Fucking brutal week. Unless Gronk comes on or Lynch and Wilson go off Monday, I'm losing to Satan's representative on Earth in keeper PPR.

Why?

Darry Sproles: 5.1
Crabtree: 2.6
Andrew Hawkins: 5.7

Catt league: losing unless A.J. Green pulls something out to the tune of 14 points. Why?

Ahmad Bradshaw: 5
Antonio Brown: 8
Kelvin Benjamin: 1
Jordan Cameron: 3

With the exception of J-Cam, those are season lows for the entire group.

Standard non-keeper: probably going to win in spite of a fucking 0 from Larry Donnell. The fucking hell, Larry? Doing way too well in that league. Opponent has Edelman going to my Gronk and Morris. Score is 1.4 in his favour.

catt league: Lost by one fucking point. Bullshit.

Non-keeper: Win. 4-1.

Keeper PPR: Need 20 points each from Lynch and Wilson. And Pierre Garcon needs to get shot.

From this weekend:

"Dirtiest play I've ever seen."

Not only does Geno suck, he misses meetings.

Said the scrub riding my bench.

Jags limit Big Ben. Fortunately, not as much as being Jacksonville limits their offense.

Calvin going out lost me my game in my work league.

In my F&F league, I'm tied with my opponent and I have Seattle's D tonight. If the score stays the same, I'll win due to the tiebreaker (my bench outscored his). I'll be 4-1 despite being one of the lowest scoring teams in the league.

That's the spirit. That 2nd loss isn't going to happen on its own. You need to build up hope so the disappointment truly stings.

More on AP.
Peterson’s indictment has also led to increased scrutiny of his charity, which focuses on at-risk children, particularly girls. The charity’s 2011 financial report showed $247,064 in total revenue, and listed just three organizations that received money. A fourth outlay, titled simply “clothing for needy families,” listed “unknown” for the number of recipients, the newspaper reports.

In 2009, the charity said its largest gift, $70,000, went to Straight From the Heart Ministries in Laurel, Md. But Donna Farley, president and founder of the Maryland organization, told the newspaper it never received any money from Peterson’s foundation.

“There have been no outside [contributions] other than people in my own circle,” Farley told the newspaper. “Adrian Peterson — definitely not.”


Best mascot ever.

Win more than one in the series every 5 years and we'll have "unfinished business".

Ball deals with injury near his balls, confirming with resounding certainty his 2014 FF draft bust status.

Rice will be cooked by November at latest.

Vikings maintain the record.
According to USA Today, which maintains a database of NFL player arrests, the Vikings have had more arrests than any other team since 2000; Johnson's arrest is the 47th for a Vikings player since that year.

A) One on the right is a bit generic.
B) One on the left ... why the night? The games generally happen Sunday afternoon.

In one league, I've got Baldwin and Morris. Currently down 2 points. Ugh.

Another game: Up by 5.4 pts, he has Harvin.

And I lost by 1.

In the other league, though, I won by 4 or so, as Harvin had 3 TDs nullified by penalties.

Pretty much happened. Except Wilson got 30+ points.

Harvin had 3 TDs nullified by penalties

That was fucked up.

I won to a tiebreaker.

I'm officially the lowest scoring team in the league, but I'm 4-1 and have a 2 game lead over the other three teams in my division.

I want to talk shit about it, but I'm honestly embarrassed to be in first place. Ha!

In my work league I dropped to 3-2. Need to make a trade to replace Calvin while he's out.

By the end of the first quarter of Monday night's 27-17 victory over the Washington Redskins, Russell Wilson already had more rushing yards than Trent Richardson has managed in any single game with the Indianapolis Colts.

Burn.

AP pleads not guilty.
He will receive his full $11.75 million salary while he is inactive.

Just goddamnit. We could've bought almost four Josh Freemans for that price.

Ah, waiver wire Wednesday.

For standard non-keeper: Antone Smith of the Falcons is just waiting for Steve Jackson to hurt himself.

PPR keeper: got Pierre Thomas for cheap. PPR league, so he's good for some points. Also got Jace Amaro as a backup TE because I was stupid enough to have two TEs with the same bye.

catt league: time to play that most entertaining of games, "Whose D is playing Jacksonville this week?"
