Take a look at this 3d image on Google maps of Cleveland Browns Ststidum... Or first energy. 

To be the Champ

Or to be the chump.....

This season has beat me up. Mentally and emotionally. I've racked up countless hours of studing calculating and crunching the scenarios. Possible out comes, projects, drafting early drafting late, to trade or not to hold this player ect. You get the point. My record is hurting right now but the team is stacked. They need to play like they are supposed to. After a great season and playoffs I might have over thought my team. But hey, the one truth I have learned out of all of this just like the guys in the mags or on the web predicting the statistics and possible season performers and rankings are wrong at times and so am I. You can't predict FFL lots of Talent/Risk-Reward/Cost of Players/Luck/more luck all mixed into one. But there have been some suprised and great picks and keeps this year.  Hopefully the rest of the season we hear some cannons going off. It's been too long since we have gotten to celebrate with a bottle o rum. 

Breaking News

Traders or Idlers

That is the question?

So far I would have to give it to the idlers for having some pretty competitive teams but as far as knock out punches the traders have em. It is going to be a fun ride to see which conference can reign supreme this season. 

Traders Always Baby!!!!!!! 

Week 7 Preview

A lot of football left boys and girls. But so far my teams that have put up and made us shut up. Wolverines is off to a great start behind a stacked line up and DMurray. Cheeseheads stacking up wins as well, they made a move at the draft and have had a good season so far. 

Hoyer Horses and Dukes will battle for the division here on out. Aces Wild, RSMP have to show us what they are made of to win out their divisions. Other teams looking great Boonies, Cams Cats, Beavers and Peyton. 

I feel it has to be said Loose Cannons fall to 2-4 still in hunt for Division lead but the next weeks ahead will show us if they can turn the ship around or go down sinking on the backs of the best team on paper. 

This weeks games to watch:

Sleeping Giants v Justwin

Annihilators v Road Warriors

Honorable mention: 

Guidos v Loose Cannons

I hate to say it but I think guidos teams going to get the best of the Cannons. We fall to 2-5 but so does RSMP so technically I'm not out of it yet. Best case scenario he loses I win Cannons(3-4) take lease in division over RSMP(2-5).....that is the BEST case scenario.

Is it just me?

I feel that myfantasyleague.com needs to update the scores faster. It seems like at times they can lag on updates and scores. Might just be me but do you feel the same way? How do we collectively as a league send the same feedback. 

Week 6 Rankings

Yes, Coming soon as well....

Week 6 Preview

Coming soon....

BAMF T-Rich

There you go buddy. Wish he woulda panned out like I hoped. I salute you tonight as my player that coulda.

Who is your player that coulda, woulda, shoulda? 

Adrian Peterson

Is he allowed to be on the IR? Just looked at bylaws and saw that if a player is suspended he's not allowed to be on the IR. Just wanted to clarify the ruling on this matter? 

Trade

Boondock Saints gave up Forsett, Justin BAL RB;Floyd, Michael ARI WR;Johnson, Calvin DET WR; Year 2015 Round 6 Draft Pick from Outlaws;Year 2015 Round 7 Draft Pick from Boondock Saints Outlaws gave up Bryant, Dez DAL WR;Hopkins, DeAndre HOU WR; Year 2015 Round 2 Draft Pick from Outlaws;Year 2015 Round 4 Draft Pick from Outlaws

Not bad boys. Calvin Johnson although not performing and injured is the top WR. Dez matches with him being a top 5 WR then the other players match up. I feel if cj2k can bounce back outlaws got a slightly better deal but as of now they needed some roster depth and added it in this trade. But the saints were able to add to a good roster with Dez and Hopkins. We shall see what happens later this season. 

Surprise Surprise.

Who is your surprise franchise so far. Mine is Dukes. I had a feeling going into this season they would compete and put forth a tough season but they are putting together a great beginning to this season. Also Wolverines they were my pick to be a great team in the Traders but they too are killing it so far. But I ask you readers. Who is your pick of the litter. 

Trades continued...

• Outlaws gave up Spiller, C.J. BUF RB;Smith, Steve BAL WR
• Cams Cats gave upJennings, Rashad NYG RB;Smith, Torrey BAL WR

Smith for Smith both threats in Baltimore offense.  Spiller and Jennings also equal value. I feel Jennings has a slight upside being in a horrible Giants offense. 

• Boondock Saints gave upHarvin, Percy SEA WR
• Millrats gave upGarcon, Pierre WAS WR

Boonies and Millrats made a fair deal. Harvin if used correctly could be big for MIllrats. Garçon is a more consistent option for Boonies and the Redskins offense. 

Trade

I know I'm a day late and dollar short. 

But here's the trade between Annis and Warriors. I feel that both sides received value. No team took a L on this one. Good trade boys. 

• Annihilators gave up Morris, Alfred WAS RB;Taliaferro, Lorenzo BAL RB; Year 2015 Round 4 Draft Pick from ROAD WARRIORS
• ROAD WARRIORS gave up Hill, Jeremy CIN RB;Watkins, Sammy BUF WR; Year 2015 Round 1 Draft Pick from Dukes;Year 2016 Round 3 Draft Pick from ROAD WARRIORS

Are You Ready for some Football?

Sunday and Monday? I am. 

Seems like Thursday has been horrible football as of late. Hopefully we see some  better football this weekend.  

Week 5 Preview

Week 5 is here! This week both games of the week come from the Idlers Conference. The honorable mention is a Traders match up. Again I say it anything is possible it's fantasy football. I guess that means the players atop the pre-season rankings could finally perform like they should. New rankings will be released as well just been a little busy this week they will be out before Sunday kickoff. But I have to say sorry Griffs you won't be at the top of the Idlers no matter what MyFantasyLeague suggests. Good luck to all owners this week. Oh and let's sound off with the Cannons this week!!!! 

Games of the Week:

Cheeseheads v Annihilators 

Hoyer Horses v Dukes

Honorable Mention:

Boondock Saints v Wolverines  

Veteran or Rookie?

Proven Talent or Long term Possibility.

When reading that what comes to mind? I should say first that if you are an occasional fantasy footballer this league is not for you, setting your line up week 1 then forgetting about it til week 6 means this league is not for you. I believe that the first 3 years  of ownership your in build mode. Have to do research and find the studs and rookies all three years. Once you pass this point your now ready to roll and develope a strategy that works for your liking. But through these years it leads back to my original question. Do you go for a rookie or a veteran. Scenario: the draft is 6 rounds deep you kept 6 so you have snagged 4 solid picks. Your next pick is probably a backup or a rookie. What do you do? Only reason I ask, is your first reaction to build for the future or try to get that mid-level RB2, WR2? I myself always when having starters for the season shoot for the moon with rooks where ever my pick falls. Some will snag the vets there to add that 8-10pt avg.

What to do?  I just like to hear your take on the question. Proven Talent or Long term Possibility?
