“The computer, an extension of the human intellect.  The ENCOM511, centre of the most calculating intelligence on earth, programmed by Master Control to survive by all means.  Soon, the ultimate tool will become the ultimate enemy.”  I didn’t start my summary with a quote from the 1982 sci-fi blockbuster Tron as an analogy depicting me […]

So here’s my final go in another Expert League. Scott Pianowski must really like my money the way I play this game as it’s the second league I’ll be in with hm. I covered the first one here. I drafted before the Baseball All-Star break then. For the most part, this league is similar in set up except that it’s a 12 teamer rather than a 14. I do also think there are some similar owners but, hey, that would require me to pay attention to other owners. Neverthewho, here’s results for my last draft for 2013 Fantasy Football…

Woooooo!  The Razzball Writer’s League.  I’m excited, but I’d be even more excited if Tehol’s team butt fumbles his way to a 3-11 record.  I mean who starts their gloating in the 2012 recap with a Lady Gaga quote?

Well through the deal of the dice, or shake of the cards, or something like that, I randomized my way into a first pick (see Draft Results here) and didn’t pull anything crazy and grabbed AP.  Sorry Sky’s rankings!  Although I do like Doug Martin 2.  But after that, it was a tough draft being the swing-around and pounding two beers between picks.  Just like Sky said in his Writer’s League Recap, this is probably my least favorite team I’ve fielded (12-team PPR, same format as RCL Leagues – speaking of start an RCL League today!):

They say good things come in pairs and for the most part they’re right. Who’s this ‘they’ you keep talking about? You wouldn’t know them, it’s the Royal They, Imaginary Reader. So you’re just making another long-winded intro about nothing then. Yes, and you’re extending. Duly noted, please proceed. As I was saying, good things come in pairs is the idiom which I can agree with most times. I mean, for the expecting family who wants to have at least two kids, maybe they start out with twins? And even if they don’t, there’s always the black market, right? Woah, wait I guess we shouldn’t talk about how I’m able to spend all my time righting about fantasy sports…moving on! There’s socks, shoes, pants, breasts, doublemint gum, double rainbows…the list of frivolous things that totally ruin the meaning of the phrase goes on. But you know what isn’t good in pairs? Injuries. Specifically the broke bone variety. After being sidelined last year with the same ailment, Andre Brown yet again with a broken left leg and I get to mark him as the second casualty to my pre-baseball All-Star break auction draft team. Yeah, the one with roster limits that were, ahem, added AFTER we drafted. I’m farting in your general direction, Pianowski. Nevertheless, Brown was supposed to be the 3rd down back for short yardage, namely the goal line. Well, that’s not happening for 4-6 weeks. And when he gets back? Who knows who’ll take his role on the Giants. Maybe that role won’t be needed anymore. In any event, for those who’ve drafted I hope you have an IR slot that’s not already filled by Percy or Le’Veon or…well, you get the point. It’s a rough sport these guys play. With any luck, we’ve all still got our goal line back for the Giants once his leg has mended…again. In other 2013 Fantasy Football news…

Greetings all! Tis I, Tehol Beddict, writers league defending champion, international male model and fantasy guru. I come to you today to speak of what will be an eventual champion fantasy football roster. Thus far I’ve never guaranteed a title and didn’t end up victorious. This year will be no different. I’m still not clear if this is a ppr league or not but based on my roster it’s truly not going to matter either way. Take heed.

My final installment of IDP advice before Week 1 Rankings will be the briefest. Simply put, DBs are the least predictable IDP position, and no matter what strategy you employ, you’ll likely see weeks with huge point totals, and weeks of near shut-outs. Even the top players aren’t models of consistency (Morgan Burnett had a […]

While I’m going for the cross-promotion in my team name (Bet the Farm! Coming Soon to a Razzball near you!) , maybe I should go with something like Geriatrics’ Boulevard since Yahoo has made it very clear in my report card that this is the oldest team in the league. I’m a sucker for proven commodities, what can I say? Would you rather spend a night with Jennifer Aniston or Miley Cyrus? What’s new and shiny is not always better. Especially in fantasy football. Sure, it would be nice to snag a Giovanni Bernard, or a Tavon Austin, but I would rather know that the players on my team have done it before. Speaking of which, here is said team:

Back by popular demand I bring you the first two rounds factor. And by ‘popular’ I mean ‘I’ve never typed this before’ and by ‘demand’ I mean ‘two people commented about how to handle the first two rounds on my Preseason-palooza post last week and how it could dictate the rest of your draft and here’s me humbling obliging’. See how much less text you have to deal with when I say ‘popular demand’? You’re welcome. The reality is how you spend your first two picks has a domino effect on the rest of your draft. It makes guys who were sleepers or steals worthless pickups or dire needs depending on how you start this silly little game of ours. So to try and put out as many articles as possible assist you in your drafting journey, I’m here to give you the lowdown on how to handle the rounds beyond depending on what you did for the first two. So here’s my draft strategy for said sitch for 2013 Fantasy Football…but wait, there’s more! Ok, not really. Just me kindly reminding you that we have this whole Razzball Commenter Leagues thing going on. Nothing big, really, just a way for you to winner a killer Razzball jump suit and to show everyone on Razzball how awesometastic you are. No bigs. Oh you’re interested?
