PSA: DO NOT LET CHUCK GET BELL

Image
Ladies and gents tomorrow is DRAFT DAY. The day where the league starts before the league actually starts and the day that, say it with me: WE DO NOT LET CHUCK GET LEVEON BELL Seriously, don't do it. He drafted Bell last season and destroyed us all. He will do it again and destroy us all again. Chuckie has been up to dirty tricks already in an effort to make sure Bell is his once again. EXHIBIT A: Message to Nauch immediately after draft order was released. EXHIBIT B: Sources close to me say that Chuckie, before yesterday, did NOT want to enable draft pick trading. I can confirm this was his opinion two weeks ago when the draft results first released... So what changed? Well, let's look at the receipts News broke on the league chat yesterday that Nauch was narrowing down his draft choices, people immediately started speculating .. but the chat got jucier a few hours later: At 1:52PM, Nauch and Chuckie exchange some words about the draft Chucki...

2017 Recap and 2018 Storylines Part 2: Trash City

#5 Jose Ortiz a.k.a. Weege Last Season's Finish: 6-8, 5th Place Claim to Fame: One of the biggest Chuck conspiracy theorists, believes the league is rigged but still pays up every year to lose another season. May have Stockholom Syndrome issues. Plans to Use Fantasy Winnings on: A Tom Brady Jersey Recap: Unfortunately, the WR duo of Julio and Dez working came to an end the season Weege decided to try the experiment out. Outside of Jordan Reed, injuries never hurt his team but they never quite fired on all cylinders, especially down the stretch, going 1-7 in the final 8 weeks of the season. Weege needs to build a team with good chemistry but drafting Tom Brady after all the news of his beef with the front office will probably do the opposite to his fantasy locker room. BIGGEST STORYLINE: Weege has been one of the most anti-Chuck protesters of the league since its earliest existence. While I may be the free sports media trying to uncover the truth- Weege is the agent on...

2017 Season Recap and Biggest Storylines for Each Team Part 1 (Playoff Teams)

Image
Since we got two new entrants into the league and some of us have terrible issues remembering things from too much partying, I think some context would be awesome to get everyone up to speed on who are the heroes, villains,  jokes, beefs and colluders are. I'll be starting from the top of last season's standings down to the abyss. All photos are totally representative of what we look like now. #1 Johnathon J. Cassidy a.k.a the Commissioner a.k.a Cheatin' Chuck Last season's finish : (11-3), #1 Seed, Back2Back Champion Claim to fame : Has had as many fantasy championships as girlfriends in his career and is a true Boston sports fan despite never having lived there. Embraces the arrogant winning bastard stereotype to a T, will probably start cheering for Philly teams once Brady retires. Plans for Fantasy Winnings: A Supreme sticker for his toilet Recap: Chuckie's run to the championship was easy to see. The fact he drafted Lev Bell, Zeke, Gurley and Kar...

2018 Season Welcome!

Ladies and gentleman, the wait is over. After a long summer of trying to fill the void with World Cup, baseball and pretending Tiger Woods is back, our greatest escape from work, school and our girlfriends is back. It's time for another year of making a run for glory and, more importantly, taking down our commissioner and preventing him from pulling a Kobe and threepeating in our league, by any means necessary. You can only fight collusion with collusion. But anyways, in case you are one of the newbs here, yeah I enjoy doing fantasy sports journalism because I think fantasy is at its most fun when it's interactive and realistic. We already have a perennial winner everyone hates and a commissioner who everyone hates (same guy!), so why not also include some sports media to spin some takes and complain when your power ranking is as trash as your team. This is my third year writing a blog of some sorts and since I'm no longer in LA I figured its time to bring my ...
