The Roving Thoughts of a Fantasy Insomniac

  • I’m as big of a Billy Beane fan that you’ll find, but two of his biggest recent acquisitions, Jason Kendall and Esteban Loaiza, are looking pretty terrible. Expensive too.
  • Don’t look now, but Corey Patterson is all of a sudden a valuable fantasy commodity.
  • Put a fork in Oliver Perez; he’s done.
  • Rich Harden is injury-prone. And by injury-prone, I mean he’s more brittle than my 94-year-old grandma who is now sporting her third different hip.
  • Kevin Mench was once known purely for having the largest head in all of sports; now, we can add feet to the newsworthy anatomy of one Kevin Mench.
  • Tigers outscored the Twins 33-1 this weekend; it’s safe to say Minnesota is not reaching my 88-win prediction.
  • Anyone else find it a little bizarre the Patriots first five draft picks went RB, WR, TE, TE and K?
  • It’s official; Marv Levy is senile. The Eagles look like the big winner from this weekend’s draft to me. LenDale White is the new Mike Williams. The Texans will be sorry.
  • I’m going to the Kings/Spurs game 4 tonight. Something tells me game 3 was the one I should’ve been at.
  • Still unsure about watching Mission Impossible III. I like Philip Seymour Hoffman, and JJ Abrams gives it hope, but Tom Cruise has reached too-crazy-to-take-serious status.
  • With new albums coming out for Tool, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and The Streets, maybe there’s hope for music after all.
  • Caught an episode of “The Real Housewives of Orange County” on Bravo the other day. Like a car crash, I literally couldn’t turn my eyes away from it.
  • And finally, go to http://www.familywatchdog.us/ to see if your neighborhood is safe. Apparently, no sex-offenders live in Mexico; I’m off to go pack my bags.

    Ha Ha that was great. Harden is killing my fantasy team, yet again. Mench is on a crazy roll. And I have way too many weirdos living in my area.

    The Pats seem to be building the team around Tom Brady at this point. More value to do at this point.
