Fantasy Football Champ 2008

When Fred Smoot said this about Matt Ryan, "He's nothin'...he's a pair of shoes" I'm sure he had no idea that he would be facing Cooley's Zornado, led by the rookie QB, in the championship game of the first annual Cooley Zone fantasy football league. But thats exactly what happened and luckily for Smoot, his words rang true last Sunday. The Falcons lost and Ryan scored only 8 fantasy points helping pave the way to victory for the DC Lumber Company.

Cooley had this to say after his 3 point loss in the title game

I felt confident going into the game that I was going to go home with the trophy. I mean who expects Tampa Bay to score -3 points at home against the Chargers? That just doesn't happen. Plus I had Adrian Peterson and DeAngelo WIlliams! I am just frustrated right now...my team let me down...

In the consolation match up, it was the battle of the Manning brothers. If you don't remember from the draft video, Peyton was selected by the girls in the first round. It was a pick that surely paid off as Peyton scored 25 points in the final week leading to an victory for Team Better Halves 90-63.  

So after all that we need to thank Fantasy Trophies and we'll surely do it again next year.

Wired Up: Fred Smoot

I feel like the last Wired Up we posted was a huge success. Rebecca Mejia and the rest of the Redskins Broadcast team has done an awesome job putting these videos together. Just so you know, you can watch other Wired Up features along with Redskins Broadcast Network TV Shows. Redskins Players Club, Redskins Weekly, Redskins Late Night, Redskins Game Day, or Redskins Nation. I hope you enjoy Smoot on his Wired Up.

Smoot's Feelings on Dallas

Fred Smoot doesn't like Dallas and neither should you.

Fantasy Update

Our match up of the week between Tana and Smoot definitely came down to the wire. After scoring an embarrassing 16 points last week, Fred's team managed to even out this week with his one point victory over Santana. I wonder what makes Tana happier, Shockey fumbling to cost him this weeks fantasy win or Shockey fumbling and actually helping us beat the Saints? You be the judge. Anyways, the rest of the results will be up in the morning on the sidebar tomorrow so be sure to check them out.

Fantasy Matchup of the Week

Smoot and Santana have been picked as the matchup of the week.  Both took losses in the first week, and Smoot scoring under 20 points and losing Tom Brady for the season was devastating.  I caught them at breakfast this morning for a little preview.
