NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 15
If you are still alive in your fantasy playoffs, it’s most likely because you didn’t listen to me last week. But this week feels like a winner. Going into the semi-finals, the pressure increases so you need my help now more than ever. Let’s look at last week’s picks, keeping in mind that I was [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 14
For most fantasy leagues, week 14 marks the start of the playoffs. These three weeks bring with them added pressure. But with that pressure comes the chance for glory, and, more importantly, the chance to smack talk everyone in your league should you be victorious. Since we are officially in playoff mode, we’re going to [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 13: Who’s Time is it to Shine, Who Should Ride the Pine?
Ah, Thanksgiving. A time for us to reflect on all the things we are truly thankful for. This year I couldn’t help but think of all the things that football has given us while asking for so very little in return. Such as: 1. Giving us the suffix “-wise” which can be attached to any [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 12
Slumps are a funny thing. No one can say why they start or what exactly needs to be done to unslump oneself. Once in a slump, people will try nearly anything from facial hair to hypnosis to extricate themselves from it. I couldn’t say what exactly it was that got me into my current slump, [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 11
It takes a big man to admit when he’s wrong, and I am nothing if not big. Sure I could blame my poor performance last week on having to pick games three days early and not having all the information that I usually have, but I won’t. Instead I’ll take full responsibility for my actions. [...]

Here’s a look at last week’s picks. Time to Shine: QB Jeff Garcia, Tampa Bay: Garcia did everything but get the [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 8
Some moments in sports are simply too big to describe with mere words. Brett Favre throwing for 399 yards and four scores just hours after his father passed away. Tiger Woods winning the U.S. Open with a torn ACL. Sergey Bubka shattering the world record in the pole vault using what was later learned to [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 7
Week five was so bad for me, I had to take some time and regroup. I knew I could still pick fantasy starters, I just didn’t know that I wanted to. But now, after several days of soul searching, I make my Favrian return to fantasy football. And since the bosses were good enough to [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 5: Who’s Time is it to Shine, Who Should Ride the Pine?
Matt Berry was true to his word and didn’t grade his picks from last week. I did. And since there is no proof to the contrary, I’m going to say that I dominated him last week. He couldn’t touch my picks as far as I know. Take that Mr. Roto! By the way, Berry recommends [...]
