I’ve coined a new fantasy football term this season: “getting Shonn Greened.” Sadly, it’s to describe the miserable performance of my own fantasy team. I drafted well, according to most rankings, guides, and general opinion, but my team manages, time and time again, to play down to my opponent. They underwhelm when everyone expects them…… Continue reading Week 9 Pickups coming up Cecil Shorts

5 Player Moves the NFL Owes Fantasy Football (And Me)
The first few days of NFL free agency are like sitting in Santa’s lap. You can ask for anything you want with the assumption that you’ll get it. And I do that every year. Ask for things in free agency, that is. Not sit in Santa’s lap. Since the NFL left us cold and alone…… Continue reading 5 Player Moves the NFL Owes Fantasy Football (And Me)
Top 15 Fantasy Football Storylines You Missed Since the Super Bowl
Congratulations on escaping from that rock you’ve been trapped under for all those long months since the Super Bowl. Hopefully, you weren’t trapped in this thing. After you get a good, warm meal inside of you, I’m sure you’ll be wondering what happened in the world since you departed.

Why the Colts Won’t Win the Super Bowl
I usually don’t write these kinds of posts, the ones that look at just one particular team’s chances in the NFL playoffs, but considering the fantasy season is winding to a close, I felt compelled to share my take on one of this week’s big storylines. In the midst of a 15-10 third quarter with…… Continue reading Why the Colts Won’t Win the Super Bowl
Ted Ginn: This is why you can’t have nice things
As if you needed a two-minute explanation of why you should never trust Ted Ginn Jr. as a fantasy football wideout, here you are. Please cover the eyes of any young children in the room. http://youtu.be/ZYSxJgjjJFc via Pro Football Talk Yeah, it’s really that bad. Do not draft, people. Do not draft. Ginn’s own hands…… Continue reading Ted Ginn: This is why you can’t have nice things
Bye, Bye Ronnie Brown: Foot injury takes RB to IR
The Miami Dolphins have placed Ronnie Brown on IR with a foot injury to end his season. Adam Schefter filed the story this afternoon, and ESPN now has the official word. Apparently, his foot injury was much more serious than we all feared. What does this mean for the Miami Wildcat? “Who knows? May not even…… Continue reading Bye, Bye Ronnie Brown: Foot injury takes RB to IR
Foolish Thoughts: Marc Bulger and Sunday Night Sadness
Baseball stole our Sunday Night Football. How is that fair? Give it back, World Series. I demand it. I’m fine with baseball as long as I don’t have to sit through an entire game. In my opinion, it should be played in highlight form, jumping to the major parts and leaving out all the rest.…… Continue reading Foolish Thoughts: Marc Bulger and Sunday Night Sadness
Week 7 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders: LenWhale fall down, go boom
Patrick Crayton just straight up offended me by complaining that he wasn’t told that he was being replaced in the starting lineup. Seriously? But seriously? But seriously? I guess he was the last to know. I knew two weeks ago. Let’s just drop the act, Crayton. You saw Miles Austin have the best day of…… Continue reading Week 7 Hot Hands and Cold Shoulders: LenWhale fall down, go boom
On the Wire: Week 6 Pickups, Sleepers and Bye Week Saviors
He did it. I can’t believe he did it. Braylon Edwards, of stone hands fame, caught almost everything that came his way in his debut with the Jets on Monday night. It’s possible to argue that he was robbed of a second touchdown on the night when a circus catch down the sideline got reviewed…… Continue reading On the Wire: Week 6 Pickups, Sleepers and Bye Week Saviors
Foolish Thoughts: The Brady Bench, Law of Averages and Josh Johnson
Since graduating college, I’ve occasionally had a dream that I was still taking finals. In the dream, I wake up and realize that I have a final that very day, but it’s for a class that I didn’t know I was taking and haven’t attended even one day that semester. Right about the time that…… Continue reading Foolish Thoughts: The Brady Bench, Law of Averages and Josh Johnson
