this is funny because it draws on real life stuff. my brother and 2 of his friends in our league are running their teams with their wives.

Hahaha I cringed when he made that pick too. Reminded me of my draft and that I'm glad I didn't draft him. If this show cold have Southpark like turnaround they could have changed it to Ceddy Ben.

I love FF and sports and what not, but I'm afraid of this becoming a "Maxim Magazine" like show meaning it will try to be Dude-centric.

So far it's not too bad though.

I caught it on Sunday night and had a blast with it. Much raunchier than the promos set it out to be. LOLed at the finger and the first joint gags. I really liked the idea of waitresses at the draft party. I might have to check into that for next years draft party.

Immediately after he asks about Gates/Shockey, he asks about Winslow. If he had started with Shockey/Winslow as the debate (or Gates/Gonzalez as you said), that would have been more believable.

Not to mention Gates was obviously already drafted when that conversation took place (probably just a result of editing).

That's funny because I have both Winslow and Shockey on my team and its a weekly struggle of who to start.

I would think Shockey would be a no brainer at this point.

Actually, Winslow is about right even with Shockey points-wise. Has less yards than shockey, but one more TD. Both with 7 games played.

My buddy (who is not a fantasy football guy or even a huge football guy) caught it and said it was fantastic so I recorded the encore. I liked it enough to keep tuning in.
