Bet the Farm: Gambling on NFL Week Six
October 13, 2012 | 2012 Fantasy Football, Bet The Farm | 7 Commentsby: Josh Carey
Bet the Farm is Razzball’s weekly wagering column. Josh Carey and Zorboss compete against your picks in the comments. The rules?
– You start off with $1,000 (and can start playing along in the comments any time you want – even now)
– Every bet must be an increment of $10 up to your full bankroll ($1,000 or maybe more)
– You can bet on the over/under or spread for any NFL game (Yahoo Sports’ Odds page is a good place to pick your lines)
– Win, add $9 to your total for every $10 bet (you have to beat the rake). Please, blog, may I have some more?

Week Six Razzball FanDuel Tournament

Quick. Go open up your change drawer. Or dig into your couch. Or go look under the seats in your car. What you’re looking for is 100 cents, one measly American dollar. Why? Because that is all it takes to enter this week’s Razzball FanDuel Tournament (just click that link). Please, blog, may I have some more?
I’m confused, I tell you. Flat out, straight up consternated. While everyone out there said Chris Johnson was done, I believed. Then he underperformed vs the Lions who gave up 44 points. Then he overperformed vs a Houston defense that normally doesn’t give up much on the ground. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Hard Targets: Chris “Micro” Johnson Comes Up Limp Yet Again

Right out the gate, please allow me to apologize for the Jerome Simpson hype. I’d heard nothing but great things out of the Vikings camp from my inside sources and he looked fantastic in his first contest back from suspension. I obviously had no clue the man had spina bifida.

To be honest, I have a lot of QBs I could make a lead for this little weekly ranking ditty. I just happened to highlight Christian Ponder because his name is easy to pun with. Some take the high road, others take the low road, meanwhile I just wanna set things to cruise down easy street sometimes. Please, blog, may I have some more?
For this week’s podcast, hosts Nick Capozzi and JB Gilpin discuss RGIII‘s concussion, Andrew Luck‘s ascension into fantasy prominence, and David Wilson‘s ability to juke.
Nick and JB then go over JB’s “Up” and “Down” picks for week 6. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Week 6 Rush Defense: What can (another) Brown do for You?
October 10, 2012 | 2012 Fantasy Football, Rush & Pass Strategy | 35 Commentsby: Loudon
Bench Arian Foster this week.
Just kidding. Can you imagine?  Foster’s a solid play even when he’s on bye. At least he’d be a better play than DeAngelo Williams was last week. Thankfully Foster’s not on bye this week so he’s obviously starting for every fantasy team that’s fortunate enough to own him. Please, blog, may I have some more?
Ah, the fickle world of fantasy football. Some would say it’s a man’s world but those some have now passed on and have also said this. Instead, I’ll say it’s a world of ‘what have you done for me lately’. Please, blog, may I have some more?
