First week updated

My condolences to the teams (Big Red Pigs and Yaugdawg) that were relying on Tom Brady to lead their fantasy football teams to the promised land. Ouch. Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy.

We have a few close games that will be decided tonight, but blowouts were the norm this week. A lot of people kept their best performers on the bench. But in my defense, how was I supposed to know I should have started Michael Turner over LaDainian Tomlinson? How was anyone to know that Phillip Rivers and Reggie Bush would actually not suck? And that you should have started rookie Matt Forte over just about any other RB in the league?

That said, here are the scores:
Martin Conference

I’m Gonna Win – 61
Bully Dawgs – 45
Bully Dawgs has 2 players (Ronald Curry, WR OAK and Adrian Peterson, RB Min) who will play tonight. I’m Gonna Win! has one player left, Darren McFadden, RB Oak.

Legion of Doom – 58
California Crazies – 62
Legion of Doom’s last chance is Ryan Grant, GB RB, who plays tonight. All of the Crazies players are finished.

Shack Attack – 69
Midnight Riders – 96
Final. No players left to play.

THE DOMINATION SQUAD – 101
Rick’s Pics – 80
Final. No players left and we have our first team to break 100 points.

Mudslingers – 114
Yaugdawg – 74
For Yaugdawg, Greg Jennings, WR GB, will have to score 40 points tonight, otherwise Mudslingers, our second team to break 100, will win.

Franny Conference

The Little Tykes – 87
Care Bears – 82
Care Bears’ last hope is Ryan Grant, RB GB, while all the Tykes players are finished.

Margarita Mamas – 45
Max Pain – 98
Unless Adrian Peterson, RB Min, scores 53 points, this game’s over.

The Shadysiders – 64
Nickis Ninjas – 75
This game is just about over. The Ninjas have Greg Jennings, WR GB, but the Shadysiders have no one.

Team Smack Down – 53
Hosty’s Hogs – 88
For Smack Down, Green Bay’s defense needs to intercept 8 passes and return them all for touchdowns. He needs to score at least 35 points to prevail and the Hogs still have Donald Driver, WR GB, left too.

Big Red Pigs – 35
BIG BAD BULLIES – 74
The Pigs will look to Darren McFadden, RB Oak, and Tony Scheffler, TE Den, to put up huge points tonight. But, the Bullies have Minnesota’s defense to add to her point total
