Fantasy Thoughts Of The Week (that don't include Audrina Patridge)

Studs

It's playoff time in Fantasy Football land, and hopefully your team is in the playoffs. I've made the playoffs in all of my leagues, but I'm not feeling too confident. Bad decisions and bad trades have doomed the Fatpickles and the 22 Swinging Dicks.

This is the time of year where you have really great Sundays, or really shitty ones. I mean it really sucks if the team you root for and your fantasy team get knocked out of the playoffs on the same day. I sure hope that doesn't happen, it's a double whammy! And if you are a gambler and have a bad day on top of this, oh man! You'll be in the dumps till Christmas. But I am forever an optimist and I hope everyone reading this is a winner come Sunday!

My Studs this week are all guys that were on my team, but I traded them away. I cannot believe how bad these trades have become (for me). I'm hoping by labeling them Studs they will actually become Duds this weekend!

QB

Aaron Rodgers - I traded Rodgers for Jay Cutler several weeks ago. Cutler has been good, but Rodgers has been better.

Shaun Hill - I traded Shaun Hill for Brady Quinn. I wanted Quinn (a backup at the time) forgetting the fact that Hill was a starter for a Mike Martz's Offense. Quinn is out for the year!

RB

D'Angelo Williams - I traded Williams for Joseph Addai. At the time Williams was in a time share with Stewart, since the trade he is the #1 RB in Fantasy Football! Addai hasn't done much and hurt himself again in practice this week, he's questionable for Sunday!

WR

Marques Colston - I traded Colston for Vincent Jackson. After drafting Colston in the 4th round, he missed 6 weeks with a broken finger. I traded him and he is now playing like a top tier WR. Oh yeah, I didn't start Jackson Thursday Night! 5rec/148yds/59yd TD

Chad Johnson - I traded him for Derek Anderson. Johnson hasn't done much, but Anderson immediately lost his job and when he regained it, he blew out his knee. He is out for the year.

Oh well, if I lose I'll have more time to work on my sales technique!

Cheers and Hail

Fantasy Thoughts For Week 10 (that don't include my wife)

Studs

The trades that I talked about last week have produced immediate dividends. After adding Cutler, Quinn, and Addai, I feel I am strengthening my team for a playoff run in The League. Pairing Cutler with Royal on Thursday night produced 86 points for 22 Swinging Dicks, and I lead Sticky Fingers by 109 points heading into today. I feel pretty good about my chances of coming away with a win. My Studs this week do not come with any dialogue, I'm having trouble keeping up with the short NFL week. Cutler is on my list of Studs, as I completed my research Wednesday, but couldn't post till now.

Fantasy Thoughts For Week 9 (that don't include Olga Kurylenko)

Stud?

Well the car business may be slow, but that didn't stop me from wheeling and dealing this week. I was able to pick up Jay Cutler, Joseph Addai, and Derek Anderson in trades this week. Now it's time to give Porkboy46 the beat down. Here are my Fantasy studs for week 9.

QB's

Cutler - Denver has 4 Rb's on their roster, and all 4 are listed as questionable. Sounds like Denver is going to have to pass a lot, but watch out for Ryan Torain.
Orton - Hard to imagine, but Orton has been a top 5 Fantasy QB for the past 6 weeks. This week he has the Lions.
Pennington - This game has the potential to be a shootout, and Denver flat out sucks against the pass.
Warner - Another game that will have lots of points. Warner goes crazy in the place where he won 2 MVP's
RB's
Forte - He's going against the Lions and you know how I fell about that.
Graham - Dunn is out so he should get the bulk of the carries. KC has the worst run D ever.
Jackson - First he's got to play. But, if he can get over his strained vagina he'll have a big day.
Turner - He's going against the Raiders and you know how I feel about that.
WR's
Avery - Back to back appearances here, but he's hot and the Cards give up lots of TD's thru the air.
Boldin - He's back, he's healthy, and all he does is score Td's.
Evans - He's been posting some big #'s, I don't see the #'s slipping this week.
White - Another guy who appears again this week. Ryan goes to him as much as I go to the fridge for a cold beer.

Enjoy the games.

Fantasy Recap Week 7...Studs or Duds

Week 7 was a hard week for my fantasy teams. I went 0-3 on the week, losing the 3 games by a combined 8 points. Check out the stat lines from my 3 WR's in The League:

Colston 0 rec 0 yds

Cotchery 1 rec 0 yds

Harrison 2 rec 11 yds

That's right 1 fantasy point from 3 players, unbelievable.

However, if you took my advice on my Fantasy Studs for Week 7, you were sitting pretty. Lets take a look out how my fantasy picks worked out.

Cassel - 185yds, 3TD STUD Wow Brady healed quickly, oh wait that's the Broncos secondary turning Cassel into Brady

Edwards - 265yds, TD STUD barely, only because NFL QB's struggled big time in Week 7. He was a solid play

P. Manning - 229yds, 0TD, 2INT's DUD horrible, he turned the Pack defense into studs, throwing two picks returned for scores

Schaub - 267yds, 2TD STUD another nice game, but what do you expect against the Lions?

Barber - 113yds, TD STUD they fell behind early and got away from the run too soon, could have been better

C. Johnson(Ten) - 172yds, 2TD STUD could have been even bigger, he was tripped up headed to the endzone w/ no one ahead of him

Slaton - 89yds, TD STUD Green stole a TD from him, but still solid

D. Williams(Car) - 70yds, TD STUD I'll take that from a #3 RB any week

A. Johnson - 11rec, 141yds STUD a TD would have been nice, but how can you complain?

R. Moss - 69yds, 2TD STUD 1 more yard and I tie in one of my leagues

Ward - 60yds, TD STUD He's a Stud for this

Wayne - 24yds TD DUD Manning's terrible game = Wayne's terrible game

Bonus Pick

Buc's D/ST - Dud no Td's, they gave up a garbage time TD

10 out of 12 (forget the bonus pick) not to shabby!
