2 Hard 4 the Radio (Week 7)

 

Week 7 had the usual fun right? Injuries to guys during games when you need em the most. Having no one to start but waiver wire lottery tickets. Yet, we solider on. Each week gets harder as we fight for the coveted playoffs spots in route to the grand finale. At some point rosters will be healthy, but will your final product be enough to get you to the top? Let's recap. 

OlympusHasFallen 110.00 vs Chasing Flowers 167.20

Watching your first loss of the season come at the hands of Quis was pure comedy. You stayed silent all season in the chat but when you saw Quis' name you panicked. PTSD of horrible losses had you trembling while looking at the app. You pulled your Jets comforter up to your neck like a kid afraid of the dark. Then Thursday night made some of those fears real. Then you started Jalen Coker after the disappointing Devonta Smith news. Then the Jets went Jets and lost to the Dolphins. In a last ditch effort to salvage the week, you wanted to tail your nemesis with bets. Judging by the silence, I think you lost that too. Dust yourself off though, at least Skat is a feature back again. 

If there's any way to get that swagger back, its to play Eddie when the Jets are facing a winless team. Thursday night got things poppin for you and you never looked back. You got the extra satisfaction of beating Eddie by having your namesake RB beat up on the Jets. Emotional damage at the highest level. Great win on the week and highest point total. Da GAWD wants to thank you personally for foiling Eddie's plans on longest undefeated streak to start the season. You might be getting back in the mix with this win. 

Team 7th Circle of Hell 115.15 vs U Can't CMC Me 123.95

The week looked like this was yours to win. Thursday got your kicker 15 points and Irving was running buck wild. So you put your phone down to watch some basketball. Meanwhile, Nico and LaPorta weren't getting the guidance they needed to put up enough points. To top it all off, you're defense gave up -3 points. You had to know Lamar wasn't playing in the game. Why expect the defense to stop a divisional rival like that??? That highest point total of the year must've been your chip because you're phoning it in. You and Trav are dangerously close to the Gordon spot. 

Another week without Lamar and everyone on bye and you still got the win. It was ballsy to keep the Jags defense and start Tyrone Tracy but here we are. It paid off and Tracy paid the cost. Cousins and CMC led the charge back into the win column for you. This ragtag scrappy roster is getting some favorable matchups. Not sure why you're still holding Price with Charbonnet ready to return, but I'll leave you to your own decisions. I don't need more competition for a bye week. Good win.  

My 3 TE's 126.40 vs Amon-Ramen Noodles 145.70

With your season on the brink of collapse, DA GAWD is stunned at this roster mismanagement. You're holding on to THREE TE's like you have Gronk, Jimmy Graham, and Aaron Hernandez. At some point, you have to trade one of them to get some value back on your team. Otherwise, you're gonna be in hanging with Gordon talking about 5th round draft picks that could blow up in 2028. In 2024, you had a 9 game win streak. Get back to that mode. We don't want your loser fee to cover cookies that you won't eat. 

Looks like Tony Pollard took baton this week before Kenneth Walker could grab it. 3 TDS from Pollard, 150 yards from Sun GAWD, and Immaculate Concepcion coming through with 129 yards put this away. You had points to spare with Odunze and its not that big of a deal. Strong chance that Waddle doesn't play the next few weeks and you'll need Odunze to step up big. Just remember that the altar is always open for those Odunze prayers. Solid win. 

King Quon 141.80 vs Ja'Marrageddon 153.25

Da GAWD didn't have the hurt to insult your team name, the loss was insulting enough. Like I prophesied in last week's recap, you'll lose a player to injury every week. This time, it was Aaron Jones on the week that my coveted Jordan Mason came back. The matchup was still close with Barkley playing on 1.5 legs. I thought it was ballsy to even start em knowing that it was possible that he wouldn't play. But when things were looking up, you fell back into those old Charlie Brown ways. The victory was snatched away right when you thought a comeback was in sight. Let's hope Tre Tucker doesn't get hurt next week when you start em. (Been a while since I used this Gif for you, but it felt right)

Another week, another hard fought victory. Every week you patiently wait for one of your studs to bail you out and they always do. You had to phone in the challenge yourself to get the Loveland TD. Then you had to wait for Jamar Chase to get a TD like you were waiting for your parents to get done talking so you could go home. Lucky for you, its still all working out. Solid win on the week as you keep your playoff spot. The road ain't easy but you're making it look that way. 

The Syndicate 148.60 vs Team DQ 162.20

I really hope you didn't stay awake for the finale of this game. Midway through MNF it looked like it was going to come down to the wire. The Dak/Lamb stack was putting you within the win. But then garbage time running got the best of you. Even worse, Javonte scored a TD and got enough rushing yards to put him in the bonus - guaranteeing a victory for DQ. It was a hard fought battle. You were working on fumes. I've never even thought to roster RoJo, K Mumpfield or J Lane (I won't bother looking up there names - that's how bad it was). Tough loss. 

In a week that you didn't have Josh Allen nor Davante Adams, I thought for sure you'd be susceptible to a loss. Yet the combo of Javonte and Jameson Williams did the heavy lifting. After breaking the FAAB bank on Cooper, you started him and it paid off. All great GM moves. Its gonna be fun when you break the silence in the chat with an early exit in the playoffs. Til then, keep ignoring us. 

This Team is Dead 86.20 vs Da GAWD Al GAIB 114.15

Finally took my advice to start Blake Corum huh? Maybe you'll take some other advice and quit that other league. Guaranteed that you'll have a respectable fantasy season again. Its been almost 10 years since that season existed. How much longer are you going to hold on to the version in your head and the version of you that's barely getting to a 100 points each week? Reality is knocking on the door and you just won't answer. Its ok though. Play spoiler the rest of the season. Ruin people's fantasy hopes while they live with the stench of losing to you. That's all the pride you have left. 

You ever hear that advice about arguing with idiots? They can't tell the difference from a distance. Playing Gordon made DA GAWD stoop to his level by barely scoring over 100 pts but luckily he beat me with experience. I knew the week was gonna get weird because I was supposed to have a cake walk. Then Egbuka goes out. Da GAWD picks up Wicks....Wicks goes out. Last ditch, DA GAWD remembers draft day and sees Caleb Douglas available again. He gets blessed with a blowup game. Can't make this up. Da GAWD's squad is too hard for the radio or the recaps. This masterpiece of a season is gonna be in the history books.

Whisper My Name (Week 6)

What a spooky season. The injuries keep mounting and the prayers are needed. Even REFs are getting hurt. At this point, most of the top 24 fantasy draft picks have been hurt/missed multiple games. This season is about having luck on your side to stay healthy and your lottery pick waiver pickup comes through. Da GAWD can't even ridicule most your start em/sit em decisions because you got no choices. Yet we fight on. Let's recap how Week 6 went. 

Motel 6 88.60 vs U Can't CMC Me 124.45

You waited 5 weeks for AJ Brown to get less points than Kimani Vidal. This is the third time in this young season that you've failed to reach 100 points. Now you're down Terry McLaurin. This recap is a Performance Improvement Plan and you're on thin ice. DA GAWD offered you Likely and Lloyd for Jacobs. Even after you throw it in my face, I offered you real advice to show that I'm a gracious deity. I told you that you still had time to start Corum over Hampton. And you did not heed the warnings from the last recap about starting a defense against your starter. Fighting the allegations that your a bad GM has got to be draining. There's nothing left to say or salvage for this team. 

Got a little scary there for you Adam. You were at risk of losing to the league punching bag. Doubs showed promise and then got hurt on the very play that scored you 14 points. Luckily, your teams' namesake came through in the clutch to perform as expected. You even got a much needed Rachaad White sighting. DA GAWD thinks big things are in store for keeping the faith in MHJ this long. Let's hope the wins continue while you wait for the great return of Lamar Jackson. Congrats on the win. Just keep holding on to 4th place. 

Slow Singin', Flower Bringin' 101.85 vs Amon-Ramen Noodles 107.60

With four of your starters on a bye and Deebo out, you didn't have many options. The waivers were a wasteland. When you needed Stevenson the against the lowly Jets, he got bottled up. Kamara showed a flicker of hope when he came back in the game and glided through the defense to a beautiful score. But Vele couldn't be part of the game where the Saints scored 34 points. With no Lamar, Zay just danced for extra yards without any TDs.  Safe to say the repeat is out of reach. This is the game where it was solidified. 

DA GAWD was gracious enough to ease your worries when I told you that Kenneth Walker alone would fix this mess. With Goff and Sun Gawd out, you needed this win. Juwon Johnson did a Hyrox workout by running and blocking all day. But that is to be expected when you start a defense against your starter. Now that McLaurin is done for some time, you'll be able to lean on Diggs to get your team right while you wait on ETN. Now that your best players bye's are complete, focus on the prize. You're better than this.

Team Purgatory 112.90 vs King Quon 148.40

It was all good just a week ago. Coming off a historic point total last week, you were smacked back to Earth. Now its not all your fault. You had two players on a bye and two players that are hurt. But you also didn't heed the warnings and started the Ravens D against Boston. Luckily for you, Puka won't be competing for targets moving forward after DA GAWD had to put the plague on Adams. Be thankful for the blessing. But what's it gonna be? You gonna be a team that can get 200 points or a team that wants to hang with Gordon? 

Byes and injuries didn't stop this win from happening. After dealing with bad luck, you put together a formidable squad. Did Tre Tucker and Germie Bernard put up more point than Puka and Nico??? Yuck (Pusha T sound). Seeing a G.Bernard come through in a waiver week brought back the Giovanni Bernard days, so thanks for that. But you're karma ain't done. Each week you're gonna get an injury. Even if its your kicker. Keep fighting though. Its fun watching you struggle all season after acting like you got the best of me on draft day.  

My Njigba 111.60 vs Ja'Marrageddon 123.75

You were a lot more active in the chat when you were sitting at 2-0. You're now on a 4 game slide AND gave Gordon his only win. I don't know if the reality of taking 3 TE's is settling in yet, but these are the results. I understand the logic of trying to start Gainwell for a revenge game and benching Demario Douglas with AJ Brown back, but that one change could've won you the week. Especially since Gainwell hasn't done shit all season. Get back in the mode to win and get this team rockin. You don't want to lose another one.

Seems like you're fighting for your life every week. No blow outs. No easy victories. Just waiting til Primetime games to seal the victory. In a week without your first pick, you still put together a decent win. You had to choose between QBs but made the right decision. On top of that, you finally got a Loveland sighting after waiting weeks to see his production come through. And low-key you're getting value out of Keenan Allen. Now lets hope JK Dobbins doesn't go down when you start him in Week 7. Your team is scrappy and this is what Fantasy Football is about. 

 

The Syndicate 129.80 vs StatueofGibbserty 153.75

Another week with players hurt. You tried your best. It looked like you had a chance to make a crazy comeback with Mike Evans on Monday Night. Then we saw the aging problems of Mike Evans. You even had Pitts make a huge impact on the week. If only you got the win with that type of production. We all know it won't repeat next week. The only silver lining is that most of your players should be available to play in Week 7 and you get to play a DQ team that doesn't have Devante Adams. You're welcome.

 

Another week. Another win. Keeping the chat on mute and continuing on to a 6 game win streak must be nice. You're coming for DA GAWD's record of 7-0 to start the season. Even got the highest point total of the week by .15. All of this without Gibbs while Skat putting up a donut. You've gotta be patting yourself on the back at this point. The fun part for me is how much more this one will hurt when you don't win. You've been so close for so long and this is the closest. Gibbs gonna let you down in the worst way. You heard it here first Josh Allen. Congrats on the win. 

Team Devante Q 123.55 vs DA GAWD Al Gaib 153.60

DA GAWD can't lie. This matchup was concerning. Highest point total in the league and everyone was healthy with favorable matchups. Had to cook up a special plague for you. Bijan only had 9 carries??....FOR 61 YARDS!?!? No rushing TD for Josh Allen???!! And just when you figured Devante could fix it all up, his hammy explodes??? Yeeash. Since you've been so quiet in the chat, I needed to plague you to the point that you could only Whisper My Name since you don't talk otherwise. 

Trevor Lawrence hasn't put up more than 20 points against the Texans in any of his matchups against them. Yet when he has DA GAWD on his side, he manages a strong 30. I don't think ya'll are recognizing the masterpiece/art that I'm putting together for this season. Recaps based on the entire Drake album? Called out from Week 1? What more do you want? Do you need me to call the BTJ trade where he starts putting up 18 a game? For Jordan Mason to be a TD vulture for the rest of the season? 

Just know that if you need any blessings, just Whisper My Name for it. 

#Amen

Firm Friends (Week 5)

 

We back at it. In Week 5, every match-up was concluded before Sunday night. GMs are starting bare bones lineups and hoping for the best. Bench players are a combination of injuries, legal battles, and trade bait that can't score points. We even saw the results of committing the cardinal sin of starting a defense against a player your start. At least start-em sit-em decision are easier than ever since nobody is available to play most weeks. Parity is at an all time high and every point counts when we get close to the playoffs. Until then, let's see where people got lucky.

U Can't CMC Me 88.75 vs Team DQ 147.50

Yikes. Sunday morning started off on the wrong foot (literally) with Shipley going down in the middle of the game. I think that's karma for committing the cardinal sin of starting a defense against one of your players. While you got some decent news in MHJ getting traded, he was ineligible to play and the rest of your bench was hurt. This left you starting Sadiq and even HE got concussed out the game. I don't know how much longer CMC and London can hold this rickety ship together week to week. Let's hope Tua isn't starting in Week 6 or you're losing London production too. 

Going into Monday night, it looked like DQ's squad was on its way to its lowest point total of the season. But as always, Josh Allen cleans up any mistakes that could happen. DQ's team is a strong contender for team to beat, but we'll wait for the rug to get pulled. I'm looking forward to the barrage of messages when it all falls apart. 

LaQuinta Inn 94.40 vs King Quon 158.80

I don't know what else to say. The team was doomed after picking Omarion Hampton. There are no choices that can be done to redeem the team. If there was a bet for you to pay a loser fee, the cashout option would be at 49.95 right now and we still have 8 more weeks to determine it. Somehow you got lucky with Darius Cooper. But I guess a turd in the hand is worth two on the bench. For your sanity, I hope you can at least win 4 more games. 

No Mahomes, no Barkely, no DJ Moore. You finally started to show some more life by getting Justin Jefferson back. Trey McBride made a great bobble catch. Aaron Jones and Swift managed to put up great performances and Penix was a serviceable swap. Congrats on getting over 150 points. Its been a while so I know getting this win felt like getting a breather. You're not out the woods yet though. Barkely may be out a while and Jordan Mason is coming back to vulture some Jones TDs. But a win is a win even if its against Gordon. Congrats.

My Njigba 97.75 vs Team 7 Heaven 227.05

Woof. Gerald walked in your house and put his feet up on your couch - no socks. This matchup was done midway through the 4pm games. What's worse is that Montgomery and JSN popped up with injuries after the matchup - putting you in jeopardy of being closer to Gordon in the standings. At some point, you're gonna need to drop one of your TEs in favor of starting a better option. I hope you find the right one before its too late. Maybe McConkey comes back in time for you. 

Highest point total of the week! Might even be the highest total of the season. If my GAWDLY memory serves right, this might be 3rd in all time scores in the league. Give yourself a pat on the back for coming back strong. You managed to do this without Breece and Addison. Even Daniels had a great game on your bench. This is how you bounce back and don't settle into the bottom half of the league. Unfortunately, history says that all those players that went nuclear don't repeat the following week. Maybe Nico and Boston take their shot next. 

Amon-Rotten Noodles 106.65 vs StatueofGibbserty 175.60

Live by the stack, die by the stack. Without K9, its hard to put up the points you need and ETN being on IR doesn't make things any easier. You must've been holding your breath when you started Keaton Mitchel and Carnell Tate. Everything about this week was rotten. You know its bad when your kicker is the second highest scorer on the week. Maybe things get better soon but who knows. 

Silently 5-0. Another win despite having a bench of un-startable players for the week. I'm thinking your "Mute Dave/DQ" act is a ploy to prevent jinxing a good season. Part of me just knows that you and Josh Allen are in the same headspace. Great regular seasons that get tested in the playoffs. Shout out to you for having the gall to keep a defense for the bye week. You're masterminding a good season. 

Chasing Ghosts 133.10 vs Ja'Marrageddon 170.30

Gotta be rough when you watch your opponent get the points designated for Chase Brown and Tee Higgins. There's not much you could've done differently for this matchup. Even if you started Rhamondre Stevenson, it wouldn't have been enough to keep up. Not sure when its going to start sinking in but your road to a repeat is only getting longer. At least your ability to have more wins than Gordon shows that its still a skill to put up points while having lemons to work with. Chase Brown is due for a blowup game and I feel bad for the person that runs into it. 

After watching Pickens get no love last week, he came back with a vengeance. Then Parker Washington rebounded with a 2 TD performance. To top it all off, you got over 170 points while your QB played an entire NFL game in regulation and scored less than 1 whole point. And we didn't have the dreaded -4 turnover penalty. You were rightfully blessed by not committing the defensive sins and still came out on top. Congrats on the solid win. 

The Syndicate 113.70 vs DA GAWD Al Gaib 169.15

We've been friends for a long time so it pains me to see you go out like this. Especially at my hands. But fantasy football doesn't care about friendships - only points. The Dak/Lamb ran out of steam and Jonathan Taylor stopped getting the ball when the game got out of hand. Another example of committing fantasy football sins. If JT had a good game, it removed points for your defense. If the defense did well, JT did poorly. Unfortunately both bad things happened. Rice will be back after the bye next week so you can bounce back. 

Everyone bare witness to effective TE drafting. Both TEs putting up WR1 numbers. The road to the chip for DA GAWD is turbulent but the trend is always up. I'm in your top 3 with more to come. More plagues to bestow. But this week I hope you heeded my words on cardinal sins. Its a freebie. When BTJ gets traded to viable team and Jordan Mason comes off IR, I'll be more emboldened. I don't wanna hear excuses or your plans for future truces. I am So Far Gone that a Thank Me Later is useless. 

#Amen

 

Plot Twist (Week 4)

 

Its Week 4 and the Fantasy Football landscape is filled with twists and turns. Some teams got their first win of the season. Some players rose from the ashes to get a TD while others continued their disappointing slide. The only thing we know for sure is that a healthy fantasy team is a winning fantasy team. Lets recap the performances while I push through writing this recap. Lord knows I don't want to. 

Q-Anon Quon 81.85 vs Team DQ 198.55

The injury bug is strong with this one. Losing Saquon and DJ Moore early in a week without Justin Jefferson is tough. None of it mattered though since you ran into the highest point total of the week. But I'm thinking you're putting the bug on your own team. Picking up half-a-leg Tyreek Hill is a headscratcher when your team can't stay on the field. Desperate times, desperate measures huh? Better be careful going forward though because you're dangerously close to Gordon's team and he just got his first win. Start getting those trade feelers out there. Waivers are slim and you got too many Q's.

Another week with the highest point total of the week - and this time Josh Allen wasn't the one to lead the charge. Bijan Robinson continues to be the homerun hitter with a solid QB. The scary thing is that the point total could've been even higher if the other B. Robinson didn't vulture 3 TDs. That would take you into 2018 GAWD territory. Continue silently getting these wins. 

My Njigba 117.60 vs This Team Won't be 0-Forever 140.30

Now this loss must've been rough to watch. Early in the week, I'm sure you were banking on a win. Then the unthinkable happened - JSN didn't score over 20 points. Then David Montgomery scored less than 5 points in a game that had 64 points scored between both teams. To top it off, the 3 TE strategy came to bite you in the ass after Kincaid scored a measly 1.7 points. But worst of all, you gave Gordon his first win after genuinely being concerned that he might not win all season. As they say, if you want to make GAWD laugh - tell me your plans. 

Now look at this. The sun does shine sometimes. Going into Sunday night, you had to feel the closest you've felt to a win in a month. You got the revenge against the guy who said you wouldn't get a win all season. If there's any fantasy equivalent to a Shawshank Redemption moment its this one. You crawled the sewage of insults in the fantasy chat for an entire month to get your first win in October. Nobody think you'll make the playoffs, but at least you didn't end up like the 2017 Cleveland Browns. Congrats. 

J'almostgotit 120.20 vs StatueofGibbserty 125.40

What a rollercoaster Sunday. The early slate saw you lose your number pick to a concussion in the first quarter. Then Ceedee Lamb told George Pickens that he's his sidekick. Parker Washington had an amber alert out and Christian Watson turned back into himself. But then there was hope left after Kyren Williams put up a monster performance. All you needed was Shough to make it a reasonable game. But alas. We all fall short of the glory sometimes - even Da GAWD. Once Chase is back in your lineup, you'll still be in the right space. You've never missed the playoffs and I don't expect that to start this year. 

With your back against the wall, you managed to pull out a much needed win. You were without Coker, Devonta Smith, Caleb Williams, and you're still down Charbonnet. You even bench Khalif Raymond after he was running hot. Part of me thinks you would've done that anyway since you couldn't bare to root for a player against your beloved Jets. Your team is coming back down to reality a bit but that's not much of a concern. You're still at the top at 4-0. Keep rollin. 

Amon-Ramen Noodles 148.00 vs The Syndicate 178.25

Tough loss Jesus. Kenneth Walker tried his best to bring your team back into relevance but Ian's squad was just too much. Seems like you called Eddie and you guys made a pact this week to bench any viable players against the Jets. The difference for you was that Odunze did do more than Darren Waller. Its all a wash though because you got beat by 30 points and there just wasn't enough changes you could've made to get a different outcome. At least you know you can start Odunze for Week 5. Dust yourself off and get back out there. 

Ain't been a dad longer than a month and already puttin' belt to ass. Despite a goose-egg from Rashee Rice and Jeremyah Love exiting in the first half, you managed to put on a great performance. Had they played decently, you might've had highest point total of the week. You even had ponits to spare with Evans, Strange, and Brian Robinson. Since the Vikings no longer know how to score TDs, you even had the best kicker of the week. Bravo on the performance. 

Team 7 Heaven 148.15 vs Chasing Flowers 180.00

If only you played Jesus and Ian played Quis. Would've been a small victory for you instead of the beat down you caught this week. You finally got Nico Collins and Puka Nacua back in your lineup but at the cost of Breece Hall. Then we see Kyle Monongai on the bench like you put him in timeout for showing up late to practice. None of that matters since Quis put up 180, but still. Your team is good and health is going to be important for this team moving forward. Until then, keep looking for those small ways to win. Don't relapse into old ways.

Second highest point total of the week. What a difference a trade makes. With ETN down, you were able to slide Kamara into his rightful place. The Burrow, Brown, Higgins trifecta was even reminiscent of 2018 GAWD territory. Even the bench managed to score points. I bet you're feeling like your old self again - taking advantage of Gordon trades, beating up on Gerald's team. Unfortunately we can't let that happen, but good win on the week. Well deserved. 

U Can't CMC Me 124.20 vs Da GAWD al Gaib 110.75

I blame this loss on myself. Early in the week, I didn't give this game the proper attention it deserved when I saw that Jadarian Price was on IR while Mitchell and White were not likely to play. I fully expected you to play MHJ over Doubs and things tumbled from there. Just when I thought I had some hope when Lamar went down, Derrick Henry didn't get the 3 TDs I expected against his former team. Then Monday Night, you shut it all down by not accepting the juju I was placing on your team. Excellent maneuvering and win Adam. You did a Plot Twist on Da GAWD. 

Da GAWD picked up all the right waiver people and managed to start the two guys that would get me the win. The second MHJ scored, I knew his kindred spirit BTJ would score. Either way, a loss is a loss. But its far from over. The season is long and we just got into October. 

#Amen

Joel STFU (Week 3)

 

Week 3 of Fantasy Football continued the theme of injuries and disappointments. The top 5 picks of fantasy delivered the value as expected while the rest have been injured or outright busts. We even saw outcomes from trades in real time. You could say that Da GAWD himself is back at the helm of dishing out plagues like its Thanksgiving. Its been so long since these powers manifested. Yall tried to kill me on draft day but Week 3 resurrected me. Lets recap the performances and how my omnipotence was involved in every single outcome.

Red Roof Inn 109.25 vs Chasing Flowers 139.40

On Sunday, there was a clip of Drake Maye crying on the sideline. I think the coach tried to remind him that it could be worse - he could be Gordon. Da GAWD hope's there's someone in your life to talk to you like that. Upon further review of your team, the problem wasn't trading with Quis. It was believing in too many Patriots. You correctly saw Drake Maye was the problem and started Purdy. But then you brain farted and started Henderson AND Hunter Henry. At some point, you should relegate yourself to the thought you're a journeyman fantasy football backup GM. Its getting hard to beat the allegations.

First win of the season for the reigning champ. It would've been real bad if you couldn't win against Gordon but a win is a win. And that win came despite losing Ache-chan and Goedart. Da GAWD has realized that your wins in this league all started with that fateful Kelce trade in 2019. Now that I'm on the other side of a similar pre-week 1 trade, the universe is setting itself back in order. Your time is over. It was a good run. Take the wins and let me beat up on Eddie in the semi's now. 

My Njigba Hurts 118.95 vs Team DQ 169.00

After running hot with as many TEs as RBs on your roster, you were sent back to reality. JSN won't be able to keep this entire team afloat week after week. At some point Herbert has to get the ball to McConkey and that's a tall task. Relying on an RB behind a swiss-cheese o-line won't do it either. Its not all your fault though. DA GAWD needed to sacrifice the whole Eagle squad to get the win Monday night. Can't have Hurts performing well and getting Saquon close to the goal line. You've been flying too close to the sun with your newfound confidence though. Don't forget those Last Chance U beginnings. 

Congrats on highest points of the week. It must feel good to have a QB that can still put up almost 20 points despite turning the ball over 3 times. But the real star of this show was Bijan Robinson. With a decent QB, things should look good to face me in the chip. As long as Puka is on the outs and Kittle stays healthy, you should steadily be putting up over 150 a week. I'd think of more to say but you're not reading this. 

The Syndicate 135.90 vs U Can't CMC Me 166.60

This week you had the exact same points as Da GAWD but had a worse matchup. In an alternate universe, you'd have a win. But instead, you watched helplessly as Penix peppered London with targets while Kyle Pitts was running decoy cardio. JT had a tough game against a good defense. Then (another) Mike Evans injury showed up at the wrong time. Its not all bad though. You still got Ceedee Lamb and a kicker that can score more than most of Gordon's roster. Dust off the loss and get yourself back to .500.

Thursday started off hot for you with Drake London finally having a competent QB. Hopefully you continue to keep CMC healthy and Fannin continues being a waiver steal. Jadarian Price might be iffy but you might have enough on the bench to get the job done. Da Gawd would also like to thank Lamar Jackson for not vulturing Derrick Henry TDs. He's a real one. Oh and don't forget to drop MHJ. Gordon still needs him. 

Team Next to Gordon 123.90 vs StatueOfGibbserty 134.45

Experience the epitome of having bad luck at Team 7 Heaven, where the roster is littered with injuries. Here, every week offers the opportunity to lose a player when you need them the most. Exquisite performances are only matched by RB3's that average 10 touches a game and bench players exude potential. With the stench of a unfortunate mishaps and captivating start-em sit-ems, every week is a toast to fantasy football's funniest moments. 

Starting off the season in typical Eddie fashion, your team is doing great. You're 3-0. Gibbs is delivering exactly the type of value you wanted. You picked up the Caleb Williams pieces and got Sam Darnold to deliver great value. You even got your win Monday night with a solid performance from Devonta Smith. But outside of that, this team looks destined to fall apart by the semi-finals. Having two Giants players and a hurt Coker won't do it. Congrats on the win though. 

Amon-Ramen Who? 133.55 vs Ja'marrageddon 144.85

This week showed you why JSN was the unanimous pick you should've taken. Especially in a week where you would've won had you picked him. After doubting Da GAWD's trade, you were plagued with keeping Odunze instead of Burden (who put up the points that could've won you this week too). The only thing left to complete the plague is to watch K9 drop when you need him most. But that won't be for a while as long as the Chiefs keep running hot. You're still destined for the playoffs so don't take this first loss too hard. Maybe we can make a deal to correct things. 

The week was looking bleak for you Juan. When you picked up Jonah Coleman, it reminded me of those vids of dudes crashing out because they flew a IG girl out and then she didn't want to do anything once she showed up. Jonah Coleman going on IR after blowing that bag had to hurt. But things looked up. You still had Shough put up points and JK Dobbins still played. Jamar Chase still played as expected and Kyren didn't get any Corum vultures. Congrats on getting the win with the odds stacked against you. 

Queen Quon 113.90 vs DA GAWD Al Gaib 135.90

This week you got caught in DA GAWD's Nor'Easter of Plagues. The trade you declined would've won you the week. Justin Jefferson goes down in the first QTR right after I picked up Juan Jennings that morning. Then Mahomes stopped passing. And just when you think Saquon, Swift, and Wicks can save the day, you watch Luther Burden get pushed in for a TD while Swift repeatedly gets stuffed. When the Eagles get to the goal line, you watch Andy Dalton throw a pick. Your silence Monday Night was deafening. I know you were punching air at every opportunity that Wicks dropped the ball or a play got called back. You been owed a loss like this for quite a few of our matchups. At least your Steelers won. 

Pulled up Week 3, beep-beep baby. Came back with a Bowers TD baby. Thought Josh Allen vultured Cook's TDs, baby. 2 TDs for Derrick Henry, baby. 

Burden came alive, someone come dig me up. If you drop a good player, I'll pick em up. You boys got big off Da GAWD, that's big enough. We know the reigning champ ain't repeating, the jig is up. They say you had the better TE, well mine just went nuts while you watch in HD. They say that karma could take an eternity, but Joel's dropped in Week 3. Ya'll gon get yours while I'm doin me. Ya'll gon get yours while I'm doin me. 

Aye Joel, STFU!!
