Boy, this fantasy football is kind of humbling stuff eh?
I mean, I know Dex is the new kid on the block this year here at MoFo, but I know he's played it quite a bit. Petey (Beantown Champs) has played FFB for over a decade if I'm not mistaken. I'm not sure how long Seds has played it, but I know he's a huge football fan in general and knows his stuff. I've watched football since I was a baby, listen to the sports radio, read crap online. You name it.
What do we all have in common? We're all pretty terrible, for the most part. Bad luck? Maybe. I mean wow. Petey started off on fire at 2-0 and has now dropped 4 straight? Seriously? At least my team has been consistently under achieving and I almost know what to expect at this point. But Seds must be ready to put his foot through his screen on Sunday's trying to figure out what the hell is going on with his team. I'm looking at his roster right now and it is not a bad team.
Crazy effing game this...
And the best part? We're all only 2 games back! What a league.
For what its worth my picks were fair to middling last week at 4-3, which brings me up to 19-24 on the year. Slow going, but I hope to get back to respectability. I mean really, how long can this goofy game keep us all guessing?
Are we playing this week? What's happening? Is PW going to curse me by picking me this week?
Let's see...
PW's Odd Squad vs. His Own Ego
Talk about a team that has surprised you a bit and I think His Own Ego qualifies. He's gotten some key performances from several different players to drive his record up to 4-2. Sadly, he's been pretty quiet on Sundays. I think he's got the life stuff to attend to but he's still keeping track of his team. Yahoo has us as a pretty tight game with my boys as a slight underdog.
I actually like my chances this week. Call me crazy and I'll most likely be cussing up a storm (again) come Sunday.
My pick: Odd Squad... SHOCKER!!!
11 Angry Men vs. The No Name Gang
Boy, Yoder may have dodged a serious bullet by not having to face Johnson this week who's on a bye. He and Schuab look like they may have figured a few things out last week, but whatever, the game will still be played and the Angry Men need some big days from MJD and Welker to keep his nice streak going. He may very well get them too. No Name could surprise the Angry Men though, its not out of the realm of possibility with Flacco, Jennings and White on his team. Should be fun to keep tabs on this one.
My pick: The No Name Gang, upset special of the week!
The Replicants vs. The Tongo Express
Another close game and it may actually be close on the scoreboard when its all said and done. Tongo needs win to try to keep pace with the upper half of the league. Mikey needs a win to get one step closer to .500. Colston can't possibly go another week with crap numbers... can he?
My pick: The Replicants tell Tongo all about their Mother.
Sookie's Suckers vs Team Zissou
And yet another close game... sigh. I got nuthin'. Coin flip time...
My pick: Team Zissou, "He's got hydrogen psychosis, the crazy-eye!"
Teen Terrors vs. Beantown Champs
If ever there was a week to get the Terrors its this one when Reggie Wayne is on a bye. It seems right now that the Terrors are going to try to roll out Cutler, who may be dead by the end of this week if that terrible Chicago O-Line has anything to say about it. And she's also playing not one but two Seattle Seahawks. It could work, I guess. I have no idea what the Seahawks are going to look like week to week and neither does their coach.
My pick: Beantown gets of the shnide.
Flash vs. Dextruction
Wouldn't it be funny if Flashy won this week? Well, I think it would be sort of funny. Somehow I doubt that Dex would see any humor in it whatsoever.
My pick: Dextruction 3 in a row means Winning streak!!!
Hired Goons vs. GWOW
Another close one provided that GWOW switches out his defense, which he probably will. If not then maybe the Badger has an easier road to get right into the thick of things. Even if he does I still really like Badgers chances this week.
My pick: Hired Goons... Boom!
Alright then, here we go again! Are you ready?
