Weekend Poll: Who is the best Runningback in the NFL?

December 18th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | 1 Comment | Filed in Rest of the NFL

Alright, so this one is pretty basic. We’ve got 4 players who have a legitimate argument about who is the best Runningback in the NFL. The 4 I nominate are Chris Johnson, Maurice Jones-Drew, Adrian Peterson, and Steven Jackson. Now, you decide who you think is the best. I have already been on the record in saying Chris Johnson. How about you?

Lando’s Hotties and Fuglies: Week 15

December 16th, 2009 by Lando | 5 Comments | Filed in Fantasy Football

So here we are….

It’s nearly the end of the year.  And the reality of it is starting to set in.  Football is almost over.  My stomach drops every time I think about this.  Football is almost over.  It’s like when you’re in a relationship and you just have this feeling that it’s going to end.  That’s why I always take the initiative and dump every chick after the first three dates.  Guess that explains why I’m desperately alone.  And have developed an eating disorder.  Anyways…

On to all things fantasy.  The greatest league in the world has entered the first round of playoffs.  I’ll let the beautiful readers guess who I’m facing off against this week.  You guessed right.  The one and only Rogersworthe.  It’ll be a battle for the ages, a fight that will be truly as epic as the fight against Troy.  But we still have a lot of great match ups this week in fantasy, and I am looking forward to telling you ALL about them.  Lets do this.

Hotties:

  • Adrian Peterson:  He’s back.  I think he hit a slump once he figured out he was the 2nd best back in the league.  But Carolina’s run D has been atrocious this year.  And the Favre collapse was predicted by the Mayans to happen halfway through December 2009.  So All Day is going to have some fun this week.
  • Jamaal Charles:  How well do you think he would’ve done if he had started at the beginning of the year?  He is doing a bang up job for a terrible, terrible team.  He is living proof as to why Todd Haley is a bad head coach.  Keep it up man.  Keep it up.
  • Ricky Williams:  I’m genuinely nervous.  The reason why we were able to stop Steven Jackson is because his team blows black dick.  They killed themselves with penalties, and had a rookie starting at QB.  The Dolphins are infinitely better than the Rams.  We have a lot in common with these South Florida fags, but I think their D is a shade better.  Going to be a good game.
  • Aaron Rodgers:  I’m going to go out on a limb and say this right here.  The Steelers are nothing without Troy.  Madden Curse strikes again.  And the Packers are one of the hottest teams in football right now.  It wouldn’t surprise me if they ended up making a deep playoff run.  I would let Aaron punch me in the face and pour honey all over my naked body for the year he’s given me in fantasy btw.
  • Kurt Warner:  What an implosion.  The Cardinals had a chance to seal the deal, but instead they turn the ball over seven times.  And Kurt was responsible for three.  I would love to say that the old Warner is back, but they play the Lions this weekend.  You lucked out this time assclown.  Just remember there is always next week for me to tear your ass apart in the back alley behind Hooters.
  • Vince Young:  I think Bonnie Tyler really sang the song Bright Eyes about you Vince.  We really need you now tonight.  We fucking need you more than ever.  Because our offense is stagnant without you at the helm.  Come back to us.
  • Andre Johnson:  Did anyone watch the Texans-Seahawks game?  Because Andre took a shit all over the damn field.  And guess who he plays this week.  The Rams.  Nuff said.
  • DeSean Jackson:  I was cruising through the ole Thesaurus and the word “explosive” had Jackson’s name right under it.  Hand to God.
  • Marques Colston:  Has anyone seen the video of Terrance Newman riding a roller coaster for the first time?  Based on his girl-like screams alone, it proves he doesn’t have shit on Colston.  And I love watching Wade Phillips suffer.

Lando’s Hotties and Fuglies: Week 5

October 7th, 2009 by Lando | 4 Comments | Filed in Fantasy Football

Damn Lando, you’ve got it going on!

The above is a quote from the modern philosopher Rogersworthe.  And you know what?  He’s absolutely right.  Minus a couple of guys, I nailed last weeks Hotties and Fuglies.  Even though he’s my boy, I’ve got one thing to say to Greg Jennings.  Fuck you man.  Fuck you.  You think you’re hot shit in a champagne glass, when you’re really just cold diarrhea in a dixie cup.  How the hell is Aaron Rodgers going to pass for 300 yards and you only get forty of them.  Forty??

Alright did a few lines and now I’m focused and back on track (Cocaine is hell of a drug.)  This is the time of the week, the time when waivers clear and you’re thinking of who’s hot and who’s not.  And as always, here I am, sitting here at my computer,  ready to bless you mere mortals with my fantasy eggs of knowledge.  Time to crack them all over your heads.

Hotties:

  • Peyton Manning:  The guy is a BEAST.  He’s proven that anyone can enter the NFL, even if you’ve been graded your whole life on a curve.  He’s also facing the Titans secondary, which hasn’t been this bad since ‘83.  Look for an amazing week from stupid, sexy Peyton.
  • Tony Homo:  Gay.
  • Joe Flacco:  Man I hate the Ravens aka The Devil’s Handmaidens.  But they’re really good this year, thanks to Flacco.  This proves what a real franchise QB can do for a team.  Take notes Fish.  Oh, and he plays the Bengals who gave up the entire field to Massachuqoitdideakd or whatever his name is.  Cleveland’s rookie.  There we go.
  • Adrian “Killer Croc” Peterson:  Green Bay geared in against him and let Favre peak all over on Monday.  But I saw the commercial that allowed me to give him this amazing nick name.  I’m going to take that as a sign that St. Louis is going to get run over.(Random fact, if you google AP with his shirt off our website is the first result. I take full credit.)  Hot to trot.
  • Steve Slaton:  Took a leaf out of Arnold’s book and came back last week.  Man what a week too.  Guess what?  He’s going to do it again.  Because Arizona blows big D.  Just sayin.
  • Chris Johnson:  Already one of the sexiest players in the league.  And he probably looks amazing with his dreads in a ponytail.
  • Reggie Wayne:  It pains me to write this…  but who do the Titans have to cover him?  Exactly.
  • Andre Johnson:  This guy is the real deal.  He’s a playmaker.  This guy knows how to win. (Was that enough gay ESPN analysis for you?)  But for real, Johnson is going against Arizona.  And if Schaub stays healthy that means oodles upon oodles of points for Andre.
  • Mike Sims-Walker:  This boat is real.  He looked pretty damn good against us last week.  And Seattle’s D isn’t much better.  Not the same numbers but he’s still gonna do good.
Here comes 0-5

Anyone catch the Brett Favre game last night?! Oh yeah, the Vikings played too.

October 6th, 2009 by The Meena | 9 Comments | Filed in Rest of the NFL

(Editors Note: The Meena has been our most recurring guest on PosseCasts here, and is a die hard Cleveland Browns fan, of which I have the utmost pity for. With that introduction, I give you his first guest post here at T-Rac’s Posse: his review of last night’s Favreapalooza. ~Rogersworthe)

If you’re like me and you have no real emotional connection these days to either the Minnesota Vikings or the Green Bay Packers then you are just plain old sick of Brett Favre.  Now, you’re probably thinking to yourself, “Good God, not another Brett Favre blog!  Holy hell kid, get a real job.”  Trust me, I understand.  Bashing or praising, anything even mentioning Favre is nauseating.

But seriously.  C’mon, given the chance to share your opinion, would any of you really pass up the chance to make a few Favre jokes?  Or really not mention the stark erection Jon Gruden sported for three hours?  By the way, anyone else catch that moment right after they showed the video clip of Gruden back when he was a receivers coach for Green Bay and he was having a sideline conversation with Favre?  I believe Gruden ended the segment by saying, “I’ll tell you what, I sure do miss him,” and then proceeded to gaze lovingly and erotically back towards the field, towards the love of his life that got away.  I guarantee that will provide Gruden with any mental images he needs to perform sexual relations on, well, whatever it is Jon Gruden has sex with.

Jon Gruden's Brett Favre "Oh!" Face? Yep.

[/caption]

But really, all of the Favre fandom is just so much overkill.  ESPN literally will probably make an ESPNFavre.com just because they think that since it’s a good idea, others will think so too, like Peter King.  I mean it really has gotten to the point of absurdity.

Gruden also dropped this gem sometime in the second half; “You gotta be impressed he moved the ball from the 1 to the 40.”  Really?  Really Jon?  Do I really have to be impressed that a quarterback moved the ball 40 damn yards?!?  Seriously?!?  Are you smoking crack?  But I guess you’re right Jon, more importantly than any pass he threw, was the fact that Favre was able to move the ball 40 freaking yards.

Lando’s Hotties and Fuglies: Week 2

September 16th, 2009 by Lando | No Comments | Filed in Fantasy Football

Man…. what a week.

The only thought running through my head three quarters into the Green Bay-Chicago game this past Sunday was “someone shoot me in the groin… please.”  Titans lose by 3, favorite college team loses by 3, and my fantasy team was only up by 3 and my studs were sucking it up.  Then came the Aaron Rodgers touchdown to Greg Jennings and I was hooting and hollering like a lunatic.  I wound up winning this week, but at a huge cost.  This weekend aged me terribly, and I now suffer from self-inflicted male pattern baldness.  But that is why I love football, and that is why I love fantasy.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again.  It is impossible to predict who will have a good week and who will not(unless you are ruggedly good looking and part human part horse.)  But that is what my purpose in life is.  To supply you with names of players who will do well, and who won’t.  And last week I did… about average.  Some guys went off, some guys didn’t.  But you should trust a winner.  And I am indeed a winner.  And you WILL follow my advice, because that is the way of the world.

Hotties:

  • Peyton Manning: This is only a crush still.  Nothing like AP and Drew Brees last week.  But he is looking at a Miami secondary that allowed Matt Ryan to floss their faces.  Plus there’s something adorable about his mongoloid look.
  • Aaron Rodgers: Might be a tad biased, but I am liking this guy more and more.  Once he shaved the molestache off he put up solid numbers against a surprisingly good Chicago defense.  He’s also going up against the Orange Asian Tigers, who’s defense has more holes in it than Shia Labeouf’s hit movie.
  • Adrian Peterson: Once again, this is looking like another bromantic week for Killer Croc(my nickname for him after I saw that weird Nike commercial 24 times.)  He’s facing off against a TERRIBLE Detroit team.  Drew Brees threw for 6 TDs last week, funny part being three of those he threw left handed.  That’s how bad this team really is.
  • Clinton Portis:  Looking good heading into this week against St. Louis.  If he doesn’t score 15 points then we’ll know how terrible the Redskins really are.
  • Reggie Wayne: Must be nice being the only target Peyton has to go to.  Guy put up great numbers last week, and same as Peyt he’s playing against Miami.  Only two words to describe this attractive performance: man-handling.
  • Andre Johnson:  He’s already sent the invites out for a post game 200 yard game celebration.  I hate to say it, but the Titans don’t have anyone who can cover him.  Finnegan is too short, and we all know Nick Harper is going to stay in a cover 2 zone in the flats.  Damn he looks good.

Lando’s Hotties and Fuglies

September 9th, 2009 by Lando | 1 Comment | Filed in Fantasy Football

The Fantasy Football season starts tomorrow and I couldn’t be more excited.  All my drafts are complete, teams are set for the first week.  But there is always the ever elusive question, “who should I start?”  There really isn’t a correct answer for this question(unless your name begins with the letter L, and you happen to be typing this article,) because so many things can happen to the player you choose.  But lucky for all of you, the answer has finally come.  The Good Lord saw your plight, and I was sent to ease your suffering.

I honestly envy you.  If only I had someone as wonderful as myself writing about which players are hot and which ones are not, my early days of fantasy would’ve been so much easier.  But once again I digress…  Everyone likes to do a weekly love/hate column and rank players.  But not Lando.  He doesn’t love a girl on the first date.  For the entire Fantasy Football Season I am going to be posting my weekly Hotties and Fuglies column.

Hotties:

  • Adrian Peterson: It’s official.  This mancrush has just become bromantic.  Peterson plays the Browns this weekend, which means he is going to rush for oodles upon oodles of yards.  Plus it’s the Browns, need I say more?
  • Kevin Smith: Ok.  He still is on the Detroit Lions.  Doesn’t change the fact that he’s going up against New Orleans, and that they are starting a rookie QB.  Not expecting Stafford to be throwing it a ton.
  • Baltimore Rushing Game: F***ing Ravens.  Words can’t even begin to describe how much I hate that team.  But Kansas City is absolutely terrible on D.  I mean terrible.  When an overweight Lendale White breaks off an 80 yard TD against you it’s time to sell your team and start over.
  • Drew Brees: This guy is so hot right now.  I expect him to pass for 5000 yards just this week, matching up with Detroit.  And he smells good too.
  • Aaron Rodgers: Good lookin fella.  Facing off against Chicago aka most overrated defense of the past two years.  They allowed Kerry Collins to torch them for 289 yards and 2 TDs.  Nuff said.
  • Calvin Johnson: Anyone who can appeal to my childhood TV watching days is automatically hot in my book.  The guy’s nickname is Megatron.  mmmm…… Plus it’s safe to say that the Lions are going to be playing from behind, so look for a lot of throws going his way.
  • Roddy White: Going against the Miami Dolphins secondary.  Can you think of anyone who can stop him?  Me neither.
Thats right man. Work it for Lando

That's right man. Work it for Lando

PosseCast: Brett Favre and the misery of Cleveland

August 20th, 2009 by Rogersworthe | No Comments | Filed in PosseCasts

So I am joined by Lando, our fantasy expert, and our most recurring guest Andrew from Los Angeles. We discuss Brett Favre, the pitiful nature of the Cleveland Browns, PETA and its stupidity, and the weirdness of NFL Players owning Car Washes.

This one came out well and is quite funny. It helps we all hate Brett Favre and love making fun of him. If you enjoy this also, THEN DEFINITELY LISTEN!

However, if you love Brett Favre, then stop reading my site you asshole. Also don’t listen to this.

Favre Dollar Footlong

August 19th, 2009 by Lando | 3 Comments | Filed in Fantasy Football

To quote the immortal John Madden, “Brett Favre.”

He is back… again. Just like Arnold Schwarzenegger making 8 different Terminator movies, Favre has decided to add another chapter to his already annoying as hell saga. I honestly had hoped that he was going to stay retired. Guess I didn’t cross my fingers hard enough.

With Favre making his return he has rocked the sports world yet again. He has also rocked the alternate universe that I have submerged myself in known as fantasy football. His impact on the Vikings will be huge. Adrian Peterson gets much more dangerous, and his receivers get a huge boost to their draft stock. What could possibly go wrong?

This is EXACTLY what we thought a year ago when he donned a Jets jersey and had them poised to contend for the Super Bowl. Thomas Jones never ran better, passes were on point, Jerricho Cotchery continuously screwed me over in two leagues because he forgot how to catch the f***ing ball!! I digress, excuse me. Then what happened? Injury, age, and a tougher schedule.

And that is what I’m predicting to happen this year. He is going to have the Vikings perched on top of the NFC North, looking like the absolute faves to win it all. Then once the going gets tough he is going to suck hard, just like my neighbor serenading me through the wall of my apartment.

My thoughts on Vikings fantasy players this year:

  • Adrian Peterson is the best back in the league, hands down.  If you have the number one pick use it on him.  (I mean have you seen that commercial on TV, where he’s running shirtless?  I have no idea what he’s advertising but  it really makes me want to read that book I have about life in Ancient Greece.)

    Peterson fills me with hope. And some other feelings that are confusing and weird..
