Leverage

With every passing week the NFL's locked out officials are gaining leverage. The brand is being ruined and Roger Goodell is allowing it to happen, by turning a blind eye. Its as though he doesn't care as long his pockets continue to get lined.

I am less excited about football than I have been in many seasons. It's painful to watch these games.

My other and last gripe of the week... I hate having games every Thursday! It's hard to know what decisions to make for fantasy lineups.

The run down on my 3 fantasy teams...

The MONEY league... Coming into this week I was 2-0, and on top of not just my division but all 80 teams in this league. (5 leagues of 16, that changes into the top 16- 10 division leaders and 6 next highest in points scored) I won again by 20 points. I didn't score as high as I'd have liked with only 82. I left too many points on the bench... the story of my fantasy season!

The Tampa radio league, I was 2-0 and am now 2-1 after a disappointing week, I remain in 3rd place. Philip Rivers scored 4 points... If you can win with a QB scoring 4, please tell me how... :-(

The family league... I was 0-2 and in DEAD LAST! I am now 1-2 after a comeback victory decided by less than half a point. Thank you BEASTMODE! The win catapulted me into 8th place overall.


My other thoughts:

The Buccaneers need to be as aggressive on offense as they are when playing rush defense. I would like to see them throw the dang ball before they are trying to mount a come behind victory!

The Colts have a way to go, but they do look better than last year. I am sorry to Austin Collie got injured, but I think the organization has a responsibility to protect his future if he is unwilling to do so himself.

I cannot believe that the Vikings beat  the Forty Niners, the Raiders beat the Steelers, the Cardinals are 3-0, and that the Seahawks sacked Aaron Rodgers 8 times in the first half putting them in the position to win on a bad call.

The Denver Broncos do not look good. Peyton and the receivers need to put in some extra hours.
