Jones-Drew’s Knee Issue More Serious Than We Thought

Maurice Jones-Drew missed practice again on Wednesday, and Jaguars head coach Jack Del Rio is not optimistic about his chances of playing this Sunday when the Jaguars face the Texans. Now Tania Ganguli of the Florida Times-Union has written a story which addresses the potential that Jones-Drew would need to undergo knee surgery this off season to repair [...]

Studs, Duds and Fantasy Football–Week 16

A QB probably won you a championship this week or lost you one. Such is the disparity of life. Let’s review with a special QB-centric version of this week’s studs and duds. Best QB 34 points from Aaron Rodgers as he was returning from a concussion (bet you haven’t heard that line yet) and playing [...]

Studs, Duds and Fantasy Football–Week 15

It’s Monday, we’re in the fantasy playoffs; time to review. Top Performer At one point Mike Vick had 1 fantasy point in the 2nd quarter and things didn’t look like they were going the get any better. In fact, I was in a bar with a concerned Vick owner who was losing his mind. Here [...]

Start’em and Sit’em: Sunday’s early games

NO @ BAL This game has all the makings of being the game of the week. The Saints are on a 6 game win streak while the Ravens are fighting to get into the playoffs. The big thing that you need to know is that the Saints are going to put up points. The Ravens [...]

FF All-Matchup Team: Start These Guys in Week 15

So you survived Week 1 of the playoffs, eh? Or are you just in one of those off-putting leagues that first starts playoffs in Week 15? (Quick side note: I had to look up “off-putting” because I thought it was “off-pudding,” which in hindsight makes no sense. Why would pudding be disconcerting? Everybody loves pudding. [...]

Start’em and Sit’em: Sunday’s early games

Cleveland at Buffalo Start: Peyton Hillis–He’s a given. Though the Dolphins figured out how to slow him down last week, the Bills really pose no defensive threat except Paul Posluszny. Ryan Fitzpatrick–I also really like Ryan Fitzpatrick in this matchup. He has Lee Evans and Steve Johnson to throw to and he has hit Johnson [...]

A Plan B for the New York Yankees

For the record, I’m in the camp of people who view Cliff Lee as Plan A, B, C, D, E and F.  I think the New York Yankees should do whatever it takes to get Lee.  If that means offering more money and/or more years than anybody else is willing to offer, so be it.  [...]

Start ‘em/Sit ‘em Grades–Week 10

Alright, fans of the “Start These Guys, Sit Those Dudes” post, we’re going to do a post each week grading our picks. That’s right grading. No, not like middle school with A+’s and stuff like that. But, you could think of it that way if you want. Consider a ‘10’ to be an A+ then [...]

Studs, Duds and Fantasy Football–Week 10

One more week of NFL action is in the books, and one more week of confusion continues. Steelers were the best team, then they get handled by the Patriots, the Bears were (and I think still are) inept, and then they handle the disappointing Vikings; as I’ve said in practically every intro to this weekly [...]

Start These Guys and Sit Those Dudes: Week 10

With every team having at least half the season under their belt, you pretty much know what you’re going to get. But, injuries are becoming a factor more so than ever after nine weeks of hardcore practice and games. Plus, with teams like the Green Bay Packers, New Orleans Saints and San Diego Chargers on [...]
