OK, let's get right to it. You may sense some negativitly in a few of the notes, but hey, I'm 0-3! What do you want - joy and cheer? However, here are a couple of things I noticed after three weeks of NFL action:
* Brett Favre blows!
* Running backs that you pick up off the waiver wire were there for a reason (Tolbert was ok, but in the last two weeks I've done the fist pump when I've been awarded Brandon Jackson and Mike Tolbert. Their peformance wasn't fist pump worthy!)
* How about those new QBs? Bruce Gradkowski to Louis Murphy - you may hear that a lot! Jimmy Clausen looked a lot like Matt Moore...without the completions to Steve Smith! And Michael Vick - how did nobody see this coming in the preseason?
* How about those old guys? Santana Moss has an incredible day and Brandon Lloyd grabs another 169 yards worth of bullets thrown by Kyle Orton!
* Here's why you can't predict everything that's gonna happen on a Sunday. The Ravens had not given up a touchdown this year...and then they give up two - to Peyton Hillis, and 144 yards. The Steelers had not scored three touchdowns this year...and then Charlie Batch, their fourth stringer, throws for three today. C'mon!
* MJD blows! I like you better than Brett Favre, but can you please lead me to victory one day? We may just have this year's Matt Forte!
* There's a reason why you drafted Adrian Peterson, Chris Johnson and Darren McFadden 1-2-3 this year. Oh wait.....
* If you pick up a guy, start him, and he throws for 176 yards and 0 TD's. Then, after you drop him he has 250 with three....Or if you pick up a defense that gives up like 38 points and then, after you drop them, has 2 return TD's and 5 tournovers - IT MIGHT NOT BE YOUR YEAR! Thank you Matt Cassel and the Seattle Seahawks for showing me that!
* The Tampa Bay defense blows! (See Charlie Batch)
* I thought the Skins weren't that impressed with Portis, and I was right. The only thing I was wrong on was who they'd get to share with him. They just got Torain off the practice squad. Welcome back, Mike Shanahan, you are the devil!
* After about three weeks, you know when some of your picks have gone astray:
1) Randy Moss is not the bust of the year (see MJD). He will not be outside the Top 10 of fantasy receivers. Yep, I said that!
2) The New York Giants are not going to the Super Bowl! Said that too!
3) DeSean Jackson will be a Top 10 guy again. Yeah, I doubted him!
4) And LT will be better than Shonn Greene. Can't believe that one!
* How does Wacco for Boldin sound? I know I stole the whole "Wacco for Flaco" thing from the Fantasy Focus, but boy has he been good!
* Speaking of other podcasts, nice call by HackHype.com. They said that the Reggie Bush injury would positively affect Lance Moore. I thought they were crazy. Guess they were not! Check out HackHype on iTunes!
* Not only is Mike Singletary goofy, he's real bad! I know he swept the carpet after church at Willow Creek, but it rubs me the wrong way that he got that guy fired!
* It may be time for a Spelling Bee: Tony Moeaki (sp?) and BenJarvus Green-Elis (sp?) I don't know how to spell them, do you? You may need to on your next trip tothe Waiver Wire!
* If was nice of Miles Austin to give all his catches and touchdowns to Roy Williams this week. That's loving your neighbor as yourself!
* Reggie Wayne, when did you change your number to 17 and become caucasion?
* I was embarrased when I had a groin injury and had to get it checked out. The doctor was a lady I knew from church. Hope that doesn't happen to Steven Jackson!
* Way to go Kevin Kolb! You just had your NFL live taken from you, and there you were whoopin and whappin on the sideline, cheering on the team. Now, that's a guy who puts others in front of himself!
* For all that negative stuff I said, I'm sorry! And I'm in a much better mood - Brandon Marshall may have just got me win #1! Thanks to my daughter Grace! I asked her who to start out of Brandon Marshall and Malcolm Floyd. She said, "Not the one going against the Seahawks!" WhoooHoooo!
