Week 7 Previews



Newport Beach Apples vs. Aggies


The leagues lone undefeated team (whoda thunk it would be the Apples) takes their balanced attack against the underperfoming Aggies (where have I heard that before). Aggies have a strong rushing attack with Peterson, Thomas and Benson but unfortunately, those 3 guys are playing against some pretty good defenses. Meanwhile, the Apples squad gets a lot of good matchups. Perhaps, Chris should rename his team to 'Kansas State' for this match. NBA - 106, Ags - 85


Nads of Steel XI vs. Minnesota Vicodins


The Vic's bounced back in a big way last week behind--surprise,surprise--a strong showing by Drew Brees. Oh yeah, that Randy Moss was also pretty good. Meanwhile, the Nads did the complete opposite and put up a stinker--only 58 points. Nads is looking to change their ways by taking a flyer on 2009 Prima Donna of the Year Michael Crabtree at the WR spot. Also, take note that this might be the one and only week that you see BenJarvus Green-Ellis on a fantasy roster. Take a moment to let that sink in. Should be a slugfest though but I don't see any streaks being broken. NoS - 82, MV - 91


Steel Curtain X vs. Korn on the Kolb


Here's one of those matchups where when you look at the two teams on paper they should have the other's records. However, the Curtain's has had a rough going and has only pulled off one victory this season and things don't look too easy this week either--7 or 8 road matchups = ouch. Korn doesn't get off too well on the matchups either because his squad is playing against some tough opponents but it seems like all of his players are coming on around the right time. In the end, look for University of Houston product Donnie Avery to lead his schoolmates' team to victory. SC10 - 75, KotK - 98


ballsacks vs. CapitalCityCoastals

This one is going to be a battle between two good but not great teams. The sacks throw out a decent corps featuring Rodgers and Andre Johnson into the frey against a dangerous Coastals squad. I say dangerous because you never know when Brady is going to throw for 6 TD's and Bradshaw breaks off some long TD's for the G-men. I'm calling for the upset though. bs - 81, CCC - 90


Hoof Hearted vs. Breach Kid


Somebody call the Waaahmbulance. I've had to hear this week how Vic's squad has thrown up a lot of points over the course of the season but only has two wins to show for it. I guess the squeaky wheel does get the oil. And that oil is named Breach kid. Save for Peyton Manning, I don't think anyone on the BK squad reall excites anyone--probably the reason for the 1-5 record. Meanwhile, HH boasts a team led by this year's current top fantasy QB, Matt Schaub. Say it with me: WHAT THE F...??!?! HH - 110, BK - 84


Tackle Me Elmo vs. BurrestedDevelopment


The battle for 2nd place. This game hinges on Marion Barber. If he's better and comes to play against the Falcons, Elmo can give BD a run for their money--If not, BD takes this one easy. TME - 90, BD - 92
