The Terrible Ten

Man. Just…man. Fantasy football has to be one of the least forgiving games out there. Everyone in The Terrible Ten knows about heartbreak — a multi-INT game from a typically steady QB; a defense that locks down an otherwise potent offense; an injury that leaves a doughnut in your starting lineup; being a top scorer … More 2025 Round Three Recap

A lot on the line this past week, so let’s get right to it, shall we? It goes without saying that no one wanted to see Puff’s Punishers win the Toilet Bowl. With the exception of setting a weekly lineup and a rare appearance in the chat (usually to chirp at Redman), Puffy is not … More 2025 Round Two Recap

Oh, how a once-mighty league has fallen. Gone are the halcyon days of weekly podcasts by Rubberband Man and FF Walrus, or newsletters by our fearless leader, Dark Side Scotty. These days, Scotty’s overseas walking with elephants (I shit you not) while Brent and Alex are doing their best Married with Children imitation: Which brings … More TSN 2025 Round Two Recap

I turned 49 years old this year. It’s so weird to see that number used to describe my age. Mentally, it feels like I should be heading off to high school when the alarm goes off in the morning. Physically? Well, that’s a different story. Most days I feel like I’m 149 years old with … More 2025 Round One Recap

My oh my. As if the 2025 season didn’t already feel like being a contestant on Squid Game, this past week stuck a knife in the ribs and twisted HARD. Some folks, like the Achane and Lamb owners, got lucky the numbers were high before the injuries happened. Other folks, like the Tyrod Taylor and … More 2025 Week Fourteen Recap

I’m sorry, maybe it’s my old age or my MS brain fog, so I’ll need some help remembering. Was it just last week that I wrote about the Vikings playing an all-time bad game? One unlike anything I’d seen in my 49 years on this planet?! Apologies, JJ. I didn’t have the foresight to see … More 2025 Week Thirteen Recap

I turned 49 years old this year. I grew up in a house that religiously watched the Vikings every week, so I’ve seen most of the games they’ve played over the last 45ish years. I’ve been through the various ups and downs the Minnesota football team has offered its fans over the years, and I … More 2025 Week Twelve Recap

Week Eleven had a little bit of everything — big games from the usual suspects (Josh Allen’s 42.68) and unlikely upstarts (Sean Tucker’s 33.00); the constant bevy of injuries (Atlanta got bit twice, losing both Penix and London); last-second field goals that determined games’ outcomes (Chicago making theirs for the win, Seattle missing theirs for … More 2025 Week Eleven Recap

Apologies in advance. I assume this newsletter will be a bit shorter than most. I’m feeling pretty crappy this week, and my head’s just not in the game. Evil Empire tells me productivity has gone up during my absence from work. Joke’s on him, though: I’m writing this while getting paid to be home sick, … More 2025 Week Ten Recap
