Fantasy Football Therapy

It's Crunch Time: Breathe, Don't Overthink and Breathe

Here we go folks, it all comes down to these next few weeks. I'm here more for your mental well being. We're all recovering fantasy football addicts and the first step is admitting that we have a problem. So in these tense times where the playoffs are upon us, focus on wellness first, breathe, recognize that it's not life and then tweak your lineup for domination. If you've managed things well enough to make it to the playoffs, now is not the time to overthink things. Stick with they guys that have gotten you there. No one team in the NFL has nothing to play for at this point. And that, is good for us fantasy shlubs. So whether you have Manning (Peyton....I know, if you had Eli you're likely not in the playoffs, sorry) Rodgers, Brady or a top tier running back, play them, regardless of matchup, regardless of how they've performed over the last couple of weeks. This is where the big dogs step up and the starts shine. Unless you're hurting because of injury somewhere, now is not the time to get cute with sleepers. Keep your eyes on the prize and first and foremost, watch your blood pressure, take a breathe and feel the liberty in realizing you have no control over how your team actually performs once that lineup is set and Sunday rolls around. Good luck!
