TMX week 13 review

Week 13 is done and Tmx is back with the review(Had to take the holidays off)!!

 Setitfgit is still holding strong at the top holding off Beachbums while Dmc, Favorite New Kid and even Black Dynamite fight for a spot in the money!! Jerkshots could get hot and make a move while Slippery Wizards, Sflabo, In Peyton We Trust are trying to stay away from Nutsway who has taken over the cellar. Tmx made rare contact with Iggles originator and asked him how the Iggles came about? He said it happened when he saw people starting players who were not playing or just plain sucked and gave the team nothing, in some cases literally gave them ZEROS. Hmmm well Iggles apparently with no bye weeks and everyone jockeying for position that is still happening!! Three teams posted ZEROS( Beachbums, Setitfgit, Jerkshots) with starters and one team( In Peyton we Trust) had a one point effort!!

Therefore there is still a need for ALL IGGLES. Lets get to it!!

QB                      FOLES                       29PTS                              NUTSAWAY
RB                      TATE                         33PTS                              IN PEYTON WE TRUST
RB                      S.JAX                        20PTS                              JERKSHOTS
WR                     HARTLINE                  28PTS                              IN PEYTON WE TRUST
WR                     WHITE                      24PTS                               NUTSAWAY
TE                      H.MILLER                   12PTS                              SFLABO
K                        VINATIERI                  16PTS                              BEACHBUMS
D                       PANTHERS                  19PTS                              SLIPPERY WIZARDS

    Nutsaway in last place put two teams on All Iggles and the suddenly fading In Peyton We Trust added 61pts to the mix!! With teams moving around all week and the weekly price up for grabs its alarming that this is happening. Tmx always here to help found out that #skzalovestwitter is monitoring all tweets and helps people out!! This week he somehow helped out the usually waiver wire avoidist Nutsaway and told him to get Foles and start him over Brees. Nutsaway should have listened, #skzalovestwitter.
Four weeks left and starters may be resting on some team so owners have to make the right plays to make moves!! Lets try NOT to let the Iggles put up big numbers this week!!!



Now onto players that were started.
This weeks winning team was Slippery Wizards with 182. Wizards got TWO fifty burgers from Decker/Gordon tough not to win with that output
2nd was Setitfgit with 164, they are in first for a reason getting 5 players over 20pts
3rd place was Black Dynamite with 159 who also got a 50 burger from Jeffries
4th place also with a 50 burger was In Peyton We Trust, Peyton put up the 50 and the team got 144
5th was Dmc with 144 Cam and Ap played like studs
6th was Beachbums 130 who went to the wire and hit gold with Mcown
7th place was Sflabo with 129 who rode Wilson and Monday night action.
The bottom 3 were Favorite New Kid; Nutsaway and Jerkshots.

Tmx called Jerkshots, wr Jarret Boykins a waiver wire stud who this week put up a ZERO. Hey Boyks its TMX
whats going down? " TM............(phone rustling) sorry Jarrett can not and will not comment on his performance in accordance with the pending legal action being taken forthwith against TMX by complaintant Jerkshot Inc". Oh here we go Jerkshots let it go. " we will have no comment per our team policy and legal team, try calling Robfrey they seem to love to talk" Well I guess we are getting no comments from Jerkshots. Tmx next call hottest player in fantasy Josh Gordon. Hey Josh its TMX whats good? "Yo TMX hows it be? I'm just sitting here listening to Redman watching Half Baked with my boys hows everything?" Whoa whoa Josh be careful you know you got suspended for 4 games before you were traded twice in ADSL and found a home with the Slippery Wizards "nah nah TMX ain't like that no more I'm getting high on 50 burgers now brah, you see i put up two in a row with no name qbs? Heard we are pulling in some cat off the street this week, wont be easy but i'm heading out to practice? Peace, love and 50 burgers TMX. Gordon gotta fly" Well there you have it Josh Gordon looks to be a sure fire top pick next year if this keeps up!!

 The season is winding down and its been a wild wild one with injuries and each week a monster performance coming out of nowhere. So far the Setitfgit team has been able to ride the Detroit offense to and impressive run but as we've learned one good week can propel a team. The trade deadline is the 5th and TMX  knows that there are teams looking to deal for example all Iggles star Sjax is being heavily shopped so answer your phones and make a deal. TMX has its ears to the streets so lets see what goes down. Good luck in week 14. TMX out

December to remember

I was going to write this in an email to the expecting parents but I figured why not share with the world instead.

Dear Mr. and Mrs. MacPhail,

Now that you are having a December baby there are a few rules to follow:
1. Never ever wrap their birthday gift in Christmas wrapping paper.
2. Never give them a combo birthday/christmas gift - EVER.
3. Do not name them some seasonal name, such as Joy, Holly, Merry or Kris.
4. Do not skimp out on their gift since Christmas is coming (here is some Happy meal toy child), no one told you to be fucking 9 months ago.
5. Do not attempt to throw a birthday cake out during a Christmas get together.
6. If you are going to attempt any of the things above then just celebrate their birthday in July.

As you can see December babies/birthdays are important to me. I've been fucked too many times by assholes, including my own parents.

23 shopping days...

till Christmas!! Plenty of shopping time available. I am still a size 38 x 32 pants and 2 XL in shirts.

This is what I learned this weekend (just a quick 12 pack to start the week right):
1. Black Friday, Small Business Saturday and Cyber Monday are all within days of each other. Maybe you should spread that shit out.
2. You start to feel old when Guns n' Roses and Metallica start playing on the classic rock station.
3. People who give themselves nick names should get a kick in the dick.
4. With Facebook and other social media why are there still class reunions?
5. Still no baby MacPhail yet.
6. If you go to Pizzeria Regina and wait almost a hour in 35 degree temps and you don't use Luey Juice then you should of gone to Half Time Pizza.
7. The 30 oz tomahawk rib-eye chop from Alba in Quincy is fucking legit.
8. Since when does the DMV send out reminders that your license is expiring.
9. Home made turkey soup is awesome.
10. What are your top 5 Christmas movies? And is Die Hard on that list?
11. Did Paul Walkers death break the internet?
12. The worst part of the Christmas season is the fucking Elf on a Shelf.

See you next week.

Thanksgiving Bitches

Yes, one of the best holidays of the year is on the horizon - Thanksgiving. I love me some turkey and stuffing. Sorry I didn't post yesterday but 17 degree days really put a damper on my spare writing time.

This is what I learned this weekend:
1. I do not know how people work the over night shift. That is for the birds.
2. Little baby MacPhail is due tomorrow. Everyone loves babies right! You know its going to be a girl right?
3. People are all excited that Hanukkah and Thanksgiving fall on the same day. Whats the big deal? Turkeys kosher right?
4. Do people still go out for Thanksgiving eve?
5. Mike G has a friend selling a used Corvette if you know anyone who is interested.
6. I used to like Subway subs but they really blow now. The meat to bread ratio is way off.
7. They still give out tetanus shots? I had to get one during a physical.
8. The Brown Jug pizza is 100% better than Santarpios.
9. Does anyone go out to a restaurant for Thanksgiving dinner, rather than cook? Just a question.
10. If I bought a turducken I would cover that shit in bacon while it cooked. It would be a Porturducken.
11. My bathroom is finally done, just waiting on the glass doors to be installed.
12. Since Xmas is coming here is a gift for that Star wars fan in your life.
13. Have you seen this Meet The Sloths on Animal Planet? Fucking awesome.
14. I don't understand the love with Dr. Who. Can someone explain this to me?
15. There is no need for Christmas movies or music to be on before Thanksgiving.
16. Anyone have any suggestions for a venue where Mario should get married? I guess Atlantis is out.
17. Kelly Armstrong has moved outta Southie and back to the burbs.
18. I have said it before and I will say it again there should not be any Thursday night NFL games.

I hope that everyone has a safe and happy holiday weekend.

Boo to me

So last night while bullshitting back and forth on texts I realized that I didn't post things I learned this week. What a knucklehead I am(still trying to curb my swearing). Then I get the TMX review to post and it reminded me again. So here it is.

This is what I learned this weekend:
1. When Riccio's wife is away, Sean becomes a candidate for father of the year.
2. It is not too late to bribe Chrissy to become godmother or godfather for his unborn child.
3. Random text with nothing more than a blunt rude yet funny statement are the best.
4. Looks like Rio may of found his 1st home in Saugus, it has been a long process but it may be coming to an end.
5. The Annual Whitley street hockey game is on. Saturday, December 14 at 12 noon. Be there or be Smiddy.
6. People are still posting gym selfies?
7. Is there any thing worse than not being sick enough to be bed ridden and hopped up on meds but achy and not right where you can't really get anything done?
8. Did you know Nickerson can see the Hollywood sign from her work office?
9. Where were you Saturday? Not stacking this:

                                 13 feet by 5 feet back row 8 feet by 4 feet front row

10. What bout Sunday? Looks like Demo day:

11. Jim Plunkett is still alive and kicking. He played at the Beach Comber last Friday.
12. Buffalo Wild Wings does not charge for the UFC fights.
13. We as a whole should do more for our Veterans. There needs a more concerted effort to help these people who have done so much for our country.
14. Has anyone seen Tom Newton? Haven't heard or seen him in a while. Is he on the lamb?
15. How do I become governor of Patriots Nation?
16. Has anyone else caught this Fantasy show on NBC sports channel, Thursday nights at 6:30? Shaun King(or @realshaunking) has not missed a buffet since he stopped playing in the NFL.

17. Those tornadoes out in the Midwest were crazy!
18. How long are you supposed to fast for before getting a physical?

Till next week. As always I will try to do better.

TMX week 11 review

Week 11 is in the books.

There are only 6 weeks for people to make their push for the money and for the Slippery Wizards to try and get out of the refurnished basement he's been in all season!! The top 6 teams are separated by less than 100 pts so the money is still up for grabs!! Nutsaway is deliquent on the fees and losing 10pts a week Tmx is trying to schedule a TMX TELETHON to raise the funds but is being caught up in legal red tape (stay tuned Tmx is here to help). Speaking of which, Tmx mistakenly called Jets D pickup of the week and well by all accounts the 1 point its scored shows IT WAS NOT. Apologies to Jerkshots who even ended their Tmx silence by offering up a rare quote by owner Wes Cash " Robfrey wins. Get used to it. You can quote us on that" Real cryptic as their isn't a team in ADSL named "Robfrey". The Tmx investigation team is working night and day to crack this cryptic quote.
Tmx will get to the bottom of this using all its resources.

 The All Iggles had another big week despite byes lets take a look.


QB  B.ROELTHISBERGER                      44PTS                 NUTSAWAY
RB  R.RICE                                         27PTS                 SLIPPERY WIZARDS
RB  C.RAINEY                                     40PTS                 BEACH BUMS
WR M.FLOYD                                      33PTS                JERKSHOTS
WR H.DOUGLAS                                  27PTS                SLIPPERY WIZARDS
TE  D.WALKER                                    20PTS                IN PEYTON WE TRUST
K   D.CARPENTER                               13PTS                 SETITFGIT
D   BEARS                                          20PTS                 BLACK DYNAMITE


        



Well Jerkshots made the move and started All Iggles regular S. Hauschka but put up 33 with a wide receiver. Slippery Wizards showing why they are in last putting over 50 on the All Iggles. Tmx tried to reach out  with All Iggles proud owner but seems he is bunkered down again and not able to be contacted(probably on the move). The amount of point being put up in a league with a flex player is alarming. Six weeks left to get it right but Tmx is not to confident that the league with make the right plays!! Reminder of All Iggles rule number one if you feel good enough that you need a player you start that player 40pts for a player pick up is crazy. Iggles smirks.

Onto the players that were actually started.
First place again this week was Setitfgit with 139, the Stafford/Megatron train just keeps rolling.
2nd was Jerkshots with 135 so close but one bad play cost them in a bye week no less
3rd was Black Dynamite with 131 led by Shady Mccoy
4th was Sflabo with 126 got big days from Vjax and the CJ who is officially BACK
5th was Beachbums with 121 who rode new qb Foles, Jordy and Seahawks d
6th place was Favorite New Kid with 111 who got a big game from Antonio Brown
7th place with 110 was Dmc who had exciting Monday night action and Cam Newton coming up big.
The final  three were  Slippery Wizards 101; In Peyton we trust 91 and Nutsaway with 76 (86 minus his 10 for not paying). Tmx is busy with the cryptic message sent by Jerkshots but did make a couple calls.

First call was to Trent Richardson of the winning team Setitfgit. Trent is struggling this year and Setitfgit started him over better play D. Brown. Hey T-Rich it Tmx whats up?? " Man Tmx now is not the time I got a lot going on. No quotes. My play speaks for itself" Well T-Rich by play are you referring to the porn you did? That play? Is that effecting you on the field? " Oh Tmx I wish we could speak on better times tell my owners I'm sorry at least I wasn't a first round pick" Well T-Rich actually you were but good luck in the porn industry because right now that looks like were you're putting in the most effort!!

Next up Tmx called good friend Steven Ridley. Hey Rid whats good?? " oh man Tmx how you been you see my new haircut?? Fresh to death right?? I"m balling for sure TD last night' Uhhm Rid you realize  you're carrying the football like a live lobster fumbling all over the joint right?? " oh come on Tmx i'm doing work how's my fantasy owner doing?? Great right?" Actually struggling and you're the main reason? " Well tell homeboy to get himself a fresh haircut and chill no biggie!! Rids is off !!! Man my hair is tight" Hmm well looks like both calls this week were to rbs that aren't focused on the upcoming last 6 weeks!! Lets hope the rest of the league is more focused. The last week of byes are here so its go time. Lets relax this week on hammy dances and let the final 6 weeks play out. Trade deadline is coming and there are a few out there. Rumors swirling with Beachbums having no qb week 12 that they are looking ACTIVELY. Tmx will stay on it. Good luck this week and call Tmx or Folan Dot Com with any breaking news or even cryptic quotes.

TMX out.

Anyone know if Favorite New Kid reads this? 

TMX week 10 review

Tmx coming in hot with a late week 10 review!! 

The top is a three team battle and Slippery Wizards are looking to clinch the dress wearing last place spot. The big bye weeks are past and now its a race to see who can make it to the finish. 

The trading deadline is coming and we had another trade this week with Dmc getting the number 2 tight end in the league Julius Thomas along with Pierre Thomas (no relation fools) and Manny Sanders and shipping Slippery Wizard two starters in Gio Bernard and Josh Gordon along with Greg Olsen. Tmx loves trades and is always hoping teams work things out. 

Speaking of which S. Hauschka a local boy should/could be on the block for Jerkshots. He's a regular on the All Iggles so unless Jerkshots is in kahoots with All Iggles I can't see why he wouldnt offer him up???

Lets get to the All Iggles team(starring Mike Mamula):

QB                          Rg3                      33pts                         Setitfgit

RB                          P.THOMAS            26PTS                        SLIPPERY WIZARDS

RB                          A.BROWN             23PTS                         FAVORITE NEW KID

WR                        J. BOYKIN              20PTS                         JERKSHOTS

WR                        G.TATE                 24PTS                         BEACH BUMS

TE                          C.FEENER             7PTS                           BEACH BUMS

D                            RAIDERS              22PTS                         SFLABO

K                           you know who        16PTS                         JERKSHOTS

        

 Beach bums putting two players on the All Iggles, this late in the season, is a rare mis-step for this marathon running owner. Jerkshots the one time rival of Iggles seems to be putting players and definately is putting his kicker on there every week. Tmx is getting its investigation team together and we know they handle things!!! 

Favorite New Kid (who doesn't speak much, post on the message boards or even have any ones phone number) sat A. Brown who he had stored away and started a player who was listed as INACTIVE prior to the game?? Somewhere all Iggles smirks. This is the time of the year when teams either fold or make their way to the top so lets see what happens!! 

This weeks winner was 3 time winner Setitfgit with 138.

 2. Beachbums 136 

3. Black Dynamite with 125 

4. Nutsaway with 122 ( Nutsaway had a shot at the week til Mike James broke and ankle after first series where he had 5 rushes 41yds---put in tough break joke here--) 

5. DMC 113 

6. Peyton We trust 109 

7. Jerkshots 105 

8. Slfabo 105 

9. Slippery Wizards 103 

10. Fav New Kid 98 

Tmx was busy this week, sorry for the soft recap but TMX is NEVER too busy to make calls and called Setitfgit's Brandon Marshall who put up 30 plus this week! Bmarsh whats good its TMX " Tmx oh sniggy snaps long time no talk!! You see me this Cutty or no Cutty I gets mine!!" Hahah sniggy snaps? " yeah i made that one up on the spot!! Anyway hows TMX doing you guys get videos yet?? Bmarsh needs a mofu*cking video on the review!! Can you imagine that?? Yo TMX I'm going to make a highlight video and send it and you can put it up there!! TMX I got you!! Bmarsh off to save TMX OUUUUUUUUT" Well guess Mr Marshall got some big plans wow!! 

TMX also made a rare call to a NON STARTER who was started this week. Ronnie Hillman for Favorite New kid (Donnie D - Can't wait for the Wahlbergers Reality Show) was in the starting lineup and listed as inactive before the game started. Hey Ronnie its TMX whats up. "TMX right? Nice try, Knowshon enough with the jokes CLICK" Hey Ronnie its TMX don't hangup we are calling to ask how you feel about..........." Peyton that you? everyone thinks your a nice guy but this prank phone call stuff is mean. Look I'm trying to get in the starting lineup, I fumble one FUCKING TIME,  don't call me pretending to be TMX. TMX calls starters and stars i was neither CLICK" Well Tmx made 4 more attempts and the phone was off the hook?? We also attempted to call Favorite New Kid ownership but they are not listed. Wild weeks continue!! 

Well its week 11 lets hope its injury free and exciting. Keep those Hammy Dances at bay.

TMX out.

TMX week 9 recap

Tmx is here for the recap of Week 9 which was a bye week hell for many but you wouldn't know it by the numbers put up by the dreaded All Iggles team!!

All Igggles had its highest total ever according to the Tmx stat crew.
Lets get right to it!!

QB- FOLES            69PTS  NUTSAWAY

RB- STACY            37PTS   DMC

RB-  JENNINGS     32PTS  JERKSHOTS

WR- AMENDOLA  25PTS  IN PEYTON WE TRUST

WR- WALLACE     11PTS  SFLABO

TE-  OLSEN           14PTS  DMC

K- HAUSCHKA     9PTS   JERKSHOTS

D- PATRIOTS         14PTS SLIPPERY WIZARDS

 I guess that call to Foles a few weeks back comparing to him to the Detmers really motivated him as he put up an All Iggles record SIXTY NINE points!! Two running backs helped out with over 30 in a week with 6 teams on byes!! Peyton we trust left 25pts on the board in his record setting week (more on that later). The season is now in the second half and the All Iggles should be struggling instead of striving!! The top 3 is now under 10 points with Dmc making up 70pts this week and moving full on into the hunt!! 7 teams are within 100 and after seeing the jump Dmc made its really anyone's game. The bottom two are separated by 20 and are in a fight for the cellar that could come down to the final week. There were injuries again this week in the year of the injury its no surprise. Pryor, Sproles, Mcfadden, Rudolph, Rodgers and Foster all went down this week.

Big names big injuries continue to be the theme of this fantasy season. 8 weeks left and many more injuries will follow I'm being told that HAMMY DANCE has now topped electric slide, Mambo #5 and the chicken dance as the wedding dance of 2013 (shout out to the Board Guy Mario who got engaged last week). J*rkshots are probably happy to hear that. (due to pending court proceedings TMX is not allowed to use their name when referring to the hammy dance on the blog) Let see the record setting week and how it played out. The first three time weekly winner DMC came in first with 174 doing it with 5 guys over 20 points a balanced team that should easily finish in the money. 2nd place this week was New Kid with 157 who played Brady ( is he back?) for a 50 burger; 3rd place was Jerkshots who also got a 50 burger from Andre Johnson; 4th this week was Sflabo with 142 who is riding Graham and CJ2K to create distance from the basement; 5th place was Black Dynamite with 136 who had Morris and Luck put up numbers; 6th place was Setitfgit with 112 who managed to break 100 despite not having his Detroit studs thanks to Marshall and Gronk; 7th place was Nutsaway who despite sitting Foles rode his Lacy/Ridley rb team to 112. The bottom three were Slippery Wizards (no shock) Beach bums (SHOCK- but lost Rodgers) and new adsl low record holder In Peyton We Trust who finished the week with 43 points and has fallen back to 7th place from 2nd. Luckily he gets Peyton back off the bye and can make up the ground.

Tmx made a call to Zac Stacy stud running back on the surging DMC team. Hey Z-man its Tmx whats good? "Oh wow Tmx your calling me?? Zac Stacy?? Wow what an honor hows it going?? "Well we are doing good, how are you?, knowing you've rushed for 261yds and 2 tds last two weeks and you cant crack the starting lineup on DMC? You thinking about demanding a trade? " oh come on TMX you trying to start trouble? You know i'm just happy that Dmc drafted me." Uhm Z-man he picked you up on waivers kid? " Wait what? Dude picked me up on waivers to bench my ass?? That ain't cool. Maybe I will ask for a trade, you guys a trading league??' Well now Z-man you're the one starting trouble TMX aint going down that road!! Keep up the good work hope you can get in a start. " Ha funny, later TMX love your recaps" Well there you have it now onto the record setting weekly low.

TMX had a list of people to call starting from the manager who picked up Alex Smith as a bye week replacement and then benched Spiller and Amendola but we decided to give an old friend Dez Bryant a call as he is the voice of that team. Hey Dez what is up its Tmx. " Aint nothing up we still dominating ADSL in first. Love our management team got that swagger 2013 champs what what get at me fools!!" Uhm Dez your in 7th had the lowest total EVER in ADSL, 43 pts?? " Hold up wait what?? How'd that happen?? We the champs??? Who's in first?? The Beach Bums?? You think they the champs?? You wanna crown them?? CROWN THEIR ASSES but we are already 2013 champs!!" Actually your  management put in for a name change to 5th place team? " Wait so they given up on us?? What is going on??? I may ask for a trade?? You all trade in that league??" Oh real cute Dez I know you read the blog." Hahahaha I'm just playing, can you read?. Anyway I know I'm about to show my ass and scream on the sidelines and go off so we will be back 2013 champs OUT' Nothing like a fired up Dez. Well week 10 has Thursday action and less teams on bye. Lets hope the hammy dance takes the week off and the races for last and top spots tighten.

Good luck. Tmx out

Hope you know where your long johns are

The cold came in fast. Nothing like it being 77 on Saturday and 32 today. I had to break out my winter jacket.

This is what I learned this weekend:
1. I guess 2 kids can split a bag of regular M&Ms but not a bag of peanut M&M's.
2. Congrats to Mario and Ashley on their engagement. Now the fun begins, picking a date, a venue, the wedding party, the amount of people who can go...lots of luck.
3. Baby Macphail should be here in under a month. Anyone want to bet if its a boy or a girl? I am taking girl.
4. Man you trim your beard and some people act like you murdered their 1st born.
5. The roller coaster that is fantasy football continues - and Chrissy is throwing a hissy fit. After trading for Manning and changing his name to 2013 Champs he is currently in 5th and falling. I just sayu it was week 9 bye week hell.
6. Eggplant doesn't have much of a taste/flavor.
7. I didn't make the parade. My scheduled meeting with the shower glass door guy ran over.
8. I love that Jake Peavy bought his duck boat that he was riding on during the parade.
9. I think if you were lucky enough to be at McGreeveys or Daisy after the parade and got to drink with a shirtless Mike Napoli then my hats off to you.
10. I only had 10 trick or treaters this year.
11. Not only did I get to be godfather again yesterday but changed the game up and the ceremony going forward.
12. Every time you go to the car dealership they want to go above and beyond what you need, bro I just need an oil change.
13. Why can't we just get rid of daylight savings? Just split the difference? When we spring forward just spring 1/2 hour ahead. It seems like a nice solution.
14. Rio is looking for a house again. Keep ya head on a swivel.
15. The food at the Junction is always 50% off and its damn tasty.
16. There was a Smiddy and Kohansky sighting this weekend.
17. Waiting to hear back to see if the rink is available December 7th or 14 for street hockey.
18. I would rather mud and tape and fix holes in dry wall than paint.

Till next week people. Stay classy.

TMX week 8 review

TMX here for the week 8 recap!!

 The year of the injury continues but first with not so breaking news!!! A trade was made involving trade partners Setitfgit and Beachbums. Beachbums have been in the hunt for a tight end to fill his one weakness and Setitfgit just so happen to pick the hottest tight end off the waiver wire and immediately deal him. Jordan Reed and a rb who was immediatly cut came to BeachBums for Jared Cook and bye week Trent Richardson. Reed finished 2nd in tight end points behind only Graham so the trade seems to have helped Beachbums who have taken over first place!!! Tmx does not rate or debate trades we are just here to promote them. Tmx as you know is here to help and never has a trade not helped someone!! Trade em if you got em!! The injuries this week included break out tight end Julius Thomas, old friend Mike Vick, wrs Gibson and Broyles (season enders) and hot rb Zac Stacy. The injuries are mounting, many more left the game and played on,  depth is going to be key to strong finishes.

There were also 6 teams on a bye this week and 6 more next week but somehow someway All Iggles still put up some decent numbers.

Here they are week 8 All Iggles (looks like we have found our face if the franchise).

QB-              A.DALTON                                46PTS                     DMC
RB-              A.ELLINGTON                            28PTS                     SETITFGIT
RB-              Z. STACY                                 18PTS                      DMC
WR              C.SHORTS                                10PTS                     SLIPPERY WIZARDS
WR              M.FLOYD                                  10PTS                      JERKSHOTS
TE-              J.GRESHAM                                8PTS                       BLACK DYNAMITE
K-                J.BROWN                                   15PTS                      NUTSAWAY
D                 PATRIOTS                                 26PTS                     SLIPPERY WIZARDS

   Somehow with half the team on bye the last place Slippery Wizards and Dmc were able to drop two players on the Iggles and Dmc is in the running for the Randall Cunningham All Iggle player of the year award putting up Dalton's 46pts (Who is on the trading block)!! The All Iggles are somehow still getting points meaning owners are still not making the right starts.  The same situation is this week with 6 more teams on byes hopefully we shutdown the Iggles!! Setitfgit gets a pass on this as his team put up 187 this week so his player is probably a sympathy thing. Always had a soft spot for Iggles; rumor has it he once helped the Iggles move.

Here's how this week went:

First place this week with the Detroit All Stars Megatron, Bush and Stafford going HAM is Setitfgit with 187. Megatron mega game 58pts
2nd place and overtaking the lead is Beachbums with 162, the Rodgers-Nelson connection coming through
3rd and continuing to climb is Nutsaway with 134 led by another big Brees game
4th place was Peyton We Trust with 116 saw a small chink in the armor of the leader this week as only Peyton and Bryant put up points
5th place was Favorite New Kid with 113 who continues to stay in the hunt with a balanced attack despite having qb issues
6th place was Black Dynamite with 110 who navigated through his qb by week with big help from giants d
7th place with 110 was Slippery Wizards who's new found wr Frederick Douglass' kid, Harry helped the team stay out of last for the week.
The final three were Sflabo, Dmc and Jerkshots. 

Tmx made a call to winning teams qb Matt Stafford. Hey Matt its Tmx whats going down? "Tmx I heard alot about you, Mega says you call him all the time, funny. Why havent you guys called me I'm the one throwing to him?" Wow. Point taken Matt but looks like you just heave it in his direction and he catches it? " hahaha you're right I'm just kidding boy am I lucky to have Mega. But I did pull off that sneaky deaky on my own, that was a move huh?? Sure was and congrats on your comeback big win. " You're telling me heading into the bye I'm going to rest my shoulder and come out slinging, later Tmx keep my number on speed dial' Ahh the confidence of a qb loaded with stars. Speaking of stars we called Tmx favorite and Jerkshots star Marshawn Lynch to ask him what happened Monday night. Yo yo Marshawn whats up its Tmx. " Tmx now aint the motherf*cking time ( where my skittles, where the f*ck are marshawns skittles)" EEEk uhhm Marshawn this is a family site I thought we were tight " Tmx I'm sorry but we have first and goal and they use Beastmode as a decoy??? What the f*ck?? this aint duck dynasty I aint no decoy. I'm going to wake up Rah Rah Pete Carroll off my couch and we are going to have a meeting'' Wait he sleeps on your couch??? " Well we was celebrating and he stayed over anyway Tmx sorry for the language I'm out" Well there you have it

 Huge week 9 with alot of big teams on byes. The top is tight separated by 16 and the bottom 3 by 35. Its early and anyone's game. Setitfgit was 188 pts out in week 5 (thanks tmx stat dept) they are now 16, Good luck in week 9 and watch out for the hammy dance craze. Tmx out

TMX week 7 review

TMX week 7 review is in!!!

This year is starting to look like the year of the injury!!! Each week teams are losing starters all teams except Hammy Dance (first you limp to the side like your leg was broken) inventor Jerkshots of course.  The list of injured this week includes Cutler, Finley, Wayne, Foster, Bradford, Martin, Foles, Jacobs and Tate!!! OUCHIE!!  Six from that list were in starting lineups!! The Iggles team (2nd healthiest in the league) put up decent numbers this week and had a few new names on it.

 Another defense went over 20 All Iggles(we are still in search of the face of OUR franchise), here's the team:

QB   R.GRIFFIN    30PTS   SETITFGIT
RB   C.JOHNSON  19PTS   SFLABO
RB   R. MATHEWS  22PTS    NEW KID (donnie d on the sts)
WR  S.SMITH      15PTS   J ERKSHOTS
WR T.WILLIAMS   16PTS  SFLABO
TE  D. WALKER  12PTS    PEYTON WE TRUST
D  COLTS            20PTS   PEYTON WE TRUST


           Tmx has to mention that JCulter was benched this week and did put up MINUS 1 point!! The rest of the players on Iggles could have been started and helped teams!! Sflabo and Peyton We Trust put two players on the team this week and Setitfgit traded for RG3 and gave up a great rb but doesnt seem to need the qb help?? Third straight week a charger rb is on the Iggles. Next two weeks SIX teams on bye so the Iggles should struggle to even field a team and Tmx knows that kills the Iggles ownership group!!

The race up top is tightening as In Peyton We Trust had a rare off week and the race down the bottom seems to still be a two man race with both teams over 150 out of the top.
This weeks winner was Setitfgit with a huge 175pt output, the player who let him down was his pickup J. Blackmon, putting up 8pts wont cut it; Distant 2nd was Jerkshots with 138pts no thanks to T.Smith who only put up 7pts!! 3rd place goes to Black Dynamite with 127pts no thanks to A.Morris who was outscored by his backup; 4th this week was DMC with 123, first overall pick AP put up 6 to disappoint; 5th place was Slippery Wizards with 118 who is probably not happy with Foster and Rice totalling 10pts; 6th place was Sflabo with 115 who got 9 combined from his rbs Cox and Martin; 7th this week was Beachbums who cant be pleased with newly aquired Boom Boom Powell giving him a 0!! The botton 3 this week were In Peyton We Trust, New Kid, and Nutsaway!!

Tmx made a couple calls first to first place team member Calvin Johnson.

   Hey Megatron its ol friend Tmx whats good?? " oh Tmx thanks for calling I just left the gym working on getting healthy so I can carry Setitfgit to a title" Yes yes we know Mega you've been the key to many fantasy titles how do you do it. " well i just work hard and try and produce each week, thanks" Mega you're a great player but pretty boring interview. "hahaha thanks well Tmx I gotta run me and Stafford are going to try putting up 40 burgers for next week" K Later Megatron.

The next call Tmx made was to last place team member Nick Foles. Hey Nick its Tmx a respected fantasy football review site how are you? " Tmx wow I've heard of you guys whats up?" Well whats up is you laid an egg this week when you were the hot pickup?? I mean any Detmer could put up 6 points?? " Wow Tmx thanks for the compliment did you just call me a Detmer?" No, no we did not compare you to a Detmer, you let Nutsaway down this week anything to say for that? " well truthfully Tmx I got concussed and I'm not sure I remember letting him down does that still count?" Fair point!!! Well good luck Nick hope you remember stinking week 7 up.

   We are almost at the half way point and the bye weeks are hot and heavy weeks 8 and 9 with big names on byes and trades may be needed to help teams out. Week 9 may be the week to make up ground as the mighty broncos take a bye that week!!! As always if you have hot trade rumors or tips dont hesitate to call or page Tmx or see folandotcom on the twitters. Tmx out!!

Booyah

The year is winding down. There are only 10 weeks left till 2014! I hope that you have all signed up for your Obamacare.

This is what I learned this weekend:
1. I forgot how watching  only 1 football game sucks.
2. If you cut yourself shaving you can use chapstick to stop the bleeding.
3. The world series generates $9 million per game in additional revenue for local businesses.
4. I have always said I would kill at Supermarket sweep but now the Food network has come out with Guys Grocery games. Total rip off.
5. Mike Flounder Foley has stood up for the old Quincy.
6. Chrissy is afraid to try the Moruga Scorpion Pepper.
7. Heard Jeffrey was living it up over on the Vineyard fishing and drinking. Thanks for the invite.
8. No more name suggestions for the Macphails. They have locked in both their boy and girl names.
9. I tried to watch the Great and Powerful Oz and man was I disappointed, turned it off after 35 minutes.
10. Brothers roast beef in Quincy is legit.
11. Only I could get stung by a wasp while trying to to nail down some roof flashing.
12. I don't think its normal that my barber wouldn't trim my beard because the Sox are in the playoffs.
13. I hate pumpkin flavored everything. There I said it. HATE!
14. I love me some pecan pie.
15. Only assholes say "Hindsight is 20/20". ASSHOLES!
16. Why don't hockey players get individual goal songs? I mean its 2013 they can have everyone's songs queued up ready for a goal. This needs to happen. I need to hear Louie Louie after Erickson scores.
17. Do people actually read this blog(besides Chrissy)?
18. Apparently Supah P is working crazy over time to pay for his daughters college education. FATHER OF THE YEAR CANDIDATE.
19. Is there anything more depressing than getting to work and it is dark out then leaving work and it is still dark out.
20. Welcome back to Massachusetts Christopher Shimkus. The new director of Catering and Convention services at the Boston Park Plaza.

Till next week. I hope the Red Sox can pull this World Series win out.

TMX week 6 review

TMX week 6 review is here!! 

The wild fantasy season continues!! The season is one of the craziest in years with new stars coming through old stars playing like its 2004, defenses carrying teams and as always ALL IGGLES players playing their butts off. The top got a little closer all within 60pt picking about 30pts on the leader In Peyton We Trust who was running away with it, the bottom 3 had little movement and are separated by 30pts now. There is no telling what will happen week to week well except INJURIES. 

This year continues to be the year of the injury GET A BANDAID this week for Cobb, Shorts, Graham, Amendola, J.Jones, Powell, Goodson and Schaub among others. Shorts and Graham also were in the Goose egg club, giving there owners who started them a lonely zero.  

Lets get to the always healthy ALL IGGLES for this week:

QB STAFFORD  32PTS   SETITFGIT

RB RIDLEY        23PTS   NUTSAWAY

RB ELLINGTON  17PTS    SETITFGIT

WR ALLEN        26PTS    DMC

WR FITZGERALD 24PTS  BLACK DYNAMITE

TE CHANDLER  11PTS    JERKSHOTS

K  NOVAK        14PTS    PEYTON WE TRUST

D RAMS          36PTS     JERKSHOTS

  

                                                               

 

 Setitfgit and Jerkshots stacking the All Iggles with two players this week and the second week in a row a defense supplied the Iggles with 30 plus points!! Defense wins championships they say!! The Iggles have alot of players who look like they could be dealt in deals but so far the trade market is running slow in ADSL, with big bye weeks 8 and 9 coming that could change.  

                                                                  (who is a better ALL Iggles spokes person than Donovan F. Mcnabb)

Lets take a look at how this week ended up:

First place was DMC with 151 led by Cam and Chiefs D 2nd went to Beachbums with 137 who took tmx's advice and put Moreno in and got 3 tds. (Helping its what tmx does) 

3rd this week was Nutsaway who used newly acquired Lacy to 129 for the week 

4th place was Setitfgit with 125 who rode waiver stud Blackmon to 125 

5th place was Who's your favorite New Kid (Donnie d on the streets) who in a year of injury is riding often injured Charles and Djax to 124 

6th this week was Sflabo who got a big game from Vincent Jackson for 117 

7th this week was Jerkshots who rode Cowboys d and Beastmode to 104

the bottom three were Black Dynamite, Slippery Wizards and In Peyton We trust. 

The readers have spoken and they don't want to  hear the scores of the bottom 3. Tmx made a couple calls this week and first of was Killah Cam Newton who led DMC to victory. Hey Cam its Tmx what it is??? "oh no you didn't TMX!!! I ain't heard from you in a hot minute!! I'm back!! You see the numbers I put up??" Yes we did Cam and you've been known to be up and down so I guess the next question is can you duplicate it?? " Look I got focus and Steve Smith I'm ready to carry the fantasy world on my shoulders, well not really I'm just hoping Tmx gives me a couple more calls!! Look I gotta go throw a few to Steve Smith old man feels left out. CALL ME TMX!!!" Old friend Cam always a good interview!! 

Next up we called Danny Amendola of In Peyton We Trust who put up a measly 1pt before getting hurt. Hey Danny its Tmx how you feeling?? " Danny who? Tmx? oh I'm fine I love being in the Tmx best league, Bill told me you'd call I'm fine, really, I'm good I can play this week. Love being a part of the Tmx was a dream since I was a kid." Uhhm Danny its TMX not the NFL??? You still suffering from that concussion?? You didn't even know your own name?? " oh oh sorry uhhm no I'm good just  looking forward to playing (hang that phone up Amendola NOW WE NEED YOU OUT THERE) CLICK. Wow uhhm that was a weird call?? Hope he gets better or at least figures out his name by Sunday! Well the week start tomorrow so get to the waiver wire grab the guys you need and lets get moving!! Trades are only 5 dollars in the league and Setitfgit and Nutsaway proved last week that a trade can help both teams so lets make it happen!! Tmx is here to help  and you can go to the folan.com website for trade evaluator app that is easy to download to all phones. TMX OUT. Good luck in week 7.

A nice day

I love waking up to 43 degrees. All my windows were open in my house and it felt nice and refreshing(can something be freshing?).

The Pats and Sox both pulled off come from behind wins. The birds, that have not gone to Florida for the winter, are chirping. The squirrels are running around foraging like the little freaks that they are. All seems right in the world.

This is what I learned this weekend:

1. Everyone is effected by cancer. This guy brings Starbucks and smiles to peoples faces. Check out his story and donate.

2. Chrissy and Alison have their first names locked down. Now they are working on middle names.

3. TK was spotted down in Providence at the Water Fires.

4. Ever get stuck in a rut where you seem to take 2 steps forward but 5 steps back? Its by far the worst.

5. Monday afternoon Bruins game, who is going?

6. Chicken cordon blue is a pain in the ass to make but man is it delicious.

7. Brady, David and Chrissy relived their glory days and did an hour of power yesterday. There is no video proof that Lauren Brady went HAM after.

8. I was on this months ago but now everyone is going as the Fox for Halloween.(even Brian Folan).

9. If you eat a polar bear liver, you will die. Humans can’t handle that much vitamin A.(why would you want to eat a polar bear liver anyways?)

10. Abalones (a snail) have 5 assholes. HA this made me laugh. 

11. Duck vaginas have developed “dead ends” over time to protect them from being raped by other ducks. WAIT!?! Ducks are rapists? Donald and Daffy should start wearing pants.

12. Only Asian people have black hair. Every other supposedly ‘black’ hair colour is actually really dark brown. My hairs gray so fuck you!

13. Joe Martell was hanging out with Ryan Tannehill in Florida fduring the Dolphins bye week.

14. The proper name for the marshmallows in Lucky Charms cereal is called "Marbits".

15.  On average, a drunk driver will drive 80 times before they are arrested. Just some food for thought.

16.  Shopping for paint for your walls suck. After a while it all looks the same.

Thats all I have for now. Lets hope the Sox make the World series.
