The playoffs have officially arrived in most leagues while some of you might have one week left before fantasy postseason glory begins. I personally am involved in both scenarios. With my #2 seed officially locked up (and the high point total for the regular season…thank you), I am in playoff mode. Being in a 2-QB [...]
For the first time in years, I have secured a playoff spot in one of my longest running football leagues. Please hold your applause. In the SoB football league, I have been on the short end of the stick all season. Despite being top five in points, I am in 10th place. The most recent [...]
Every season we see a first round bust in fantasy football leagues. I think we are well on our way to giving that award to San Diego rookie Ryan Mathews. It just goes to show that just because you are replacing one of the best running backs in NFL history, it doesn’t mean you will [...]
You know what’s funny? In countless leagues, Michael Vick went undrafted. Hell, he wasn’t taken in the SoB football league. Even if Kevin Kolb missed playing time, we couldn’t have possibly expected Vick to put up these kind of numbers. He’s gone from most exciting QB to watch, to highest paid QB of all time, to [...]
It has always been a personal policy of mine to be 100% honest with the readers. This week’s report will be short (like Brett Favre’s penis…are we still doing these jokes?) because as of 5:09pm today, I own Call of Duty: Black Ops. So yes, I need to dedicate a good portion of my night [...]
I hope none of you were like me and picked the Vikings and Cowboys to make the playoffs before the start of the season. Well, nobody could have predicted such a lackluster offensive effort from Dallas and nobody could have seen a Brett Favre penis scandal coming. Expect the unexpected I suppose. How long can [...]
Want to talk about bad luck? In the SoB football league, I have the most point out of the 12 teams. Good news, right? Not in this case. Nope, thanks to several strings of unfortunate matchups, I am stuck in 10th place. This really just drives the point home that this can be a game [...]
Speaking of Brett Favre’s penis… Forget it, the well has dried up on that story. No, this past week in football has been highlighted by helmet-to-helmet hits. With three fines being dished out and very real threats of suspensions in the future, the fantasy world has been left scrambling for DeSean Jackson replacements. Speaking of [...]
I know what you’re thinking. Am I going to make any “Brett Favre penis jokes?” The answer is no. I’m sorry, but I think I am a little above that kind of low brow humor. Not that much above it, but still, I like to maintain a certain level of class around here. Although, if you [...]
As I write this, I am being distracted by ESPN’s “30 for 30: Four Days in October”, so excuse me if I seem unfocused. I assure you, I am at full attention to bring you the news from this past week. We here in New England are still celebrating a 41-14 anihilation of Miami, too bad you [...]
And I’m back after a one week hiatus. I know we all hate hearing the old saying of “every point counts”. Now, I will tell you that I recently lived it. This past week, I lost both of my matchups in my two leagues by a combined 2.5 points! Pretty heartbreaking. I mean, I fully expected [...]
So, it has come to this. One more week of action before we are forced to turn our attention to football, basketball, and hockey. I am currently holding a steady lead in my championship matchup. If victorious, it would be my first title since 2007, so that is exciting for me. If you’re in a [...]
Sound the horns and drop the balloons, baby. It’s championship time! These next two weeks will decide your place amongst the fantasy gods. Second place is not an option as you will claw your way through your matchup and end up on top of the mountain where you will claim your prize and title of [...]
Week 1 is in the books. There were plenty of upsets and some significant injuries. But more importantly, this Tuesday in history marks the launch of Halo: Reach for the Xbox 360. I have my copy and will be starting my epic journey this evening. As for football, well, Week 1 is officially old news, so [...]
In the SoB baseball league, we are down to just four teams. I am fortunate enough to have made it this far, but I am now facing the #1 seed, so we will see how that goes down. I hope most of you who find this are still on your quest for glory. But hey, [...]
