I hope that this isn&#8217;t a trend, that I can update the blog just a bit more regularly, but life often gets in the way. I&#8217;ll do what I can.<\/p>\n<p>The NFL season is already almost half over and the battle for the championship of the NFL-Idaho fantasy football league is in ernest. I currently hold the number one ranking in the league, but it has been a difficult struggle. My stars haven&#8217;t produced as they often have in the past. Peyton Manning started the season a little slow, but is fortunately now on fire. The same is true of Larry Johnson. He really hasn&#8217;t played like last season, though the last two games have seen him return to form. I&#8217;ve had two important injuries to Shaun Alexander, my star RB, and Larry Fitzgerald. Though, in Larry&#8217;s case, I&#8217;m not sure I would get much from him anyways because of the inept Cardinal offense.<\/p>\n<p>I have had some good fortune though. Even when I&#8217;ve not performed as well as hoped, my opponent for the week has typically been even worse, giving me a 8-0 head-to-head record. And, while Juggernuts has scored more points overall, I&#8217;ve still got a better overall record than he does. But, he is right behind me, ready to take the lead at any moment.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve also had some pleasant surprises in Drew Brees, the Minnesota Defense (excluding last week&#8217;s horrid performance), and Darrel Jackson. But, that&#8217;s been countered by Chad Johnson&#8217;s disappointing year.<\/p>\n<p>Overall, though, I&#8217;m sitting pretty. I think there are trades afoot to try to overcome my first place ranking. We&#8217;ll see if the enemy is successful.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s been a while since I last posted anything and, as you&#8217;ll see, there are a lot of new posts today.
