Week 1 2010 Raiders/Titans Preview

This is one of the more middling fantasy matchups for the 2010 season’s NFL week. Raiders/Titans feature one marquee name and no one needs to be told to start 2009 rushing champ and consensus 2010 No. 1 pick Chris Johnson. Your expectations for him, per usual, should be very high. 120 yards and 40 receiving [...]

Dallas Clark - 2010 fantasy prospects

An article I contributed to my buddy John’s fledgling fantasy football site, www.ffpharmacy.com
Dallas Clark has been one of the top two tight ends off the board in fantasy football drafts this summer so far (along with Vernon Davis). The 31 year old Clark is coming off of a career season, hitting the century mark with [...]

100th Post

Have been away for a minute, just haven’t had anything relevant to post. But it’s almost playoff time, so want to check in. Keeper football is going well, 8-4 with 3rd seed locked up and a chance to move up if I win or one of the other 9-3 guys lose. It’s not a likely [...]

When Does Trading Affect the Rest of the League? And Should You Care?

The trade deadline in my keeper football league has came and went, so there have been a few trades over the last few days (this trade season has been extremely stagnant) as owners scramble to upgrade or shore up their rosters as we head into the last 6 weeks of the regular season. As mentioned [...]

With Atrocious Teams Abounding in the NFL, Viable Options are Becoming Limited in Fantasy Football

It’s been a while, Happy Halloween Everyone!!! I have been super busy, working a lot, the school year being in full swing now, and working on my book, so haven’t been writing as much as I would like. I am 4-3 in my keeper football league, after a bonehead maneuver (more on that later) and [...]

Tony Romo

This is the Romo we are going to see most of the year. With that deep rushing attack the Cowboys are going to feature the run more, so Romo won’t be a top 5 QB and the great games (like vs TB) will be the outlier, not the norm. I dropped him with great trepidation [...]

Fantasy Football Week 3

After an anemic week 1 showing, my fantasy football team came alive in week 2, highlighted by a mind-blowing effort by Chris “Flash” Johnson, which I am sure you know about if you follow football, fantasy or otherwise. I read on CBS Fantasy Sports he’s the “sit of the week” but no way that’s going [...]

Fantasy Football Draft Recap

My twitter was acting up the Sunday during the draft, so I couldn’t tweet the draft like I wanted to, so here is the synopsis. Andy traded DeAngelo Williams to move up with Levon for Antonio Gates and the 3rd pick in the re-draft overall, which equates to a 5th rd pick. But Stat King [...]

Cutler’s departure’s impact on Marshall?

I know we are on the cusp of baseball season starting, but all this Jay Cutler cry baby nonsense trade talk has me wondering if I should keep Brandon Marshall in my keeper football league. He should be suspended as a “repeat” offender in violation for the NFL conduct policy during the beginning of the [...]

Fantasy Draft Location

I wonder what’s the strangest places for drafting is. I have done it at friends’ homes. I have done it at a sports bar and/or restaurant. I have done it in someone’s backyard. I have drafted on the phone, via conference call. Of course, with the mainstream sites like cbsportsline.com, yahoo.com, ESPN.com, etc installing the [...]
