Going into week 2 The Stewie Syndrome is looking good and I don’t look like the fool everyone thought I was when I took Randy Moss and Terrell Owens. ;) Unfortunately I didn’t start Randy Moss either week so I missed over 30 points for the season total (for cash on league scoring leader) but I’m still holding on with two solid 100 point weeks from my team and we’re 2-0. There are some other very tough teams in the league as well so we’ll see how things continue but I’m confident at the moment. :) As for replacements for The Stewie Syndrome, I replaced Chris Henry & the Panthers Defense with Brandon Marshall & the Texans defense. Marshall was a nice pickup considering I was last on the waiver pickups and he could have some big games, otherwise he’ll still be a good bye week sub. The Texans have looked great (and btw were my most improved team in pre-season by adding a somewhat mobile QB, at least more mobile than Carr, behind a questionable OL) and their big draft pick is coming through on defense and I think they’ll be a suitable trade by week 10 (when both the Texans and Patriots are on a bye week).

BREWTALITY is a completely different story and close to the real situation in the NFL. We’re 1-1 (and feel lucky after squeaking out a 2 pt win) because of the Bears defense/special teams. McNabb isn’t looking great, Jones-Drew and Lee Evans are busts so far and McGahee isn’t doing much either. I did pick up Derrick Ward after week one but that’s a temporary fix and I pulled Evans for Wes Welker this week to see how he does again… I don’t see Evans doing much against New England’s defense. I also added Antwaan Randle El and replaced McNair with Garcia so I have about 4 new players out of the 15 on the roster.

So we’re off to week 3 to see what happens…

The Stewie Syndrome!

Go Bucks!  Awesome game today against Northwestern… I turned it on and at the beginning of the 2nd quarter and was happy to see a 28-0 1st quarter!!!  Nice to see the Wolverines back on track as well.  Can’t completely hate your biggest rival until the big game. :)
