2-1 Ronnie Brown Or LT??




I looked at the points and my opponent had Ronnie Brown from the Dolphins running while I had the top pick in LT from the Chargers. Ronnie racks up forty while LT comes in with a chump like 15. I lose by 18 points so who would pick Ronnie Brown instead of LT.?? I offered up as a joke LT to the commish. I should have really done it. Then I listen to Bradshaw and Howie how great Detroit is so I leave the hot rookie on the starting team and sit Burress who Has a Q by his name. Then I pick the Lions D... which proceeds to give up 56. Then Ocho Cinco fails to find the end zone. I hope my Adrian Peterson for Plaxico gets by the commish. Peterson is the Vikings only hope and I hate cheering for a Giant player like Plaxico . I see Brian Westbrook who was supposed to be riding pine saved the Pink team from Mark Buglers ----negative one. Some solace for a Rams fan I reckon. Next week will bring back my winning ways

Two and Nil: Go Team


With my team riding high on the arm of Carson Palmer and catches of Chad Johnson this fantasy football is proving to be fun. Of course the commissioner and owner of some Pink type Doom team told me to take it easy because it is a long season.... but then he has the loser Rams and Mark Bulger who gets yards but no TD's.

I found my self somewhat confused on how to watch and react to the Bungles-Browns game. Being a Steelers fan it is tough to cheer for either the Browns or Bengals. This last game I was cheering for both of them to run up the score while also cheering for Cinncy to lose in the end. They listened with 6 TDs from the QB and two TDs from Chad. The XPs also add up. Last week I was going for the Ravens to tie the score against the Bungles so Palmer would get the chance to throw for some more yards.
I watch games hoping for a lot of scoring knowing that my opponent didn't have any Browns on the team.

Story Of a Winner






Futball d’American
Expert Analysis of the 2007 Draft
Prepared by Pink Fluffy Bunny Slippers of Doom (league commissioner)
AKA

Here’s how The Early Favorite graded out,
Vikqueens (Keith Gilbertson)
By luck of the draw, Vqueens garnered the #1 overall selection of the draft, thereby meriting the services of one LaDainian Tomlinson RB. Because LT’s fantasy value far surpasses all others’, the Vqueen’s draft couldn’t help but grade out well. Chad Johnson WR and Carson Palmer QB will certainly look smart in Vqueen uniforms this season. Johnson was the top receiver taken in many a draft, and Palmer is the clear cut #2 quarterback after a certain Indy QB. Yet one can’t help question the wisdom of waiting until the 6th round to select the team’s second tailback, though it turned out okay given Brandon Jackson RB is the likely starter in Green Bay. Not a bad take for the 84th pick overall. But depth is a serious issue for the Vqueens as their draft went flatline after round 7. Taking a kicker in that next round was ill advised, and Chris Henry WR in the 10th? This jaded Bengal is suspended for the first half of the season. Overall, Vqueens appears to be a serious playoff contender, but injuries to one or two key starters will decimate their chances.
Value Picks
L. Tomlinson - Rd 1
B. Jackson - Rd 6
A. Crumpler – Rd 7
Throwaway Pick
C. Henry – Rd 10
Boom or Bust:
C. Johnson – Rd 5
OVERALL GRADE: B+
