Posted by on August 23, 2013 · Leave a Comment 

We love inspirational speeches. There’s no question about it. From the time we first grab a glove to hit the diamond, buckle a chinstrap or sit down in the classroom, we’re looking to be inspired. Coaches, teachers and parents work to find the proper words to elevate our performance and keep us on the path […]

Cheering In The Press Box? Dempster Plunks Alex Rodriguez

Posted by on August 20, 2013 · Leave a Comment 

Early Sunday evening, I was attending to my long-honored tradition of the “naptastrophe.” My Sunday morning FOX Sports Radio show necessitates the early alarm, thereby putting me into a late-afternoon stupor that requires what some would consider a “long nap” and others would consider a “catastrophic” system failure. Thus, the “naptastrophy” was born. I digress. […]

2013 Q1 Strength Of Schedule Fantasy QBs Based on 2012 Data

Posted by on August 16, 2013 · Leave a Comment 

I know that this data set is based on imperfect numbers from the 2012 season. There’s going to be noise in the data.

FMC: That’s What We Love About Football – The Bostic Hit

Posted by on August 16, 2013 · Leave a Comment 

It’s quickly coming into focus. In 20 days, the National Football League will begin its 2013 regular season. Fans and fantasy owners dismiss the first two weeks of the preseason schedule, citing the lack of playing time for regulars and embracing the lazy talk show fodder of preseason ticket prices. The first jaw-dropping hit of […]

2012 Running Back Touch Leaders – Fantasy Football

Posted by on August 12, 2013 · Leave a Comment 

You fully expect Houston workhorse Arian Foster to appear among the leaders in the touch count summary. He led the league with 391 touches in 2012. “RoboBack” Adrian Peterson finished second with 388 touches, and the other members of the top nine are hardly a surprise. Most fans and fantasy owners would not recall the […]
