I turned 41 years old today. I’m officially closer to 60 years old than I am to 20 years old. So it got me thinking about both things that people take for granted (vim and vigor of a teenager) to the things people overvalue (politicians). But to put this in a way that you might …
For Fantasy Sports nerds like myself, the month of August can be a double-edged sword. It’s a great time of year because Fantasy Baseball is in the home-stretch and Fantasy Football drafts have already started. But it’s also a time where what’s left of my brain cells get stretched pretty thin (especially when you consider …
Fanatics. That's what I like to refer to Fantasy Football owners that choose to play in leagues that use Individual Defensive Players (IDP). They are fanatics. So these 2012 IDP Rankings are really for them. But regular Fantasy Football owners can glean some things from these rankings too. It's easy to see that running backs …
How many more years do you think it will take for the Hallmark people, or if you're a rich dude, the Papyrus people, to figure out that a Fantasy Football draft is actually a holiday? And where do you celebrate such a holiday? Where does one go for the best Fantasy Football Draft party? Football …
There are different moments in your life when you have to exercise caution. You want to mitigate risk. You want what you pay for. Like when you buy seafood. You do your best to make sure you're buying fresh seafood, but if you buy shrimp out of some guy's trunk on the side of the …
This mock draft was held in the summer of 2012, but if you want a NEWER version, then check out our 1-Man, 5-Round, 2014 Fantasy Football Mock Draft that we did this year. The year is 2014. The revolution of the cyborgs has been averted and human civilization can return to rebuilding the canopy over …
For the past five or six months, we’ve been looking at generally the same rankings for Fantasy Football running backs. While the NFL Draft and free agency changed a few things, we still had a very good idea of what we thought the veterans were going to produce in 2012. Training camps have begun though, …
Athletes always talk about the “pop” they hear when they tear an ACL. I’d imagine it’s like hearing, “You’re fired!” from Donald Trump on The Apprentice, or “Honey, we need to talk,” from your significant other. You get that feeling in your stomach when, just for a split second, you sincerely believe your life is …
Sometimes it’s helpful to go back over the trades, transactions and injury news over the past few months, just to refresh our minds before getting ramped up for the Fantasy Football season. So here’s a quick review of the NFL offseason as training camps begin. Try not to sing the A-B-C song as you go …
A little over a decade ago, I had a “draft pick draft” with a bunch of other Fantasy Football writers. That’s right, we drafted Fantasy Football draft picks. RotoExperts.com’s Scott Engel, with CBSSports.com at the time, still mocks me for it when I go on his Sirius/XM Fantasy Football radio show. “Hey Gonos, I want …
The term “sleeper” signifies many things, including a hibernating bear, Uncle Gus after Thanksgiving, the nerdy chick that is a makeover away from hotness, and a player that could see significantly increased Fantasy value compared to last season, making him one of a few 2012 Fantasy sleepers. We’re going to talk about hot nerdy chicks! …
You knew it was too good to be true. Marshawn Lynch’s arrest on suspicion of a DUI Saturday just screwed up the first two rounds of Fantasy drafts – and training camps haven’t even started yet. A possible Marshawn Lynch suspension just threw a wrench in our midsummer Fantasy plans. I need a drink. Now …
