There is a really good Texas A&M version, but you'd probably have to be an Aggie to appreciate it.

I can appreciate videos with only monosyllabic words.

OK, I saw the jersey pic and had to share my collection (pretty sure I've never posted it on AZ). It goes back to the early 90's. Two are missing (C Bailey and R Smith) because they are hanging on the wall in the guest room. This was at my work the Friday before Super Bowl.

UCF, you posted it in last season's thread right before the SB.

Great collection though. You should add a Lynch in there

Ah, gotcha. That's not the only time my memory has failed me

Up next is CJA (since my last name is Anderson). Lynch is likely a future purchase though!

On another note, T Taylor lit it up on my bench last night! Of course he gets me 5 points last week in my starting lineup (couldn't start Rivers against KC in KC). Then he goes off against the Jets D with a hobbled Watkins. There's really no place for logic in fantasy football!

Not sure why you'd bench Rivers for Taylor on Week 1. Too soon to play matchups IMO.

IMO it's never too soon to play matchups. Of course my opinion has bit me in the ass two weeks in a row so what do I know! Unless there's a great deal of turnover in players/coaches you have a pretty good idea of what a defense will be based on prior year(s). Rivers historically has sucked against KC (at least the past few years), particularly in KC.

It wasn't just my opinion though, every "expert" had Taylor ranked higher and I saw more than one article stating he was a sleeper in week 1 while Rivers was a "sit em".

Yeah I don't follow the AFC West closely for obvious reasons. Sometimes the analysts overthink it IMO but it could've went either way.

damn, what happened to the Packers? And wow, I have to admit, I never thought much of Sam Bradford, but he's lighting it up tonight (and sucks about A.Peterson)

AP eclipsed the big 30 and combined with that, has had a lot of carries throughout his career. I would be surprised if he ever eclipses 1200 yards in a season ever again.

Fucking Dolphins. Even Jimmy G pwned our asses. Game was a laugher until Jimmy went down. And of course I dropped Bennett. Thought for sure Gronk would be back and the Fins D would show up. At least the 2nd half was exciting while we pounded beers.

I picked up Rodgers very early in our FFB draft and first two games have been uninspiring to say the least. Of course I'm playing someone who has Nelson... . I grabbed Matt Ryan in the last round and I'm wondering now if he isn't the better starter going forward....

Two games and the Hawks have what, 1 TD and 3 FG? The D looks fantastic. Not sure where our offense went....

As a Vikings fan I was super happy with the game. When Bridgewater got hurt I was like oh fuck. Bradford fell right into place with our offense. Him and Diggs look like they're going to be a force. AP had
a few good blocks but really didn't contribute much. I hope the injury is nothing serious. Packers defensive line was strong. Was really putting the pressure on Bradford.

As a Giants fan, i am happy they won their first two games. Two opponents they should beat if they want to make the playoffs this year. I like how McAdoo took 3 knees on the 1 yard like then kicked the game winning field goal with no time left. I guess he and the coaching staff didn't want a repeat of last years heartbreaking losses.

Bradford did look good last night. It did not look like he has only been with the team for a few weeks.
