Week 2 Recap

Well, here we are coming in to being knee deep into Week 3 of the 2013 season.  We got cream rising to top (The Ex Presidents, The Buck Nasty) and we have some shit on the floor that we are all trying not to step into (Brew City Bombers, Thunderhorses).  And there is a whole lot mediocrity in the middle, with a slew of one win, one loss teams.  But it is only Week 3, so there is a lot of Fantasy Football yet to go.  The shit on the floor just may turn into gold.  One never knows, does one?

Marshall is already basking in their one-win glory.  It was a nice win.  And, lucky for them, they have one of those shitty teams to play in Week 3, so they just may parlay this into double-win.  But, again, one never knows.

The biggest upset in Week 2 was when our own Muslim Sisterhood tripped on their very large dicks and fell flat on their faces.  True story.  Lucky for the GreenPointAttack that they were playing them and scoring record setting points, enough to have beaten each and every one of us in the Nation.  Nicely done.  Even if it was mostly done on the backs of DeSean "How Long Can I Really Last in this Chip Kelly Offense" Jackson and Jimmy "Thank God I Don't Play in New England, Where TEs Either Kill People or Bust Themselves Up Pretty Fierce" Graham.  Two nice go to guys, but can they really support a rather weak team for an entire season?  We shall see.

The second biggest upset last week goes to The SackBags.  Who knew this little Texas team was going to come to play this year?  Grabbing up Eddie Royal turned out to be a brilliant move.  Go get 'em SackBags.  Of course, the Flu's two terrible RBs and awful TE did nothing but help the SackBags on to their first win.  Got to love it (unless you are a flu).

The Buck Nasty won.  No surprise.

Thunderhorses lost.  No surprise.  They are waiting patiently for the BYE weeks to start and hoping that most of their opponent's key players out the week they play them.  How else can they win?

The Warriors eked out a win over TheFightingFighters.  Tough loss for TheFighters, but nice win for The Warriors.

So it goes.

Were all of our picks right last week?  No.  Were more than half right?  No.  But exactly half were right, so we are still calling that a win.  We, here at the Nation HQ, have always been "the glass is half full" sort of people.  That's just how we roll.

CHOPSTAR NATION WEEK 3 CHALLENGE!!!

Week 3 picks will be coming out Thursday.  To make it interesting, we are going to pick the team that gives us the best reason for why the team they are playing this week sucks so bad.  So, get your comments posted here posthaste and we will see if you can get our affections leaning your way.  Best of luck to you all, except The Mayhem!
