Week 2 Last-Minute, Start’em/Sit’em: You be the Judge

Sunset tonight was the end of one of the Jewish High Holy Days, Yom Kippur. It is also known as the day of Judgment. On this day, Jewish people all over the world, fast refraining from eating or drinking for 24 hours to atone for the sins of the past year in the hopes of [...]

Have Faith in Mr Favre

In my TD only league I traded for Mr Favre. I had the unfortunate luck of having BOTH Stafford and Kolb in this league. I was lucky enough to have depth at RB with AP, Arian Foster, and Pierre Thomas. Since I’m unable to play 3 backs each week I made the difficult decision to [...]

Fantasy Surprises Week 1

Well it was a surprising week. Who would have predicted that Mark Clayton would score 22 point in a PPR league. He had 119 yards and 10 receptions. I did write a piece saying I thought Clayton would become the number 1 in STL. I never thought it would have happened after week 1. I [...]
