Week 4 of the NFL was interesting to say the least. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers shocked the Pittsburgh Steelers with a last possession touchdown, the Atlanta Falcons got beat by Teddy Bridgewater and the Minnesota Vikings, and I lost in fantasy football to a 10-year-old, named Fran.

Yes, Fran, who is in fifth grade, beat me in fantasy football and it wasn’t close; 126-85 to be exact. Granted it didn’t help that I drank the Kirk Cousins cool-aide or that she picked up Eli Manning to replace Peyton in her starting lineup.

I’d also like to thank Rex Ryan’s brother and Saints defensive coordinator, who will not be named in this article, for allowing DeMarco Murray to scamper for 149 yards on 25 attempts with two touchdowns, it netted her 26 fantasy points.

Combine Murray’s total with Eli’s 32 and I’m already down 58-5. I thought I would get a reprieve when Calvin Johnson got her one point, but Jordy Nelson made up for it with his 22-point performance.

Kelvin Benjamin was waiver pickup in Week 3 for her, and of course he scored and got her 13 points. I’d like to thank ESPN for their continuing coverage of Adrian Peterson, as she picked up Matt Asiata. It would be fitting that one of her starting running backs was on a bye, and she knew to start the Vikings running back.   

Here is her starting lineup:

QB: Eli Manning

RB: Matt Asiata

RB: DeMarco Murray

WR: Calvin Johnson

WR: Jordy Nelson

TE: Zach Ertz

FLEX: Kelvin Benjamin

DEF: San Diego Chargers

K: Cody Parker

My best player for this week was Jamaal Charles with 28 points.

Second best? The Dolphins defense/special teams with 17 points.

CJ Spiller, Julio Jones and Jeremy Maclin all netted me points no higher than 10.

The most humiliating aspect about this whole ordeal is that this was her first victory, and of course she had to create a message on our fantasy football homepage and brag about it. 

My parents told me that after high school the teasing would stop, they lied.

So when you choose your team for this week’s chance to win $1 million, give me a heads up and I’ll get you in touch with this 10-year-old who whooped my butt because obviously I don’t know anything.
