After reading an article about the AccuScore Super Computer on ESPN.com, which ran simulations of the Patriots-Colts game, I'm thoroughly convinced that we are already running out of things to talk about with these two teams. Honestly, what is the point of running simulations of a game where the sport's slogan goes "...anything can happen on any given Sunday"? Unless you're on your way to your bookie to place a big bet, how can the outcome of computer simulations affect you in any way? The nerd next door might as well run a Madden '08 simulation on his XBox and tell you who won...it would have the same bearing on what will happen this Sunday.

Sorry, but before I go into football related topics, I have to give a shout out to the Boston Red Sox for their World Series victory last night. With a 4-3 win, they swept the Colorado Rockies for their second World Series Championship in four years. With most of their talent expected to return next season...do I hear DYNASTY?!

Am I the only one getting sick of the following things?

The news that Ronnie Brown is done for the season sucked pretty hard for me, as he was the lynchpin of the best fantasy squad I've got going this year. But Yahoo isn't making the loss any easier to take, as Brown's still on their no-cut list, so I can't even drop him. His name is just sitting there on my roster, mocking me. I need a beer.

Stat line of the week...

Sorry to all those Javon Walker owners out there (and the Jay Cutler...and maybe Brandon Marshall owners as well), but it looks like you won't have him back for a bit longer. Coach Shanahan reported today that Walker will need surgery on his knee and will be out "for a few weeks".

While it's a bit early to make that comparison, you have to agree that he looks downright NASTY in the highlights from the Bears game this past weekend:

So I returned home from my trip to St. Maarten (which was awesome) this afternoon and turned on the TV halfway through the 4:00 games, something I recommended not doing, and as usual, I was stunned by some of the insanity taking place on the field, primarily by a few running backs. The first stat I saw that made me double-take was Adrian Peterson's 233 yard rushing and 3 touchdown performance. My first thought was "Holy smokes! Peterson is the new LT." But then, I immediately look to the box score of than San Diego game and realized that he's not quite LT, as there's only room in the league for one 215 yard, 4 touchdown performance.

Alright, sorry this has nothing to do with fantasy football, but it's still sort of sports related. I was watching SportsCenter right now and saw a quick snippet of a video with a kangaroo on a race track, so I had to find it for you. While it's not quite the same as Ocho Cinco racing a horse, it's still pretty insane.

I'm not sure if you were able to see video of Trent Green's concussion-causing hit this weekend, but in case you didn't, you can see it right here:
