You get what you pay for.



"wah, wah, wah, all my running backs are hurt"

I love it. Absolutely, love it.

You should have never drafted any of these turds in the 1st place.

Turd #1: Turner (drafted 0 times), way overrated as a top5 pick. Yes, he was starting to turn it on in the two games before he got hurt, but is he in the same class as an All Day AP, MJD, or even a Ray Rice? No

Turd#2: Westbrook (drafted 1 time - yeah so what I took a flyer on him once in round3) Always a good player and always hurt, you knew as soon as you clicked that draft button he was heading to the injury report. That's why I drafted Shady McCoy on 26 of 47 of my teams.

Turd#3: Benson (drafted 0 times) Ok, I admit Cedric is one of the few guys I felt I missed the boat on. I saw every game he played in Chicago, and he never, ever ran in Chicago like he was running prior to the injury. Reportedly, Bernard Scott (drafted 4 times) had a great camp and had a shot to supplant him. Now Marvin Lewis is taking a good amount of heat for overusing Benson, and with the way Scott has been running this will be a 70-30 timeshare when Benson returns. Don't expect any more 35+ carry old school Larry Johnson performances.

Turd#4: Big Larry (drafted 0 times) Did you really think this turd who has done nothing in 2 years was going to get rejuvenated and have a comeback season. On a bad KC team, with a bad Matt Cassell leading the charge?


If you're having RB problems I don't feel bad for you son, I got 99 problems but RB depth ain't one.

Don't call it a comeback!



Sixth of fourteen in my personal power rankings but 1st in my heart, my flagship Juggernaut team has come roaring back after starting 3-7 to finish the regular season 11-7 and make this week's championship game.

Thinking I got three first round talents in Brees, S-Jax, & Westbrook I felt great about this team's chances. Starting slow at 3-7 I was pretty bummed about this team knowing the core was strong and it had a good chance to compete.

Even with 46 other teams in various leagues and contests I NEVER GAVE UP.

Seeing a deficiency in my WR3 slot I bid a big chunk of my FA $ money on Kevin Walter. My $34 bid won Walter with someone bidding $31 for him.

What seemed like a bone head move two weeks ago could prove to be the most important move I made. With O Daniels out for the season and Houston's upcoming schedule (6/6 likely in good weather) Walter is lined up for a big second half:

11 TEN @HOU
12 IND @HOU
13 HOU @JAC
14 SEA @HOU
15 HOU @STL
16 HOU @MIA

I think I have the ingredients to cook up something special for the play-offs.

2 Elite QBs in Brees & J-Cut
2 Work Horse RBs in S-Jax and Mendy, Westbrook, McCoy and Donald Brown off the bench
#1 overall WR in V-Jax, the most consistent and underrated player in Welker, and a lil' firepower for my WR3
#1 and #2 TEs in Clark & V Davis
A nasty & filthy PIT Defense that will be #1 after a few of the upcoming tomato cans they have on the schedule.
A couple of good kickers in Folk & Elam operating out of domes

Mix well

Anybody want to see a team start 3-7 and win $1,000,000? I know I do.



For you youngsters that don't understand the picture at the top of the post.

All Galaxy



My apologizes to the two people who inquired about my lack of recent blog updates. Managing 50 fantasy teams can be quite time consuming. Going forward, I will be updating the blog weekly every Friday. Now, let's get down to business...

Yesterday was All Saints Day, and if you were smart you started all your Saints. I expect Drew Brees to put on an absolute passing clinic tonight on MNF.

Brees is at his best when he's at home and feels threatened by a good offense. ATL's secondary is banged up and will be playing catch-up all night. They won't even try to get the overrated Michael Turner and his 2 yards per pop going. I think ATL will be able to put up enough points through the air to keep this a contest until the 3rd qtr. I play in the PayTheFan contest where you can play any player any week, and I have been frothing at the mouth waiting for this week to unleash Brees. My man Drew is going to light up the Superdome to the tune of 410yds and 5 TDs. Get your popcorn ready, and enjoy the All Galaxy performance.
