Ryan Grant is D – U – N. That spells, no longer available to score fake points for your fake football team. Enter BJax. Yes, the -Jax nickname is old and cliched and all that, but I like how it sounds. BJax, Beej? BJ Honeycutt? Dunno, but I do know you have to do what […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I’ve torn into “Coach” Todd Haley more than once from my bully pulpit, but there’s always room for more tearing. Thomas Jones carried the ball 11 times for a whopping 39 yards while Jamaal Charles also carried the ball 11 times, but for 92 yards and a touchdown. You sir, yes you Mr. Haley, are […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?I am officially bloated on football. And for dessert we get more football! Hopefully I’ll have digested by then. For those of you in the Weekly Contest the top QB/RB/WR so far have been Peyton Manning/Arian Foster/Hakeem Nicks. I haven’t gone through our entrants, but I know there were quite a few Chris Johnson/Peyton Mannings […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Week 1 is always full of breakout receivers. Some keep it up, most crap out. But, there are also some guys who you own that you won’t be able to stand on your team anymore. I can understand that. It’s cleansing to boot them to the curb. Here are a few guys that might possibly […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It is finally here. The day we have waited for so impatiently. It is football day. All is right with the world. Goose Island IPA, Gigio’s Pizza, a mix of pregame shows, pay homage to the Lombardi and Halas, Red Zone, and lots of couch butt groove time. There is still time to join our […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?We had a nice little taste of football on Thursday, but it only made us hungrier! One game can give us football, but many games at the same time gives us fantasy football! Here are a few tidbits of fantasy news. The news continues to be bad for Beanie Wells. If he plays at all, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Fantasy football leagues that use individual defensive players (IDPs) add a new level of depth to your typical league. While using IDPs can be fun, it also means keeping track of an extra three or more players each week. An IDP will normally score around two to six points per week for your fantasy team, […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?Each week I’ll be participating in FanDuel.com’s Fantasy Football Championship league, which is open to everyone. You get to set a different line-up each week, so I’m going to post it here. We get 60,000 to spend on a team. Here is the team I came up with. QB Jay Cutler (CHI v DET) — […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?It wasn’t the shootout many were expecting, which is alway bad news for us faux footballers. Sean Payton is a good coach, just not a fantasy coach. Brad Childress isn’t really that good of a coach and is best suited to win Major Dad lookalike contests. The main thing we should learn from this game […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?Standard fantasy article intro/disclaimer: Just because a player is listed as a “Start” doesn’t mean you should necessarily play them over a player listed as a “Sit”. Sit/Start is written to supplement the weekly rankings (and to undermine Doc’s fantasy expertness by sort of disagreeing with him occasionally!), so that noteworthy players aren’t just lost […]
Please, blog, may I have some more?This brings to a close our weekly rankings for this, the first week of the National Football League. As I write this we are under 24 hours until the season opener commences. Yes, we will be favred to death, but it’s football! Real football!! Keep those start/sit questions coming in the comments. If you pose […]
