This Kevin Smith is not Too Fat to Fly in Week 12 Pickups

I can’t be certain that I covered all of this week’s best waiver wire grabs because, to be honest, after Adrian Peterson went down and rode out of the stadium on a cart, I went into shock and then into a hysterical state from which I am only now emerging. Is Twilight still a thing?…… Continue reading This Kevin Smith is not Too Fat to Fly in Week 12 Pickups

Moore to live for in Week 11 Pickups

It’s getting to be that time. The fantasy playoffs are near. Records are shaking out. If you’re set to make a deep playoff run, you should be reshaping your team to play it’s best fantasy football in Weeks 14-16. Of course, that’s assuming you’re all playing championship games in Week 16, which is the only…… Continue reading Moore to live for in Week 11 Pickups

The Tashard Choice Is Yours in Week 10 Pickups

I have a lot of fantasy football to catch up on since I entered the married world, including several episodes of The League to clean off the DVR, but I’ll get right to it this week. When it comes to free agents, I was lucky in that no real breakout candidates emerged in my absence.…… Continue reading The Tashard Choice Is Yours in Week 10 Pickups

Bye Week. No, really, we’re taking a bye week.

We’re taking a bye week (or two) here at Fantasy Football Fools as I go on IR to have a ball and chain attached. That’s right. I’m getting married this weekend. So we’re taking a two-week “bye week” while I’m getting hitched and honeymooning. I won’t have access to the Internet or Twitter, but hopefully,…… Continue reading Bye Week. No, really, we’re taking a bye week.

Thank you Murray much, Week 7 Pickups

If you were hurting for a tight end, Week 7 is the week to snatch one up off the waiver wire. Don’t sleep on these options. Tight End Party FRED DAVIS (Redskins) With Chris Cooley shattering his finger (ouch) on Sunday, Davis stands to see a lot more passes his way in this Redskins’ offense.…… Continue reading Thank you Murray much, Week 7 Pickups

The League S03E02: The Sukkah never trades

Trades. Every league wants trades. They keep the league competitive and promote inspired conversation between league members. But it’s very difficult to maintain the culture that allows for them within a league because they are the most dangerous version of in-season gambling. Play a trade well…and you’ll have the envy and hatred of the rest…… Continue reading The League S03E02: The Sukkah never trades

Tim Tebowing is half the Battle in the Week 6 Pickups

The big names are Tim Tebow and Jackie Battle this week, but it’s really all about Tebow. He was a stud when he got the chance to start last season. Time for him to do it again. http://youtu.be/pele5vptVgc This week’s pickups are listed in the order I’d try to acquire them. Feel free to ask…… Continue reading Tim Tebowing is half the Battle in the Week 6 Pickups

The League S03E01: The Lockout with your Dirty Randy out

All this season, just like last season, I’ll be recapping episodes of FX’s The League, a tribute to fantasy football culture in sitcom form. Stop by every Friday to discuss the highlights of each episode and commemorate the best trash talk and one-liners. Bang-bang! What’s the hang? What better way to begin a season of The…… Continue reading The League S03E01: The Lockout with your Dirty Randy out

Sorry to Torain on your Week 5 waivers parade

Another week down in the NFL season, another crop of new running backs to go after. I’ll run these free agents down in the order I’d target them on the Week 5 waiver wire. Hope the bye weeks treat you kindly these next few weeks. RUNNING BACKS Ryan Torain (Redskins) He’s the most lucrative pickup…… Continue reading Sorry to Torain on your Week 5 waivers parade
