Fantasy Football Rant | Week 9
Posted on 10. Nov, 2011 by Redneck Genius.
We have a big announcement this week here in Fantasy Rant Land. Due to the fact I went to a state school, I’m 45 percent illiterate. So we have an editor now and her name is Meg. While we’re not sure if she throws like a girl, we do know that she is smart, funny [...]

Fantasy Football Rant | Week 8
Posted on 03. Nov, 2011 by Redneck Genius.
The regular NFL season isn’t quite at its official halfway point yet, but your fantasy season is. That means you’re pretty much either done or going to be done soon. How am I so sure about the state of your fantasy season being as bad as I guess it is? Because quality fantasy owners don’t read crap like [...]

Fantasy Football Rant | Week 7
Posted on 26. Oct, 2011 by Redneck Genius.
The overall fantasy production was slightly up this week, but was provided by people you don’t know, don’t have on your team and won’t repeat their performance next week. So… there you go. I don’t have all the questions, but Mr. Trebek has given me the answers. Let’s get started failing: 1. I’m a Broncos [...]

Help Dan Snyder Fuel His Yacht
Posted on 25. Oct, 2011 by nolongerfamous.
We recently reported that Dan Snyder, the lovable owner of the Washington Redskins, purchased a new yacht. Now the City Paper would like folks to know that fueling yachts is far from cheap. It Takes More Than 43,000 Beers to Fill Up the Fuel Tanks on Dan Snyder’s Boat? The real shocker for me during [...]

Fantasy Football Rant | Week 6
Posted on 19. Oct, 2011 by Redneck Genius.
With fantasy point production down across the board I’ve been able to take my two important teams (money involved = important) to 3-3 and have reinvigorated my chances of getting stomped in the playoffs. I hope you’ve been as lucky as I have been. Here we go: 1. The quarterbacks have gone to shit and the [...]

Fantasy Football Rant | Week 5

Al Davis died before this past weekend’s NFL festivities and it pretty much ate up every pregame, in-game and postgame segment on Sunday. Correct me if I’m wrong, but wasn’t this guy Captain Asshole in the Shithead Army just last week? He dies and all of sudden he’s Mother Theresa of the gridiron? Al Michaels called this guy [...]

Fantasy Football Rant | Week 4
Posted on 06. Oct, 2011 by almostfamous.
I really started loving Fantasy Football because it gave me some skin in just about every game played each week. It was exciting for a while. Now it’s just depressing. Instead of taking the loss of my one favorite team hard, I get the culmination of an entire league’s worth of letdowns to ponder very Sunday night. It’s like [...]

MSNBC: Redskins Owner’s New 224-Foot Superyacht Washington Redskins owner Daniel Snyder is famous for going after high-priced free agents. But his latest big-budget acquisition won’t be helping the team. The Redskins owner’s new multi-million dollar investment is of sea-faring sort: a 224-foot superyacht named the Lady Anne.

My season is in the toilet… it fell out of my pocket while I was trying to flush and now I’m pretty sure I’m going to leave it there. Is it really worth grabbing? No. Fantasy Football is about the pain and agony you bring on yourself for putting your happiness and social standing in the hands of [...]

Fantasy Football Rant | Week 2

It’s week two and you’re ready to quit your fantasy league – I know the feeling. I’m about half way in between quitting via releasing all my players to the waiver wire and quitting via moving out of the country never to return. Option one is very extreme and could upset the balance in the [...]

Fantasy Football Rant | Week 1
Posted on 13. Sep, 2011 by Redneck Genius.
We’re back for another season of infuriating fantasy football. For the next 16 weeks men and women will take time away from the letdowns in life they can’t control to focus on one they can – their fantasy football team. I’m here to laugh, cry and curse my way through this season with you once [...]

Stephen Strasburg Dresses Like Papa Smurf [Photo]

It’s about time this happened. The long standing tradition of rookie hazing day took place Sunday after the Nats 8-2 victory over Astros. The Washington Nationals’ veterans mandated that the “rookies” (term quite expanded in this case) to dress as Smurfs for the train ride to New York City, where they face the Mets for [...]

In an attempt to strengthen U.S. – China relations, Georgetown Hoyas and the Bayi Rockets put on an exhibition basketball game that didn’t quite end as expected. Chairs were thrown and there were definitely fouls from both teams and spectators alike as they started throwing water bottles at the players. The Hoyas left with a tied score [...]
