Week 8 Previews

Newport Beach Apples vs. Minnesota Vicodins

The Newport Beach Express just keeps rolling along--Don Shula's ass should be fully puckered up by now. This week the Apples, staffed with Phil Rivers and Larry Fitz, take on the pill poppers from Minnesota. Save for the QB spot, the Vicodins will run out a smorgasbord of 'Meh' talent out against the league leaders. If those guys can't produce, George might have to go all Oliver Twist and asked "Brees sir, may I have some more?" NBA - 92, MV - 83

Korn on the Kolb vs. Aggies

A team with Adrian Peterson, Cedric Benson and Eli Manning should be better than 2-5. Unfortunately, it hasn't worked out that way for Mark. Poooooooooooooooor Aggies! There could be some change in the air this week though, all depending on whether Mark actually fills up the flex spot. Both teams are rolling out solid squads but Korn is looking at some tough matchups this week e.g. Slaton @ Buffalo in the snow. Ick. This one really looks like a toss-up but I think I'll call the upset. KotK - 70, Agg - 71

Steel Curtain X vs. CapitalCityCoastals

The Battle for the No. 1 pick in next years draft. Here's my prediction: Whoever wins this game will be writing the wrap ups next week. Right now, I'd say that's the Curtain. SC10 - 65, CCC - 58

BurrestedDevelopment vs. Breach Kid

Another slugfest in the works here. Breach should be at a much better place than 1-6 but as was pointed out in the wrap-ups, there have been some very close losses that have put BK into contention for Adrian Peterson next year. BD however has a good thing going despite his two main backs, Forte and Gore, having sub-par years so far. At the end of the day, I think a big outing by Chris Johnson and Peyton Manning takes Breach to win #2 on the season. BD - 94, BK - 97

Hoof Hearted vs. Nads of Steel XI

As the season wears on Hoof Hearted has been working hard on the comeback trail and has put up a lot of points to get their record back up to 3-4. On the other hand, NoS is looking at a 3 game losing streak after sitting pretty at Week 4. Don't see much here as the Hoof squad is looking like it's going to light it up again for a big week. I said it last week and I'll say it again: Matt Schaub = #1 Fantasy QB. What the f.... HH - 107, NoS - 95

Tackle Me Elmo vs. ballsacks

Another week, another set of previews. This week, tough matchup against a good ballsacks team. Aaron Rodgers will be the key to this one. If he can get it going against Minny, the sacks have a chance to pull it out. If it's tough treading, well, the rest of matchups don't look too pretty. My matchups don't look too great either, but should be able to hang on for the W. TME - 103, bs - 98
