Fantasy Bad Beats: When a smart real-life play breaks your heart

Did you suffer a crushing loss in Week 6, by way of a last-second defeat or a blowout?

Well, we here at Yahoo Fantasy are here for you, yet again, and always. We want to know all about it (so we can laugh at you) so we can help you get through it. Judge Andy Behrens can assist you through these troubled times, in Week 6 and every week of the fantasy football season.

Speaking of Week 6, shouts to all the fantasy gamers who replied to our Bad Beats tweet with just one word: Lions.

Can’t blame ya’ll — that was a terrible, referee-aided loss that the Lions had to suffer through. But back to the fantasy Ls. Week 6’s terrible Bad Beat comes courtesy of a gamer named Nick, who suffered an L in no small part due to the unfortunate outings of Jared Goff, Cooper Kupp, Demarcus Robinson — you get the idea. But he still had a chance to win, thanks to the exceptional Monday Night performance of Jamaal Williams — until Williams did ... well, you know. Hey, we’ve seen it before and probably will see it again; a player makes a smart football move, but one that really, really hurts in fantasy!

This season, “Fantasy Bad Beats” will feature a new segment called “Blowout of the Week,” and in Week 6, a gamer with a burner Twitter account (???) beat his opponent by over 100 points, and according to him in the video above, his opponent deserved it!
