First Fantasy Football Post f 2012

Sep 25, 2012 17:08

I haven't posted about Fantasy Football yet.  What's up with that?

Oh yeah, I am terrible.

Still, here goes.

The Saluki Dawgs (2-1) -I drafted late, and so went with a total offbeat strategy.  I would draft the two top receivers in the game (Calvin Johnson, Larry Fitzgerald) and then draft every random running back I could find.  Results have not been convincing either way, though Calvin Johnson is surely as good as anybody in the fantasy game.  Also, because of injuries, i had to start a guy named Colby Fleener last week.

The Iowa Caucuses (1-2)  Interestingly, ESPN gave my draft class an A+, which helps feed my ego as that I am as good at that this "sport" as anyone.  That said, my #1 pick was Chris Johnson and my team is gawdawful squeaking out one pitiful 65-57 win last week.  Still, I feel I've picked up two strong free agents (Andre Brown and Danny Amendola) and never consider myself counted out.  That said, I think I might actually bench Chris Johnson this week, which will probably bite me, but I can't see playing him.

Your reward for reading my Fantasy post is from Bill Simmons (and you should probably know QB Brandon Weeden made an epically terrible debut in Week 1)

And now, for your reading pleasure, a list of performances that are better than Brandon Weeden's QB rating from Sunday (5.1 out of 158.3, 3.2%)

• Caddyshack II's Rotten Tomatoes rating (8 out of 100)
• Michael Jordan's 1994 Batting Average with the Birmingham Barons (.202)
• Eli Manning's "Man Coverage" rating in Madden 13 (8 out of 99)
• Number of bullets the cow from Me, Myself and Irene survived (9)
• Number of kayaking medals Hungary won in the 2012 Summer Olympics (6)
Master P's Zombie Shuffle score on Dancing With The Stars (8 out of 30)
• Number of disambiguation entries in Wikipedia for the word "panini" (7)
• Shaq's career 3-point percentage (1 of 22, 4.5%)
• Number of days David Arquette was the WCW World Heavyweight Champion (12)
• Nick Swisher's Swinging Strike Percentage … as a Pitcher (8%)
• And finally, Colt McCoy's worst-ever QB Rating (27.0)
