Well, to the one or two of you who read this blog, I may have seemed oddly silent about the fantasy football season.\u00a0 And there is a good reason for it:\u00a0 my team sucks!\u00a0 I’m not quite at the bottom of the league (that spot is reserved for the guy who had Vick and dumped him as soon as word of the dog fighting came out).\u00a0 But, I’m very near there and could easily end up at the bottom the way things are going.<\/p>\n
It all comes down to keepers.\u00a0 We play in a league where we get to keep certain players from one year to the next.\u00a0 My keepers appeared strong.\u00a0 I was ranked number one in our preseason poll.\u00a0 But, that is why they play the games.\u00a0 Among my keepers I have Larry Johnson and Shaun Alexander, both of whom haven’t done so well after receiving monster contracts.\u00a0 While not suffering from the typical Madden curse, Vince Young might as well have been injured for\u00a0 how well he has been playing.\u00a0 Larry Fitzgerald?\u00a0 If he had some consistency at QB and a guy who was healthy, maybe he could do some damage.<\/p>\n
Even the guys I drafted have not done well.\u00a0 Travis Henry?\u00a0 First he’s banged up and he’s likely soon to be suspended.<\/p>\n
My bright spots are Peyton Manning (he’s not tearing up the league like Brady (damn the Patriots!\u00a0 My brother, who is leading the league, has both Brady and Moss… I hate the Patriots, so much so that I even rooted for the Cowboys.\u00a0 I feel dirty.) and TJ\u00a0 Houshmandzadeh.\u00a0 I have a couple of other nice surprises, but typically they are too inconsistent to guarantee a start and they typically have their great day on those where I don’t start them.<\/span><\/p>\n The bright spot for the season?\u00a0 Well, even though I don’t have him, the season that Adrian Peterson is having is just awesome!\u00a0 Think of how good the Vikes might be if they had a decent QB.\u00a0 Peterson is tearing up the field even when everyone knows the Vikes can’t throw.\u00a0 The future looks good for Vikings fans.\u00a0 See, there is always a bright spot, if you look hard enough.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Well, to the one or two of you who read this blog, I may have seemed oddly silent about the fantasy football season.\u00a0 And there is a good reason for it:\u00a0 my team sucks!\u00a0 I’m not quite at the bottom of the league (that spot is reserved for the guy who had Vick and dumped … Continue reading Fantasy woes…<\/span>
