2011 Power Rank - Week 4

Week: 1 |  2 | 3 | 4 | 5

	RANK (prev)	TEAM	REC	COMMENT
	1 (1)	Buckwheat	2-1	Mr. Glass was injured once again during and had to leave the game. The 16-0, Dream Team record is now a thing of the past.
	2 (2)	Dragons	2-1	Didn't start the right line up again, and perhaps the bench outscored the starters, but I'm too lazy to do the math.
	3 (3)	Dynasty	1-2	Has the hottest QB in the league and finally getting in the "W" column. Can they keep the winning streak alive over the Juice?
	4 (7)	One Angry Gook	3-0	Lost a key running back for the season and pulls out the victory to go to 3-0. Perhaps only one RB is needed with 4 stud WR's on the roster.
	5 (5)	Stickboy	2-1	And you all thought drafting a punter as a kicker was such a silly thing to do....21.40 points from him and the 15 point victory over Grease and this team is all smiles.
	6 (6)	Rutting Bucks	2-1	A very good week from key players gave this team the third high score of the week. Plays Stickboy for the division lead and needs a repeat performance.
	7 (4)	Crippled Monkeys	2-1	Monkeys are still waiting for the big RB names to show up. At the very least, McFadden is covering enough points for two RB's. The receivers took a big drop off in week 3, but there seams to be a lot of that this year as the ball spreads to multiple WRs.
	8 (8)	Pimp Juice	2-1	A pretty decent week once again. Welker may have saved the victory for the week, and Peterson is due for a big game, right?
	9 (9)	Hustla	2-1	Only scored over 100 points once this week, but has two victories to show for it. Faces OAG this week, but can they pull off the upset of the week?
	10 (12)	Grease Slappers	0-2	Faces the Choads....one of these teams has to win this week, guaranteed!
	11 (11)	Thunder Choads	0-2	Faces the Slappers....one of these teams has to win this week, guaranteed!
	13 (10)	Short Bus All-Stars	0-2	Has a tough draw against Team Buckwheat this week, just needs a few players to get hot this week.

2011 Power Rank - Week 3

Week: 1 | 2 | 3

	RANK (prev)	TEAM	REC	COMMENT
	1 (1)	Buckwheat	2-0	This team is rolling with two high scores of the week to start the season. With the potential of Vick sitting out a week and the available QB's, can it get by with McNabb in his lineup?
	2 (2)	Dragons	2-0	A well balanced scoring team that is producing here at the beginning of the season.
	3 (3)	Dynasty	0-2	Despite the 0-2 start, this team is doing quite well. I'm a little concerned about the receiving injuries, but it should be alright as the season plays out.
	4 (4)	Crippled Monkeys	2-0	Sitting at 2-0 despite paying $100 dollars for Cam Newton and sitting him on the bench. When one of it's two top RB's start to produce, the monkeys may go on a winning streak.
	5 (5)	Stickboy	1-1	Tons of points, not necessarily starting the right players, but this team is scoring points, lots of them. Luckily this team has seven running backs on it's bench each week that it cannot start.
	6 (6)	Rutting Bucks	1-1	We could be hurting if Miles Austin is out, but A-Rodg will make up the difference.
	7 (7)	One Angry Gook	2-0	I'm unsure where to rank this team after losing Jamaal Charles for the season. Lack of depth is going to be painful, but I applaud this team for not having 7 running backs on their bench.
	8 (8)	Pimp Juice	1-1	Keeping AP really shook up the league. In fact, it totally changed a couple teams drafting strategy for the evening. It's paying off so far, but the receivers need to come around.
	9 (9)	Hustla	1-1	Forte, Forte, Forte!!! Finally he plays like you expect him to play. Hopefully the receivers also will come around and produce or this will be the highest ranking you'll see.
	10 (10)	Short Bus All-Stars	0-2	One injury changed the dynamics of this team as you're aware of by now. I think this team will be all right baring any more injures.
	11 (11)	Thunder Choads	0-2	Off to a slow start I guess and we'll see where your at in a couple of weeks. Did have the low score of the week at 97 freaking points! Since when is 97 the low score of the week?
	12 (12)	Grease Slappers	0-2	On paper this team looks decent, but yet to produce the big numbers after two weeks.

Fantasy Game Recaps….

Rutting Bucks (0-1) East 123.74	vs	Thunder Choads (0-1) East 97.25
none	MNF	none
Rutting Bucks earns their fist victory of the season with three Packers players in his lineup today.

Stickboy (0-1) East 109.86	vs	Grease Slappers (0-1) East 100.53
WR Mario Manningham	MNF	none
Stickboy grabbing a victory as Grease decided to start two receivers that produced goose eggs.

Pimp Juice (1-0) Central 86.70	vs	Crippled Monkeys (1-0) Central 101.13
RB Brandon Jacobs	MNF	PK Josh Brown
The current lead is 14.43 in favor of the Crippled Monkeys, however, the Monkeys have a kicker yet to play and the Juice has their RB. This is a tough call on who will win this one, and may come down to a late missed field goal....though it is a bummer to spend $100 dollars on a new QB that was the leading points producer of the week, yet leave him on the bench. It certainly wouldn't be as close as it is now.

Dynasty (0-1) Central 109.56	vs	Dragons (1-0) Central 117.83
WR Hakeem Nicks	MNF	RB Ahmad Bradshaw
A lead of 8.27 for Dragons, with each having a player on Monday's game. Who's going to get the points

Short Bus All-Star (0-1) West 91.22	vs	One Angry Gook (1-0) West 118.36
WR Mike Sims-Walker	MNF	none
Only one player to play in this one. The All-Stars need to make up 27.14 points with Sims-Walker who produceds 0.63 points in week one. It would be one hell of a turn around if it happens.

Buckwheat (1-0) West 143.50	vs	Hustla (1-0) West 107.88
none	MNF	none
Well it wasn't the 63 point victory as the preview had predicted, yet the win has easily won by Team Buckwheat.

Weekend Recap - Fantasy Bowl 2010

Championship Match Up….

	(6) Stickboy (9-6) West 82.99	vs	Crippled Monkeys (4) (10-5) Central 83.92
	WR DeSean Jackson	MNF	WR Marques Colston PK Matt Bryant
With just under a 1 point lead, this one is too close to call. You'll have to wait until Tuesday Night Football completes for the winner of the championship game is crowned. Yes Tuesday Night Football! Kinda weird eh?

Beer Bowl Game Recaps….

	Short Bus All-Stars (6-7) East 25.89	-	Dragons (5-8) West 98.70
	QB Drew Brees PK David Akers DT Philadelphia Eagles	MNF	none
Is a 72.81 lead safe with three players yet to play?

Playoffs 2010 – Semi Finals

Semi-Finals Round Game Recaps….

	(1) One Angry Gook (11-3) East 111.12	vs	Stickboy (6) (8-6) West 82.91
	none	MNF	QB Jay Cutler DT Chicago Bears
The lead is 28.21 in favor of Stickboy, who has Cutler and the Bears defense to play. It's the Bears versus the Vikings at the TCF Bank stadium. If anyone out there can predict who will win this match up, please let me know. There are too many unpredictables going on with this Monday night classic, where do you begin? Good luck to both teams as I will be at the Minnesota Wild hockey game during the MNF game. Doesn't seam right, does it?

	(2) Rutting Bucks (10-4) West 50.33	vs	Crippled Monkeys (4) (9-5) Central 98.67
	none	MNF	none
The top running back leading the way, Arian F...., I mean....Cedric Benson leading the way for the Crippled Monkeys in the Semi Finals round. Despite not having a quarterback with Aaron Rodgers out with a concussion, Rutting Bucks just didn't have it today with the remainder of his team. The Monkeys, with Jacoby Ford on the bench had yet another solid week lead by Cedric Benson. The Monkeys will now fight for their second Fantasy Bowl Championship versus the winner of the One Angry Gook vs. Stickboy match up.

Beer Bowl Game Recaps….

	Short Bus All-Stars (6-7) East 112.91	-	Thunder Choads (1-12) East 57.90

	1 (1)	One Angry Gook	10-2	Can you please give the rest of us a chance by not starting two players per week? Thanks!!
	2 (2)	Rutting Bucks	9-3	West Division champs! If it wasn't for turf toe, this team would look a lot stronger.
	3 (3)	Buckwheat	7-5	Oh boy, will this team hang on for the division title and can it still go deep into the playoffs?
	4 (4)	Grease Slappers	6-6	The bench is looking pretty thin these days....three defensive teams going into the playoffs....really?

	6 (6)	Dragons	4-8	Hi, I have Peyton Hillis, and you don't. The strongest team to not make the playoffs this year.
	7 (5)	Stickboy	7-5	Zero points from TWO of your receivers this week....ouch!
	8 (8)	Dynasty	7-5	Fred Jackson, the hottest running back the past three weeks. Saving this team from playoff elimination.

	10 (9)	Short Bus All-Stars	5-7	Needs some help to get into the playoffs, but this team is producing in the stretch run of the regular season.
	11 (11)	Pimp Juice	4-8	Tony Romo, out, Adrian Peterson out....this team is pimping for the most injured team for the Peoples Choice awards.
