The Omitted Issue

This past weekend on my way to Nashville to watch the Titans get pummeled by a Andre Johnson-less Texans team.  SMH...  It was brought to my attention that apparently the one week I took off apparently everything happened in the league (or at least for Johnny and Scott).  So I decided to include a little bit from 3 weeks ago to make 1/6 of my reading base happy.  So here we go.  YEAH!  Johnny finally won a game and he did it with 4 people on by!  Maybe that should be your strategy from now, bench half your team and hope the other half carries you to victory.  Only flaw is that you can't play the Patriots every week.  Mr. Feldman...  Scott found it to be highly coincidental that the one week I didn't write the Blog was the same week he ruined my undefeated season.  So here you go Scott, I hope this makes up for the two game losing skid your in right now.

"In week 5 Blowout of the week it was the 'Clash of the Undefeated's'.  But with half of the Titan's team on bye it was more like leading cattle to slaughter.  The Lions took an early lead in this one and despite the legendary combination of Titus Young, James Starks, Isaac Redman on the Titans roster, the Lions just pulled further and further away in this one."
There you go guys.  Now everyone else is going to want to know why I don't write about their crappy team's "amazing" victories.  I hope your fucking happy.   Now lets get back to our regularly scheduled program.

Decapitators Vs Packers         (Blowout of the Week)


There's the Johnny that we've grown accustomed to.  I have to admit I was pulling for an underdog victory when Brees put up 45 points in the Sunday night game and they pulled him in the 4th quarter.  I was thinking No, Don't  Johnny only needs 30 more points.  In which by the way that game had been going it was very conceivable.  I can picture Brandon saying "Thank God" when they finally pulled Brees.  Next week the Decapitators take on the Lions and DaBears are given a gift next week since Green Bay is on bye ergo so is 3/4 of the (Fudge)Packers team.  (think about it)

Lions Vs Arrowheads 


Wow!  Loss number two for the Lions.  One more and that makes a streak.  Even the Mile High Messiah couldn't save the Lions Bye week team though he was their top scorer.  The Arrowheads has an unbelievable game out of (FUCKING) Arian Foster and Demarco Murray that managed to tame the Lions last week and give the Arrowheads a 20 point victory.  the Lions will face the Decapitators next week (don't fuck this up Scott) and the Arrowheads look to continue winning against the Steelers.

Bear Down Brawlers Vs Gridiron Assassins


What should have been an easy victory for the Brawlers he turned into a closer that I would have liked game.  It looked like a tough week for the Brawlers as just a couple members of his team were able to break double digits.  As for the Assassins well we'll just call them the new "Tino" and move on.  The Bear Down Brawlers look to keep putting up low numbers against the Titans next week, while the Gridiron Assassins will try to not give the game away to the Chiefs.

Steelers Vs. Dabears


It was an average game out of both teams here.  The deciding factor was Adrian Peterson putting up nearly 30 points for the Steelers to give him the victory.  Looking at some of the players on both of these teams I hope that they were plagued by the Bye Week Blues or it could be a long season for both of them.  The Steelers will take on the Arrowheads next week and DaBears will try their luck against the Packers.  May God go with you both.

Chiefs Vs 49ers


I really thought the Chiefs were going to pull this one off.  But with lackluster performances out of Reggie Wayne, Mercedes Lewis, and Chris Johnson (thanks again Hull) it makes it difficult to win games even when Seattle's Defense puts up 21 points for you (WTF?!) Even though both teams had players that just didn't show up for them, the Chiefs just managed to have more.  Which was the main reason for their demise.  Next week the Chiefs look to take on the Gridiron assassins in what should be a bounce back game for them and the 49ers look for victory against the Patriots.

Titans Vs Patriots       (Nail-Biter of the Week)


It was a disgraceful game for both the Tennessee Titans(Thank god i didn't pick up their D)  and the Titans this week.  In what should have been an easy game for both one team gets blown out (Fucking Arian Foster) and the other just barely squeaks by a win.  Let's hope that both teams bounce back this week, which is a possibility since Tennessee plays the Colts and I look to continue my undefeated streak against Don.  Here's hoping for the the best!


On a side note I wanted to give a little love to Patrick's 49ers who are now sitting at 5-1 and comming off their bye.  It only took 10 + years of Patrick saying that this is their year, but who knows this could be their year.  Also the Steelers play the Patriots this weekend in real life which is basically a game of which team I despise more.  Since both teams will be in the same place at the same time it would be a great time for any terrorists to take out two birds with one stone...  Just Saying.  : p

Good luck to everyone this weekend!

Oh... How the Mighty Have Fallen.

To go from undefeated to losing to Todd.  What a fall that is.  It just goes to show what a competitive league ours has become.  But as Scott put it now that he has his one loss out of the way the pressure is off and he can concentrate on the playoffs.  We had several close games this week that were decided by just a few points.  My team got back on track with a good win against Jay.  With the exception of a few that have been able to find a little seperation from the rest of the pack it looks to be a tight race for playoffs.  PLAYOFFS!???  Yes, I am already talking about the playoffs were are at the halfway point of the fantasy season and I plan to be there. "Who's coming with  me?"

Titans Vs Gridiron Assassins         (Blowout of the Week)


Now that's what I'm talking about!  After the bye week bit me in the ass last week I was thrilled to see my team bounce back.  I didn't have anybody really blow up for me this week.  I just had a better than usual game out of Colston and a solid performance from the rest of my team.  Next week it's a feud of the family as I take on my wife (Patriots).  Fortunately she singing the Bye week blues this week so hopefully I can add another "W" for my team.  The Assassins face off against the Bear Down Brawlers.

Lions Vs DaBears


I don't know about the rest of you, but after the Lions ruined my undefeated season last week I found myself secretly pulling for DaBears in this one and was kinda glad to see them pull it off.  DaBears pulled it off with help from Stafford and a 2009 esque game from Michael Turner.  On the other side of the coin the Lions players just didn't show up for him.  Better luck next week.  The Lions also saw the foresight last week to pick up Tim Tebow to back up Mike Vick.  Now he has two QB's that are injury risks and are highly likely to be on IR by week 10.  The Lions move on to face the Arrowheads and DaBears will face the Steelers.

Bear Down Brawlers Vs 49ers        ( Nail Biter of the Week)


This was a close one that came down to Monday night and Dustin Keller.  I bet Don still cringes when he hears that name.  There was only a two point difference in the final scores, but it wasn't a stellar outing by either team with neither team breaking a hundred points..  But from a look at the rosters it looks like both teams had some byes this week.  The 49ers take on the Chiefs next and the Brawlers look for redemption against the Gridiron Assassins.

Decapitators Vs Arrowheads 

Well, Well, Well...  Look who won a game.  Don'y call it a comeback, because Johnny says he's already arrived.  It was Brees and Gore that put up the most points for the Decapitators, with Hartline pulling out the win for him Monday night.  The Arrowheads made a good try at it with the Jets D putting up 27 points for him.  Next week the Decapitators look to extend their winning streak to two against the Packers(I'm Pulling for you Johnny) and Arrowheads look to get back into the mix against the Lions.

Packers Vs Steelers 


The Steelers made a valiant effort against the Packers last week.  But with the entire Green Bay Packers facing off against the Rams, this one was almost over before it started.  Bet you wish you had started Delone Carter Huh Fetter (inside joke).  If the (Fudge)Packers keep on starting Washington running backs it gives everyone a shot to win against him.  That or when is Green Bay's Bye week?  By the way has anyone else noticed that last years Superbowl Chump has the same record as the Decapitators.  Can you say Hangover?
The Packers take on the mighty Decaoitators next week and the Steelers take on DaBears.

Patriots Vs  Chiefs


This game was another close one that had the Patriots up by 14 points going into Monday night.  Thank God for Kickers though.  Huh Hull?  With only Santonio Holmes and Nick Folk left on his roster, the Chiefs managed to pull off the victory here even without Legarette Blount.  It didn't hurt having Freeman and Fred Jackson put up 50 points for him.  The Chiefs look for another win next week against the 49ers and the Patriots will accept another loss against the Titans.


Since I didn't have an opportunity to write last week I thought I would make a couple o observations that I saw.  Starting with "Making it Rain".  After seeing a 103 dollars dropped last week on waivers I see that everyone understands how the waiver system works now.  (except for Jay maybe)  I was a little shocked to see the amount of money that players were going for.  But I hope everyone's investments payoff for them and I encourage everyone to keep on spending.  Also I've noticed that a lot of you aren't reading your emails for some reason.  So I'll let you know now if a recently injured player is on waivers and it's too good to be true than it probably is.  That player has been dropped to IR.  If there is any doubt feel free to ask.  FYI the current players on IR are Kenny Britt, Legarette Blount, and Peyton Manning.  That will wrap it up for this weeks.  Good Luck to every one!

Clash of the Titans??????

So it comes down to this.  Two undefeated juggernauts are pitted against each other in a battle to the death.  Two men enter one man leaves.  Unfortunately I don't believe I will be the victor in this competition, between injuries and singing the bye week blues I don't believe I have enough depth to put together a competent fantasy team this week.  Which I am sure truly saddens many of you out there.  SMH...  But if the fantasy football gods see fit to find me in their favor then I will feel honored to remain undefeated one more week.  Even if I do lose it could be a lot worse, I could be the Decapitators.  Seriously someone needs to figure out when he is mathematically eliminated.  Anyways lets get to it.

Lions Vs Bear Down Brawlers          (Blowout of the Week)


Well this is encouraging for me, my adversary this week put up 175 points against the Brawlers last week.  The Lions had a huge game out of Vick and Baltimore's Defense last week combining for nearly 75 points.  Also with the Brawlers suffering the loss of Andre Johnson for a few weeks made it nearly impossible to tame the Lions.  Unfortunately I face the Lions this week, while the Brawlers look for redemption against the Steelers.

Titans Vs Decapitators
How bout them Titans!  Not only are we on a winning streak but their defense also helped me to keep Johnny in the cellar.  Jimmy Graham and Ray Rice also had pretty good games for me, while Johnny's team, was well being Johnny's team.  I will try to protect my winning streak this week against the Lions and the Patriots look to get an easy win off of the Decapitators.

Steelers Vs Gridiron Assassins


The Steelers had a unusually good game out of Matt Ryan last week which is probably what put his team over the top this week.  He edged out the Assassins by 8 points and was a contender for the Nail-biter of the week but believe it or not there was a closer game.  The Steelers go on to face the Brawlers this week while the Assassins look to extend their losing streak against the Arrowheads.

Chiefs Vs DaBears


Wow!  What a week for the Chiefs!  The Kansas City Chiefs and the Chiefs pull off a win in the same week.  The planets just seemed to align for the Chiefs as Tanpa Bay team combined for over 52 points.  Possibly Kansas City and the Chiefs share a destiny and are linked together.  So as one succeeds so will the other (or maybe they both just got lucky).  The Chiefs move on to face the Packers and DaBears will face the 49ers.

Packers Vs Patriots


Even with Wes Welker and Hakeem Nicks putting up 60+ points for her, she dishonored  "The Family" by losing to an outsider.  Of course if I had a Quaterback that would put up 60 points for me I wouldn't lose many games either.  The Patriots should regain respect from "The Family" when she takes on the Decapitators and the (Fudge)Packers will move on to play the Chiefs.

Arrowheads Vs 49ers    (Nail-biter of the Week)


This was a close one even for Nail-biter standards.  With less than a 3 point difference between the scores this one could have gone either way.  The 49ers managed to pull this one off last week though and the Arrowheads fall to 2-2.  This week the 49ers take on DaBears and the Arrowheads look for a win against the Assassins.

This weeks blog was a little short but I'm on VACATION bitches.  So we'll embarrass people more next week.  Good luck to everyone!  Go Titans!!!  Steelers Suck!!!!

And Then There Was Two...

I'm going to start this week out with just a little bit of a rant.  Ahem...  KENNY FUCKING BRITT!  FUCKING KENNY BRITT!  MOTHER FUCKING, DAMN IT, KENNY BRITT!  Alright now we can get down to business.  In case you haven't heard Kenny Britt tore his ACL and MCL and will be out for the season.  So we get to see what the titans look like with Nate Washington as their number one receiver, a decent defense, and an almost non existent run game.  (Hull feels me on that one...). But back to it now.  It was an interesting week for a lot of us.  Some of us moved on to 3-0 and others moved down to 0-3.  Which brings us to our first game and the Blowout of the Week goes to the ...

Bear Down Brawlers Vs Chiefs.     (Blowout of the Week)

Well I guess we know who is gearing up to make a run for the golden plunger.  The Brawlers put up the second highest numbers for the week and with the Chiefs barely able to break 90 points this game was almost over before it started.  The Brawlers move on next week to face Lions (which ought to be a good match-up) and the Chiefs will continue to chase their Goal for the Bowl next week against DaBears.

Lions Vs Steelers

I thought this game was going to be a lot closer than what it was but the Lions missed receiving the blowout of the week by less than a point.  The Lions had a lot of player break above twenty but what helped the had to be his tight end (The Gronk) throwing up 26 points this week.  It also didn't hurt that Fetter decided to roll the dice on Peyton Hillis this week hoping that he would accumulate points from his couch while trying to get overcome strep throat.  Ahhh!  Snake eyes Damn it.  Good work there Steelers.  As you know the Lions face the Brawlers and the Steelers get a chance to improve to 2-2 against the Gridiron Assassins.

Decapitators Vs DaBears

Here's your other contender for the Golden Plunger.  DaBears put a 50 point shellacking on the Decapitators which managed a modest 104 points.  Keep up the good work Johnny, I play you this week.  I hate to think that your still paying for all that smack you talked before the Superbowl 2 years ago.  Seriously someone needs to do the math to find out when the Decapitators and the Chiefs will be eliminated from playoff contention.  :) Just kidding both teams still have plenty of time to turn it around this year.  DaBears next opponent will be the Chiefs.

Titans Vs 49ers

Going into this game I thought that I was going to suffer my first loss.  After all Patrick always gives me a good game.  I was comforted however with his loss of Jamal Charles and even so thought Patrick had a good enough team to contend.  But his team let him down last week and weren't able to overcome the almighty Titans.  The Decapitators look to ruin my perfect season this week while the 49ers move on to face the Arrowheads. 


Packers Vs Arrowheads.    (Nail-biter of the week)


This was a close one.  For some reason I found myself pulling for the Arrowheads in this match-up.  Neither team had any one player have an extraordinary game for them.  It was just a combination of average and below average performances from each roster and it was probably an above average performance out of Janikowski that won it for the Arrowheads.  Arrowheads move on to play the 49ers this week while the (Fudge)Packers look to pick up the pieces against the Patriots.

Patriots Vs Gridiron Assassins

I'm fell proud and sorry for my girl at the same time.  She has put together a pretty good team and has won a couple of games, hell she might even make it to the playoffs.  But that's where I start feeling bad for her because there is now way she makes it pass me in the playoffs.  Haha Just kidding.  No seriously a lot of football left to play.  As far as this game goes two words "Wes Welker".  That is who pulled the Patriots to victory this week.  Next week the Patriots look to take on the Packers and the Assassins will try their luck against the Steelers.

Next week I will be on vacation so I doubt that I will get one of these out.  If anyone would like to earn favor with "The Family"  I will be driving to South Carolina during the 1:00 games and would appreciate any Titans updates.  As always good luck everybody!

Someone Tell Fetter to Go Back to Talking Smack

A lot happened this week especially on the injury front.  Hull's Chiefs look destined to take a step back this year with the injury of Jamal Charles.  Which hopefully bodes well for me since I play Patrick this week.  Other than that the entire Dallas offense got hot by a MAC truck named the 49ers defense this weekend and Vick suffered his first concussion of the season (many more to follow).  Let's get to it.

Game 1:  Steelers Vs Decapitators    (Blowout of the Week)
I figured that I would start something new this week by recapping the blowout of the week first and wow this was a blowout.  Though if the Decapitators seasoncontinues the way it has s
started he'll become a regular in this blowout section. With just about everyone on the Steelers roster blowing up this week and the injuries affecting Johnny's team the Decapitators didn't have much of a chance. The Steelers numbers should fizzle down this week when he plays the Lions and the Decapitators will get a chance to redeem himself against DaBears. Look at this way Johnny if you can't pull off a win this week then there is always next year.

 Game 2: Lions Vs Packers 
After the week 1 that the (fudge)Packers and the Lions had there was high hopes that this would be a true battle of titans. Unfortunately with the Lions getting out to an early lead and the Packers team only putting up average numbers the game was pretty much over by Sunday afternoon. The Lions look to keep their winning streak going and possibly without the services of Vick this week against the Steelers. The Packers will face off against the Arrowheads. By the way sorry about the whole fudge(Packers) thing, it was really well received by your fellow league members and you got to give the people what they want.

 Game 3: Bear Down Brawlers Vs Patriots
Well the Ellis Mafia might have lost a member this year, but we seem to be as strong as ever.  Just ask Don, who now suffers an 0-2 start from "The Family."  The Patriots win was in large part to Detroit.  Between Jahvid Best and Detroit's D gained a lead early and with the rest of her team putting up average numbers was enough to find victory.  The Patriots take on the Gridiron Assassins and the Bear Down Brawlers look for their first win against the Chiefs.

Game 4:  Titans Vs Chiefs
In this game it wasn't so much of the Titans' roster blowing up as much as it was a lot of the Chiefs players not putting anything.  A Win is a win though and I'll take it.  This week I match-up against the 49ers and the Chiefs take on the Brawlers.  A possible preview of the Toilet Bowl Championship??????  Just a heads up Hull, Don says he is coming for the plunger!

Game 5:  DaBears Vs Arrowheads  (Nail-Biter of the week)
This game came down to the wire.  Going into Monday night the Arrowheads held a slight lead, but DaBears held the better players going into Monday Night Football but as anyone knows you never know how things can turn out.  But DaBears managed to reclaim the lead and hold onto it to pick up his first win.  The Arrowheads move on to play the Packers and DaBears look to start a streak against the Decapitators.

Game 6:  49ers Vs Gridiron Assassins
Tough week for the 49ers here.  With the loss of their first round pick and the heart-braking loss to the Cowboys in overtime I'm not sure how he made it out of bed Monday morning.  I'm sure the only thing that eases the pain was kicking the crap out of the Gridiron Assassins.  Vincent Jackson and Phillip Rivers put up big numbers for the 49ers last week, while the Assassins had a couple of players put up goose eggs.  (Another contender for the plunger??) .  Lets hope that this was Patrick's good game for the year since I have to face him this week as for the Assassins the look to take the other half of the Ellis Mafia.

Good Luck to everyone this weekend and just a reminder don't be "That Guy" pay your league dues if you haven't yet.

So, why didn't we draft for Tino?

Whose fucking idea was it to bring in this ringer of a (fudge)Packers fan?  There for a minute I thought he was going to break 200 points this week.  Before I get into the games of the past week and next weeks match-ups I would like to send out my personal thanks out to the Chiefs for saving me from my homerism and taking C.J. second overall.  Thanks, Hull!  Now lets get to it.


Game 1:  Titans Vs Bear Down Brawlers

I was nervous coming into this game thinking that I might have screwed up taking three running backs in the first three rounds of the draft and that my consecutive win streak over the Brawlers might finally come to an end.  Thankfully my streak over the Brawlers continues on for a few more weeks with an outstanding game from Ray Rice and what I will admit was a lucky game from Kenny Britt.  In week 2 the Titans take on the Chiefs and the Brawlers move on to face the Patriots.

Game 2:  Patriots Vs 49ers 


I don't know why but it is always a close game with these two.  It even comes down to tenths of a point, doesn't it Patrick?  The Patriots put up a valiant effort especially Monday night with Welker putting 33 points.  But in the end even Welker couldn't overcome the suckfest that was the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.  It also doesn't hurt to have Rivers putting up 23 for you.  In week 2 the 49ers will try their luck against the Gridiron Assassins.

Game 3:  Lions Vs Decapitators


Well Johnny's luck from last season just seems to be carrying over into this one.  After somehow being able to continue his draft day blunders by drafting the injured Terrell Thomas and now it looks like Colston will miss a month or two.  I would like to say that the Decapitators put up a fight but truth is that the Lions waxed that ass.  If it wasn't for Brees and Benson putting up over half his points this game would have been a massacre.  Better luck to the Decapitators who face off with the Steelers in week 2.  As far as the Lions they face the Packers and here's hoping Vick breaks his leg before I'm  scheduled to play him.

Game 4:  Steelers Vs Arrowheads


Well, Well, Well, I think the words "First to Worst" sums it all up.  As far as the Arrowheads, way to make a statement by beating up on last years champ and wiping that shit eating grin off his face.  Welcome to the league!  Now start sucking before I have to play you.  By the way tough loss with Berry for the year.  The Arrowheads will try to continue their win streak against DaBears in week 2.

Game 5:  Packers Vs DaBears


The new guy came into this league sandbagging himself saying that he hadn't been keeping up with football and didn't know how well he would do this year.  I guess his strategy of drafting the entire Green Bay Packers is paying off so far but we will see if this pattern continues throughout the season.  The Packers put great numbers on Thursday night but seemed to fizzle out by the end of the weekend.  DaBears put up respectable numbers this week that would have beat half the people in our league, but all that matters right now is Wins and Loses.

Game 6:  Chiefs Vs Gridiron Assassins


So which is worse?  To be the person with the worst draft or to be beat by the person who had the worst draft.  In this match up the the line ups seemed to favor the Chiefs but when Tom Brady throws for over 500  yards it tends to tip the scales in the Assassins favor.  But this won't happen every week and the Assassins's numbers will come back closer to earth.


That will do it for this week.  I will try to do a preview of the week 2 games if I have the time but with a couple hundred pages of reading to get to I doubt it.  Good luck to everyone this week!

A little something from Brad

I'm going to post up a few pictures that I found on Brad's computer for anyone that would like to make it their gamer pic or that just something nice to look at.  Enjoy!
