Week 8 Results – Panic Level: Screaming Homer
This week was terrible! I didn’t cash, injuries to Hogan, Freeman and Reed (while not unexpected) were all crushing. So this week, I’m channeling Homer Screaming.

Week 6 DFS: The Vacation Episode
Week 5 was again brutal, the values on the fantasy sites were out of whack and that created odd value plays that simply didn’t pan out. The good news is that it looks like the values have finally normalized and I think Week 6 in DFS could be great for cash games.

Britt LOVES Thursdays…Wait, What?
I love Thursday nights! Have I mentioned how much I love Thursday night games? The early start, setting your season long lineup early, having to make a call on a questionable guy scheduled to play on a Monday and your back up plays Thursday so you HAVE to make a call? Thursday nights rock! Yeah,…

Week 4 DFS Update – Threat Level: Smithers
Waylon Smithers has always been one of those characters you just can’t figure out. Fiercely loyal to the most evil man in Springfield, C. Montgomery Burns, but with a moral compass that shines through when needed. He has defied his boss openly on
