9/09/14, Who is Allen Hurns and Other Great Questions
Oh sweet relief. Football is actually back for real this time. Not just preseason games, not just one measly Thursday night game, but a full slate of 16 games. I went 5-2 (just a small brag), I hope you all had a good week too. Tonight we had a few bombers that Dave won in our first annual Chili Cook-off. Two Brothers Heavier Handed (a variation of Heavy Handed) and at the end of the show we cracked the Flannel Pajamas Stout from Begyle Brewing.
We talked about Rookie WR's - we were impressed by Kelvin Benjamin and Brandin Cooks, and everyone was surprised by Allen Hurns. We broke down some of the big guys who remained on top of their game, like Calvin Johnson and Antonio Brown. We basically brown down most of the week (including some Ray Rice stuff) and previewed a few games coming up in week 2.

Extra Point: Colonel Forbin
Greetings from sunny southwest Florida! Apologies for my week one absence, I was only moving 1,417 miles! Regardless I’m here now, and Colonel Forbin’s ascent will begin from the depths of 9th place with a week one loss. My 78-point performance may be a blessing in disguise as it gives me 2nd priority on the wavier wire and a chance to replace the now forever infamous Ray Rice. Owned in 88% of leagues, he was a great value pick for an RB3 this year, but now owners are left scrambling. The wavier wire is electric this week and I suggest you scoop up these #hashtag players.
Here’s my 2014 Roster (draft pick 5th):
Drew Brees NO – QB
Vincent Jackson TB – WR
Michael Crabtree SF – WR
Julian Edelman NE – WR
Matt Forte Chi – RB
Le'Veon Bell Pit – RB
Jordan Reed Was – TE #Zach Ertz #Travis Kelce #Delanie Walker
Phil Dawson SF – K
Chicago Chi – DEF #Arizona #Green Bay #New Orleans
Ray Rice Bal – RB #Terrance West #Justin Forsett #Chris Ivory
Mark Ingram NO - RB
DeSean Jackson Was – WR
Rueben Randle NYG – WR #Malcolm Floyd
Dwayne Bowe KC – WR
Ben Roethlisberger Pit – QB
