck you.

I hate years like this. I have the most points scored in my league (1554.6) by 80 points, after that guy the next is 120, and most are 2-300 points behind my total scored for the year. I also have the most scored against me (1491.9) which ends up landing me at a 7-4 record. It's kind of bullshit. I keep losing to the dumbest shit, like Lynch getting 4 TD's and 46 points PLUS the same guy having the Eagles D/ST and they got like 40. My lowest score in the past 4 weeks is 150 points (.2 per rush, .5 per catch) when most people are averaging around 1-120 a week and I've lost 2 in that span. It's annoying.
Edit: Doing some math, the averages points scored in the league is 125 vs my 141 average and 135 average against me. The irony is I only have 3 weeks all season below 140, though 2 of those weeks are really bad. I guess I can understand those 2 loses because of shit like injuries that happened, but still I shouldn't have 4 loses!

A guy in my league has held on to Gordon all year since he drafted him. This is your fault Grimm!

Check out the fantasy football subreddit this week.
Fantasy Football - Reddit Style
And it's automatically changing every poster's name to variations of Josh or Flash Gordon.
edit: Also there's suddenly rumors that AP might actually play Sunday, hot on the heels of the news the league was suspending hm the rest of the year.

In my league, we give the last two playoff spots to teams not yet in the playoffs who scored the most points regardless of record to offset some of the match-up luck.Could be worse, this is my money league.

I suddenly feel a little bit better. Man that guy's getting fucked right up the ass. Our stat lines are similar but he has an extra 100 points put up on him and 2 more loses.Could be worse, this is my money league.

Funny, I just went and checked the totals out of curiosity. I have the highest points scored, but also have the most scored against. Thankfully it has kept me in a tie for first place at 8-3, but the other guy in 1st with me has 200 points less scored on him.

Experts have them as almost a dead heat.
I'd actually lean Stills. Because Josh Gordon is going to score so many points this week he'll actually be funneling them away from other AFC North receivers. I'm tempted to sit AJ Green...

Now you've got me doing this. I see myself saying some stuff and I'm all nodding my head and high fiving myself for being such a fantasy guru. Like out of these
"Golden Tate, Cordarrelle Patterson, TY Hilton, Jordan Cameron, Michael Floyd "
I said
"Tate and....probably Hilton. Cameron is stuck in Cleveland and Floyd is in Arizona. Both are on shaky teams in divisions with pretty stout defenses, plus Floyd has the groin thing. Patterson is unproven and in Minnesota.
Yeah I think you just go with the most proven QB's in this situation, Tate with Stafford and Hilton with Luck. Everyone says Tate is going to get a big boost playing alongside Megatron. "
Holy fuck, I'm an oracle!
But then I also said this...
"Jimmy Graham over Lynch easily."
But then I was a sage again...
"Ryan Matthews I don't have a ton of faith in. Too many injuries and too many options in the SD backfield....I'm staying the fuck away from CJ Spiller. He had over 20 carries twice last year. This after we were told over and over he'd finally be the man there. He gets hurt too much and Fred Jackson is too good an option to spell him."
But then this...
"Seeing a lot of really high projections for Le'Veon Bell....But I'm thinking the people projecting him as the 5th-8th best RB might be a bit optimistic."
Really the only thing I nailed 100% was shitting on Doug Martin from the get go=P
Right? Think I pimped them a few pages ago. I use the site for like 5 minutes a week just to scan my league's waiver wire usually but it's awesome. Also love the option for weekly projections to limit them to the experts that have the best results for that position or for the last 2 years etc. Feels a lot more reliable and the fucking random shit ESPN point projections that tell me Cam Newton is going to go for 21 points every single week. My team has come in 30-60 points below projection for the last 5 weeks.
