NFL Week 6

Holy testicle Tuesday that was a fun week!  Coach fights, coach injuries, and Sexy Rexy getting benched?!  There are quite a bit of talking points to get to, so let's dive in:

- I don't know who's right or wrong, but I DO know that Jim Harbaugh would win in a fight between him and Jim Schwartz.  I know Schwartz is hilarious and motivating, but I'm certain Jim Harbaugh would beat the taste out of Schwartz's mouth, kick him in the stomach, and deliver a Stone Cold Stunner. 

Pictured: Jim Schwartz getting stunnered.
Harbaugh has taken Mike Singletary's 49er roster and created a winner.  It is so unfathomable, I have no idea how to explain it, but just know that I cannot act like I'm not impressed. 

It's the pleats... of the pants...
- Sexy Rexy... not sexy at all.  I actually started Rex in my Yahoo! league where my team is terrible and Phillip Rivers was on a bye.  This did NOT yield great results.  It was about as successful every move the characters from "Walking Dead" that involved trying to protect the kids of the group.  I will certainly lose in that fantasy league and the Sex Cannon will certainly lose his job in real life.  Mike Shanahan is as loyal to his quarterbacks as John Gruden.  That is to say, he's not. 

- Sean Payton sustains a torn MCL and broken tibia!  Unreal.  I know he was trying to be tough, but damn dude, get out of the way.  Everyone could see the play was headed right for ya!  Which is worse, a dumb highlight that is shown a couple times of you getting out of the way, or straight up breaking your leg?  There is no shame in a coach moving out of the Sean.  P.S., c'mon Drew Brees- you gots to get that ball in the end zone! 

- And on to da Bears!  They made the Vikings look like a JV high school team because frankly, outside of Jared Allen and Adrian Peterson, the Vikings are about as good as a JV high school team.  I'm sure the NFL was embarrassed overall (and apparently, so was Donovan McNabb's mom as she was seen leaving the game), but wow did that victory cleanse my brain from the stink of the game against the Lions.  I'll enjoy it today, but at 3-3, the Bears have to find a way to beat the Bucs in London on Sunday.  If they lose, it's right back to "do or die" time.  The O-Line did look much better against a stout Vikings rush attack.  Keep building on that effort... and by that, I mean don't listen to Mike Martz. 

Every time you kick to Devin Hester, you will see his ass as he runs by you.

Fantasy Football Update:

MSFL:

Murder Panties 152 - Mr. Brownstone 96

Brownhole still has Brandon Marshall tonight, but supposedly he's getting kicked out before the 2nd quarter and won't be able to score the 60 points needed to beat me.  My team is coming on strong in this league.  Ahmad Bradshaw was the hero of the week. 

Cali Not Keepers:

Peppermill High Rollers 97 - Team CAN-AS-ASAP 96

I have no idea what the hell this guy's team name means, but I do know we were tied atop the league at 4-1.  The third 4-1 team lost as well and I escaped with a one point victory thanks in part to Devin Hester and the Bears' D.  Suck it.  My team is the best.  If you don't like it, then someone beat me. 

Family and Friends:

CORE 83.12 - Bros B 4 Shiancoes 97.32

I love it when people steal popular fantasy names that make their way around the web.  Oh well, I guess I can't talk because I started Rex Grossman for a whopping -2.28 points.  My team is an embarrassment.  I can't believe I actually missed Phillip Rivers' terrible play this week.

So there it is.  As bad as last night's game was, tonight's Monday Night game is worse.  I might do accounting homework instead of watching this dreadful game.  I also hate Mark Sanchez.

You mean you won't be glued to the television watching Shonn Greene and Daniel Thomas get 3 yards per carry? Who knows, maybe Plaxico carries a pistol onto the field and accidentally shoots Chad Henne on the sideline. That's must see tv.

Wow... and I thought the Vikings were BAD. The Dolphins are so bad, Brandon Marshall is going to shank someone before the end.
