The Commish Report: Week 2

Watching Monday Night Football from a bar in Utah I have to ask why do Bronco fans hate Kyle Orton? I'm really baffled by this. He's not the problem. Instead of sportin' Orton, the Denver Faithful really have it out for this guy. Fans this week collected $10K to post billboards demanding Fox put in Tim Tebow. He's not even the backup! Did you know last season Orton (87.5) had a better QB rating than Jay Cutler (86.3)? Programming Note: Mark Sanchez 75.3. Denver, it's your inability to stop the run or pick up a blitz that costs you games.....not Kyle Orton!

Buffalo put a beating on KC and stopped Charles in his tracks. If they can do the same against Run DMC and the Rrrrrraiders I'll consider them legit. Can the Jets play the Cowboys every Sunday night? The Ravens made the Steelers their drunk prom date for the weekend, but I'm not ready to hand them the division. It was one game. Patriots impressive. The Colts are doomed. And I will hate Cam Newton for his entire career. My Fins looked decent in their new offense but forgot how to play defense. Sigh....

Let's play a game. I'll tell you the Offensive Drive and you Tell me the Team. Ready?
1st and 10 (Run for loss)
2nd and 12 (Incomplete Pass)
3rd and 12 (False Start)
3rd and 17 (Delay of Game)
3rd and 22 (Incomplete Pass)
4th and 22 (Blocked Punt returned for a Touchdown by the other team)

You're welcome Steve.

Our league got off to a great start. Big wins from JetLovinJunior and Suck. E lost which we all expected. My mom grounded me worse than the time I [Insert childhood memory here]. Heather made a sad debut (has she even seen her team yet?) and Starfish was dealt no love.

On to this week's Matchups! (1-4 last week in my predictions....sad)

MATCHUP OF THE WEEK! Suck for Luck vs. What's Your Deal?: League Rookie versus League Rookie. Niner Fan versus Niner Fan. Both coming off big wins last week. These guys have a sports rivarly that covers golf, beer pong and tecmo bowl. I like that one has Tom Brady and the other has Philip Rivers and the Chargers Defense. Should be interesting once the dust settles. I'm picking Joe in this one as a Birthday Present. Joe wins by 10 and celebrates with cake and strippers.

Evil Shenanigans vs. Chaos N Suh: Kenny Britt set fire to fantasy benches everywhere last week. I can't even believe I drafted him and now he's a "must-start" wide-out. Seriously? As expected Brad has more than a few Lions on his team. I wish I was playing him later in the season when Stafford's on the sideline with a clipboard. I have a Lion on my team as well and may the "Best" Lion win....you see what I did there? Ah you wouldn't get it. Me in a close one.

Romosexual vs. Sexual Predator: Heather and Pittsburg both made sad week 1 efforts but I think they both rebound this week. Hillis against the Colts. Big Ben at home against Seattle. AJ against a sub-par Dolphins Secondary. I think she has the deck stacked. Heather by 10 points.

Mama Roberts vs. JetLovin: As the opening game of the season proved investing in the Rodgers to Jennings connection is a smart move. However I can't see Santana Moss or Beanie Wells doing anything close to what they did week one. I'm going to have to take Ana in this matchup. She's proving once again that she can draft a better football team than Eric. Junior by 16pts.

Starfish Loves You vs. E: I think Roddy White will have a tough Sunday Night. I think D Williams is past his prime. This will be a close, low scoring matchup in my opinion with neither team doing anything big. And I'll take my sister to win it.....because it's E. Starfish by 6pts.

GQ Magazine sent me a great offer, two years for twenty bucks. I really considered it until I saw their pick for the future face of the NFL. Clearly GQ is not a magazine for me.

I had a great time at Starfish and Romosexual's wedding last weekend. My sister looked so beautiful and it was a great event. The happily married couple will be in Medford next month and there's a pizza dinner reception thing we've put together on Sunday, October 16th from 2pm - 5pm at my parent's house. You're all invited! Please RSVP in advance.


Don't burn the day.
