NBD - Week 3 Review

Hey! Did the fantasy football season start? I totally hadn't noticed. It's been like 90 degrees up here in NYC and presumably even hotter in the various Southern climes where you all reside, so I figured I still had a while before I needed to resume my Lassardian duties. Imagine my surprise when I booted up the ol' league site and found that we were already three weeks in with the McClusterfucks sitting pretty at 2-1 (albeit with a paltry point total). I thought about going back and re-constructing some draft criticism and Reviews for Weeks 1 and 2, but then I remembered that I (finally) have a job this season and I don't really have time to go cruising down memory lane in remembrance of games that are already well in our collective rearview mirrors. I do, however, have a few spare hours this Thursday evening to look back at the Week 3 games, and will hopefully be able to do so again for the rest of the season. Without further ado, the first Lassard post of the 2010 fantasy season:

Patience

It's coming. I promise. All you need is just...

Jokes and jokes and jokes

I found this legitimately quite funny:

NBD 2010 - Keeper Possibilities

I was sitting around today watching the World Cup or the U.S. Open or some other such summer sport nonsense when an ad for the Hall of Fame Game (August 8th) unexpectedly popped up. I nearly crapped myself. Amidst all the hooplah over the draft and then Albert Haynesworth's ridiculous trade demands, I'd forgotten that at some point in the not-too-distant future, football players will actually take the field and play actual football games. And with those games will come fantasy. With this realization upon me, I knew I had to do something, but that Hall of Fame Game is still 48 days away, with the regular season even more removed. There wasn't that much I could do, really, except...

BIFL - 2010 Keeper Possibilities

I'm attempting to pull a Reset tonight, which is where my sleep schedule has gotten so fucked up that I stay up all night in an attempt to "reset" my biological clock (shout-out to Marisa Tomei). Since I have nothing better to do, I figured I'd do the post I normally do several months later: a list of possible keepers for 2010. I'll included no commentary, rankings, or suggestions. This is just raw data. Do with it what you wish.

BIFL - Playoffs Rounds 2 & 3 Review

Yuh-Yeah-Yeah-Yeah-Yeah-Yeah.
I think I did it again. It's all over, folks, and your champions - for the third time in four years - are the Ass-Ramming HotCocks.  And while the first two championship teams had quite a bit of carry-over, the only player in common between the 2007 Champs and this year's was London Fletcher. What up, LFB! I believe that's what you call a dynasty, and it's also a big middle finger to anyone who doubted my #1 Power Ranking. Who's laughing now?

...actually, it's Shoaf and Bardey, who are splitting my winnings due to the fact that I owe them both a bunch of money. Oh well, I'll always have my imaginary trophy and the history page of the BIFL site. And this blog entry, which chronicles the final two rounds of the playoffs... after the jump.

NBD - Playoffs Rounds 2 & 3 Review

It was a wild and woolly ride, but we've reached the end. The 2009 NBD Season has come to a close, and your new Champion is... the Wild Stallions! Congratulations to DeYoung, who squeaked out a championship win in probably the closest NBDBowl that any of us will ever see. DeYoung will take home $650 for his defeat of Colly's Who Gonna Check Me Boo? in the Finals. Colly himself takes home a decent chunk of change as well, earning $300 for the 2nd-place prize as well as $150 for winning the regular season. Finally, Elliott's F You Tom Brady will have their entry fee refunded for nabbing 3rd place. Congrats to all the money-winners and to everyone for another fun season.
