Bears coach Lovie Smith is famous for breaking down the NFL season schedule by quarters. I offer my Cleopatra team's analysis at the one-third poll of our 15-week Finks League regular season.
Cleopatra is 4-1 with smoke and mirrors heading into their biggest match of the season in Week 6 against the Eggers. Cleopatra ranks first in the league in defense (141 pts), always a dubious category in fantasy based on pure luck, and the team ranks sixth in offense (211).
In the preseason auction, I was outbid in both RBs and WRs for any of my major choices. My No. 1 QB was Brees NO and my No. 1 WR was A. Green CIN. Cleopatra lost its season opener, but then beat Serkus 49-23 in Week 2. With garbage at RB and WR, there was hope.
No other owner has made as many transactions. I have made a transaction every week thus far. I have another one brewing for Week 6. Unbelievably, I have carried nine different RBs on my roster and six WRs. Only one RB (D. Brown IND) remains from my Week 1 roster. My other RBs from Week 1 are a trivia question: Helu WAS, Redman PIT and Starks GB, who I believe has not played this season.
One of the challenges of running a fantasy team is gauging who to listen to for fantasy advice. I don't follow the NFL all that well to know what's happening out there. I need help. But anyone who calls himself an expert, is not an expert. Anyone can be an expert. All you need is a mouthpiece. The KFFL.com expert that had Starks listed in the middle of the pack among preseason RBs was wrong.
