Top 10...Bottom 5: Week Ten

-
I'm once again pressed for time, so I won't go into a long introduction. It was a bad week for QBs, with concussions abound. Fantasy players, adjust accordingly, after crying of course. Here we go:

TOP TEN

1. Houston-I'm taking full credit for calling Houston. Please address all apologies can be emailed to vancetradamus@irule.com
2. Atlanta-I'm only docking them one spot. The Saints offense can still play with anybody. Matt Ryan is still MVP.
3. Green Bay Packers-A week off to get healthy might spell trouble for everybody not named Green Bay.
4. Baltimore Ravens-Fake kick, up by a few hundred? Yep. Stay classy Baltimore.
5. Denver-I don't even have anything else to say about Peyton Manning. Amazing doesn't do him justice.
6. Pittsburgh-Byron Leftwich is starting his windup now, that way the release will be ready by the time the game starts.
7. Chicago-If Culter doesn't play, who will I make snarky comments about during the game? Wait, Jason Campbell is the backup? We're good.
8. San Francisco-Welp, that was one ugly OT. Also, the worst timed illegal formation ever.
9. Tampa Bay-Avast ye bilge rates! The Buccaneers be hot. Don't sleep on 'em or you'll walk the plank mateys. Arrgghh.
10. New England-They lost ground simply for not blowing out the Bills.

HONORABLE MENTIONS

Indianapolis-I'm nominating myself as head of the Reggie Wayne to the HOF club.
New York Giants-I include them only as a way to congratulate the Bengals.

BOTTOM FIVE

28. Philadelphia-Good thing they fired Juan Castillo. He was terrible.
29. Carolina-Well, at least they can use that top 5 pick to help fix the defense.
30. New York Jets-(Insert Sanchez/Rex Ryan/Jets joke here) They're awful.
31. Jacksonville-File under: Things I never thought I'd say: Blaine Gabbert is being held back by the rest of the Jaguars.
32. Kansas City-No 1-8 team should ever dance for any reason...ever. Karma is real.

MVPs of the Week

Andy Dalton-Color me biased, but he was terrific.
Adrian Peterson-Rumors of the demise of AP may have been premature.
Drew Brees-Out-dueled Matt Ryan.

Goats of the Week

Michael Turner-A person of his size should be able to get 1-yard.
Eli Manning-He does realize he's still allowed to throw TD passes right?
Mark Sanchez-Might be the only QB that can make Tebow look great by comparison.

My Grandfather

-
My grandfather was always larger than life. His massive pot belly preceded the rest of him by a few seconds wherever he went, but I'm not talking about that. His booming voice could be heard, as he called for his chickens, far and wide across the property we shared when I was growing up, but I don't mean that either. He wasn't just my mother's father, my neighbor, and the slightly crazy guy who talked to chickens on his little farm. He was the farm. Even as a small child, he seemed ancient, with a grey buzz-cut, weathered skin, and rough, gorilla-sized hands. Those hands were something. His balled-up fist was the size of a watermelon, and it was easy to imagine that if you angered him, those hands could twist off any appendage that he wished. Even as an old man, he looked like he was a just a few years removed from bench-pressing a tank. He also moved slowly, sometimes with a limp, and could be heard sighing anytime he stood up from the couch where he took his daily n...

My Week 14 Recap

-
We're in the process of closing out the season, and the good teams are showing it, while the bad teams are, well, really bad. This week the Packers flex, the Cowboys flop, the Jags romp, and the Broncos do it again. Week 14 Power Rankings: 32. Indianapolis Colts-I really don't see how they could possibly win a game at this point. Move over Lions, you've got company. 31. St Louis Rams-Injuries have killed them, but injuries had nothing to do with not getting Stephen Jackson the ball on the goalline. That's pure idiocy. 30. Cleveland Browns-The defense held Pittsburgh to 14 points. Unfortunately for them, if a team can score 10 against the Browns, it's enough. 29. Tampa Bay Buccaneers-How bad is this team you ask? They gave up 41 points to the Jags, a team whose season-high up to that point had been 20 points. THAT'S MORE THAN DOUBLE THEIR PREVIOUS BEST. Raheem Morris, go stand in line with Haley and Sparano. 28. Kansas City Chiefs-Todd Haley goes from loo...

WWE Recap: Saturday Night Main Event (March 1988)

-
We open with the usual introductions from the wrestlers participating in the show. Hulk Hogan tells the camera that "He will never bow. He will never break." I'm guessing that's where Breaking Benjamin got the idea for the song. Ok. Maybe not. Anyway..... Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake vs Greg "The Hammer" Valentine w/ Jimmy Hart These two are former tag team partners, and they did mention that in the pre-match interviews, which was good story-telling. Beefcake's ring attire leaves little to the imagination, and Jesse Ventura asks Vince McMahon if that excites him. Vince responds that Elizabeth excites him. Wild. As the action starts, they have a little back and forth. Brutus hits a high knee that takes The Hammer off his feet. A boot to the face follows, and Beefcake struts like Ric Flair. A pair of atomic drops are hilariously sold by Valentine. The referee steps in between the two as they grapple in the corner, and Valentine takes the op...
