Woah Woah Woah
There is only one nation in the NFL, and that's the Raider Nation. Everyone else is just jumping on the bandwagon in recent years with that.
Niners Faithful - Now that's 49ers original. Hearing Niners Nation is not cool, at all.
I don't have much as a Raiders fan. These people can't be taking what little I got left away from me

Oh my bad, Steeler country even though Steeler nation is valid too. They've been using that phrase since the 70s. No idea who coined it first though.
Now Niner nation, I totally see your point. No such thing.

Steelers... an announcer coined it in 1975.
With the Raiders... some would say it started in the late 60's early 70's and some would say the mid 80's.
But the "nation" thing is really attached to the Raiders like no other team... Anyone but the Raiders are just fakers when it comes to using the Nation for the fan base.

GF asked me if she should take out some players because she doesn't think she has the ability to make the playoffs with her team. Told her no for the spirit of competition and all that bull****.
Luckily I still have a chance. Its going to require some massive underscoring by Brady and Steve Smith though which means my probability to win is .0001%

Sucks though, I wanted the Pats to win because of the wild card chase.

And the bad luck continues. Stat corrections puts me .5 point behind her lol
Recap:
-Lost both fantasy leagues (4th week in a row for this league)
-Niners lost (gave the game away)
-Stanford lost (gave the game away)
-Working with a fractured finger/hand/wrist (Still black and blue after a week and half)
I'll take all the bad luck now if it means I can finally see the good luck during my Christmas Vegas trip. Meanwhile

I almost picked him up as a free agent last week but decided to let it go since the "experts" said the other dude would get most of the carries.
My other team I had Rainey. Read the expert stuff and dropped him for Leonard.
Looks like I know more than the experts.... again.
LOL!
And yeah... a waiver actually worked. Because I did it on my computer. I'm convinced something is up with my ap.
It's not registering my waivers. I put some in on my ap. Went on my computer... not there. Had to do it again on the computer.
And I'm not much better with Rainey than without. I need a QB. LOL!

Whatever experts you listen too or read are crazy or ate super conservative. The stuff I read said Rainey had upside unlike the other guy who is more of a FB anyway. That along with the fact that Rainey still got work when James went down despite being on the team for 2 weeks as the 3rd RB said a lot.
I also have QBs avaiable so let me know.
