This week's 1st and 11 had PJ accusing Hai of having a gambling problem. Actually, PJ may have misinterpreted my email to him about gambling problems. It is I who may have one. I have discovered the thrill of putting down money on those daily fantasy websites such as Draft Kings or Fan Duel. But I've been bad managing efficiency in football (like not starting Raiders' Murray last night). I have a terrible 1-3 record in the weekly fantasy football games. It could have been 2-2, had I stuck to my new method of picking players last week. Alas, I couldn't trust the numbers showing Mark Sanchez as a value pick and started Phil Rivers instead, ending me 75th place out of 140th, 2 points away from winning (top 70 win). Had I started Sanchez, I would have been good for 7 more points. So this week, I'm trusting the system and hoping Kyle Orton gives a decent performance in Detroit against the Jets. Yikes. In better news, I'm like 6 out of 8 in the basketball matches. So I am up about $38 in total so far. Long story short, don't come to me for short-term starting advice in football. As such, these rankings are more of a long-term view.
1. Kevin - Long-term, short-term, whatever. Kevin is back to his normal position at the top. We eagerly await December 5's version of 1st and 11.
2. Justin - Mediocre fantasy QB? No problem, just have him face the Redskins sieve of a defense. Donny, have you collected all your Redskins gear and threw them in the dumpster yet?
3. PJ - Next two games are against the 2 lowest scoring teams in the league. Also batting 1.000 against Asian teams.
4. Vu - 3 wins in past 4 games. Highest scoring Asian team and has Gronk leading the charge.
5. Hai - Big Ben has cooled down in last 2 games and is on bye. Time for a name change.
6. Matt - For some strange reason, usually has his bad games against the Asians. Still has Aaron Rodgers to carry him.
7. Donny - Not bad, 4 of 6 right now. QB still shaky, since Matt Ryan is facing 3 good pass defenses next.
8. Lily - 2 in a row, and WRs are now not too shabby. Also, still very consistent in putting up 70-80 points each week.
9. Victor - Can't win any tiebreakers, so wildcard chances are pretty remote. Pretty much going to need Josh Gordon be inhuman for the next 3 weeks.
10. Tuna- Doesn't have Antonio Brown this week. I wonder who cares less, Tuna or Jay Cutler.
