Baltimore Tools
Jew Bowl 4 starts the season again. And in the same way I did last
year, I’m going to spank Five. The hair is gone buddy – that move
did not work for Samson and it won’t work for you.
PICK: TOOLS
Nose vs
OC Beach Ballers
Scott’s on an impressive winning streak now, and I wouldn’t dare
fight fate. But if I was going to, it would be the man with the most air
miles in the league: Jarrett, who has also had an impressive run of
late (see his proposal in the ROFF Draft pictures?). As for the
teams, both have built a solid crew. Both teams might have the
best WR core in the league and both feature two star RB’s. This is
definitely the game I’ll be watching this week. And these two might
meet again: in the playoffs. Slight edge to Nose for Palmer in
Kansas City.
PICK: NOSE SNORTS SAND
Inching Worms vs
Shermtanks
No doubt we all are watching Sherman closely this year. As the first
ROFF Owner not named Brock to guarantee a playoff spot, Tanks
have a lot to prove and it all starts this week. How will he do without
Peyton Manning? Will he bounce back from a horrific season - and
if he doesn’t, how many people will be needed for the round-the-
clock suicide watch? Deay’s team is tan and rested, but he’s got a
lot of AARP members on the field - Harrison, Horn, James and
Ahman Green. I’m actually going to pull for the young bucks –
namely Parker, Tomlinson and Walker – and give this pick to the
Tanks.
PICK: MASHED WORMS
New Jersey Jacobins vs
Fighting Blue Crabs
One is married. One is engaged. Will Moore teach young Allocco
the ways of the married? To me, this will be a fun game. Crabs
welcome proven starters Manning, Ward and Johnson, while
Jacobins start starters that have things to prove – namely McNabb
and Moss. And were Jurevicius and Barber flukes last year? Will
Tiki go back to his old fumbling ways? It’s a tougher call when you
think McNabb gets an easy week 1 against Houston and then you
realize that Manning will want to show up baby bro on Monday
night. I have great feelings about the Crabs this year, but as an
early wedding present I’m giving the edge to the Jacobins (you only
get one of those)
PICK: JERSEY IS FOR LOVERS – NOT
CRABS
Dorfman
Mr. Two Times starts with his star hassled by a hammy. Oh and
then you got TO and he’s a question mark. Dorf looks slightly more
stable, even if he’s got Kurt Warner throwing the passes. I like
Ronnie Brown in the backfield, but then again, I am VERY bias. In
the end, the man just won his second championship in a row – how
do you vote against that?
PICK: NOMAD IS NO DORF-MAN
Canton FC vs
Born to Run My Mouth
I like the fact that Josh took the Ravens D. Besides the fact that
there is no more appropriate place for a Raven to play Fantasy
Football, having the ability to scout, see, and root for your team –
to be there for every game – well why not draft 11 of them!? And
then have the ability to walk up to Ray Lewis and say, “Ray – put a
dent in that Cadilliac?” PRICELESS!! For the sheer fact that Josh
can do that – that he can directly influence a player to hurt a player
on the opposing FANTASY FOOTBALL team? Oh baby, you’re my
pick! Oh, and long live the Madden Curse!
PICK: NOT BORN IN CANTON
labor power vs
Brock's Bandits
Communism invades Conservatism. After 2005 I will never doubt
Serrano again. But then again, he was in Moscow. Not much to do
in Moscow but review and re-review your Fantasy Football team.
Of course, this year he will be bunked down in London (how cool is
that?) and I do love ol’ Englishtown. Plenty to do there. His team
is questionable (Blaylock? Moulds?) but I do believe he will work
with it. Meanwhile last years #3, loves Brady and Brady loves him.
There are some question marks here too (Thomas Jones?
Burress?) but I like the way this man thinks, and anyone who
quotes Spaceballs when talking smack…
PICK: BANDITS WITH THE REAL POWER
