There was actually a mock draft that I participated in last week besides the one that I let the ESPN autodraft bot destroy by filling the bench with quarterbacks. The fine young hair models from Fantasy Football Writers with Hair put together a 10-team, 16-round mock draft with a few of the Fanhouse crew, reps…… Continue reading Hair Model Mock Draft 2009: Tweaking the System

Brady’s Back: Now Where Should I Draft Him?
Tom Brady’s Week 1 knee injury in 2008 caused more than one owner in the world of fantasy football to collapse in front of their TV in tears before they ever even learned of Matt Cassel’s existence. It was just the kind of nightmare that fantasy owners fear when they assemble their team at the…… Continue reading Brady’s Back: Now Where Should I Draft Him?
Week 17 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders: Championship Edition?
First of all, why are you guys still having your championship in Week 17? That’s like playing a game of chess for hours only to bring in toddlers to play out the final three moves. Why would you do that? And where did you get chess-playing toddlers? This week, I absolutely love everyone involved with…… Continue reading Week 17 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders: Championship Edition?
Foolish Thoughts on Week 16: How much do you hate DeAngelo Williams?
Seriously, how much do you hate DeAngelo Williams right now? Many a game was won or lost off the play of DeAngelo Williams Sunday night. While I thought he’d keep rolling as he has been the past several weeks, I didn’t think he’d get more than two touchdowns, and I never dreamed that he would…… Continue reading Foolish Thoughts on Week 16: How much do you hate DeAngelo Williams?

At this point, you should be starting your studs.

In the Cowboy game tonight, I like Tony Romo and the Cowboys…… Continue reading Week 16 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders: Championship Edition
Foolish Thoughts on Week 15: I’m all out of love, so lost without you
It was hard to bring my thoughts together between fits of extreme sobbing after watching all the football games in a very serious, totally masculine way this weekend. Yes, I lost at Nick’s hands this week, one game away from the championship … in a game where I was “projected” to win by 50 points.…… Continue reading Foolish Thoughts on Week 15: I’m all out of love, so lost without you
Week 14 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
You’re obviously starting your studs at this point. For many of you, it’s the playoffs. For others, it’s the last week before the playoffs (and you should hate that your championship game is in Week 17, where anything goes). This week, whether you are in the playoffs are about to be, is a critical one.…… Continue reading Week 14 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
A Fool and His Money in Week 14
Note from Jacob: Somehow, after a rager of a game of Monopoly — yes, we are five years old — and a weekend of fantasy football talk, we got Chadam to disagree with Nick on some of this week’s picks. Oakland Raiders at San Diego Chargers Fools Take: CHARGERS (-9) over Raiders Nick says: I…… Continue reading A Fool and His Money in Week 14
Week 13 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders
A lot of the action already went down on Thursday, but there are still a few sneaky starts and player concerns this week. Here are a few players that might help or hurt you in staking your claim for a playoff spot on this fine Sunday.

Foolish Thoughts on Week 12: What happened to my weekend
As you might have guessed, my weekend didn’t quite go as planned. You see, I got a new day job in Dallas — and no, it’s not as backup quarterback for the Cowboys despite the fact that Brad Johnson didn’t put up much of a fight. If you’d rather skip the story and get straight…… Continue reading Foolish Thoughts on Week 12: What happened to my weekend
