NBD - Week 9 Preview

Checking in from Chapel Hill this weekend where DeYoung, Trost and I are visiting Elliott for Halloween. We were Lieutenant Dangle, Thor, 80's Rocker, and Point Break bank robber. Trost drank so much vodka that he took a nap on the lawn next to the bar we were at, which is when he lost his phone and camera. I spent the end of the night consoling him on a random street corner of Chapel Hill and trying to warm my bareass legs. We are nearly 30 years old. When does this end?

Let's not think about it and just look at the week 9 match-ups.

Stadler & Waldorf (2-6) vs. Woody's Warriors (3-5)
I haven't had many chances to win this year, and probably won't for the remainder of the season, but this seems like it might be one of them. The one thing that scares me is Brian Westbrook, but I'm not gonna let that deter me from picking myself.
S&W by 5

CH Croakies (4-4) vs. Matt Ryan Loves Dogs (5-3)
The Croakies' A-Pete seems like he's probably due for a big day, and the likely success of Koehler's Kurt Warner will probably be mitigated by having Larry Fitzgerald playing for Elliott.

Chestpubes & Ballfro (4-4) vs. Burke City Giants (5-3)
Colly has a man-crush on Kevin Curtis, pretty much entirely due to having a fun way of pronouncing his name, but he'll have to play against him this week which may cause some agita. It may be that sort of internal turmoil that has led him to start JaMarcus Russell at quarterback, and will also lead him to defeat this week.
Burke City Fantasy Football Giants by 6

The Leadfarmers (3-5) vs. Lassard Blows Harris (3-5)
OK I'm tired of doing this I just want to hang out in Chapel Hill and stop writing so...
LBH by 8

Hamster Now Guinea Pig (7-1) vs. Wyld Stallyns (5-3)
Lotta red Q's on the Stallyns squad this week.
Guinea Pig by 10

Mephistopheles (3-5) vs. Tri Steeg Area (4-4)
From Cedric Benson & Warrick Dunn to Kevin Faulk & Ricky Williams. Yikes.
Tri Steeg by 13

Last week: 5-1
Overall: 32-16
