  • Dynasty Sleepers: RB

    Before I get going, I’d like to remind you to also check out my opinions on the sleeper QBs for the coming year. Now that I’ve finished that completely selfish advertisement, on to the RBs!

    Running Back is premier position in fantasy football. Very rarely will you find a successful team without at least 1 great RB, and more than likely, that team will have 2 or more top RBs. Because this is such an important position, RBs tend to get picked first and fast, and if you don’t get to them early, you might miss out all together. Here are 5 guys that should fall to at least the 4th round (which is very late by RB standards, most leagues draft RBs for the entire first round) and should help you be competitive in your league next year.

  • Dynasty Sleepers: QB

    I received a few friendly reminders here recently about my lack of posting, after vowing to do better this year. I’ve been rummaging through my brain trying to find something worth writing, and decided to divulge some more useless crap that I know about fantasy football.

    I’m the type of fantasy gamer that thinks football should be played all year; and since they stop playing games in mid-February, I do my part to ensure that I have plenty of things to keep me going year round. I’m currently in the middle of a startup dynasty draft (yes, ANOTHER dynasty draft, that makes 6 dynasty teams that I run!!) and we are approaching the mid rounds, when teams are truly separated because of their ability to grab key players, before they become household names. Before I start listing off these no-namers, I want to admit that I got alot of this research from other guys, and then looked into these players on my own, and I encourage you to do the same. Nobody gets it right every time, but I found a few people that seem to see things close to the same way I do, so I keep coming back for more insight. I’ll list them for you at the end.

    Enough with the introductions, let’s get on to the list making! This “edition” of my dynasty sleepers will focus on the QBs. I’ll catch you after the jump: (more…)

  • Ridiculously Freakin’ Awesome…

    That’s pretty much all I was able to say about the Dark Knight trailer. I’m sure, unless you live under a rock, that you’ve seen this already. But if not, I felt, being the entertainment editor around these parts, it was my duty. So please, take the time to click the following link and watch the trailer for what is, by far, the movie I’m most looking forward to in 2008.

  • New Year… new things… deal with it!!

    Probably fairly evident that I didn’t spend much time thinking about that title, but… life goes on.

    Alright, perhaps nobody reads this blog anymore, since we barely posted over the last 3 months or so, but I vow to do my best to remedy that problem, as Fred recently covered. I’m going to try to post SOMETHING every week. I put too much stock in coming up with something worth posting, which, after reading a couple other blogs, I realized that isn’t entirely necessary!

    I’ve been spending alot of time watching football lately. Some of these bowl games have been very intriguing, even the blowouts have had something that grabbed my interest (in the BCS games anyway). The NFL regular season is over and the playoffs start in a couple days, and the coaching carousel has swung into full effect. I’m sure I have some thoughts or opinions somewhere in those statements, but it seems to be escaping me at this moment. I’ll be sure to put my thoughts together just a bit before I start writing next time, but, just so you know… that time WILL come. Have a great 2008.

  • Turnabout is fair Play

    I’d like to take a moment to bask in my glory of sweet revenge:

    Orville Redenbacher 167

    Favorite Sports Team 161

    Fred rubbed it in my face at the outset of the fantasy football season when his team exploded and took my humble squad to school. Well, thanks to Denver making a 1st down late in the game on 4th and 2, and then passing to Brandon Marshall on two consecutive plays, I was able to squeak one by Fred and maintain my position in the race for the playoffs.

    This post I’m referring to is here.

    Good luck because I assume I will be meeting you again in the playoffs.
