(11-04-07) - THIS IS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE MOST UNPREDICTABLE AND UNBELIEVABLE FANTASY SEASON EVER. JUST WHEN WHEN WE REALLY THOUGHT WE HAD SEEN IT ALL, PETERSON SETS AN ALLTIME NFL SINGLE GAME RUSHING RECORD WITH 296 YARDS AND AT THE SAME TIME HE TIED TOM BRADY WITH THE HIGHEST SINGLE GAME FANTASY PERFORMANCE OF THE YEAR AND IT'S ALSO THE HIGHEST SINGLE GAME PERFORMANCE IN THE LAST 5 YEARS AT 52 FANTASY POINTS. THIS IS PROBABLY THE BEST DAY FOR A RUNNING BACK EVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE NFL. GOOD GOD HE CANNOT BE STOPPED!

(10-21-07) - THIS FANTASY SEASON HAS PROBABLY BEEN THE CRAZIEST EVER. PLAYERS ARE BLOWING UP WITH ABNORMALLY HUGE FANTASY POINTS WEEK AFTER WEEK WHILE INJURIES ARE GOING AROUND THE NFL LIKE THE FLU. IN WEEK 2, CARSON PALMER HAD 51 FANTASY POINTS WHICH WAS THE BIGGEST SINGLE PLAYER PERFORMANCE IN 5 YEARS. JUST WHEN WE THOUGHT WE HAD SEEN IT ALL, GOD SENDS DOWN HIS SON FROM THE FANTASY HEAVENS, AND HIS NAME IS TOM BRADY. IN WEEK 7, TOM BRADY PASSED FOR 6 TOUCHDOWNS AND ENDED UP WITH 52 FANTASY POINTS TOPPING CARSON PALMER'S PERFORMANCE OF WEEK 2. TOM BRADY IS ON PACE TO SET MULTIPLE NFL RECORDS AND ALSO BECOME THE GREATEST FANTASY PLAYER TO EVER LIVE. AS THIS IS WRITTEN IN WEEK 7, TOM BRADY HAS 2125 YARDS PASSING WITH 27 TOUCHDOWNS AND HIS TEAM IS 7-0. HE'S LIVING A DREAM LIFE.

HOW'S 46 POINTS FOR A FANTASY AFTERNOON? PRETTY GOOD. THE ROOKIE RUNNING BACK CATAPULTED HIMSELF INTO THE LEAD FOR THE ROOKIE OF THE YEAR AWARD AND NOW HAS 3 STRAIGHT GAMES WITH AT LEAST 100 YARDS. HE'S ALSO DEVELOPED A NOSE FOR THE END ZONE.

(9-23-07) - IN WEEK 3 THE EAGLES WORE THEIR BIZARRE ORIGINAL BLUE AND YELLOW UNIFORMS FROM THEIR INAUGURAL SEASON IN 1933. WHAT WAS REALLY BIZARRE WAS THE FANTASY PRODUCTION FROM DONOVAN MCNABB, BRIAN WESTBROOK, AND KEVIN CURIS OF THE EAGLES. THOSE 3 PLAYERS COMBINED FOR 131 FANTASY POINTS!
