Piggy backing on my friend and lesser foe's post . I, unlike him, managed to win in all leagues this week, though not in stunning fashion. The wins are cute, as they have secured the #1 spot for me in all leagues, but they really don't matter. This is Week 3, for chrissake.
If you're winning your leagues at this point-- good. Well done. Great. Whoopty doo. You're still probably one or two devestating injuries away from taking advantage of the waiver wire like it was Lorraine McFly. Or your hot pocket players could start stinking like, well, hot pockets.

Response to Matthew Berry's Draft Day Manifesto
Good Morning God Hates Losers!
Today I want to put my two cents in about the infamous Draft Day Manifesto. The Manifesto is an epic post done every year and presented by Fantasy Guru Matthew Berry of ESPN. He is a writer that I truly respect and try to emulate with every post.
However, in the recent Draft Day Manifesto post, the first thing he talks about is Michael Vick. I would have no problem getting Vick on my team, but anyone who has read any of my posts will know that I don't find him a first round quarterback. Berry disagrees. You can read the entire Draft Day Manifesto here (don't worry kids, it will open in a new window). But I'll lay down the groundwork of the disputed statistics in his column.
Here we go.

2011 Fantasy Football Busts - Who to Avoid
I’m not a huge fan of naming fantasy football busts. Mostly because I don’t like the word. It’s misleading. Bust implies that they are going to fail miserably. And that only really happens because of injury or legal issues or playing for the Redskins. I haven’t once claimed to be a psychic, so I can’t accurately tell you which top 150 players are going to perform so dismally.
What I can provide for you are those players who will perform under expectations. I’m not saying that these guys will completely fail, I’m just saying that at the average draft positions (ADP) they are at right now, I would not take them. So here is my little list of the most overvalued players that you should avoid in your 2011 fantasy football draft.
