NFL kicked off in full force on Sunday. Doobie and I ate some chips and dip and watched a few games. I had the laptop open tuned to my fantasy league’s stat tracker so I could check in on how my fantasy players were doing.
Stephen Jackson got tackled as soon as he touched the ball. Ocho Cinco did next to nothing. Calvin Johnson did better than expected. Kellen Winslow did his job. Ryan Grant and Derek Anderson were ok but should have been better. My kicker kicked it well, but my defense should have smashed more helmets. I didn’t do too horribly, but I’m in a head-to-head league and the guy I was up against absolutely killed it with McNabb and Michael Turner. Murdered me.
I hope to do better this week. I have Reggie Bush on my bench and he was great on Sunday, but a friend at work told me don’t start him, he can’t be trusted. Ha. If I start him, he’ll go quiet, and if I don’t he will continue to perform really well — that’s how it works. I think he’ll sit this week, because as it is, my starters are favored to win the matchup this week. I want to win!
