PPFFL Week 3 Recap
Written by B-Dub, Tuesday September 28 2010
After three weeks in the Playerpress.com writers fantasy football league we still have three undefeated teams and three winless teams. While that may not be so unusual, it is a bit strange that there is an undefeated team and a winless team in each of the three divisions.
With that useless bit of information out of the way let's take a look at the games from Week 3.
Restore the Roar 122.97 - Cleveland Steamers 91.17
Hey at least one team with a Lions logo is winning these days. RTR may share a logo with their owner Lance's favorite Motown team, but the comparisons stop there. They're riding the Peyton Manning express so far this season and even held on to win this matchup in spite of the injury to Jahvid Best. The defending Champs are now on a two-game losing streak and B-Dub is not happy. There are rumors that he will trade for Donovan McNabb since he was on the Steamers bench last year. How ironic that B-Dub's good luck charm is a player he can't stand?
Virginia Beach Bums 130.94 - The Pulverizer 109.13
Christopher's Bums kicked sand in the face of Travis' winless Pulverizers and then soaked in the rays of a victory. Both owners left some serious points on the bench, but at least the Bums had "Yo" Adrian Peterson to bail him out with 37 points. Meanwhile the Pulverizers aren't getting enough out of Brett Favre so far this season. Wait did he just retire? Nevermind, he just unretired again while I wrote that last sentence anyway.
Da Bares 109.50 - The Raider 103.27
Commissioner Gordon, I mean Commissioner Nolan sent up the Brady Signal and Tom came through with a big game for Da Bares. The league is said to be looking into what he's got on his belt during games. Cassius' Raiders were lucky that Drew Brees showed up because the rest of the team must have missed the bus to the game. Brees was the only player other than the kicker and defense to reach double digits. That's not going to win any games for him. Maybe Cassius should consider a name change. I seem to remember that working out well for another guy by that name.
The Bulljive Allstars 124.02 - SayCheezHeadz 103.61
I would say that I feel sorry for the spelling-challenged Ant and his SayCheezHeadz, but he talked so much smack during the draft about how great CJ Sproles was going to be that any insults would just seem cruel at this point. Sproles' 2.60 points this week give him a total of 13.10 for the year. Yeah, genius first round pick there buddy. And they got almost half of their points from Michael Vick with 51.55. Enjoy it now because Vick will tear your heart out eventually. Bulljive have a Cowboys star as their logo so I am required by law to hate them. (Full disclosure: I'm an Eagles fan) I'm sure team owner Benjamin is a good guy in spite of this obvious character flaw. He must have been dropped on his head repeatedly as a child to grow up a stinkin Cowboys fan.
Tennessee Titan 136.20 - Winston Cups 113.13
The Winston Cups are named for Todd's co-owner, Eric Winston of the Houston Texans. That explains the questionable decision to draft QB Matt Schaub in the first round and their guy didn't deliver in fantasy or in real life this week. What's worse Eric, losing to the Cowboys or losing to a Titans team, with Tony Romo as their QB, that obviously hasn't done a single thing in this league since he signed up? Yeah, I'm calling you out Christopher. Why join if you're going to do nothing all year? Not everybody is going to play dead like the Winston Cups here. And by the way Eric, you promised me you would block better so my guy Owen Daniels could get out an catch a few passes. You're killing me Dude. Also killing me? The fact that the Titans are undefeated without even trying. How sad.
Samurai Ballah's 125.15 - Manchester Destroyers 90.06
The other owner who signed up and has done nothing since then is the Destroyers' Travis. Hey Travis you know what not paying attention in a fantasy league does? It "destroys" the competitive balance of the league. How about joining the party sometime? You have Kevin Kolb as your starting QB even though he got benched by his NFL team and Knowshon Moreno in at RB even though he's out hurt. Pathetic. The Ballah's accepted the gift to remain undefeated. They don't deserve any credit beyond their owner drafting Phillip Rivers. OK, Sam also gets credit for using his name as part of his creative team name. Oh now I feel dirty for complimenting a NY Giants fan. I need a shower.

Flash, my fantasy team started out slow last year and that ended with a Championship. CC you should be suspended from the fantasy football league for even drafting Braylon Edwards. At the very least you should have been given a breathalizer after that pick.

Yeah, I left Braylon Edwards on the bench, why didn't he get suspended after getting a DUI? He had to sit for just one quarter? I bet the Dolphins are not too pleased about that....

Hey B-Dub you dickhead, er, I mean, Vickhead, you weren't yapping about Schaub when he put up 48 freakin' points last week... The Cups would have kicked your sorry ass this week.
