It’s been three weeks. Time to take a long hard look at your team and the “sleepers” you chose on draft day. If they haven’t woken up yet, chances are that they aren’t going to wake up anytime soon. On the waiver this week, there are several running backs to take a chance on, but…… Continue reading On the Wire in Week 4: LeGarrette Blount, Ryan Torain Headline Best of Waiver Wire Running Backs to Stash

Believe it or not: Austin Collie, Peyton Hillis, Lance Moore and More Top Scores from Week 3
Austin Collie, WR, Colts: 12 catches for 171 yards, 2 TDs Believe It: This was not the stat line Reggie Wayne owners wanted to see, but without Pierre Garcon, Peyton Manning locked onto Collie while Dallas Clark and Reggie Wayne got most of the attention from the Denver defense. I don’t expect Collie to get…… Continue reading Believe it or not: Austin Collie, Peyton Hillis, Lance Moore and More Top Scores from Week 3
Week 3 Quick Hot Hands, Cold Shoulders: Take a chance on Kyle Orton, Brandon Marshall, and Vick
No time for a full start/sit post this week, but if you’re struggling to make a call for you lineup this morning, I do have lots of wonderful links for you. Fantasy Football Librarian’s Consensus Start/Sit: When it comes to Brett Favre, I’m firmly in the “sit him” camp until he proves that he’s worth…… Continue reading Week 3 Quick Hot Hands, Cold Shoulders: Take a chance on Kyle Orton, Brandon Marshall, and Vick
The League S02E02: Rafi Vom. That’s a shot, right, “Bro-Lo El Cuñado”?
What goes up must come down. That’s a law of marriage. In this week’s episode of “The League,” titled “Bro-Lo El Cuñado,” the married gents try to score points with the wives while Rafi begins to run amok throughout the league’s inner circle. Lots of vomit in this one so let’s get started with two…… Continue reading The League S02E02: Rafi Vom. That’s a shot, right, “Bro-Lo El Cuñado”?
The League S02E01: What Happens in “Vegas Draft”
Yes. This season, in honor of fantasy football’s only sitcom…and really, fantasy football’s only TV show outside of ESPN, I’ve decided to recap each episode of “The League,” which comes on Thursday nights at 10:30 p.m. EST on FX, in case you missed the announcement. This recap for Episode 1 ran a bit behind because…… Continue reading The League S02E01: What Happens in “Vegas Draft”
Why Jahvid Best is the Best
With a name like Best, you should have known he was going to be good, but this video might also have helped clue you in on his talent. http://youtu.be/dl6M1jSZcto You can only blame yourself for not getting a piece of this guy in your own fantasy football draft. I’ve heard people compare him to Chris…… Continue reading Why Jahvid Best is the Best
Sorry, Kolb. Michael Vick starts in Philadelphia after all
Sometimes you draft poorly. I’m told it happens. You may end up with a worthless set of running backs — guys who got too old without letting you know that you should remove them from your draft board. Maybe you ended up with a horrible corps of wide receivers — the worst of the worst…… Continue reading Sorry, Kolb. Michael Vick starts in Philadelphia after all
On the Wire: Mark Clayton, Josh Freeman, and Jason Snelling top ones to grab for Week 3
With two weeks to gauge our free agent stock, we’re now more able to tell who’s rising to the top and who will be free agent fodder all season long. Here are a few frequently available players who caught my eye in the last two weeks. Josh Freeman, QB, Tampa Bay Buccaneers Wow. A quarterback…… Continue reading On the Wire: Mark Clayton, Josh Freeman, and Jason Snelling top ones to grab for Week 3
Believe it or not: Jahvid “THE” Best, Jason Snelling, LeSean McCoy, Jay Cutler and More Top Scorers from Week 2
This week was not a good week to bench Jay Cutler or Jahvid Best. I have Jay Cutler as my QB1 in two leagues, but I chose to bench him in one of the two to “play it safe” with Favre. I hate it when I play it safe. I hate it even more when…… Continue reading Believe it or not: Jahvid “THE” Best, Jason Snelling, LeSean McCoy, Jay Cutler and More Top Scorers from Week 2
Week 2 Hot Hands, Cold Shoulders: Bradshaw FTW, Bench Benson and Think Twice Before You Take Out the Cadillac
It’s that time again. Time to dust off the old lineups and see what you’ve got for Week 2. Lucky for us, we now have one week of games to look at and make judgment calls, but it’s still pretty hard to tell whether the Bucs and Chiefs are good…or whether the Browns and Chargers…… Continue reading Week 2 Hot Hands, Cold Shoulders: Bradshaw FTW, Bench Benson and Think Twice Before You Take Out the Cadillac
