The triumphant return of Thursday Night Football! I always thought the Thursday night games were stretching it. We already have college games on Tuesday and Thursday if you are really feigning — granted they aren’t the most interesting games, but there is a football on a green field with guys in helmets going after it.…… Continue reading Week 10 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders

Week 9 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
One of my fantasy football teams has done remarkably well through the first half of the season. After starting 5-0, I traded away some of my starters for underperforming stars that I believed would lead me to victory in the second half. As of this week, I have assembled what I would call the Pro…… Continue reading Week 9 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
Week 6 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
It’s about time some of the fantasy studs broke out this year. This week has some matchups to watch.

I wish I could have gotten this one edited sooner, but the rush of preseason football and real drafts took hold of me and delayed the posting. Next time,…… Continue reading Fantasy Football Fools’ 2008 Average Joe Mock Draft
Mocking a Mock Draft? Analyzing The Hazean’s Mock Draft
Last month, fellow fantasy football blogger The Hazean ran a two-round fantasy mock draft. (Round 1 and Round 2) I’m not sure if some divine power of good — or most likely evil — took over after he posted it, but through some supernatural intervention, he was inspired to ask me for some analysis. A…… Continue reading Mocking a Mock Draft? Analyzing The Hazean’s Mock Draft
Drafting Your Fantasy Running Backs: The Details to Consider in 2008
If breaking down the details for this year’s fantasy running backs doesn’t make you want to take LaDainian Tomlinson first overall in your re-draft league, I don’t know what will. Seriously, people. When you’re talking fantasy running backs, what separates the vets from the noobs is consideration of a few minor factors beyond how high-powered…… Continue reading Drafting Your Fantasy Running Backs: The Details to Consider in 2008
