Fantasy Team Numero Tres

And here is team 3 of 3...

Philip Rivers - QB SD

Vincent Jackson - WR SD

DeSean Jackson - WR PHI

Ted Ginn Jr. - WR MIA

Matt Forte - RB CHI

Kevin Smith - RB DET

Greg Olsen - TE CHI

Reggie Bush - RB NO

Michael Bush - RB OAK

David Garrard - QB JAC

Steve Smith - WR NYG

Willis McGahee - RB BAL

Mike Bell - RB NO

Josh Brown - K STL

Green Bay - DST

This league is a 14 team league which should explain why my roster is not as stellar as my other teams.Overall though I like my team as it stacks up against the other 13 teams in the league.

Looking forward to this upcoming season.

Fantasy Team Numero Dos

Here is team 2...

Warner, Kurt QB ARI

Johnson, Chris RB TEN

Tomlinson, LaDainian RB SD

Ward, Derrick RB TB

Ochocinco, Chad WR CIN

Welker, Wes WR NE 

Shiancoe, Visanthe TE MIN

Kasay, John K CAR

Titans DST

Hasselbeck, Matt QB SEA

Brown, Donald RB IND

Bush, Michael RB OAK

Mendenhall, Rashard RB PIT 

Walter, Kevin WR HOU 

Hixon, Domenik WR NYG

This is a 12 team keeper league where we can keep two players, mine were LaDainian Tomlinson and Chris Johnson. I'm not too pumped with either of those guys. I'm not pumped with Warner or Derrick Ward and some of the other guys I've drafted either so I'm not expecting too much from this team overall. But sometimes those are the teams that end up working out well.

Fantasy Team Numero Uno

In What's the Good Word tradition I'll kick off the fantasy football season by sharing my preseason lineups of my fantasy teams. I've actually scaled back this year from 4 teams to 3 teams. With school and everything else 3 teams is much more managable and makes me seem like less of a complete tool (at least in my mind).

Here is team 1...

McNabb, Donovan QB PHI

Jackson, Steven RB STL

Tomlinson, LaDainian RB SD

Jackson, Vincent WR SD

White, Roddy WR ATL

Gates, Antonio TE SD

Rackers, Neil K ARI

Chargers DST

Cutler, Jay QB CHI

Brown, Donald RB IND

Jones, Felix RB DAL

Coles, Laveranues WR CIN

Keller, Dustin TE NYJ

This is a 10 team keeper league where we can keep two players, mine were LaDainian Tomlinson and Steven Jackson. Overall I feel pretty good about this team. Unsure about McNabb and Tomlinson but feel good about most of the other guys I have.

This Is What You Play For

So the fantasy football season is coming to an end this weekend and since I haven't been blogging much I know that I haven't been giving the updates that everyone appreciates so much. So I had four teams this year again and all four of them made the playoffs, one of them actually had a first round bye and making the playoffs is tough in FFB so I was pretty happy with those results. Of the remaining three teams I went 2-1, so three teams advanced to the semifinals this past weekend. Of those three teams I went 2-1, so I have two teams playing in the superbowls of their league this weekend, which isn't too shabby if I must say.

If you forgot my recaps from earlier this year, here is a refresher:

All of these teams evolved as the season went along but team 3 and team 4 are the ones that are in the finals this weekend. Once you are in the finals you are basically in the money so I'm looking forward to having a nice payday come Sunday or Monday, we'll see. Wish me luck.

Fantasy Football Team Four Recap

Here is my fourth and final fantasy football team. No keeper league here either but this is a league that I have been in for probably 6 or 7 years now and it is a 14 team league so I really need to have the depth charts out. Here is the full roster with starters and reserves...

QB - Drew Brees (NO - QB)
RB - Marshawn Lynch (Buf - RB)
RB - Thomas Jones (NYJ - RB)
WR - Santonio Holmes (Pit - WR)
WR - Jerricho Cotchery (NYJ - WR)
WR - Vincent Jackson (SD - WR)
TE - Owen Daniels (Hou - TE)
K - Josh Brown - (STL - K)
DEF - Dallas

Reserves
Selvin Young (Den - RB)
Kevin Walter (Hou - WR)
Jason Campbell (Was - QB)
Maurice Morris (Sea - RB)
Steve Slaton (Hou - RB)
Eddie Royal (Den - WR)

Once again I've got Selvin Young, that's four out of four I think. He better be good this year. Overall I really hate this team. I had the 10th pick out of 14 and I just never ended up with guys that I liked but you know what...that is why they play the games.

Fantasy Football Team Three Recap

Here is team number three. No keeper league here but this is my work league where we have a good group of guys and had a fun draft in the office last week with pizza and beers and some trash talking. Here is the full roster with starters and reserves...

QB - Derek Anderson (Cle - QB)
RB - Joseph Addai (Ind - RB)
RB - Selvin Young (Den - RB)
WR - Brandon Marshall (Den - WR)
WR - Andre Johnson (Hou - WR)
RB/WR - Matt Forte (Chi - RB)
TE - Chris Cooley (Was - TE)
K - Mason Crosby - (GB - K)
DEF - Seattle

Reserves
Nate Burleson (Sea - WR)
Chris Johnson (Ten - RB)
Vincent Jackson (SD - WR)
Kurt Warner (Ari - QB)
Maurice Morris (Sea - RB)
Benjamin Watson (NE - TE)

Once again I've got Brandon Marshall and Selvin Young man talk about all eggs and one basket, need good things out of these guys. I've got Derek Anderson again and hope that he can duplicate last year and I love Addai and Andre Johnson.
