Week 11 Recap

How the mighty have fallen…

I suffer my first losing streak of the season with an embarrassing loss to Team Falese. I made this week an experiment week thinking it wouldn't matter either way and boy was I wrong. Congrats Team Falese. VA Bum Smashers had a tremendous come back on Monday night to beat Chocolate Starfish and keep himself in the playoff hunt. The Burg YUH8ME keeps on riding the Packers and beats Child Please. He's on a 5 game winning streak y'all. My Vick in a Box beat The Blackhole Black. Finally #imserious ThisYear beat Mike Vickless Sauce'n Ain't Easy. All the teams that had to win to keep hope alive won! This is going to be close.

I went 2-3 this week in my predictions, I am 27-23 on the season.

Theme For The Week

Don't Believe The Hype - Only 3 Teams have clinched playoff births: Ya Mom's House #Boom, The Burg YUH8ME, and My Vick in a Box. The final 3 spots are still up in the air and the final spot looks to be a serious toss up. 5 of y'all are 4-7. Every week counts.

C’mon Man:

Ya Mom's House #Boom… If I don't even touch my lineup from last week I easily beat Team Falese. That's the last time I try to get cute.

Back Pats:

Team Falese, #imserious ThisYear, and VA Bum Smashers - For keeping hope alive. Think the nickname for this group should be Obama's Boys/Girl lol.

The Burg YUH8ME - For picking up Chris Ogbonnaya (24.4 points).

Bold Predictions:

I gotta keep picking myself so Ya Mom's House #Boom over Child Please. VA Bum Smashers will beat his mother The Blackhole Black. The Packers may lose on Thursday and that means I'm picking Sacue'n Ain't Easy over The Burg YUH8ME. Chocolate Starfish will right the ship and beat My Vick in a Box, at least I hope so I can keep a grip on 1 of the 2 first round byes. Finally #imserious ThisYear will bury Team Falese.

Week 10 Recap

And I lose again…

I made a huge mistake and second guessed myself on playing Denarius Moore and it cost me, especially on a week where some of Sauce'n Ain't Easy's biggest contributors had terrible weeks… Child Please beat Chocolate Starfish thanks to the Bills getting smashed and Frank Gore going out with an injury early. VA Bum Smashers beat Team Falese, I have a few complaints about her roster but it wouldn't have mattered. In the closest matchup of the week and literally came down to the last touchdown scored by the packers The Blackhole Black beat #imserious ThisYear by 3 tenths of a point. Crazy. Last but certainly not least The Burg YUH8ME completes the sweep of My Vick in a Box and takes control of the Pimps division.

This is a BIG I repeat BIG week! If either Child Please or Chocolate Starfish win and any of the bottom 3; #imserious ThisYear,  VA Bum Smashers, and Team Falese; lose that team will be officially eliminated from the playoffs! Step your game up! Also at the top the 2 byes are still up for grabs.

C’mon Man:

Ya Mom's House #Boom… Should have played Denarius Moore, it doesn't help that he plays for my favorite team especially since I give #imserious ThisYear for sitting Jets players.

Back Pats:

VA Bum Smashers - Chris Johnson finally showed up!! Congrats on sticking with him.

The Burg YUH8ME - Laurent Robinson was key in your victory this week. Nice pick up.

Bold Predictions:

I'm gonna get it together over Team Falese. VA Bum Smashers will help keep his and his 3 lonely compadres in the playoff hunt and beat Chocolate Starfish. Child Please will knock The Burg YUH8ME off his short lived visit to the mountain top. My Vick in a Box will beat The Blackhole Black, a little late to be having so many byes ain't it…? and finally Sauce'n Aint Easy will beat #imserious ThisYear and leave him wishing his name was I'll be serious next year.

Week 9 Recap

My Vick in a Box comes tumbling down to earth… #BOOM

The epic battle between me and My Vick in a Box came down to the wire and thank the lord the Eagles didn't pull off that hook and latter at the end, 22 yards would have tied it. How the mighty have fallen. Sauce'n Ain't Easy beat up a beat down Team Falese, she really needs some of those injured players to come back and she needs to take some advice that is given when asked! The Blackhole Black beat Child Please who could have made one roster move and would have won the game. The Burg YUH8ME beat VA Bum Smashers pretty handily, gotta love them Packers. Last but not least, #imserious ThisYear ends his losing streak and Chocolate Starfish' winning streak.

This is an important week this week. A couple things are on the line this week, I could potentially clench at least the number 2 seed, record wise, with a win. VA Bum Smashers could pretty much eliminate himself from the playoffs with a loss. It looks like 5 or 6 wins is going to be the playoff threshold.

C’mon Man:

Two teams could have won with one roster move each!!!

Team Falese - DO NOT ask me for roster advice anymore. I recommended Reggie Bush and you played Knowshon Moreno and took the loss.

Child Please - You've been playing Julio Jones but this week you sat him and it had major consequences.

Back Pats:

Sauce'n Ain't Easy, The Blackhole Black, and The Burg YUH8ME have all been on winning streaks that have put them in striking distance for that number 2 seed and a first round bye. Keep it up.

Bold Predictions:

I will end Sauce'n Ain't Easy's winning streak this week, someone stop Forte please. Chocolate Starfish will right the ship and beat Child Please. VA Bum Smashers will beat Team Falese, or he's as good as his Eagles. I'm gonna go out on a limb and say The Burg YUH8ME will sweep My Vick in a Box this season and take the lead in that division. Finally #imserious ThisYear will beat The Blackhole Black, it's his birthday maybe the fantasy gods will give him a present.

Week 8 Recap

And the last of the unbeaten has fallen... Here we go.

Well what can I say? My matchup was over early. Chocolate Starfish whooped my ass. I always knew week 8 would be a problem and it was. Congrats to Chocolate Starfish, he's now on a 4 game winning streak and has jumped all the way to number 2 on the power rankings. Sauce'n Ain't Easy beat VA Bum Smashers with a RB and a K not in the lineup... more on this later. As Philly piled on the points and rushing yardage against Dallas Child Please' chances got slimmer, and in the end My Vick in a Box came away with the victory. The Burg YUH8ME beat #imserious ThisYear, but it started to get interesting with Malcom Floyd having an above average game on Monday night. In the last matchup The Blackhole Black beat Team Falese, nothing really interesting here.

For those of you keeping track I went 0-5 in my predictions this week... That makes me 20-15 on the season.

Sidenote: There were no trades this year! That might be a first.

C’mon Man:
VA Bum Smashers - Sauce'n Ain't Easy beat you without a Running Back and a Kicker. Your team needs some help playa.

#imserious ThisYear - There once was a Newton that had a major impact on this world. Maybe it's time you take a lesson from history.

Team Falese - You could have played Reggie Bush and only lost by 0.9 points. LOL.

Back Pats:
Chocolate Starfish - Buffalo's D? Really? I still can't believe it. Good job on the winning streak.

The Burg YUH8ME - Since you wanted to rub it in my face, yes you called me losing this week. Thanks for the jinx.

Bold Predictions:
I should really start waiting until after waivers clear to make these picks but oh well. I will rebound and beat My Vick in a Box this week.Sauce'n Ain't Easy should continue the trend of beating up on Team Falese. I'm going with Child Please over The Blackhole Black, sorry mom I know it's your birthday weekend and all. The Packers are back and that means I'm picking The Burg YUH8ME over VA Bum Smashers. Last but not least, I'm picking Chocolate Starfish over #imserious ThisYear because he's on a roll.

Week 6 Recap

Last year I started 0-7. This year I'm going for 7-0. Let's Get It!

I whooped #imserious ThisYear, nothing really to say there. Team Falese got back in it with a win over Sauce'n Ain't Easy, thanks a ton to Ahmad Bradshaw. My Vick in a Box held off The Blackhole Black, I can't lie I was rooting for Wes Welker to catch the game winning TD. Ha Ha. Child Please beat VA Bum Smashers in what turned out to be a laugher. Guess Trev has his priorities in line going with the potential jinx of the Redskins against his grounded Eagles and it worked out. We got terrible Rex (-2.7) with a new record low fantasy QB performance. And finally we have Chocolate Starfish getting on a roll with his win over The Burg YUH8ME. He is now securely in the playoff picture. I went 3-2 this week in my predictions and I am now 15-10 on the season.

C’mon Man:
There weren't very many bad moves this week but a couple teams standout.

VA Bum Smashers - I get it your real life team sucks, Your fantasy team isn't doing much better. Personal pride vs. a Monetary Prize...

The Blackhole Black - When is Darren Sproles a better option than Rashard Mendenhall? NEVER! Not to mention Jacoby Ford and Devin Hester having good games on your bench.

Back Pats:
Team Falese - Thanks for putting out a competitive lineup.
Chocolate Starfish - He's heating up y'all!

Bold Predictions:
For the family members, this is a rematch of week 1 matchups! For you other people, this is just another fantasy week.

Ya Mom's House #boom (Just because...), The Burg YUH8ME (because the Patriots are on a bye), #imserious ThisYear (no explanation, maybe I'll give him some much needed JuJu), Chocolate Starfish (because the Cowboys are playing the Rams), and Sauce'n Ain't Easy (I got a good feeling about Sanchez and Tomlinson, first game against San Diego since leaving, I'm just sayin)

Week 5 Recap

Another week, another W... Leggo!

And for the third week in a row my game came down to the wire, in fact it came down to the very last drive in the Monday night game. Good thing Cutler was tired of getting pounded. However, my game was not the only one that was dependent on the Monday night game. The matchup between The Blackhole Black and Child Please and the matchup between Chocolate Starfish and VA Bum Smashers did as well. Thanks to a big run by Best late in the game The Blackhole Black held off Child Please by .7 points! Wow! And thanks to a subpar Bears defensive performance Chocolate Starfish held off VA Bum Smashers to get his first W! I know how you feel man, took me until week 8 last year to get my first win. My Vick in a Box smashes Team Falese, the new Team Mauldin (y'all remember her?), who once again bared the burden of bad luck with her team, and The Burg YUH8ME beat #imserious ThisYear who proves to not be that serious after all. I went 3-2 with my predictions this week and that makes me 12-8 on the season.

C’mon Man:
Last week we asked the people if they would have sat Arian Foster. This week lets ask the people this, If you have a team with WRs who are struggling and you just so happen to pick up a good one in Free Agency would you sit that guy on the bench? No? An even better question, How many people not from Minnesota or Colorado have ever heard of Eric Decker? No one? Yeah that's what I thought. Child Please you lost the game because you left 29.5 points on your bench by not play Pierre Garcon and instead you got -0.4 points for being a homer. That's a big fat C'MON MAAAANNN!!! And not to mention Willis McGahee's 19.5 you also left on the bench.

Team Falese I'm putting you on here just because for the second week in a row your QB got negative points. I think this is a first in the history of fantasy sports. You should be proud. Also you've managed to go from top 5 power rankings to last place...

Back Pats:
Chocolate Starfish - You got that gorilla off your back. Nice job getting your first win.

Ya Mom's House #Boom - BGE had a big day and is the reason I won my matchup.

The Burg YUH8ME - Victor Cruz turned out to be a good pick up. Without him you lose your matchup.

The Blackhole Black - Jahvid Best. If the bears could have stopped him 8 yards short on any of his big runs Monday night you don't win your matchup. Nice performance.

My Vick in a Box - Your team is scoring alot of points every week.

Bold Predictions:
Ya Mom's House #Boom, Suace'n Ain't Easy, The Blackhole Black, Child Please, Chocolate Starfish

Fantasy Football Week 4 Recap

And what do you know… guess who's still undefeated!!!

And it was another nail biter weekend for me as it took until late in the 4th quarter of the Monday night game before I officially won my matchup this week. The other guy wasn't so lucky as My Vick in a Box lost his first game of the season to The Burg YUH8ME thanks to Aaron Rodgers' 4 passing td's and 2 rushing. All I can say is Karma's a Beotch! In the other match ups Team Falese handed VA Bum Smashers a win with some questionable roster decisions, #imserious ThisYear is back to losing as Child Please took advantage of a "questionable hamstring", and in my one lost prediction this week Sauce'n Ain't Easy beat The Blackhole Black thanks to Mike Vick finally showing up and the Patriots finding a running game. I was 4-1 this week in my predictions so that makes me 9-6 on the season. I'm getting better at this.

This week is going to be a little more difficult as teams start to have their bye weeks. Time to get creative with your acquisitions folks!

C’mon Man:

Team Falese - Whoever told you to pick up Chad Henne and to put him in the starting lineup slap them and defined them in real life. I could have got you -0.8 points! Had you left Kyle Orton in alone you would have only lost by 2 points. Had you not played sorry ass Denario Alexander and played almost anyone else on your bench you would have WON the game!!!

#imserious ThisYear - Had Team Falese not thoroughly eff up, you would have been on here all by your lonesome.  Let's ask the people. "Hey people would you definitely start Danny Woodhead and Mark Ingram over Arian Foster?" No? How about even after the training staff said he shouldn't have anymore hamstring problems? Still No? I thought so… Single handedly the reason why you lost the game.

Back Pats:

Child Please and VA Bum Smashers for walking into wins.

The Burg YUH8ME for Aaron Rodgers letting me shut up My Vick in a Box's mouth.

Sauce'n Ain't Easy for being loyal to Mike Vick.

Ya Mom's House #Boom for LeGarrette Blount making it a lil too interesting.

Bold Predictions:

Ya Mom's House #Boom, Chocolate Starfish gets his first win, #imserious ThisYear (if Arian Foster is in), Tom Brady and Wes Welker against the Jets… Child Please, and My Vick in a Box just because who knows what Team Falese will do next.
