Which is the Stronger Law of Nature?

I threw caution to the wind on Sunday and put two laws of nature in conflict with each other. So, which law of nature is the strongest? Is it:

Players that are on Steve's fantasy football team do cruddy.

or

If Steve makes a prediction on his blog, it will be proven publicly wrong.

Let's find out.

Here are the players I had on my team this past weekend, followed by the player's average fantasy points per game on the season.
QB - Matt Schaub - 350
QB - Aaron Rodgers - 389
RB - Maurice Jones-Drew - 248
RB - Chris Johnson - 275
RB - Cedric Benson - 260
WR - Mario Manningham - 181
WR - Steve Smith (NY) - 255
WR - Vincent Jackson - 227
TE - Brent Celek - 195
D - Philadelphia Eagles - 238
K - David Akers - 108

And here is how my players did this week:
QB - Matt Schaub - 561 points - 211 points above average
QB - Aaron Rodgers - 390 points - 1 point above average
RB - Maurice Jones-Drew - 501 points - 253 points above average
RB - Chris Johnson - 256 points - 19 points below average
RB - Cedric Benson - 154 points - 106 points below average
WR - Mario Manningham - 168 points - 13 points below average
WR - Steve Smith (NY) - 96 points - 159 points below average
WR - Vincent Jackson - 160 points - 67 points below average
TE - Brent Celek - 158 points - 37 points below average
D - Philadelphia Eagles - 200 points - 38 below average
K - David Akers - 180 points - 72 above average

So, overall my players totaled a collective 98 points above their season averages. However, seven of the eleven scored below their season average. This makes my prediction sort of right and sort of wrong, which makes my prediction that I would be proven wrong sort of right and sort of wrong too. Figures.

Oh, and while I gathered a respectable 2,824 points this week. They guy in first place in my league tallied 3,606 points for the week. Nice.
