Dear Diary,
Ah, yes, it is another week and I have a gained another win for the record books. This time, my foe was my poor assistant editor, Anthony Shingler. He thought he prepared for this week’s match against me; but in reality, I don’t think anyone in the fantasy football world was prepared for this.
My flex position running back, Rashard Mendenhall, had a career day. The Pittsburgh Steelers running man posted 29 carries for 165 yards in the defeat of the San Diego Chargers. The crazy thing is that Mendenhall didn’t have a single carry in week three, but came out as a force to be reckoned with this week.
My wide receivers have been doing a decent job putting up reasonable numbers. Torry Holt still disappoints me, so I’m thinking of trading him for a more consistent receiver. Reggie Wayne and Randy Moss are arguably the most reliable receivers in the NFL now. I’m hoping not to jinx myself, but their performances each week are continuing to impress me. My quarterback, Peyton Manning, deserves all the hype he is getting right now. Manning has helped his team jump to a 4-0 record, not to mention hearing the chants “M-V-P” already in the early games of the season. He put up 353 yards and two touchdowns in the Indianapolis Colts win over the Seattle Seahawks.
You may have noticed I haven’t mentioned much of Anthony or Marlon’s team. It is not that their teams didn’t do well, but their teams obviously didn’t do well enough to make it into this column. I continue to laugh at Marlon’s unfortunate circumstances. The team I beat last week, Denver Nation, handed Marlon his fourth loss this season, putting him at an abysmal 0-4. Anthony, who planned his victory speech early Sunday, Oct. 4, had to rethink his whole plan when he saw Mendenhall put up those numbers.
Maybe one day guys, right?,
