Out of the sandbox

 Went 2-3 last week to make our terrible season record 10-15. Season 12 of course started in a big way yesterday with three games, and some managers already have their work cut out for them if they want to come back and win this week, so let's get right to it.  8-3 Santino (135.99) vs. 8-3 Derek (123.03)  Bambino got off to a great start last night with almost 17 points from his defense. That definitely gives him an edge, however it is not over yet. Mr. Hall could have a big game this afternoon and get Derek right back into. This is a very big matchup of course as it could be a semi final preview. Santino wins this round 130-125.  5-6 The Commish (148.77) vs. 7-4 Tiricooooooooo (127.81)  Greg got off to a fast start yesterday as well as his projections went up 12 points from before yesterday's action. Young Matthew does have his defense going today with Miami, so he could get some points back, however, our fearless leader makes sure he is always in the playoffs,...

 A tough 2-3 week last week making us a disappointing 8-12 on the season. Trades are in full swing, but really all ten teams are still alive for the playoffs. So let's get right to it.  8-2 Hootie World Tour (131.03) vs. 7-3 King Derek (116.54)  This one gets starterd tonight as both teams have players going. Chris and Jason should get off to a lead with Andrews and Burrow going this evening while Derek just has Flowers. The world tour also has a new WR#1 in Mr. Hill and that will be the difference between these two. It will be close but Hootie can not be stopped. Hootie wins 134-125. 8-2 Santino (120.36) vs. 4-6 The Commish (129.21) 3 players going this evening as well in this matchup. G-Money has not done as well as he has hopped since his trade but he is still in the playoffs as of now and will definitely be a threat to anyone he may face. Including Bambino. I think this will be the closest matchup of the week, but The man is charge pays me to pick him, so Greg wins 12...

 Last week was a little better, going 3-2, rising our short season record to 6-9. We have a big #1 vs #2 match up this week so let’s get right to it.  8-1 Bambino Not Screwed at all (115.26) vs 7-2 Hootie’s never ending world tour (130.61)  I fell for it once, not again. Santino clearly is not losing again, he is a team of destiny! He has the Best QB ever, a top 3 RB, plus two other stud RBs, plus he has the only Bengal wide out currently practicing or even bringing their jerseys with them to practice. Throw that all together and the great matchup between Cuban Gooding Jr and Darius Rucker is won by Santino, 125-116. This matchup does surprisingly start this evening during the you can’t pay me enough to watch Bears vs Panthers game.  6-3 Derek where are you? (112.69) vs. 3-6 The Fighting DP’s (102.67)  DP hit hard with bye weeks this week, that plus the injuries he has dealt with he had no players on his bench he could play this week, so I guess his team is out ...

 A terrible 1-4 week last week, going to a disappointing 3-7 so far on the season. Congratulations to Sloney on his first win of the season, making every team within 2 games of the playoffs. So with that being said, let’s get to it. Big week of football kicks off this evening and we do have some great games in the NFL, and then maybe a few not so great.  6-2 Hootie’s 2023 World Tour (113.09) vs. 3-5 Mrs. Potts (113.46)  Basically a coin flip, 50-50 for this one. Should be a great matchup throughout. Neither team has anyone going tonight but the Sunday morning game, surprisingly we are giving Germany the game of the weekend, 9:30am will be very important in this one. After 5 total players going across the pond there are still much to be decided and there will be even after the Sunday afternoon games with Hootie having 3 players going Sunday and Monday night. So clearly DP will have the lead and then just have to wait, and hope that the Dolphins don’t make him cry, and scor...
