Barbarians at the Gates - Week 1 Recap

Monkey 114.5 - Shady 95.7
Cooks, Palmer and Murray pave the way for Monkey to hold off the monster that is David Johnson; logic says Shady was correct in revving Christine's engine and idling Yeldon's; unfortunately, the NFL has instituted new rules against logic.

Foot 108.3 - Smitty 101.2
Eli showed up but the Carr ran over him; Carlos came out of Hyding in a big way and Foot's vaunted WRs stayed in bed, but DWill showed the kiddies how it's done. Meanwhile, Stafford was on the phone with Smitty screaming "Why? Why???" Extra Points: Oh, that Snead...Foot's got a pretty good lookin' team there with big points left on the bench.

Barilko 149.1 - Obx 123.6
Holy Schnikes, it's a barn burner! To put out the fire, Barilko needed a little Luck...and got it. Obx had the firepower going with C.J. and Ryan Mathews showing Shady and Melvin who the boss is, but Andrew was the difference here. Even Larry Fitz's nice game would not have been enough to stop Barilko this week. Oh yeah...the Vikings D helped things a bit. Kudos to Barilko for leaving nothing on the bench.

Trudem 93.9 - Micro 77.4
Where to begin? Well, to quote baseball's A-Rod, let's start with the "pink elephant in the room". Gurley is alone on the Rams with no help (especially from Jeff Fisher). If what the 49ers did holds up, it's gonna be a lonnnng year for Gurley owners. Micro could've overcome this by starting Winston and Coleman, but hey...it's Week 1, and Cam/Rawls aren't exactly second stringers. Solid start and solid team for Trudem; Devonta hurt, but the 13-0 TE advantage made up for it nicely.

Harold 99.7 - Sammy 61
Sammy gets low score of the week, but at least it was rounded off; Tyrod, AP, Demaryius and the Rams D were just killer blows, too much to overcome...when Julius Thomas is your high scorer, you know it's gonna be a rough one. Harold had some troubles as well with a mediocre showing by Russell Wilson, while Floyd underwhelmed and Lockett was non-existent, but A.J. Green, DeMarco and excellent production from the D and K spots more than made up for it. Better times are ahead, Sammy!

Stomp 110.7 - Bk 100.8
Wow, this was a matchup of "Shoulda, Woulda Coulda". JStew (running well but inexplicably taken out of the picture), Fleener and the highly touted Bengals D bit the dust for Bks while Brandon Marshall, Sammy and The Duke did the same for Stomp. Luckily for Stomp, he had the twerker on his side, not to mention a stunner from Theo Riddick. If Bk starts Jordan Matthews over Flat Matt Jones in the Flex...ah, shoulda, woulda coulda. On the other hand, same could be said for Stomp with DeSean over Sammy. This was a fascinating matchup to analyze. Oh yeah...that Bailey could be in line for a pretty good year.

Endnote:

"Damnit, why can't I find a guy who can dance like that?"

Great job. Still kicking myself for not starting Matthews

Logic be damned in fantasy football. Unfortunately my season couldn't have started any worse with a loss and losing K Allen for the year. Things can only get better from this point hopefully.

Yeah, losing Keenan was supposed to be the first sentence in there...I screwed that one up somehow.

Time for the weekly picks

Shady over Smitty. Eli Manning's five TD performance is not enough as Smitty gets no help anywhere else.

Foot over Monkey. David Carr has a let down now that he is facing a NFL defense, but OBJ and Dez's games are more than enough to overcome it.

Barilko over Trudem. Luck to Moncrief is another winner.

Harold over Stomp. The big numbers put up by the Jets defense is not enough to keep Stomp ahead when DeMarco Murray and A J Green take the field.

Sportsboy over BK. BK is just not able to overcome the 41 points the Steelers hang on Cincinnati's defense.

Micro over OBX. Ryan Mathews big Monday night is enough to get OBX within a point, but not enough to get past Micro.

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Smitty over Shady in a very even match up. Eli goes nuts against the Saints to help Smitty pull this one out.

Monkey over Foot another close match up. Monkeys RB help him edge the Foot.

Barkilo cruises over Trudem, getting solid efforts thru out his line up.

Harold over Stomp with big games from Martin, Murray and Green.

Bk over Sportsboy, Brees has another big game to help BK pull out the win.

Obx over Micro, Ryan Mathews gives Obx just enough to edge out Micro.



These are my pick ems, lets hear everyone else give one.

 

[SoShady]

Stupid Forte ruining my night from Decker.

 

[Trudem]

no one likes me this week. I need the Denver D to come up big for me against his Luck/Manqueef connection.

 

[bksballer89]

Smitty over Shady in a very even match up. Eli goes nuts against the Saints to help Smitty pull this one out.

Monkey over Foot another close match up. Monkeys RB help him edge the Foot.

Bk over Sportsboy, Brees has another big game to help BK pull out the win.

Obx over Micro, Ryan Mathews gives Obx just enough to edge out Micro.

Taylor going for 30.4 points doesn't help my chances

 

[SmokingMonkey]

dammit, forgot about picking for our league before last night

That's OK, do It now.

 

[Sam Sportboy]

Me too...........I'll get it in tonight...........

 

[HaroldSeattle]

Stupid Forte ruining my night from Decker.

Good news @SoShady schedule as been redone, so no need to worry about Forte.

 

[SmokingMonkey]

I'll still give myself the nod over smitty, even with that nice night from Forte in buffalo

Monkey over smitty
Shady over Foot - alshon MNF for the W
Bar over cheesehead
Obx over shovel slayer
Harold over BK
cheater pick of the week, Sam over Stomp, which I might've gone the other way on if we didn't get to see TNF already

 

[SoShady]

Good news @SoShady schedule as been redone, so no need to worry about Forte.

Why is that? Think Harold wants to see my team 0-2.

Check the scoreboard on the Barbarian league.

 

[SoShady]

I see that it changed. Was asking why that was?

 

[HaroldSeattle]

I see that it changed. Was asking why that was?

Not sure if anyone else has looked ahead on the schedule, but right now, it has us playing divisional games the first 7 weeks of the season. Should be first 3 and last 3.

If I have to face Fuzzy a 3rd time, it had better be in the playoffs.

Well, it's entirely possible I dropped the ball there, but I never assisted the schedule assuming the system would automatically set everything the same way it was before. All I know for certain is there is no option to edit the schedule available now

It is the same way in the B league. We were talking about it a few weeks ago, you play someone in your division three times and there is one team you do not play.

Well shit..guess we should've looked at that a little harder before we got started

[QUOTE="canesandfinsfanatic, post: 8899486, member: 5611"]Screw it, if you are going to change these, you'll probably have to do it tomorrow so here's the B league also:
