Let’s remind ourselves of the formula:
Sleeper Rating = Amount of Talent (Individual + Team Support) + Opportunity
Let the bye weeks begin! This is where we start to separate the men/women from the boys/girls. Depth finally starts to pay off or punish depending on how savvy you’ve been. Again all the players I’m going to talk about here I look at within a “buy low” framework.

Wide Receivers
Johnny Knox: In the first 3 weeks his targets have gone 4, 10, 3. Hmmm, not the consistency you want to see. Hester isn’t going anywhere and Bennett is a possession receiver.

The men on the wire jump off tonight. Get out your big, soft, trampoliney things with the bright red bullseyes on them.
Glen Coffee: I know this is a no-brainer, but just in case you were on the fence or lost your brain in some kind of farming accident, pick him up if you still can. Gore is out for 3 weeks and even though Coffee hasn’t looked great the Niners are a run first team and Coffee will be the main back.

Eradicator: “Dude, it’s OVER!”
Me: “What are you talking about? What’s over?”
Eradicator: “Everything men have been talking about for centuries; it’s all been washed away by keystrokes. This woman wrote abook about how guys act toward girls and is telling them to dump their man if he doesn’t put her first all the time.

No this isn’t a chain letter or cheesy personality test that someone dumps on you on Facebook. Actually it sort of is the latter. There is a lot of psychology involved in Fantasy Football and the sooner we acknowledge it and start paying attention the better.

I don’t love or hate Brett Favre. I am glad he is around so I can add words and phrases like osteoporosis, One A Day Men’s 50+ Advantage, Extenze, etc to my posts, but watching him throw that game winner to Greg Lewis was just awesome. Will he put up more games like that?

Lots of football reporters, analysts, and bloggers like to wait till Monday or Tuesday morning to talk about what they saw, rate their teams’ performance, and to criticize the “poor” coaching decisions made on Sunday. But me? I like to do it before it even happens.

It’s Football Friday here at Razzball headquarters. I just saw Grey drinking a daiquiri he received in the mail from a loyal reader who is on the verge of winning his baseball league. He is saying something, he wants to thank everyone for, wait, he’s slurring his words, thank everyone for, uh, oh, he just passed out. Anyway, here is a run down of Sunday’s games in the National Football League, enjoy!

I went to college in a small town with only a few bars. In small college towns there is always the designated “hook up bar” where young men and women flock to satisfy their carnal urges. Every weekend inaudible drunkenness and debauchery hang as a thick cloud, facilitating coitus (sometimes on the premises).

The Fantasy Football Knights of the Roundtable have gathered here to help conquer the evil questions that plague the realm of Fantasy Footballia. Below you will find the metaphorical swords to slay your opponents, metaphorically.
Sleepers:
Eli Manning, New York Giants
The Buccaneers have given up 282 yards per game through the air and a league high 10 yards per reception. They are also picking defensive backs off the street which only works some of the time. I am not a fan of Eli, especially in fantasy, but sometimes the numbers just are too obvious. Little bro is 5th in the league in yardage and has found a new favorite target in Mario Manningham.
