Week 6 is not the Jahvid Best week for pickups

It took a little longer to get back in the swing of things after returning from Oktoberfest. It was a helluva trip. Lots of beer. Lots of sausage. In fact, I think sausage is a food group in Germany. But on to this week’s pickups… I’d be careful not to put too much stock this…… Continue reading Week 6 is not the Jahvid Best week for pickups

Week 4 Pickups: The One With All the Vikings

I’m 0-3 in one league, and I can’t stand it. So I’ll be all over the wires this week. You stand to benefit from my helpful or misguided research. Obviously, we had an eventful weekend of football. Or whatever you call the sport the replacement refs are now calling for us. Unfortunately for us all,…… Continue reading Week 4 Pickups: The One With All the Vikings

Monday Night Football Golden Tainted by Replacement Refs, Twitter Explodes and NFL Players React

The theme of the night, Roger Goodell as Vince McMahon via Texans Talk

So this happened. In case you somehow haven’t heard already, the replacement refs blew the call at the end of Monday Night Football by awarding a touchdown to Golden Tate in place of a Green Bay interception. Even Jon Gruden’s disgusted. The play in question (or is it still in question?), courtesy of KSK: http://youtu.be/x-qiGyB6HzE…… Continue reading Monday Night Football Golden Tainted by Replacement Refs, Twitter Explodes and NFL Players React

Larry Fitzgerald looks hot, AS USH

via Meme Generator

http://youtu.be/iZ8Qb9qm7N4 There are two schools of thought around whether I was stupid or gutsy this weekend. Regardless, I was certainly LOFTY. On one side, you have the more traditional view that you should “never sit your studs,” a stance I’ve taken in the past. And the other side of the argument is the “play the…… Continue reading Larry Fitzgerald looks hot, AS USH

Why do you still own Matt Cassel?

Here’s some last-minute start and sit advice as you put lineups together for Week 3. Matt Ufford at SBNation takes some starting shots. Did he say Andy Dalton? http://youtu.be/ySmtwQslzlQ I do agree on Saints and Chiefs…and Matt Cassel. Why do you own Matt Cassel? And Cecil Lammey tells you why to sit Adrian Peterson. http://youtu.be/z27xwjfhLfY…… Continue reading Why do you still own Matt Cassel?

Time to drop Ronnie Brown, Fred Davis, and Braylon Edwards

http://youtu.be/12KFuhIyDyM I’d also add Isaiah Pead, Tim Tebow, and David Wilson (might wait until we see him play Thursday night) to the droppable list Cecil offers up unless you’re in a deeper league. If you need the spot for a more promising waiver wire pickup, don’t be afraid to let these guys walk this week.…… Continue reading Time to drop Ronnie Brown, Fred Davis, and Braylon Edwards

Unleash the Handcuffs: Andre Brown, Bilal Powell, Daryl Richardson are Week 3 Pickups

Week 2 brought the injuries, now didn’t it? I can’t say I enjoyed watching Steven Jackson sit through the second half…especially after he was doing so well before he sat down. Aaron Hernandez owners may still crying after seeing him go back to the locker room without putting any points on the board. Of all the…… Continue reading Unleash the Handcuffs: Andre Brown, Bilal Powell, Daryl Richardson are Week 3 Pickups

Monday Morning Therapy: Steven Jackson’s groin hates fantasy football

I’d like to try something a little different here at Fantasy Football Fools. I give you a lot of advice, good and bad, throughout the season, but what about all the anger management we have to endure? Injuries. Benchings. When your team leaves you hanging Sunday, there’s got to be some good way to vent.…… Continue reading Monday Morning Therapy: Steven Jackson’s groin hates fantasy football
