Week 10 Power Rankings: Columbus, Ohio, actually not an awful place. I highly recommend the Ugly Tuna salloona, home of the $17 fishbowl with optional $1 shot poured into your complimentary lizard. The rankings:
1. Miami Dolphins (2, Won versus Yarddogs, now 8-2) Alright, I’ll finally admit it: Dolphins is downright scary. 215 points with 69 left on the bench (okay yeah only 31 would have been an upgrade) = wow. Pros: 5 30+ scorers, led by the dynamic duo of Jay Cutler and “Easy” Eddie Royal (and yeah I stole that nickname from McCafferey but he retired so oh well) with 38 apiece. Cons: Kevin Faulk’s 2 and Lendale White’s 9 stand out, but with Julius Jones going for 17 and LJ returning from suspension this team is only going to get more and more dangerous. Could the wildcat go to the superbowl?
2. Pawtucket Colts (1, Lost versus Show, now 6-4) Still one of the most talented teams in the league, but little he can do right now with a bunch of crippled QBs. Though losing to No Show hurts more than most losses, even it he did go over 200 pts. Pros: The Jets defense sprang for 42 points this week. And they’ve actually done this all year with 2 20 plus games and 3 30 plus games so far. Cons: The QB total of 7 tells the story here, though Steve Smith’s 1 in Jake Delhomme’s game of suck didn’t do Colts any favors. If Colts can just survive for a few more weeks then Romo and the troops can come in and take names. But in a division that’s only separated by one game, can Colts survive?
3. Gotham City Generals (3, Won versus Crush, now 7-3) Huge win over Crush to keep within one game of homefield advantage. Though with only 156 pts in the win, clearly not a superpower at this point. Pros: No real high scores here, with Jamal Lewis’ 22 pacing player scoring. Fitzgerald is the MVP though for scoring the winning points on Monday night. Cons: McGahee’s 35 pts on the bench was a shame (especially with Stan Darsh only getting 4 for the Rams. More frightening, however, is the fact that Clinton Portis may not play versus the Cowboys in week 11. Gotham will have a lot of trouble without Portis around. 4. Pittsburgh Dukes (6, Won versus Medical Clinic, now 5-5) 257 pts with almost 100 on the bench. Dukes is making an argument to jump up the boards and it’s pretty effin convincing. Too bad he doesn’t read the boards :-P. Pros: Anytime AP drops 50 you’re pretty fucked as an opponent. Then you add 3 30s and see that Dukes beat Louisville with 4 guys alone. The rest was just icing. Cons: Donnie Avery went for 7 but that was the team low, so no real weak spot this week. The only foreseeable weak spot to this team is Brett Farve (wow who thought I’d ever say that) and even he went for 12 this week. Dukes is going streaking at just the right time.
5. Cape Canaveral Avengers (4, Lost versus Jets, now 5-5) Playing with one QB in a two team league will kill you, sucks the Browns game was on Thursday. But not a whole lot of good on the Avengers team this week otherwise. Pros: Jones Drew played great against Detroit (but anyone could) and Brandon Marshall bounced back after a rough last week. Cons: Santonio Holmes 5, Chris Johnson’s 4…ouch dude. Also, why 2 bench spots with 23 acquisitions left? Why wouldn’t you pick anybody up?
6. Scotland Yarddogs (5, Lost versus Dolphins, now 5-5) Almost flipped Dogs and Avengers because Yarddogs is much more consistent week in and week out. But Avengers has a much higher ceiling pointswise and so the rankings stay the same. Pros: 5 guys over 20, with Kurt Warner leading the team with 28. Cons: 5 guys under 10, with Bernard Berrian’s 0 leading the way. 0 from a WR1 is pretty sad.
7. New York Jets (7, Won versus Avengers, now 6-4) Jets is really starting to click as a team. The WRs were awful, but the RBs are good enough to carry this team quite a ways. Pros: 47 from Thomas Jones was huge, and Ryan Grant contributing is always nice. Plus a big congrats to Brady Quinn, who had 19 in his first NFL start. Cons: 1 from Reggie Brown, shame on you. 1 from Torry Holt…wow how the mighty have fallen. I’ll give you a 10th rounder for Holt…if you give me a 9th rounder with Holt.
8. Syracuse Crush (6, Lost versus Gotham, now 5-5) Tough loss for a team that really needs all the wins it can get. Pros: So I said don’t expect 52 pts from Giants backs and they go for 50 this week. Consider me corrected. Cons: Selvin Young should not have been starting and had 0, but Jame Delhomme’s 4 INT day and 3 pts proved costly as well. Bet you wish you had started Flacco, man is he a good rookie.
9. SC Showstoppers (10, Won versus Colts, now 5-5) Wow. So in preseason I said SC could threaten because there was a lot of talent on this team. And despite SC’s best efforts to lose by not keeping up with his roster some weeks, this week showed how amazingly good this team is when utilized to its fullest. Pros: 2 over 30 and 10 of 12 in double digits…that’ll do pig, that’ll do. Cons: None really. If you start players you will win SC, so thank you for fielding a decent team this week. This team could actually be a major player in the playoffs if this keeps up.
10. Delaware Blue Hens (9, Won versus Browns, now 4-5-1) Beat the league’s worst, but still a good in to keep Blue Hens within one game of the playoffs. Too bad the team will lose next week. Pros: Forte again leads the way, but this time Wes Welker helped out as well. Cons: Braylon turned human again and scored just 3 pts. Man has he been a colossal disappointment this year.
11. Louisville Medical Clinic (11, Lost versus Dukes, now 1-8-1) Looks like Louisville is aiming to lose out. Good luck to you in the race for the number one pick. Pros: DeSean Jackson still had 22 and the Vikings DEF went for 26. Cons: 80 pts on the bench, mostly coming from the duo of Peyton and Reggie Wayne. Spoiler team gone to waste.
12. Atlanta Browns (12, Lost versus Blue Hens, now 2-8) It’s over. Having just acquired 2 injured backs and change for some playoff pieces, this is officially the Megatron and Campbell show. Pros: Calin and Packers DEF both went for 18. Cons: Shaun Hill was 3rd with 16 pts. And 2/3’s of the team didn’t even make double digits, how sad.
Record on Last Week's Predictions: 4-2 (Finally getting good at this) Record on Season's Predictions: 26-27-1
Week 11 Predictions: Browns over Medical Clinic (but not because of talent) Show over Avengers (Gore is too good even with that goalline stumble) Colts over Crush (thought it’s going to be close, and Romo and Willie Parker will play big roles Dukes over Blue Hens Dolphins over Jets And in my pick for game of the week, Yarddogs over Gotham. Injuries to 2 QBs and Clinton Portis threaten to slow things down for Gotham this week, and I don’t think that Gotham gets lucky 2 weeks in a row. Yarddogs clinches his division with the win.

The Week 11 (you can't call it change when everybody worked for Clinton) power poll Pittsburgh Dukes 0.0259 (kicks BlueHens square in his one good chicken tooth and takes back the #1 spot) Miami Dolphins 0.0173 (like General Motors, #1 last week, this week not so much) Cape Canaveral Avengers 0.0165 (cuts Dukes $300K break on the property next door, trade approved, team wins. Wasn't this formerly a Chicago team?) Scotland YardDogs 0.0121 (earns the one and only playoff spot from the South) Delaware Blue Hens 0.0105 (serve up a McCain platter, comes with fried chicken and 170 pts/electoral votes) Pawtucket Colts 0.0091 (like a NE Republican, can't buy a win) New York Jets 0.0081 (with the right plays, could have posted the first 300pt game this year) Gotham City Generals 0.0078 (best to lose ugly with a 2 game cushion, still control their own destiny) S.C. Showstoppers 0.0061 (loses on the dead guy vote, looks to be DOA) Syracuse Crush 0.0059 (timely wins have this team one game out of the division lead) Louisville Juggarnauts 0.0036 (Nurses reclaim their Juggarnaut title, move into 11th) Atlanta Browns 0.0025 (on the 144th anniversary, Atlanta burns once again. The South is a shell of its former self)

Week 11 Power Rankings: "Shake It Up" is a song by American New Wave band The Cars from their 1981 album of the same name. Although appearing for the first time in 1981, it was actually written years earlier by Ric Ocasek, who composed the vast majority of the band's music. It also describes what I did to this week’s rankings. The results:
1. Pittsburgh Dukes (4, Won versus Blue Hens, now 6-5) Not quite as impressive as last week, and he’s still just beating awful teams, but as one of the few teams to finally be scoring over 200 every week he gets the top spot in this crazy week. Pros: Anaquin Boldin has become the top fantasy wideout this year and continued the trend with 37 pts. But 3 others were over 20 and 11 of 12 starters finished in double digits which is always nice. Cons: Kellen Winslow only went for 8, but Brady Quinn loves the TE and so he’ll get his catches again. Of more worry are Drew Brees and Andre Johnson, who have cooled recently after huge starts. If they heat up again, can anyone stop Dukes?
2. Miami Dolphins (1, Lost (by 130 pts!) versus Jets, now 8-3) An incredibly embarrassing week, upset doesn’t even begin to describe what happened. But everytime I drop Dolphins he drops 200 on somebody so I’m leaving this team at 2 to see what happens. Sorry for the jinx though/ Pros: When Larry “I beat up on women at clubs” Johnson leads your positional players in scoring (17 pts), something is very wrong. Cons: Ike Hilliard, Donte Stallworth, and Julius Jones combined for a whopping 1 point. Throw in weak performances by Santana Moss and Eddie Royal and you’ve got yourself a loss young man.
3. Scotland Yarddogs (6, Won versus Generals, now 6-5) This week Yarddogs gets the nod over Avengers due to his high score and Avengers close (Trent Edwards aided) win. Also have to throw some in division love his way. Pros: Michael Turner and Marion Barber lit it up this week, and you have to love Graham’s injury for this team as it points to a feature back job for the recently acquired Warrick Dunn versus an awful Lions run defense (you’re welcome). Cons: Berrian is still playing pretty badly, but Lee Evans’ 0 is shocking. He was targeted one time all game by Trent Edwards (on the very first INT versus the Browns). Apparently QBs just don’t know how to use WRs from Yarddogs team correctly, at least his RBs and QBs are good.
4. Cape Canaveral Avengers (5, Won versus Show, now 6-5) I still just don’t get this team, but after losing thanks to only one QB he went out and got a second to win (barely). It’s amazing how valuable a good QB is. Pros: MJD went nuts again with 30 and Eagles Def had 33. 6 other guys went into double digits. Cons: With the Seahawks seriously underperforming this year, Bobby Engram probably won’t do much. Luckily for Avengers, Ted Ginn is just getting hot (24 bench pts this week).
5. New York Jets (7, Won versus Dolphins, now 7-4) Wow. Absolutely creamed the number 1 team in the rankings. I’ve been fighting moving Jets up for a few weeks now, and now is the time. But how big can Jets be with the biggest game of the season this week against Crush with the division on the line. Pros: Matt Brady blew up for the Pats, going for 46 pts and setting career highs in just about everything he possibly could have (God I hope he got laid Thursday night). Combo that with Slaton’s 37 and Cardinals DEF 31 and you’ve got a victory over Dolphins’ score already. Cons: Tim Hightower’s 7 is extremely disappointing, but luckily Ryan Grant scored 36 on the bench, showing that he’s up to the task next week. With 124 bench pts to combine with 242 starter points, Jets is rolling right now.
6. Syracuse Crush (8, Won versus Colts, now 6-5) Similar deal with Jets, beat a top team by a ton. But scored less against a lesser team overall and so still ranked behind Jets. That changes with a win this week. Pros: TJ Houshmandamaramaski led with 35 pts, but the rest of his schedule looks brutal. Luckily the Bengals suck and will throw all day so maybe he keeps it up. Cons: Okay, so I asked for Joe Flacco and you said no, but you keep benching him. With his 21 pts on the bench this week and Eli’s 10 and Delhomme’s 8 in your lineup, will you finally consider starting him? And TO, with 7, continues to suck.
7. Gotham City Generals (3, Lost versus Yarddogs, now 7-4) I still like Gotham actually a lot more than this ranking suggests. But a lot of his stars are underachieving and it’s hard to see this team doing much of anything while that is the case. Pros: Fitzgerald goes for 30, but only 3 other starters even went over 10. That’s gonna hurt. Cons: 94 pts on the bench makes you think it should have been closer, but Peyton Hillis and Leon Washington weren’t exactly must starts. The QBs are still the main cause of death on this team, while guys like McGahee (4) and Burress (9) are a close second. From lucky overachiever to unfortunate underachiever, Gotham finally drops down in the rankings.
8. Pawtucket Colts (2, Lost versus Cuse, now 6-5) Bit by the injury bug, my once upon a time pick for Super Bowl Champ has fallen hard. Better luck next year dude. Pros: LT had 25, which is weak by last year’s standards, but also far and away the best score on the team this week. Cons: Earnest Graham’s 0 and season ending injury kills this team. Ricky Williams is not a championship winning RB2. And 0 pts from your K/DEF (and 25% of your team in general) will lose you a game any week.
9. SC Showstoppers (9, Lost versus Avengers, now 5-6) This one hurts, as it essentially knocked SC from playoff contention. But it was real close, and SC has some great pieces in place for next year. Pros: Frank Gore and DeAngelo Williams went over 30, while Tyler Thigpen’s 27 was also nice. (If it was me I trade Thigpen to a team like Gotham or Avengers for picks, he’s huge right now and could seriously help a playoff team). Cons: Antonio Gates’ 4 hurts, but so does Devin Hester’s 1. Though to be honest, being a team with Devin Hester as your #4 every week hurts a lot in general.
10. Delaware Blue Hens (10, Lost versus Dukes, now 4-6-1) Another team that fought hard but lost and will be at home this playoffs. The pieces aren’t as strong as SC’s but they still aren’t bad. Pros: Marshawn Lynch finally went over 100 yards and scored a wicked 40 pts, while a trio of WRs also went over 20 pts. Not too shabby. Cons: Low scores from guys expected to score low (like Chris Chambers and Vernon Davis) won’t win you games versus the league’s elite. Actually, any team that starts Vernon Davis won’t win many games anyways. And Addai’s 42 on the bench…man bad timing, right?
11. Louisville Medical Clinic (11, Won versus Browns, now 2-8-1) I think even the NFL Lions could beat the Browns right now, but a win is a win. Out of the cellar we go, next stop…still 11th place. Pros: A couple of 20’s, a couple double digits, nothing too fancy. Cons: I was really excited for this team to play playoff spoiler but it doesn’t look like that will happen with all the all stars scoring in the low teens. C’mon Louisville, let’s add some more wins to the AFC South!
12. Atlanta Browns (12, Lost versus Medical Clinic, now 2-9) Firesale in full effect, this team is awful. It’s funny because I am getting slightly better with pickups. But slightly better than awful is like coming in second in a syrup of ipecac drinking contest (has anyone seen that family guy episode, so funny). Pros: Calvin – 19, Campbell – 15, Shaun Hill -25 (and he could be yours for picks). Cons: Other than a 12 and 2 10’s, everyone else was in single digits. But Jabar Gaffney, the only guy still on my team from the regular (non rookie) draft hurt most. 25 pts on the bench. Goddamn.
Record on Last Week's Predictions: 2-4 Record on Season's Predictions: 26-31-1
Week 12 Predictions: Avengers over Brownies Yarddogs over Brian Westbrooks SC over Gotham (Gotham has a lot of talented players who aren’t playing up to their level, SC has a lot of suprises) Blue Hens over Colts (Graham gets injured and Colts is all but done, sorry dude) Dukes over Dolphins And in my pick for game of the week (and Dukes’ pick) Crush over Jets. Let's see if Cuse finally wins when I pick him to win.

Remix since you left out 2 teams AFC Playoffs: Dolphins, Gotham, and Dukes are in if they win out Avengers needs either Gotham to lose once while Avengers wins out and to have a higher overall pt total or Avengers needs Dukes to lose while Avengers wins out or Avengers needs to put up a shitload of pts and win out to beat Dukes on the tiebreaker Show needs to win out with Dukes and Avengers losing both games Blue Hens is eliminated
NFC Playoffs: Yarddogs clinched Jets clinches by winning out Colts and Crush have the same record and are 20 pts apart (Colts is ahead). So that'll be a heated battle for the third playoff spot. Browns and Medical Clinic are very very eliminated.

Week 12 Power Rankings: Heading into that intense last week of the season we still have a bunch of playoff spots to decide. With only 3 of 12 teams eliminated, this next week is going to be nuts. And I’m predicting wins for 2 of those 3 teams that got sent home.
1. Pittsburgh Dukes (1, Won versus Dolphins, now 7-5) Facing the second team in the rankings, Dukes continued to cruise. Those bye weeks may have killed Dukes, but fully stocked and full strength this team is a beast that is peaking at just the right time. Pros: Could’ve sworn Tom Brady was on the IR. But Randy Moss finally reappeared this week, going for a massive 43 pts against the Fins weak pass defense (Did anyone see Moss’ TD he got in one of last year’s games where he scored over 2 Dolphins and one of the 2 DBs hurt himself on the play. Yeah, Moss is that good). Cons: Kellen Winslow went for 2…so maybe I was just kidding last week when I said he’d come around. But when your TE is the biggest problem and you have 6 players go over 20 pts…I’d say you’re in pretty good shape.
2. Scotland Yarddogs (3, Won versus Louisville Jugs/Med Clinic/In 2009, now 7-5) Another team peaking at just the right time. The opponent was much less impressive than Dukes’, but you gotta love these 200 + pt wins. Pros: Damn this guy is lucky to be owning Michael Turner. Another 47 pts this week make him one of the top (if not the top) fantasy back of 2008, and a helluva keeper for next year. And Warrick Dunn’s 31 wasn’t too shabby (you’re welcome, enjoy him for the fantasy playoffs). Cons: Berrian still sucks and the Packers DEF went for -3. But the Packers DEF is too good to let that happen again so at least one of those is correctable.
3. New York Jets (5, Won versus Crush, now 8-4) Goddamn that Hansel is so hot right now! Of all the teams turning it on as the season ends, Jets by far is the hottest of them all. 4 wins in a row, the last two in hugely important games (the team with the most wins and a battle for the division). Maybe my super bowl will change to Jets – Dukes? Pros: Cassel does it again with 39. I hear he’ll be richly rewarded next year, but it’s hard to believe that he’ll keep this up in a different offense. Anyone care to disagree? And Torry Holt scored 16…wow welcome back to the fold maybe? Cons: So many cons…this team is scary but it’s amazing how many pts he scored with so many bad performances. 8 by Driver, only 10 by Orton…200 + is nice but it helps to have your good players play big.
4. Miami Dolphins (2, Lost versus Dukes, now 8-4) Once upon a time, Fins was a Golden God (and on drugs). But now it looks like the real Fins has finally showed up, with 2 sad showings in consecutive weeks. Pros: Ravens DEF had 43 and a pair of chiefs (Gonzo and LJ) combined for 48. That’s more than half Fins’ total. Cons: Lendale White had 0, Julius Jones 4, Eddie Royal 2. All the iffy players that carried Fins to so many wins are showing chinks in the armor and Fins is falling down the boards as a result. It was a good run though.
5. Syracuse Crush (6, Lost versus Jets, now 6-6) Good showing, it always sucks to lose when you score 200 plus pts. But that’ll happen, and now Crush needs a win and a bad showing by Colts to ensure his playoffdom. Pros: TO pulled a page out of Randy Moss’ book and went for 48 pts in a ridiculous display of pure awesome. Lance Moore’s 34 wasn’t too shabby either, and was interesting to watch Monday night as he battled 3 Jets players for the win. Cons: Awkward bench pts. I teased Cuse about Flacco and you started him and Delhomme outscored him by a ton. Folk and the Boys blew up but Prater got -1 as Cuse’s starter. And the backs just kept on ailing, as Willie Parker did little in his return and Brandon “Big Baby” Jacobs was hurt as well. Gonna need those big boys if playoff aspirations are going to be achieved.
6. SC Showstoppers (9, Won versus Generals, now 7-5) This ranking has a lot more to do with some suckiness in the league than it does SC’s awesome. But with an upset win over superpower Dukes this week SC is in the playoffs. With a loss SC still has a prayer, but it’s not much of one. Pros: Thigpen kept the dream alive with 25 pts against a pretty good defense while DeAngelo Williams lit it up with 31 pts to lead the team. Cons: A 1, a 3, 2 5’s and a 6 made this final scorecard, and that is definitely not playoff caliber. But you’d think Frank Gore and Antonio Gates would normally score higher than that, and so I give SC a decent chance of winning this week, especially after beating Gotham this past week to stay alive.
7. Gotham City Generals (7, Lost versus SC, now 7-5) With a playoff lock in hand, Gotham was unable to pull out the victory. The Generals still essentially control their own destiny (win and they’re in), but this team is stumbling and has now lost 2 straight when the games matter most. Pros: Clinton Portis led the way with 31. If he gets back to midseason form after a couple of weeks then lookout. Cons: Burress, Brandon Lloyd and Greg Olsen went for the trifecta…of 0’s that is. When ¼ of your team scores nothing…it’s pretty hard to pull out a win.
8. Cape Canaveral Avengers (4, Won versus Browns, now 6-6) I had Avengers ranked pretty high last week, but that was before the Trent Edwards fiasco, and at 6-6 he is basically out of the playoffs and a non factor. That is, unless he beats Gotham this week and gives SC a playoff chance. Pros: MJD’s 20 led the way. Pretty unimpressive bunch. Cons: Highest score (Issac Bruce’s 31) on the bench, so that sucks. But not even having 2 starting QBs…tsk tsk. I know the Edwards thing bit you in the ass but c’mon boy, at least try to be competitive. Mark Brunell. Really?
9. Delaware Blue Hens (10, Won versus Colts, now 5-6-1) Huge win, lots of pts…it’s really a shame that the middle of Delaware’s season was a shambles, because otherwise the Blue Hens could be making waves right now. Guess they’ll have to settle for .500 this week when the Fins come to town. Pros: 84 pts from the RBs, 70 pts from the WRs, 42 pts from the DEF…wow this team lit it up. Cons: 228 pts…and that’s with a -1 from Donovan McNabb. Not a bad week I’d say.
10. Pawtucket Colts (8, Lost versus Blue Hens, now 6-6) Technically Colts has about as much chance at making the playoffs as Cuse does as they have the same record. But Cuse faces the lowly Jugs and Colts pulls the red hot Jets. Let the losing streak continue to 4 games my friend. Pros: Pierre Thomas tried to make it happen with a killer 35 pts on Monday night. But alas, it was not meant to be. Cons: Bulger gets hurt, Westbrook looks hobbled, Witten is still hurting…this team fell from greatness and the blame lies on the injury bug. My condolences, get well soon.
11. Louisville Needs to stop changing his team name lol (11, Lost versus Dogs, now 2-9-1) Jugs is a team that’s just dying to be a playoff spoiler. Trades all his good players and still puts up 188. Pros: Steve Smith (the good one) and Tony Romo inspire a little faith in the future and Louis’ recent acquisitions by combining for 60 pts. Not too shabby. Cons: Vikings DEF finally plays up to it’s preseason billing (40 pts) but doesn’t start. The Cowboys did pretty good too, but it’s a shame to leave 18 pts on the bench in any game.
12. Atlanta Browns (12, Lost versus Avengers, now 2-10) Pathetic. Really ought to have been a win, but a few bad calls and a few week games lead to, you guessed it, a loss. Pros: Calvin – 19, Campbell – 20. Mark Bradley’s 16 wasn’t bad either. Cons: If Jabar Gaffney started it’s a win. If the Bills DEF started over the shitty Broncos it’s a win. If I went with my gut and started Hill over Rosenfels it’s a win. This hurts more than that 1 pt loss to Dogs early in the season. But next year Browns is coming.
Record on Last Week's Predictions: 5-1 (and I originally had Jets beating Cuse but switched it when Cuse said he always win when I pick him, so that almost counts as a win). Record on Season's Predictions: 31-32-1
Week 13 Predictions: Yarddogs over Browns Jets over Colts Dukes over SC (but it’s gonna be hella close even though Dukes has way more star power) Gotham over Avengers Blue Hens over Fins (Dolphins limp into the playoffs) Game of the week (upset city!): Brian Westbrooks over Cuse in a thriller. What can I say, I hate them Giants and I love playoff spoilers.

colts are having hard time scoring so even if i was upset id prolly still make it.jacobs will be back this week he was just resting and the only move i wish i had back was playing prater vs folk.
