What a week! First the Yanks lose, then the Phils lose... and then the Giants end the Cowboys season, and Tony Homo's aswell. With a win in both leagues, I don't think it could have gone any better. Oh yea it did, the Rangers dominated the Devils. And what a surprise... Gabe's matchup comes down to MNF once again.
Mr. Bojangles vs AaronBrooks2JoeHorn
One of these weeks Gabe's matchup won't come down to the last game of the week. Also, maybe one of these weeks Gabe's team might actually win... probably not though. With the matchup virtually tied going into MNF, it came down to Eli vs Steve Smith. To start off the game, Eli threw 2 pics, immediately putting Bojangles down 4 points. Even with Steve Smith having a great game putting up 20 pts, Bojangles survived a late Eli int to beat AaronBrooks2JoeHorn by 1 point. Behind the impressive playe of Eli's 22 pts, Bojangles rbs continue to be consistent and both McCoy and S-Jax scored 14 pts. Even Bironas contributed with a key 14 pts out of the kicker position. With Dez Bryant finally breaking out, Jacobs and the Law Firm consistently scoring touchdowns, and even Fred Jackson looking like the feature back... Bojangles is looking strong and built for the long-run. As for Gabe, Hines Ward had a nice game with 23 pts and Brandon Jackson with 19, but the big story here was the -2 points that Gabe got out of Denver Def, who let up 53 pts. If he had started Bears Def, he would have gotten 18 pts out of them, and a Win. But he didn't and Bojangles got a big win against a team he had to beat. He will face off against The Return of the Rash next week in hopes of getting his 3rd win in a row. Gabe will take on the Fantasy Phenom in hopes of possibly the biggest upset of the season.
Silk/Stein TBD vs Fantasy Phenom
Sitting at 0-3 just 4 weeks ago, who would have thought that Silk/Stein TBD would be the hottest team in league with 4 wins a row and now a victory over the #1 team in the league. ALSO, who would have thought that a team that started Kenny Britt who had 44 pts, would actually lose. Well it happened and if it wasn't for Britt, the Fantasy Phenom would have lost by a ALOT. Foster having a bye did not help, but I don't think he could have predicted this outcome. Besides for Britt and Rivers, the rest of the Phenoms team put up a whopping 30 pts. Thats just not gonna cut it, and I'm sure Sussman will bounce back and do what is necessary to stay in the upper half of the league. As for Silk/Stein, Dwayne Bowe continues to nig off and very strong games out of Knowshon and MJD all but sealed the win for them. Silk/Stein hope to add to their winning streak next week against the Co-Conspirators. As for Sussman, he'll take on a struggling AaronBrooks2JoeHorn squad in hopes of putting this weeks loss behind him.
Johnson & Johnson vs Oh Africa
And the top teams in the power rankings continue to fall! After losing 2 games in a row, Africa knew he needed a win and it was going to be tough against the #1 power ranked team in league. Jeffrey had to be feeling pretty good going into this matchup with his teams consistently strong play. Well the dead baby fetuses in Africa rose to the action and had a big week. Jason's wrs, including TE, put up a combined 75 points with there impressive play. Colston finally decided to show up in a week in which Drew Brees sucked dick. The key has got to be the consistent play of TO, who had 19 pts this week. On the other hand, Jeffreys team didn't play horrible, but it just wasn't enough. Mike Williams looks good and put up 20 pts and Big Ben will continue to put up points. Even the Torain Train and Hillis look like they could be steady backs. Johnson & Johnson will get Megatron back next week as they take on Dri Squad which I believe could be the game of the week. Africa takes on Gani's Worst which should be a must win for Africa against a woeful team.
AP+PM=Playoffs100% vs Dri Squad
I think most of us thought that this matchup was going to be just a tad bit closer. It wasn't even like the Dri Squad had a bad a week. It was just the league high 177 pts put up my Wolff's team. The real question is, who didn't do good on his team? Everybody but Felix Jones, who had 8 pts, put up over 12 pts. Oh thats incredible. Led by Run DMC's 45 points which included 4 tds, AP+PM=Playoffs100% is looking good and could be in line for the top spot in this this weeks power rankings. Even without Peyton this week, Wolff still got 28 points out of Carson Palmer. Gregg Jennings, who is the realest nigga in madden, looks like he is back on track and AP as much of a sure thing for 20 pts every week as, um, Peyton Manning. And these 2 fuckers are on the same team. Lucky me this team is my rival and I get to play him twice this year. Fuckin eh. Adam, who had won 3 in a row prior to this week, can't get to down. Facing some byes, Frank Gore and Caddy had solid games. Matt Ryan had a great game aswell with 24 pts. With LdT coming back next week, Adam is going to need everything his teams got to take down a Johnson & Johnson team that is coming off a loss. As for Wolff, he'll have the pleasure of taking on the NY Jets who have lossed 6 in a row (lol).
NY Jets vs The Return of the Rash
With Hakeem Nicks having a huge game (again, cause he's amazing) putting up 27 points, NY Jets could have had a chance..... if Jason Witten just decided not to play. Unfortunately he did and he put up 20 pts. Gumnic has now lost a league worst 6 in a row, but the good news is he moved up to 10th place! Thomas Jones continues to play well and Santana Moss had a solid week, but NY Jets just doesn't seem to get enough out of his other players. I'm sorry to say that just as the Giants ended the Cowboys season last night, they also ended any chance of a Gumnic comeback once Tony Homo died. That is now the 5th qb the Giants have knocked out this season. NASTY. As for Heller's team, a big week out of Roddy White, who had 37 pts, all but ended this matchup early in the day. Matt Cassel stepped in for Schaub this week and put up a solid 16 pts as well. The Return of the Rash has had an up and down season and hopefully that trend continues as he takes on Bojangles next week. NY Jets has the pleasure of playing AP+PM=Playoffs100%, who just put up 177 pts. Good Luck Gum, I'm rooting for ya.
The Co-Conspirators vs Gani's Greats
First of all, I just wanted to remind everybody that the Rangers fucked up the Devils on Sunday. No big surprise there cause the Devils suck. Anyway, in the "nobody cares game of the week", the Co-Conspirators beat up on Gani's Greats. Michael Turner finally broke out for the Conspirators with 27 pts. Percy Harvin continues to impress as a very consistent WR and even Chad Johnson showed up and scored a td. As for Gani's Greats a big game out of Joe Flacco and Tennesse def, who continues to put up points as a def, just weren't enough to get Russell a win. Gani's Greats will travel to Africa and the Co-Conspirators will take on a red-hot Silk/Stein TBD.
ALOT went down this week. A bunch of big wins and equally big losses. The power rankings are expected to change quite a bit. Those and the awards will be posted sometime later today. And in light of the NBA season starting and our draft tonight (hopefully), here is Lebron being a fucking jackass...

Week 6 Review
As all you Yankees fans continue to chew your finger nails down to the skin (Russell, your nails are already gone so no harm done there) with the fate of the season on AJ's shoulders (for the record, I think AJ is gonna pitch a gem, idk why really, probably cause there the Yankees), lets talk some football. Wait, Cody Ross is amazing (Cliff Lee too, WOW). Anyway, I'm really starting to get used to this whole Giants winning every week thing, you Jets fans know what I mean right? A pair of the 2 hottest teams in the league continuing there winning ways and the Giants have a chance to end the Cowboys season (yea I know, its already over) next week on MNF. Jets escaped Denver with a nice victory as well. Now on to the only thing that seems to matter these days... Fantasy Football. Sunday = FFOB (Fantasy Football Over Bitches), I think we can all agree there. And without further ado... Your week 6 review... BOOM
Silk/Stein TBA vs AaronBrooks2JoeHorn
I'm really hoping next week somehow Gabe's team doesn't end up as the headlining matchup (maybe cause I play him) cause it seems every week his matchup finds away to be decided on MNF. Last night, Gabe definitely knew he was in trouble, with MJD needing just about 7 points for Silk/Stein to win it. Speaking with Gabe prior the game, he only had one hope "Die MJD Die", I believe is what he said. Until about 5 minutes ago, I definitely figured Gabe got beat pretty good (probably cause unlike the million other people, I was watching Cliff Lee dominate the Yanks). Then I saw he lost by 0.7 pts. Tough loss Gabe I was rooting for ya. It's easy to look at Gabes team and see what coulda been. A start of Derrek Mason or a start from NE def, or even maybe 1 point out of both Shiancoe or Chicago Def (both ended with 0... ew). But the squad just couldn't get it done. A solid day out of Garcon for Silk/Stein TBA was about the whole good outing on there team. I mean, Brady and Charles had abuot 11 points each, but even without their whole team showing up, they got the W. Thats now 3 wins in a row by the franchise that is still yet to change there name (I dont get it). They hope to continue there winning ways against the Fantasy Phenom (LOL). As for Gabe, like I said earlier, he'll hope to steal a win from Mr. Bojangles next week.
Oh Africa vs AP+PM=Playoffs100%
We'll start off this review with a nice highlight of DeSean Jackson dying...
THAT WAS AWESOME. Man fuck the Eagles. Anyway, with the way Wolff's team has been going, you woulda thought just like DeSean Jackson, AP+PM=EatButt100% would go down and continue their losing ways. Well fortunately before the death of D-Jax, he put up 2 quick scum TDs. Also Gregg Jennings, who is the MOST REALEST NIGGA IN MADDEN, finally broke out on the scene with a big week. The biggest news here could be the loss of the most valuable player in the league, Antonio Gates. Felix and AP chimed in with solid games, so all it took was a decent night from a pissed off Peyton Manning and Wolff would get off the shnide. Well, Peyton did what everyone thought he would and unfortunately for Africa, it was enough to win the matchup. Africa can't get too upset, even with 2 straight losses, his team continues to put up points every week. Ray Rice looks like 1st round form and Bradshaw continues to run all over teams. Orton also continues to put up consistently solid weeks, but Africa has got to be hoping they don't take too many goal line snaps away and give em to Gods child himself, Tim Teblow. Next week Africa takes on red hot Johnson & Johnson conglomerate. As for Wolff, he'll take on another red hot team, the Dri Squad.
Dri Squad vs The Return of the Rash
These 2 teams have been battling. The rash has had an up and down season, while the Dri Squad has been HOT. Welp, those trends continued as the Dri Squad won his 3rd matchup in a row. This is not a team you want to be playing right now (I know believe me). With some solid depth, like Pierre, Matty Ice, and Forsett, his team could be built for the long hall. The team appears to be clicking, with solid weeks out of his 2 rbs, Frank Gore and LdT. LdT has looked phenominal. It sucks for Greene owners, but for Jets fans its a beautiful thing having a 2 headed beast running game (Just ask us Giants fans, Super Bowl cough cough). Roy Williams even showed up and did his gay little hook em horns celebration and played leap frog with Miles Austin. As for Heller, Matt Forte continues to be putting up solid numbers week to week and finally Matt Schaub showed up and put up 20 pts. But with poor weeks out of Best and Bush, it just wasn't enough. If he had started Deon Branch, he would have got the win. If only it was that easy. Next week Heller will take on the coldest team in the league, NY Jets. As for Dri, he'll face off against Wolff, witch is sure to be a big/close matchup.
Johnson & Johnson vs The Co-Conspirators
I've been telling you guys for weeks now, this Johnson & Johnson team is NOT who you want to play right now. With the most points in the league by roughly 40, his team did not disappoint this week. Jeffrey welcomed Ben Rapelsberger back with open arms and he answer by putting up 20 points. He wasn't the only 1 to break out with over 20 points, as did Megatron, CJ2K, and the Torain Train. Even without Maclin, who put up 31 points on his bench, Jeff was able to beat a hot Co-Conspirator squad by 40 points. Hot damn. Great call to start Megatron and Torain, who both had monster games. CJ2K's numbers are a bit scum, with his td and yards coming in garbage time. Even though Malcolm Floyd got hurt, it won't stop Johnson & Johnson. Now he'll just have to start Maclin, lol. As for the the Co-Conspirators, Drew Brees had a great week and so did Mike Wallace. Unfortunately, Wallace's success also helped Big Ben on the opposite side. With Michael Burner and Ronnie Brown struggling, this team could use some work. They'll take on Gani's Greats and hope to avoid a disappointment. As for Jeffrey, he'll hop on the ship and travel to Africa.
Mr. Bojangles vs NY Jets
Bojangles is back babyyyy. After 2 disappointing weeks in a row, Mr. Bojangles finally snapped out of against NY Jets. All but 2 players on his team put up over 10 points as he survived Gumnic's scary and dangerous team. Actually thats a lie. NY Jets is now the coldest team in the league having lost 5 games in a row. Man he must have been on top of the world when he was 1-0. Even with solid weeks out of Tony "I've been saying it for years he's not good" Homo and a great start out of Marshawn Lynch, the rest of the team couldn't pick it up for NY Jets. Gumnic still has some solid players like Nicks and Wayne who will put up points in weeks to come. But if Shonn Greene doesn't start getting some points, he could be in trouble. As for Bojangles, he made a last second decision to start Big Daddy Jacobs over the Law Firm Ben-Jarvis Green Ellis and Associates and it was a good one. Big Daddy had 2 scores and Marshall added 40 receptions. Hell, even Steven Jackson scored a td. Bojangles team is looking good and he'll look for another win against AaronBrooks2JoeHorn. Gumnic hopes to get his first win in years against The Return of the Rash.
Gani's Greats vs The Fantasy Phenom
If anybody wanted a good laugh they could have just looked at Russell's team early in the week. You would have noticed that Russell had 0 running backs to start, all had byes. So it should be no surprise to see that his running backs this week put up a combined 1.8 points. Its a shame because the rest of his team did pretty good. Andre had a big game as did Joe Flaco, and Tennessee Def (what???). But it just wasn't enough to take down the #1 team in the league. The Phenom had solid play out of almost everybody on his team. Led by the Foster Home who once again put up over 20 points. Mendenhall stepped up and Crabtree has been playing very good. The Fantasy Phenom has to be feeling good about his team. He's got great depth and if Arian Foster continues to be the number 1 player in the league, this team will be hard to beat. But next week he faces off in a very interesting matchup against a hot Silk/Stein squad. As for Gani's Greats, they have a bye... wait no, they play the Co-Conspirators in the "Nobody Cares about Devils hockey" matchup.
The league is getting more and more interesting each week as teams continue to make moves and try and solidify a spot at the top of the rankings. Power Rankings and awards will be posted later tonight or tomorrow. To end things here, and in the light of Midnight Madness (yes college bball is almost here), I leave you all with a short video of the NC State bball team straight niggin off last weekend at there first practice.
Silk/Stein TBA vs AaronBrooks2JoeHorn
I'm really hoping next week somehow Gabe's team doesn't end up as the headlining matchup (maybe cause I play him) cause it seems every week his matchup finds away to be decided on MNF.

Week 5 Review
Another week of dominance for the Giants and Jets and another week of MNF comebacks...
AaronBrooks2JoeHorn vs Gani's Greats
I know, I know, I know... you guys are probably asking yourselves "Why in the world would I start off with a battle of 2 of the worse teams in the league?" Well for the 2nd week in a row Gabe has found himself in a comeback win, this time, on the wrong end. Gani's Greats, without a win, has been itching for a week like this where he could beat up on Gabe's squad. But needing only 5 points out of Shiancoe, Russell's fate was in the hands of a TE. In a last ditch effort, Brett Favre tried to rally his team and with a 20yd rec by Shiancoe, Gabe could almost taste victory. Unfortunately Brett Favre's penis got in the way and Gabe lost by less than 1 point. lol. Gabe finally got big weeks out of Brandon Jackson and Steve Smith, but with only .6, yes, .6 points out of Tim Lowtower, AaronBrooks2JoeHorn couldn't hold on. For the first time all year there are some positive things, not many, to discuss about Gani's Greats. Benson finally broke out and Zach Miller continues to impress. With Andre Johnson continuing to get healthy, maybe there is a chance for Russell's team. Then again, probably not. It does not get any easier for Gani's Greats as they take on the Fantasy Phenom in the battle of the Evil Empire. Gabe faces off against an up and coming Silk/Stein TBA team.
The Co-Conspirators vs AP+PM=Playoffs100%
In another close matchup, this game once again came down to MNF. It was J-E-T-S vs Minnesota. Down about 6 points, the Co-Conspirators needed a solid night out of Jets Def and Braylon, but at the same time Wolff needed a decent day out of Minnesota Def and AP. Jeremy had to be feeling confident, but on the final drive of the game, his hopes were diminished. A Jets pick 6 clinched the win for Frank (Steve is yet to be seen/heard from in FF). A text from Jeremy after the game went something like this "I want to kill myself". Gates continues to impress for Wolff and the increasing workload for Felix Jones has got to have Wolff feeling alright. But a season ending injury to Mark Clayton, who was off to a great start, could hurt his chances. As for the Co-Conspirators, who are trying to prove they are not the most poorly run organization, would have lost to any other team this week, but fortunately for them they played a Wolff. Even with a .8 pt performance out of Mike Bell, Jets defense carried his team to the victory. Next week, the Co-Conspirators take on a hot Johnson & Johnson squad, while AP+PM=NotLookingLikePlayoffs100% travels to Africa.
Fantasy Phenom vs Johnson & Johnson
In the battle of maybe the 2 best teams in the league, this matchup sure did not live up to the hype. Jeff beat Sussman by almost 60 points in a good ol fashioned ass kicking. Malcolm Flloyd put up a whopping 31 points and CJ2K bounced back with a 25 points performance. But maybe the start of the week has to go to Shaun Hill who put up 22 points. Great bye-week start there. As for Sussman, fellow Wolfpack Philip Rivers continues his dominance and Crabtree and Fitz got the job done. Unfortunately, an injury to Finley could hurt the Fantasy Phenom for the next few weeks. Its safe to say that Foster will bounce back nicely, a game next week against Gani's Greats might just be what the doctor ordered. Johnson & Johnson hopes to continue his success against a hot Co-Conspirator team.
The Return of the Rash vs Oh Africa
This was easily the highest scoring matchup of the week. It sucks that somebody had to be on the losing end of this one, and that just happened to be Africa. Even with a poor outing out of Matt Schaub, Heller was still able to shit out double digit scorers all over Jason's face. Led by Matt Forte's 32 point performance, Heller put up nearly 150 points. With Randy Moss and Roddy White as his Wr's I don't think Heller's rash is going anywhere. On the other hand, Jason can't be to upset over this loss. He still put up 125 points even with both his wr's putting up a combined 7 points. Ray Rice appears to be back and if he continues to get goal line carries, he will be as valuable as he was when he was drafted and TO continues to dominate too. Next week Africa plays Wolff in what will most certainly be a heated matchup. As for Heller, he will take on a Dri-Squad who has been continuing to impress.
Dri Squad vs NY Jets
In another ass-kicking, the Dri Squad took down NY Jets by nearly 40 points. You would think that with the name NY Jets, that maybe Gumnic's team would be playing good, but unfortunately he has the opposite record of the REAL NY Jets. Romo had a great week for Gumnic, but he is still a fag and the Cowboys suck. Idk what that has to do with anything, I just felt like saying it. Gumnic will need to get better play out of Thomas Jones and Jonathan Stewart if he wants to climb back up in the rankings. As for the Dri Squad, there just isn't much wrong to say here. His team continues to impress and this week was no different. If Hakeem "I'm the best wr in the league" Nicks and Brandon Lloyd Christmas continue to put up a combined 60 points, how could you beat this team? And with LdT continuing to dominate, Adam has himself a very solid team. Watch out for the Dri Squad folks, just like I said about Johnson & Johnson a few weeks back, this team could be a darkhorse. Adam will play another hot team in the Return of the Rash. As for NY Jets, they take on another team that is headed for the depths in Mr. Bojangles.
Mr. Bojangles vs Silk/Stein TBA
Another disappointing week for Mr. Bojangles. With both starting WR's on bye (Welker and Marshall) he needed Dez Bryant and Manningham to step up. And for the 2nd week in a row they didn't. Even with 20 point performances out of McCoy and Eli (finally), his wr's put up a combined 3.7 points, including 0 from Manningham who in his 2 starts for Bojangles has put up a whopping 0 points. As for Silk/Stein, they still havent changed there names, but they win their 2nd in a row. Even without Brady, McNabb was able to put up 17 points. Miles Austin went off again with 27 points and for the 2nd week in a row, Bojangles gets destroyed by the opposing Def. Philly Def put up 18 points which all but ended Bojangles come back attempt. Silk/Stein may be able to get another win when they face off against AaronBrooks2JoeHorn next week. As for Bojangles, he MUST bounce back against a desperate NY Jets team.
Power Rankings and Weekly Awards will be posted at some point later today....

Fantasy Basketball
I figured since nobody has done it that I'd make the fantasy basketball league. Obviously money, stats, and draft are all negotiable. This should be a good time, so join when you guys get the chance.

Original League: Week 4 Review
What A Fuckin' Week....
A lot of big matchups this week in our league as well as some classic Monday night finishes. Some teams continue to impress while other continue to disappoint. Even some (cough gabe cough) could be gaining some false hope.
The story of the week has to be Defenses with New England, Baltimore, and Gmen defenses all putting up over 23 points. Anytime your defense puts up that many points, your team should be looking good, right? Another trend is the continuous strong play out of late round/pick-up running backs like Arian Foster, LdT, and Peyton "I'm still a redneck" Hillis. A lastly, just a note... Antonio Gates might be the most valuable player in the league with the consistent amount of points he puts up at a position where other TE's will be lucky to put up 20 pts in a week over a whole season. Call me crazy, but if Gates continues to play the way he has, he has to be a 2nd or 3rd round pick next year. Without further ado, here are your week 4 results:
Johnson & Johnson vs AaronBrooks2JoeHorn
I know, I know. You guys are all saying the same thing: Why the fuck are we starting off with this matchup? There's no way that Gabe could have won down nearly 40 pts against a surging Johnson & Johnson squad, right? I mean Slick started Shiancoe who had a bye this week. AWWWWW YOU IDIOT! Well the fantasy gods answered Gabe's prayers because he completed the biggest comeback of the season. With 29 pts out of Pats Def and a surprise 18 pts out of Ricky "I smoke more pot than Mike" Williams on Monday night to take down Jeff's squad. Jeff had to be thinking this was a lock, especially with Dan Carpenter locked in to get atleast 10 pts. Unfortunately for Jeff he only got 2. Jeffrey knew things could get interesting when Mike Vick went down. Even with solid weeks out of Dallas and Peyton (I think its safe to say Jeff has the most country team in the league), Jeff couldn't take down an 0-3 Gabe squad. He can't be too mad as Big Ben returns next week and a solid performance out of Ryan Torain showed some hope. It gets no easier for Jeff as he has to take on the Fantasy Phenom next week. As for Gabe, he has to be thrilled to get his first win, even with 5 players putting up less than 5 pts. The false hope may continue as he has to take on the most disappointing team in the league: Gani's Greats. As long as Gabe doesnt start Ricky and Hines Ward who both have byes next week, Gabe could be on the comeback.
The Co-Conspirators vs TheReturn OfThe Rash
There couldn't possibly be another Monday night comeback, could there? Though not as big of a comeback as Gabe's, Frank and Steve's was just as impressive. Down about 5 pts the Co-Conspirators had Ronnie Brown left, but unfortunately Heller had Randy Moss. So Heller was going to hold-on, right? Randy Moss said "Nah Bitch" to Heller and there was another week 4 miracle win. Randy Moss put up 0 pts for Heller's team almost instantly ending any chance Heller had for a win. He shouldn't be too mad with nice weeks coming out of Roddy White and Schaub. But with Ryan Matthews possibly getting more carries, this could end Tolbert's run as a solid starter. There is some hope with Michael Bush possibly stepping in to start for the Raiders but that is nothing but a lock. Heller travels to Africa to face off in an "I go to Penn State still and you don't LOL" battle. As for the pourly run Co-Conspirator squad, it appears Steve has no idea what has been going on. But a win is a win. Braylon continues to impress with Sanchez playing like a possessed Mexican. It does not get an easier as they have to face off against AP+PM=Fag100% who has got to be upset with his performance this past week.
Fantasy Phenom vs AP+PM=Playoffs100%
Going into Week 4, this was definitely the matchup to watch for the upcoming week. The top 2 teams in the league squared off and the matchup lived up to the expectations. It started off looking really good for Wolff. Antonio Gates obviously didn't disappoint with nearly a 30 pt day. Even Kenneth Darby scored a td! And with Peyton being, well, Peyton Manning, it was looking good for AP+PM=ILose100%. I believe it was during halftime of the 4 o'clock games when we stepped out to smoke a bogue. I believe the quote went something like this "Wow it feels good to know that I've won already". Once the fantasy gods heard that it was allllllll over for him. I had the enjoyment of watching him while his team collapsed. It looked as if Arian Foster, the number 1 ranked player in the league, was not going to play and then BOOM an 85 yd td. Then Run DMC, possibly Wolff's best kept secret, pulls his hammy. Then just as a slim ray of hope Wolff needed Peyton to throw a TD.... just not to Austin Collie who Sussman had. Well guess who scored? Austin Collie. My friends and I just watched as Jeremy was sulking and was clearly upset. Atleast the Giants won LOL. As for Sussman's team, he is the last undefeated team and hopes to continue to pull away. With another big week out of Rivers, Foster, Mendenhall, and Finley, this team isn't not going anywhere. AP+PM=Vagina100% hopes to bounce back against the poorly run Co-Conspirators. As for the Fantasy Phenom, he faces Johnson & Johnson which is might be the matchup of the upcoming week.
Oh Africa vs NY Jets
Matt Gumnic and the NY Jets set off to travel to Africa in hopes of getting to .500. Unfortunately, slavery continues to thrive and Africa came out to play. Gumnic needed a 30 pt night out of his kicker Gostkowski, which um didn't happen LOL. NY Jets can't be too happy especially with big games out of Reggie Wayne and Frank Gore. Even Jonathan Stewart had 14 pts (WTF?). As for Africa, I think Jason might have made the start of the week in TO, who put up a whopping 33 points. Kyle Orton continues to establish himself as a must start every week in Denver's pass heavy offense. Jason has to be worried about Bradshaws availability next week aswell as Ray Rice who still has some lingering problems. Sitting at 3-1 and with Colston waiting to go off and Holmes coming back next week, Africa is on the rise. Africa will face off against The Return of the Rash in a battle of Nittny Lions. As for NY Jets, he'll face off against a streaking Dri Squad team.
Dri Squad vs Mr. Bojangles
What a disappointing week. After starting the season off 3-0 and facing off against a Dri Squad team with several byes, Bojangles thought he had it in the bag. With Pierre Thomas out, Adam needed to make a change and he made the right one in starting both LdT and Shonn. LdT continues to prove he is a top starting rb in the league with his near 30 point performance. With Shonn putting up 11 himself, the Dri Squad got exactly what he was hoping out of his Rbs. The nail in the coffin had to be the league best 29 point performance out of Chargers def. All I have to say to that is... really? Even with 1.5 points out of Moss and Murphy combined, Adam still held on. At 12:59 Bojangles decided to sit Steven Jackson who was questionable and start Mario Manningham. All you need to know here is that Manningham got 0 pts. Though it wouldn't have matter anyway (thank god), this was a very poor coaches decision. Now that McCoy has some fucked up ribs and Eli is continuing to play like My Ass Anderson, it appears Bojangles has his a tough spot. Hopefully he can bounce back against Silk/Stein TBA. As for Dri Squad, they take on NY Jets in what will be a must win for Gumnic.
Silk/Stein TBA vs Gani's Greats
Another week goes by and Silk/Stein TBA is still yet to change their name. In one of the most un-anticipated matcups in the history of fantasy sports, two winless teams faceoff in the battle for false hope. Surprisingly, Silk/Stein's team actually had a great week. It took MJD 4 weeks but he finally showed up with 25 pts. Eddie Royal and Keller continue to impress as well. Maybe this team can actually turn it around if these guys continue to put up decent numbers. As for Gani;s Greats, I really don't have much to say. This is the only team that is 0-4. You would think after what I wrote last week that Gani might not start Mike Sims-Walker. Welp, he did. And as for Jay Cutler. I think most of you know how I feel about him and he showed just how good he was this week against a stellar Giants def. Cutler put up a whopping -2 pts. Russell gets to face Gabe next week in another un-anticipated matchup. Silk/Stein will face a Bojangles team who could be headed in the wrong direction.

AP+PM=Vagina100% hopes to bounce back against the poorly run Co-Conspirators. As for the Fantasy Phenom, he faces Johnson & Johnson which is might be the matchup of the upcoming week.
Oh Africa vs NY Jets
Matt Gumnic and the NY Jets set off to travel to Africa in hopes of getting to .500. Unfortunately, slavery continues to thrive and Africa came out to play. Gumnic needed a 30 pt night out of his kicker Gostkowski, which um didn't happen LOL. NY Jets can't be too happy especially with big games out of Reggie Wayne and Frank Gore. Even Jonathan Stewart had 14 pts (WTF?). As for Africa, I think Jason might have made the start of the week in TO, who put up a whopping 33 points. Kyle Orton continues to establish himself as a must start every week in Denver's pass heavy offense. Jason has to be worried about Bradshaws availability next week aswell as Ray Rice who still has some lingering problems. Sitting at 3-1 and with Colston waiting to go off and Holmes coming back next week, Africa is on the rise. Africa will face off against The Return of the Rash in a battle of Nittny Lions. As for NY Jets, he'll face off against a streaking Dri Squad team.
Dri Squad vs Mr. Bojangles
What a disappointing week. After starting the season off 3-0 and facing off against a Dri Squad team with several byes, Bojangles thought he had it in the bag. With Pierre Thomas out, Adam needed to make a change and he made the right one in starting both LdT and Shonn. LdT continues to prove he is a top starting rb in the league with his near 30 point performance. With Shonn putting up 11 himself, the Dri Squad got exactly what he was hoping out of his Rbs. The nail in the coffin had to be the league best 29 point performance out of Chargers def. All I have to say to that is... really? Even with 1.5 points out of Moss and Murphy combined, Adam still held on. At 12:59 Bojangles decided to sit Steven Jackson who was questionable and start Mario Manningham. All you need to know here is that Manningham got 0 pts. Though it wouldn't have matter anyway (thank god), this was a very poor coaches decision. Now that McCoy has some fucked up ribs and Eli is continuing to play like My Ass Anderson, it appears Bojangles has his a tough spot. Hopefully he can bounce back against Silk/Stein TBA. As for Dri Squad, they take on NY Jets in what will be a must win for Gumnic.
Silk/Stein TBA vs Gani's Greats
Another week goes by and Silk/Stein TBA is still yet to change their name. In one of the most un-anticipated matcups in the history of fantasy sports, two winless teams faceoff in the battle for false hope. Surprisingly, Silk/Stein's team actually had a great week. It took MJD 4 weeks but he finally showed up with 25 pts. Eddie Royal and Keller continue to impress as well. Maybe this team can actually turn it around if these guys continue to put up decent numbers. As for Gani;s Greats, I really don't have much to say. This is the only team that is 0-4. You would think after what I wrote last week that Gani might not start Mike Sims-Walker. Welp, he did. And as for Jay Cutler. I think most of you know how I feel about him and he showed just how good he was this week against a stellar Giants def. Cutler put up a whopping -2 pts. Russell gets to face Gabe next week in another un-anticipated matchup. Silk/Stein will face a Bojangles team who could be headed in the wrong direction.

What the fuck is this?
Hey Guys
I'm sure you guys are like what the hell is the point of this? Well I was thinking and brainstorming good ideas on how to get everyone involved. You might think this is kinda gay, but then just think about how much we all follow our fantasy teams: baseball, football, and yes soon to be basketball. Why not make it a little interesting. I'm going to give everyone access to be able to post on the blog. Whether you want to post about a matchup, trades, trash talk, or whatever. If someone wants to do what I do, but for the auction league, they can do that. You can even post videos talking shit or anything. It really doesn't matter. The message boards in our league are trash, this could be a good place to tell everyone something. Anyway, if you think its retarded we don't have to do it. I just thought it would add some fun and excitement and get every involved in the leagues. Welp, I guess I'll get on the results from the past week in our $100 league.
