Pancharros is equal to Dan's season

Went to Pacharros today for lunch. It was actually the first time I been to one but I knew it was like a Qdoba. There is a basic expectation that you have about the food when you walk into on of these restaurants. Most of them are essentially the same, well except Moe's gives you free chips with everything, like a lot of chips more than I think I would ever reasonable eat in one sitting and everyone else makes you pay for chips. In a way these restaurants are like fantasy football. You know when the season starts there are going to be certain moments that happen ever year, the close loses because you played the wrong guy, the close win when a guy scores 3 TDs. Your fantasy kicker hitting a 20 point game. That pick you feel extremely confident about at the draft. These moments are like the rice and beans at these places. For the full metaphor your top pick would probably be the meat and making moves in season, either trading or picking guys up the guac. Now like fantasy football you can seemingly make all the right decisions and even not cheap out and pay extra for guac (trading a 4 and 9th for RB mid season) and still end up with something just does not taste right because you started completely wrong by walking into Pancharros instead of Qdoba, or Moe's or Chipotle.

Dan's season was Pancharros, it had so must promise and there was basic assumption of what the experience would look like. That assumption that he would not be the worst team two years in a row was correct but he gave it a run for it at the end of the season. Throughout the year I said Alex had a bipolar season based on the fact Tyreke Hill and Cam either had great weeks or bad weeks, no consistency. Well Dan's team was similar except he would normally score either in the high 60s or low 70s or 95-115 points. The 80-95 range did not existed for Dan. The roller coaster of season with injuries left and right had him tied for the division lead though late in the season. Seeing that Dalvin Cook was likely to never actually play a whole game without and injury and that Frank Gore is actually a fossil, he made the trade to acquire James Connors, at the time the number 2 back in fantasy. Unfortunately for Dan Connors was about to twist an ankle and not play much the rest of the season, but hey that was a really good move you made there. Sensing opportunity and a surplus of receivers he moved Diggs to acquire Jack Doyle, Andrew Luck's favorite TE. Looking at the season Ebron was having and the fact Doyle out targeted Ebron in the two weeks since Dolye's return from injury this looked filling the one gap that remained in his roster. Doyle would suffer a season ending injury a few weeks after the trade. 

Despite all this Dan went into the last week of the regular season with a chance to make the playoffs if he could pull off a victory over division rival Ryan Sanford  and he fell flat on his face. Playoffs on the line and he did absolutely. Odell ran his mouth that week about how the giants were going to play spoiler for some team well they spoiled Dan's fantasy season as OBJ had a perfectly average 14 point game when Dan needed a supernova of a game.

The Raffle playoffs was a disaster for Dan as both OBJ and Connors refused to play week after week with injuries and the question was would Dan ever score over 70 points again. Well fortunately for Dan he was able to pick up Jamal Williams, who had a huge week in week 16 that propelled Dan to the victory over Alex .

I think the lesson learned today is Pancharros bad and makes me sick thinking about kind of like the injury luck Dan had this season
