Now that the school excuse is out of the way let's focus on the other reason I haven't been blogging: Football has started, and I've been way too busy watching rather than writing.
Quick hits on football season:
1. College football season is awesome, but we were tricked into thinking every matchup was awesome. Oregon/LSU was the only good matchup to watch, and it turned out to be a cruddy matchup.
2. The lockout jacked up the NFL during week one. It was apparent if you watched any offense, except of course for the Saints and Packers.
3. Your favorite team is never as good as you want them to be.
Alright, so we have the quick hits taken care of. Hopefully those of you who had a rough week in your fantasy leagues are looking to make some adjustments. Picking three Kansas City Chiefs players on my fantasy team was a big mistake. To Jamaal Charles, Dwayne Bowe and the Chiefs defense--the Buffalo Bills? Really? I was banking on that fact that you all were playing the Bills. My week one loss is attributed to you.
Actually, my fantasy team was a [expletive] this week--a perfect storm if you will. Phillip Rivers was meh and Steve Smith (of the Carolina variety) was on my bench. Who knew Cam Newton would have a career game in his first game? I don't think I'll get that same kind of production this week when my favorite team--the Carolina Panthers--takes on the Green Bay Packers. But Smith has been moved to the starting rotation, so we'll see what happens.
Look for more awesome Fantasy tidbits as the season goes along. I've been playing fantasy football since I was eight-years old and have only made the playoffs twice. That's right, I'm the Arizona Cardinals of fantasy football.
But I'll continue to give advice as best as I can.
