Fantasy Football

The Taco Perspective: Week 7

Belly Up Fantasy Sports has plenty of experts to help you make your team the best it can be. These guys work tirelessly to crunch numbers, evaluate matchups, and find data that will give you an edge. They also have an editor who lets his opponent choose his starting QB for him. Before you look to the experts to get your lineup set, come check out the Taco Perspective from BUFS’ resident fantasy idiot.

The Taco Perspective

Sorry for the wait everyone, I was trying to steam clean some stains out of the Mr. McGiblets costume. I took another absolute beating in Week 6, but his week I had a new strategy. Being projected to lose by a ton again I decided it was time to move on from Gardner Minshew II. I love his style, but he just wasn’t getting me the points I needed. Thinking back to an old strategy I saw Pete use on Ruspin, I asked my opponent who I should start at QB this week since I couldn’t find that Manning guy everyone is always talking about. It worked out pretty well.

So Long, and Thanks for Not Taking Lockett

For two weeks I tried to trade Tyler Lockett. I didn’t think he would recover from having to share targets with an actual action figure come to life. Then, this week, he had as many fantasy points as just about anyone I’ve ever seen. 45.50 in my league. He and Brady scored more than half of my points overall this week. So a big thanks to all my league mates for not accepting any of those trades! Really appreciate you guys looking out for me.

The trade I did manage to make was sending out Chris Carson and Allen Lazard. I hope the other owner is still happy with that deal. If not, maybe I’ll have to offer him a free weekend at the EBDBBNB, even though his EBDB only consists of the other dudes in the league.

The Taco Perspective: PLAYOFFS!?!?!?!

The win this week put me back into the playoff hunt, currently sixth in the standings. It’s time to buckle down this year, I really want to win this thing. I don’t mean putting time or effort into learning the nuances of the game. I mean it’s time to start making all of my opponents set my lineups for me. That seems to be my clearest path to victory. I’ve tried everything else. Taking performance-enhancing drugs, forgetting to set my lineup, taking performance-enhancing drugs, nothing else has worked this year.

Here’s hoping these fools can get their act together and put some winning teams on the field for me from here on out. This league isn’t going to accidentally win itself! Maybe having my first-round pick would help a little. I have to reach out to some Eskimo brothers in New Orleans and see just what the hell is going on there. How do you pull a hamstring when you’re already not playing football? Must have thrown one nasty punch.
