"Some people are born on third base and go through life thinking they hit a triple." Barry Switzer, to the Chicago Tribune</p>
Charles Hurth (St. Louis, Mo.):
Dear TMR, I would like to tell you about my incredible fantasy comeback
in Week 10. Before the Monday night game I was down 119.68 to 54.2. I
only had two players left, <a>Michael Vick</a> and <a>DeSean Jackson</a>. Little did I know, Vick would have the best game of his career and I won the matchup. Just call me the comeback kid.</p>
TMR: You're the Comeback Kid, Charles. Amazing.</p>
Scott (Raleigh, N.C.):
This morning the conversation at the office was about how I had no
chance to win this week. I was down 155.66 to 99.06 with only Vick left
to play against S. Moss and Akers. There was no way it was gonna happen.
Now I'm reading angry comments from my opponent because I won the
matchup 166.71 to 165.26. This has to be on a relatively short list of
best comebacks ever.</p>
TMR: Yep. Very short list. Just you and "The Comeback Kid." Oops, spoke too soon.</p>
Greg Seemann (Leavenworth, Kan.):
I am an avid football fan and play Fantasy Football on (many sites,
including ESPN.com). ... Fast forward to tonight and I am down by 68
points in my (non-ESPN) league going into the Eagles/Redskins game, with
Vick and Maclin starting, and 40 points in my ESPN league with just
Vick going. I won both. I am still in shock and am just wondering how
badly I should be trash talking both leagues after these amazing
comebacks.</p>
TMR: Talk it up. You are THE MAN. Tell them how you did it, Comeback Kid! Wait, that one's taken.</p>
Chris Allerton (Tampa, Fla.):
First off, big fan of your show and articles. This Week 10 proved to be
one of the most amazing fantasy weeks of my short "football career."
After the 4:15 games wrapped up the score was my team 63, my
girlfriend's team 118. The gloating began as I am in first place and she
is in second. Then, as I refer to it, the "Monday Night Miracle"
happened. Final score: 129-118 victory for me.</p>
TMR: What does your girlfriend refer to it as?</p>
Taylor Pennington (Orlando, Fla.):
Matthew, I feel like the Houston Oilers. I was hoping you could dig
deep into your fantasy annals and tell me if I may have made history
this weekend. I was trailing by 70 points heading into Monday night with
only Michael Vick left to play. I won by 12. Has any person or team in
the history of fantasy overcome that big a deficit with only one person
left to play?</p>
TMR: Nope. You're the only one, Taylor. High-five!</p>
