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!

Did you hear that? That was Brock breathing a sigh of relief since CJ signed

Well, phew Damn it. Now that the Titans have a running back again I can refocus all of my energy on next weeks draft and figuring out how many different ways I can make our current Super Bowl Chump cry this season.  As far as the league goes everything seems to be right on schedule.  Jay has still yet to sign up for the league, he got himself a Yahoo account but has still yet to make a team in the league.  I am also sure that all of you all have been holding back any questions about this season until 5 minutes before the draft just so we can spend another hour or two explaining the rules to you.  So yep we're right on schedule.  While on the subject of being on schedule it didn't take long for Patrick to call and ask if I was taking CJ third overall.  I will tell you all the same thing I told him;  I was all set to start my season without CJ and now he has thrown big fuckin' wrench in it all.  So I don't think I even know yet.  I'm going to try this weekend to have epiphany this weekend by drinking until  I start seeing shit.  I'll let you know what the spirit guides tell me on Monday.

Speaking of spirits "Tino"  you still alive MoFo? If anyone sees him this weekend be sure to let him know that we have a draft on Wednesday

Anyways that will wrap it for this week.

In the words of the great Squishy Bear "Go Titans!  Boo Patriots"
