Around SBN: Indy 500: 'Greatest Spectacle In Racing' Set For Sunday

BCB Week 4 Fantasy Football Preview/Open Thread

The MLB Scheduling gods screwed us today.  Because the Eagles have a game in Philly in the same area as the Phillies ballpark, we are forced to DVR the Packer game so we can watch the Brewers game in its entirety.  I feel slighted, and will be writing Bud to express my dual citizenship of both Brewer and Packer fan nation, and how I shouldn't have to use the greatest invention since air conditioning.  Anyway, let's preview.  It'll be brief like last week, except where I feel commentary is necessary.

BREAKING NEWS: MARQUES COLSTON IS PLAYING

Star-divide

BCB Swansons

Hyatt's You had me at Meat Tornado v. MichaelM's Josh Bidwell is 1 testy punter (Michael -23)- Santonio will only get 3?  Sure espin...

Zorakathura's I wanna use your lovie tonight v. TwoShoesMagooze (Magooze -25)- I would say this line was completely ridiculous if Zora wasn't starting a SF backup RB (be sure to make sure Gore is inactive) and a hurt Beanie Wells.

JEO's Come On Hakeem v. BrewTownBoozer's I Just Called To Say Fuck You (boozer -5)- That line skyrockets if Chris Johnson can't produce again, which he won't.

Officer Jim Lahey's King of the Rats v. MrLeam's Put Something Offensive Here (Leam -13)- I'm calling for the upset here soley because Jim benched his Carolina RB. A smart move will pay off.

TAPmoney's Clay with My Balls v. AndrewHeidke's Orange Crush (TAP -37)- Hey, want to overcome a receiving corps led by Djax in a down year? TAP is putting on a clinic on how to do that, with 3 of the top 4 scoring RBs in fantasy.  

Nullacct's Suh Mack Hawk v. DoubleB440s Tramon Eileen (B440 -5)- Nullact has to choose a NYJ RB to go with and hope he can get something from his flex.  

BCB Kriegers

Hyatt's Cutler's Pottery Barn Gift Receipt v. icecreamman's Ice Cold Bruschis (Icecreamman -12)- Tough call for me this week.  Do I go with AJ Green where I know they'll need to throw the ball a ton or Brandon Lloyd where Denver plans to use Tebow a lot more. This decision will win or lose me the week. Oh, and that Rivers/Vick thing.  BTW, anyone want Rivers or Vick for a WR?  Send me offers

RyanSmith's Jay Cutler's kneegina v. Tcyoung And That's How You Get Grants (Ryan -10)- This game comes down to CJ2K v. Beanie.  

Tepo6688's Using Your Head w/ James Harrison v. Fiesta's Afterlife Aquatic w. Bin Laden (Tepo -11)- Tepo traderaped me in hindsight getting Mendenhall off me for Vick.  Tepo's team could really take off if I'm wrong about Djax.

PJPaulus' Armageddon Day v. Masondolo's Dexter's Viking Adventure (PJ -11)- Mason has too good of a team in my estimation to be 1-2.  Pj;s team is too good to be winless.  One of these teams will turn it around, and the other will be in a big hole.  PJ needs this more though.

Jarlbartar's Mississippi Dongslingers v. Rendezvous' All The Bacon and Eggs You Have (Vous -16)- for Jarl, Frank Gore is playing, but not starting.  That's why the line is as it is, but it should be a higher scoring matchup.

Noahj's Kuhn Tang Klan ANTFW v. Drzden's Mendenhall's OBL Fan Club (drzden -4)- just a hunch on this.  PSSSSSTTT... Noah... If you start Devery Henderson over Mark Ingram, you will win.

BCB Archers

Hyatt's Cromartie's Foster Kid Emporium v. TexWestern's Rock Me Abbrederis (Hyatt -8)- This is my best team, although it only matters if Arian comes through.  Tex has a tough squad, and Colston is back hurting Lance Moore's production.

Trippingandy's Gary Glitter's U-16 v. shmita91's Earnest Goes To Kampman (shmit -18)- Andy is starting Deangelo.  That's why he'll lose.

golfallday's Gilbert Brown's Manssierre v. Yar Nivek's I WILL DESTROY HER (Yar -5)- Just about everything Kevin does cracks me up, including strating Erik Decker over Brandon Lloyd.  Golf has a good shot, but I'm pretty sure he'd be better off if he started McCluster over one of his receivers.  Just a hunch I have.

Meiz's Hyatt's Wife and My Kids v. Cheezconqueso's I wanna Rex You Up (Cheez -5)- The reason Meiz is down is his flex position.  Nate Burleson will cost you wins.

Saltire's Pippa Middleton's Hypnotic A$$ v. LosinCatmansLove's Day Drinkin with Mike Vrabel (Push)- Saltire came back to earth last week, and is now even money with catman's 0-3 squad.  Injuries suck sometimes.

JP's Indianapolis Steakhouse v. TheBrouhaha's Drop it Like it's hot ft. James Jones (Brouhaha -1)- if the Brouhaha could get a 2nd rb, he'd be dangerous.  

Enjoy the early games, the first hour of the packer game, and then the night game tonight.

HaHa

I was hoping I’d hear from you. A tough loss there, but at least it wasn’t the last play of the game like last week for yours truly. Good luck to you.

Dan Bailey

Picking up where he left off-
Nothing yet from Danario Alexander, waiting for Victor Cruz- hopefully one of them can prove they are a better option than Sidney Rice.

Also, Jay Cutler with 1 point so far...

Alright, I just need Joseph Addai to suck balls tomorrow night.

Gronkowski – if you weren’t filling in for an injured Gates, I’d be pretty mad at you. If I started you instead of Gates because you’d been hot this week it might be a different story. But Morbo hopes Gates will be cured by next week, or else a Robotic Santa Claus is going to shoot somebody who’s been very naughty.

Yeah, I was wrong on that

as well as the Djax thing (this week) and both my choices for the Kriegers game were incorrect.

"That's not a weird stat. Rickie is a run-scorer," Yost said. "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter," Yost told reporters. "See, you guys have no concept. He's a run-scorer. So there's nothing weird about it. That's what he does."

And the Decker/Lloyd thing.

The first rule of fantasy football is that Hyatt’s predictions are always wrong.

by Yar Nivek on Oct 3, 2011 11:39 AM CDT up reply actions  

yep, slightly off with that

but Lloyd represented himself well. I was only 5 points off there, where I was 14 points off on Djax and 12 points off on the Rivers/Vick thing. So yes, still wrong, but not as wrong. If you started Lloyd, you weren’t killed.

wow, way off on that one.

yeah, you shouldn’t listen to me. I’m relying on Joe Addai to make two mediocre teams go 4-0.

And if he does have a good game,

My team will be 1-3 even though I have the (third?) most points in the league.

I wasn't tryin to rub it in your face.

Really don’t think anyone could have saw that. Pretty excited for it though, because my (10 year old) sister has him on her team in my other league, and she’s beating her opp. by over 100.

I may have traded one injury for another

Hopefully Mendy’s quad injury doesn’t linger.

If Joseph Addai doesn't get 5 more points

he can eat a full bag of dicks that are behind the bus station.

We are 2-2, we could just as easily be 0-4. All praise to Michael Turner.
