I have Willis McGahee and B-More's defense on my fantasy team, and needless to say both fucking disapointed me. Uuugguguhugfhghghggf

Seahawks didn't show me much against Tampa, but as usual I'm going to stick to my line that they are a way underrated team who will be in the Superbowl come time. I'm putting that down now.

there were a few upsets this week. texans made a decent showing againt indy, the bucs thrashed the saints (joey galloway still making it look easy) and the browns outscored the bengals.

the pats did well to use video-gate to self-motivate, not that they needed it, and they made LT tear up after the game

i loved how he said they had the pats "right where they want them" at half time. and how he said if they played the pats 10 times, they'd beat them 9. i guess the time before this one must not have counted because they were cheating at the time

how bout that favre, henry?? gotta hand it to him, he played a helluva game. the giants gave up like halfway through, but brett played a really solid game. and it wasnt all "game managing" that they've been talking about, he made a few beautiful long throws as well.

we should start doing picks every week. i did some by myself yesterday just to see how i did. not very well.

Cowboys dominate again. It's too easy for them.

Cowboys dominate again. It's too easy for them.

If it was the NFC, I could assemble a team of Modifier's that would be competetive. Call me Big Tuna.

But no, I like the Cowboy's. Problem is their recieving core is getting old. Glenn and Owens probably only have another 2-3 good years.

Oh and I was right about being wrong about Seattle. God fucking damnit. Whatever. GO HAWKS!

Good idea Pete. Here are my picks for week 3:

Miami > New York Jets
San Diego > Green Bay
Pittsburgh > San Fransisco
New England > Buffalo
Minnesota > Kansas City
Philadelphia > Detriot
Tampa Bay > St. Louis
Baltimore > Arizona
Indianapolis > Houston
Denver > Jacksonville
Cleveland > Oakland
Seattle > Cinncinati
Atlanta > Carolina
Washington > New York Giants (3-0 biiiitchessss)
Dallas > Chicago

Only real upset I'm predicting is ATL over Carolina. Some other more minor upsets in there, but I think Leftwich can put a spark into their offense. Plus, Carolina's defense is pretty weak this year, and besides Delomme to Smith I don't see what they bring to the table offensively either.

Does anyone play fantasy football? Here's my roster:

Jake Delomme
Torry Holt
TJ Houshermazedia
Shaun Alexander
Fred Taylor
Vernon Davis
Hines Ward
Randy Moss
Devery Henderson
David Martin
Matt Jones
Vince Young

Kicker: Jason Elam
Defense: Baltimore/Philadelphia

I really need another back to compliment Alexander, and right now I have a trade proposed that would give Hines Ward for Jamaal Lewis, because I'm already absolutely stacked as far as WR's go. I had McGahee as my 2nd back but traded him a three way deal that sent away Hasselbeck, McGahee and Vincent Jackson for Vince Young, Torry Holt, and Houshmanzander. I lost faith in McGahee after the first monday night game.

Favre for the pro bowl! he's gonna get the INT record, the TD record, (already has the WINs record!) and maybe total yardage record. The pack has a solid D this year, with a special teams that isn't a liability like the last 4-5 years. The only seemingly "weak" spot is the offense, which lit the giants up, on the ground and in the air. We'll have to wait and see if they are for real, but it looks like the bears are off to another stellar year! (sarcasm)

yeah well, the giants defense is garbage.

i want to give my picks now but i have to go to work. i'll do it later.

Pete's Picks Bitch!
0-0
Week 3

NY Jets > Miami
San Diego > Green Bay
Pittsburgh > San Francisco
New England > Buffalo
Minnesota > Kansas City
Detroit > Philadelphia
Tampa Bay > St. Louis
Baltimore > Arizona
Indianapolis > Houston
Jacksonville > Denver
Oakland > Cleveland
Seattle > Cinncinati
Carolina > Atlanta
Washington > NY Giants
Dallas > Chicago

i was really torn on the cowboys vs the bears. the bears have solid defense, but the cowboys have score 10 TDs so far this season, whereas the bears have 2 TDs, and rex grossman at the helm. most of my picks are pretty obvious, no real big suprises. i was tempted to give the packers the win against san diego, because brett favre has really been finding creative ways to win games so far, and i dont think thats something Norv Turner is ready for, but i think shawne merriman will have an easier time getting to favre with those younger guys up front than he did with the pats. anyway, i've given away enough of my secrets

i think posts with picks should never be edited, to keep them pure and sanctified, yeah?

Bears are getting fucked this Sunday by the 4-0 Packers.

...unless our O-line takes some roids or block for a change!

Either way i know it'll be fun to watch Favre get at least one more TD throw and Hester running TDs. Or knwing how inconsistent the Bears are they might dominate... might.

HG · Post by HG » 05 Oct 2007 05:20

ooooweeee pete and all the haters, howabout the packers? hmmm? can't wait to watch the game against the bears. Which qb will it be this week? Bring back Erik Kramer!

Yeah I gotta say, that was the most miraculous rally by a team ever. Nick Folk is just a straight up superhero.

Even when it was 13-24 I figured the Cowboys would come back and win it. Bills didn't put up a offensive TD all night. I just didn't expect for the Cowboy to have to work an onside kick in order to do so. Twice on Monday I concluded (Rather to my own disdain) that TO had lost them the game; first on the ball he couldn't pull down; second on the ball that came lose when trying to get in field goal range.

I was down 4-6 points in my fantasy leauge going into Monday night, with Tony Romo yet to play on the opposing team. If he would not have completed that first TD (The 2nd not counting because I had Crayton who caught it) then I would have made up my deficit in interceptions and fumble's alone. Alas, it was not to be.

wes welker is the shit. i dont think indy, chicago, green bay, or anyone else has what it takes to take down the pats.

HG · Post by HG » 14 Oct 2007 16:39

oh pete, just wait until the pats are knocked out in their first playoff game

Where the hell is the Bears D? And if anybody says injured I'm gonna... make idle threats.

Bears = Mediocre. Sad but true.

It's tough being a Pats fan living in Texas right now. I am laying low. Really low.

Pete - Brady finally has some receivers again, life is good.

Henry - Put your money where your mouth is. I'll even give you 3:2 odds.

Pats are on their 3rd string running back right now and have some other guys on the DL that are due to get back mid way through the season. They are only going to get better.

Dallas is still a good team.

HG · Post by HG » 15 Oct 2007 12:12

ah just wait. it is going to be wonderful. Even if the packers DON'T EVEN MAKE THE PLAYOFFS (doubtful! haha chicago and detroit? what a joke.) i will have a wonderful time watching brady get murdered in the divisional game.
