Quote of the week, “Yes it’s true, this man has no dick” - Venkman
The Good Looking Quote of Last Week: “Tomlinson is scary good and thankfully his presence keeps me in the contest each week."
Good Night, and Good Luck was just as good as I thought it would be
Think what you want about the flick, but you want find a much better performance than Clive Owen in “Closer”
I really like the Colbert Report
I will never admit that any of you are better looking then me.
HANDSOME (BEAUTIFUL) BRICK WALLS AND TREES (last week: BROCK'S BANDITS) – You can't not give it to him, he's the only team in ROFF history to go 7-0 (although Marc will have to check the record book, I have the longest winning streak ever. You remember that year right? I won the whole thing). Anyway, this appears to be the last week he'll be in a huge amount of trouble. With Reggie Wayne on the bye and because of injuries the most handsome team in the league is using Reggie Swinton, Josh McCown, and a Carolina D that is apparently less than half as good as Indy's. Bottom line, 7-0 with Bulger only a week or two away from a Willis Reed like return means Scotty Watts looks good, real good. **Side note - he's 1-1 in Madden, so technically he's not undefeated.
HOT NOMADS IN THE DEEP (last week: BRICK WALLS AND TREES) – I've been unbelievably impressed with Navid's team. I admire the balls to drop Michael Clayton (I don't think I would have) but with Steve Smith every other receiver seems pretty expendable. With a deep group of RB's Dunn's bye means very little. Navid has to watch out for two reasons, Hasselbeck's bye and Sherman's guarantee. OK, maybe like a half reason.
SEXY BROCK'S BANDITS (last week: NOMADS IN THE DEEP) – Brock's team obviously was in trouble last week with the byes for Branch and Brady, he still has one of the top teams in the league and is a definite threat come playoff time. But the bad loss was a little too reminiscent of the 2004 season. They've played great so far but what happens when Brady and Branch are non-factors? What happens if it's during the playoffs? Them be the risks that the nice ass of Brock Landers takes… the man takes risks, he's been inside Parker for crying out loud.
GOOD-LOOKING MARRIED WITH RAVENS (last week: NOSE) – Good luck this week sunshine. Lukin's team has looked good recently, he's won 3 of his last 4, and with a massively inconsistent Culpepper. Lukin has gotten stellar years from Fitzgerald, Burress and Jones. All he needs is a relatively good game from Daunte and he'll make the leap from very good team, to major title contender. McGahee rounds out an extremely strong group and one I'm petrified of in our week 7 match up. Take it easy on me buddy.
CUTE NOSE (last week: BALTIMORE TOOLS) - Winston Zeddmore just keeps on keeping on. It's got to be comforting to know that you can win with your best wide receiver out with injury. When Horn comes back the Nose will get better. I don't see Palmer having another game like that until he loses to the Steelers again. Jarrett also got great play from Az Hakim and encouraging play from Mike Williams. Losing Mike Martz doesn't only help the Rams as a team, it helps Nose as a GM because Steven Jackson has gone from good to very good.
ATTRACTIVE BALTIMORE TOOLS (last week: COLT .45'S) - Marc was just an emotional mess last Monday @ Bounce, but at least his breath wasn't as bad the chick that sat next to me, uh, fucking gross. Either way just about every player Marc has is on a bye this week which bolds well for only his opponent, Rich "guilt you into sex" Kiss. It's hard to rank his team because I have not the slightest clue who he's playing but I will say Chester Taylor might end up as the best pick up of the year and another reason Jason would like to forget this year ever happened.
DECENT COLT .45'S (last week: MARRIED WITH RAVENS) - With Portis hitting the end zone (finally) Gregg now has a group of guys (Favre, Ward, Portis, Johnson) that makes him dangerous every week. The problem is there's a big drop off after that. Shipp is not a threat in our league and since the trade of Derrick Mason, Kennison hasn't stepped up. Favre has been great though and with the running game all but finished it's going to be the return of Super Bowl Favre which means throw, throw, throw (to Antonio Chatman).
EH BLADE BROWN (last week: FIVE SECOND STARE) - Congrats to Brian for finally taking me down (don't believe the website, I was the one that was 2-0). Brian seems adamant about not starting Kerry Collins (last week Volek, this week Delhomme) even though he has a light secondary this week (Titans). I like the Bettis deal for Brian as he adds a good amount of depth in that position and Kevin Curtis is a better play than Lee Evans either way. If the running backs start to take off (and I think Ronnie will) there's no reason to think that Brian will miss the playoffs.
NOT INTERESTED DUCKVILLE QUACKERS (last week: NEW JERSEY JACOBINS) - The McNabb era has started in Duckville and it has started well. He has a rough bye week and a problem at running back but if he can squeak by this week and get Jones back in the line up then Jones, McNabb, Moore, Crumpler and Marvin Harrison gives him a good group of guys at all positions. I said it last week, the winner of that game will make the playoffs, I say Parker gets that 8th spot.
IF I HAD A FEW DRINKS IN ME FIVE SECOND STARE (last week: BLADE BROWN) - I'd feel like one of those dumb whores from "Super Sweet Sixteen" if I actually complained about L.T. Ah, fuck it, how the fuck did he not get in on first and goal from the 3? When has that ever happened? Years, right? The Bell/Anderson saga in Denver has really been a detriment to my team proving once and for all, Mike Shanahan hates Jews. I like the Antonio Chatman pick up and this week is very important to Joey Galloway because it's his maiden week with Simms (which is the reason I picked up Clayton).
NOT GOOD LOOKING BORN TO RUN MY MOUTH (last week: SHERMTANKS) - Nice to see a rejuvenated Rich Kiss. Any possibility of a Mouthing Roff before it's all said and done? RK gets a huge upgrade with a returning Cadillac Williams against the University of San Francisco. At 2-5 things don't outwardly look great for Rich but I'd argue that he's the most prepared for next year and his 2005 season is very far from done. Despite Keenan's TD productions, his wide outs seem to be the Achilles Heel but I still wont count Mr. Sympathy out.
ONLY FOR $1 MILLION NEW JERSEY JACOBINS (last week: DUCKVILLE QUACKERS) - The season is far from over for Dave but thinks have looked grim the last few weeks. The Randy Moss injury obviously hit Dave pretty hard and there is no substitute for him. The good news is that Tony G got involved in the K.C. offense and that Droughns had a 100 yard game. Jersey is battling through injuries but he's certainly not out of it yet….
IF I WAS BLIND SHERMTANKS (last week: BORN TO RUN MY MOUTH) - … on the other hand. I think that Jay is in worse shape than Nick actually. Nick has the worst team which puts him in the lead for the LT sweepstakes (I don't care what the records say… this is based on looks, nothing else). In a surprising move Jay will bench KJ for Jamal and even more surprising news, Antowain Smith is clearly his best running back (that's right, better than Michael Bennett). Two bits of good news for the Tanks: 1) according to Bears sources, Benson is practicing well and 2) he's above .500 when guaranteeing wins.
GROSS PROPAGANDA (last week: PROPAGANDA) - I know Nick didn't start him, but I read somewhere that Vick's passer rating was 16.9 or something like that? This guy is an All-Pro? Get out of my ass. Nick is going the young route (Parker style) this week starting Chris Simms, Caldwell, Gaffney, Davis, Sporales, Gates and McDonald. The oldest player starting this week is SeaBass at 27 and Caldwell at 26, the rest of the team was born in the 80's. And if you're thinking I came up with those facts because I have nothing left to write? You're absolutely correct.
