Hey League –

I know you are all yearning for a video update. I will start those back up as soon as possible. Some of you know I am in the process of moving and building so my time has been pretty slim lately. I do have time for a post update though!

Starting out, it is hard not to mention Dan’s video post calling out the league and Weber. While I commend his willingness to put himself out there, it made a brutal defeat even worse. From out of no where, on Monday night, Jared Cook comes on to make sure Dan cannot post a follow-up. Instead; Weber got the last laugh.

The current reigning champion had his team rolling again in week 1. Jon had major performances at all skill positions from everyone except his RB2. Erick did not stand a chance even with a 42 point performance from Brees and a 22 point performance from his rookie Shaquon Barkley. Everyone else on his roster dwindled in the single digits.

Bauhs was not far behind for top score, his team was also running on all cylinders. He had great showings from his studs in Julio, Brown and Gronk. Unfortunately i was lucky enough to run into that buzzsaw this week. I had disappointing starts from both my running backs and it appears Amari Cooper still sucks.

Next came Nick’s team with 121 points. He made sure to text me to let me know that all 4 of his running backs scored over 20 points. Obviously with a 41 point from Kamara, it is really hard to lose. However, Mixon and the Rams D did also NOT disappoint. DTM had the pleasure of playing Nick but it probably didn’t matter much who he played. He has a disappointing 71 point outing. One bright spot is his new QB in Mahomes who put up a flashy 38. Zeke and Allen also put up good scores but the rest of his team utterly fell flat.

3rd place Kevin had a good outing with 115 points led by a 40 point performance by Rivers. Mediocre but solid days by the rest of his squad except for Emmanuel Sanders who overperformed with 25 points. Newcomer Zach got a taste of what this league is all about, falling short with 100 points. He had some pretty decent outings from his squad overall, led by Evans.

Craig was able to take down Mark 106 – 89. Craigs team won but was very unbalanced. He had a 42 point outing by Tyreek Hill and a 23 point outing by Goff. Pretty much everyone else fell flat. Hopefully Hill can keep putting up 40’s. Mark’s team generally had a disappointing outside of Brady and pretty decent 13 point outings by both receivers.

Don’t forget, its only week 1! Craig seems like it was a good time to turnover a lot of his players but most people held firm. I will echo Dan’s call for MORE TRASH TALK. Post it, video it, tape it, makes the league more exciting for sure.

Lastly, Game of the Week clearly goes to last years chanpionship with Jon and Walsko.

Good luck to all in week 2, except for Dan, who might want to change his team name. Fresh Prince of Bell-Air? Not sure your prince is leaving the castle for a LOOOOONG time. Might want to address that.
