Week Seven Recap

Sorry for the dearth of posts of late, work has been kicking my tail; lots of travel. And unfortunately, there does not appear to be an end in sight to the madness. I’m in NO right now, and am heading the Gulfport for the next couple of days, then back to Ohio for [...]

Week Five after 1pm

Saint 30, Locas 17
As noted before, there wasn’t much early action in this game. Saint might be in some trouble later on though as both their RBs were active and McGahee and DeAngelo only accounted for 10 points. These games are easier to talk about when stuff actually happens and in this one, [...]

Scrotums = Epic Fail

Poor Benson.

Don’t ya just love fantasy football on a Monday night?

At halftime on Monday night, four teams find themselves within one point of winning or losing. And while I keep statistics on a whole LOT of stuff, I do not have any historical data on this, but it might actually be the first time that something like this has occurred.
As of now, the Scrotums [...]

Week 4 Sunday night

Dark Saint 103, Steal 100
Unless Rivers throws a couple of INTs, it’s safe to call this one for Dark Saint as Steal is finished for the week. The assumed win gets Saint to 2-2 and drops defending champ Steal to 1-3. Much of the credit for the win goes to D/ST 49ers, who [...]

Week 4 at 4pm

Dark Saint 67, Steal 91
Good day for Steal’s 1pm guys, especially RBs Addai and Slaton, who combined for 50 points. You’ll win a lot of games with output like that. Saint was only able to answer with 18 points from McGahee and Julius Jones. Schaub had a quiet 14 points for Steal; [...]

Week 4 early games at the half

Dark Saint 17, Steal 51
Steal looks strong coming out of the gate with Steve Slaton leading the scoring with 20. Much quieter for the Saint as they’ve got five players going and only 17 points to show for it.
Nation 26, Cows 27
Darn close one here as these two undefeated teams face off. Who [...]

1000 views for the month of September

This means next to nothing to anyone here but me, but I thought I’d share that the blog has had over 1000 page views during the month of September. This has never happened before, not by a long shot.
We’ve been using the blog format for over two years now and I can tell you [...]
