Weekly fantasy rant.


Fantasy / Monday, September 11th, 2006

Mondays and Tuesdays are always better after a good fantasy weekend. Unfortunately for me, I had a pathetic weekend. Luckily for me, I had the Eagles game. But that’s not what this column is for. So I’ll start with the first game of the weekend with guys on my team. A guy; Chris Chambers. How did you drop that pass? It hit you in the hands in the endzone. It was the only good pass from Culpepper all night. You’re only gonna get a few of them a game, you gotta make that catch. Now for the biggest flop of the weekend? Jake Plummer. Man, oh, man, Jake. This year I decided to take players I didn’t like, hate even, if it would help me in fantasy. Don’t let it happen again. ESPN says it was because you were pressured most of the game because your line wasn’t doing too great for you, but don’t make me hate you anymore than I already do. Other than that, the rest of my team didn’t show up either, but no less than most of the players in the league. Some bombed, however most did alright, just didn’t find the endzone. However, big performances for top fantasy players were just few and far between on Sunday. I mean when Kevin Jones gets me more points than Sean Alexander woulda gotten me, there’s just not much to say. Only a few stars that should have, actually shone this weekend which just makes for a pretty boring fantasy weekend. I’m ready to fast forward to next week. My team just looks too good on paper to do what it did this weekend.

    Top 5 after week 1:

  1. Baltimore Ravens
  2. Donovan McNabb
  3. Kurt Warner
  4. Frank Gore
  5. Charlie Batch

Yeahhhh.
