Week 8 Picks & Football is stupid and I hate it

Let me put you there…

Hanna is gone. I am alone in my house.

With less than 2 minutes left, down 7.

Shea Patterson threw a decent ball to a wide open, in the end zone, 4 star recruit named Ronny Bell, I ball goes off his hands. To his chest. Then to the grass.

I hit my coffee table so hard the “Hard Fall Warning” on my Apple Watch goes off. I am lying on the cold tile floor speechless.

I spent the rest of the night staring up at the ceiling, trying to make the room stop spinning.

Football is stupid.

 

Ben vs Jake

Have I said that I have been impressed with Ben’s team management lately? Because, he has a pretty impressive team. He know has a top 3 WR & a top 5ish RB, and he wasn’t really close to that before the season. Plus, Kyler Murray has been pretty good. Lockett. Good. Smokey John Brown? Good. Terry McLaurin (has to play for the redskins) STILL PRETTY GOOD* *assuming Haskins isn’t playing QB. Jake, on the other hand is a very disappointing 3-4 and scored 60 points last week. But still somehow, will still beat Ben.

Jake Wins

 

Hanna vs Gray

Hanna’s bye week couldn’t come at a better time. No Zeke. No Dak. No Justin Tucker. No Mark Andrews. No Josh Jacobs. Brutal. Gray is projected for 60 points (must be in the family genetics). A matchup like this reminds me of an old Irish proverb. A fat Christmas makes for a tight graveyard. Let that sink in.

Hanna Wins

 

Adam vs Tim

At some point Melvin Gordon has to be good right? Also, me and Father Tim had a debate about Fournette before the year, and I am gonna have to take an L here. Fournette has been so Fournettey. Not a lot of explosion, but very 3.1 YPC with 25 attempts. No Thelein hurts and not a fan of Gore vs Philly, that DLine is looking to bounce back. Adam… what happened? Back to Back losses. You gave away TGIII. Keenan Allen has been a poop emoji. Tough times. Good news, things will get better… eventually.

Tim Wins

 

Logan vs Mason

HUGE GAME HERE. Logan isn’t out yet, (But Shepard is) and a win here could get him back into playoff contention. I don’t like trading DJ away. Imagine how good that team would look if you had DJ, TGIII & Julio. Mason’s team is now just a mixture of left overs from other teams. Wentz. Trash. Chark Jr. Trash. Derrick Henry. 2.1 YPC. James Connor. Will be a backup soon. Chris Godwin. Already peaked this year. All that being said, Mason is gonna win this year and beat a top seed in the playoffs.

Mason wins

 

Jarro vs Caleb

Stupid Jarro… Winning BS games… Being good… Not trading away his best players… I HATE HIM. Caleb’s team, still not good. Might back door a playoff spot and I really hope I play him in the first round.

Jarro wins

 

Mitchell vs Derek

Derek. Love ya. Your team sucks. I do think, how you sold Mike Evans should be the blue print for other team on how to sell stars. Now to the important stuff… Look guys… I am not sure how many more stars I have to put on a stupid team to win but I really feel like a combination of the Yankees, LA Galaxy and any team LeBron is on. We have the names. We have the brand. WE SHOULD BE THE BEST. Every player (When Adams comes back) is a top 30 play every week. I have the stars. I stream the D/st. I stream the Kicker. I SHOULD WIN!

Derek wins …. JK that was just for comic effect. Mitchell wins
