DeAngelo Didn’t Make The Trip: Week 8 Injuries
As kickoffs approach for the early games, there are few sure things in terms of injuries and omissions for Week 8. We know that DeAngelo Williams (foot) didn’t make the trip to St. Louis. – Brett Favre practiced at the end of the week, so he’ll take the field versus New England (you didn’t think […]

London Town: Alex Smith Out Versus Broncos. Who Steps Under Center?
I had to pick a song reference that wasn’t “London Calling.” I love the tune, but it’s borderline played out. The 49ers ruled Alex Smith out of Sunday’s game against the Broncos overseas. Smith sustained a separated shoulder in Week 7 against the Panthers and will be unavailable for the game. David Carr entered the […]
Monday Night Horror: I Like to Hurt People
If you go channel-surfing through your cable listings, you’ll stumble across the AMC Fearfest. You can find the best and worst (some of those sequels were terrible, no matter how much you love the genre or the “star”) of the horror world. I propose that they chop up the first six weeks of the NFL […]

UFC 121: Lesnar Falls to Velasquez
The eyes of the sporting world were divided on Saturday. College football ruled the early part of the day. No. 1 in the BCS dropped and several other top teams fell. Iowa State beat a confusing Texas team. My Northwestern team was felled once again by the Michigan State Spartans after building a 17-0 lead. […]
Game 6 Finale: Was That Enrico Palazzo?
So, the World Series is now set. Following some brilliant bullpen work, the Giants vanquished the Phillies to advance. Jonathan Sanchez fizzled as the Game 6 starter, but the bullpen shut the door. Of course, the bearded one was there in the end. Sure, he provided San Francisco fans and the FOX viewing audience some […]
Gates, Cooley, Jackson Headline Week 6 Injuries
We know that the weekly injury report reads like the Encyclopedia Britannica by the end of Week 6. The number of injuries affecting top-tier receiving targets grew by at least three on Sunday. We’ll receive complete information later this week once the test results come back. For now, add Gates, Cooley and Jackson to the […]
FMC: Ben Roethlisberger, QB, PIT
It’s time to honor this weekend’s “Fantasy Man-Crush” for heroics on the field of play. There are many worthy candidates out of Sunday’s action, but I would be remiss if I failed to acknowledge Ben Roethlisberger’s return to action against the Browns. * Again, we’re looking in-between the white lines for fantasy heroism here. We’ll […]

Week 6 Targets: New Blood
OK, so two of the usual suspects rank at the head of the pack. But, to see the likes of Mike Williams, Deion Branch and Brandon Pettigrew among the target leaders tells you one thing. It’s a new world order. 1. Brandon Marshall, MIA – 17 2. Mike Williams, SEA – 15 3. Andre Johnson, […]

Straight Up Week 6 Picks: Is It Really a Knockout Game?

FMC Week 5: Kyle Orton
I want to give a nod to Baltimore running Ray Rice, who took on a huge workload for the victorious Ravens. Rice piled up a sizable touch count and scored twice against a strong Denver run defense to help the Ravens coast to victory. However, I have to look at this from the Fantasy angle. […]
The Separation of Fantasy and Reality: QBs Gunning
As I watched the final seconds of the Raiders’ thrilling (confusing, bewildering ….) win over division rival San Diego, I noted the huge yardage total posted by Philip Rivers and started to delve through the game logs. I logged another notch on the dark side of the ledger when Alex Smith’s comeback effort against the […]
