FAMILY FANTASY FOOTBALL LEAGUE
Home | SOS Money Awards
Week 2
MVP|Not Rated
A monster 141 points for Riya and Mayank, half of those thanks to just 3 players and AMAZINGLY none of them are named Eli or Odell
Surprise of the Week|Team Baby Boy
With less than 9 points TOTAL between their starting RB's, a perfect scenario of Houston defense shutting down KC, along with Team Baby Boy's kicker Cairo Santos helped with an impressive 29 total points. This helped for a crucial win as they lost Peterson and Abdullah in the SAME week
"Big Balls" Play of the Week|Chipotle Hoggers
Tight End Kyle Rudolph hasn't ever really been fantasy relevant, mainly due to his history of injuries and the Vikings inconsistency at QB. But in week 2, the youngsters took a chance on the big tight end and he payed off with 10+ crucial points which helped seal their FIRST 3FL victory
Bust of the Week|Brown Pride
Only three players reached double figures, with the highest scorer being QB Stafford who ended up with just 13.5 points... And as if the low points weren't bad enough, PPR RB gem Woodhead is lost for the year
Biggest "OOPS!!" of the Week|The Co(r)n Man
Although waiver wire gem Will Fuller didn't score a touchdown in week 2, he scored exactly eleven points more than Donte Moncrief who was injured during the game, while Jimmy loses by just four

3FL| Just Thought You Should Know....
...If you needed any further justification for teams playing backups during the preseason look no further than what just happened in week 2. The fantasy gods are angry, and multiple teams lost crucial players to injury which included Adrian Peterson, Danny Woodhead, Doug Martin, Arian Foster, Ameer Abdullah, Jonathan Stewart, Donte Moncrief and MORE...
I have to admit, when Kaepernick started kneeling to raise awareness I was skeptical of his motive and impact it would have on the community. Boy was I wrong, and what's amazing to me is the way people are lining up and taking sides based on race and political backgrounds.
Everbody keeps pointing to the fact that it would be a more powerful message if someone like the former MVP Cam Newton, who is supposedly more 'black' and popular than Kap, would voice his true opinion and further the cause.
What most people don't realize is that Cam can't really say what he wants to say for this simple reason, he plays in North Carolina while Kapernick plays in San Francisco. In one place you're more likely to find many bigoted or uncle tom Drumpf supporters and in the other place they like to beat the orange faced clown's supporters.
You see, out here on the west coast, we didn't grow up like uncle toms and certainly were not that token indian or brown person in our group of friends. That lends for a much different experience growing up and I thank my dad everyday that we didn't end up in the south or midwest amongst some communities where we would always be considered outsiders
The biggest false narrative is that one particular politician is supposed to bring about change or could bring about change. Few politicians EVER make an impact, rather this "change" that some people are looking for always starts at a grass-roots level through community groups and just your average citizens. Telling me that we need "change" and thinking that a politician is going to do something is just plain lazy and ignorant.
However you feel about Obama, he didn't have to resort to scare tactics or demonizing certain segments of our country. Granted, he was possibly preceded by the worst president of all time, but I'm pretty sure he wouldn't spark up a birther issue, make fun of a handicapped reporter, disgrace our military on multiple occasions, con people out of their money, make racist statements about Muslims, Mexicans & other minorities, and just be a sleazy despicable human being in general.
These are just some reasons why I have very little respect for Drumpf supporters who wrap themselves in the flag, as if that makes them more patriotic. To me, they rather resemble a cult-like flock of sheep. So while one presidential candidate wants Colin Kaepernick to find another country, I say that he's more than welcome in mine.
I don't know how many people I speak for, but I do know that this country would be a lot better off with more Kaepernicks and a lot less Drumpfs.
Cam put the Panthers on his back with 353 YDS & 4TD's and helped Monika get the win.
Bayside Tigers-Not sure I would have used the Bears kicker Connor Barth, but much props to Amish for showing loyalty in a nod to his hometown squad
Doctor Agrawal-It's Matt Ryan, not Luck who leads Anuj's team and the entire league in fantasy points after two weeks, might just be steal of the draft
Bush Did Harambe-Jimmy G has more fantasy points through 2 weeks than Aaron Rodgers, damn Ankit, I wonder what the odds in Vegas were on that one
Runs Like A Gurley-Gets the win despite scoring just 85 points and 2 TD's across her entire lineup...Shikha better hope the Rams figure out their QB situation soon
Laces Out-DeMarco Murray surprisingly has 4 less receiving targets and 1 less reception than Monika's stud WR Brandin Cooks, while matching his TD total of two
Showtime 24-Cam just LOVES having his big WR target back, and Dev just might be the biggest beneficiary of that especially considering where he drafted Benjamin
Up In Smoke-Another week, another disastrous injury this time to Doug Martin. At least Sameer planned for this one considering Charles Sims is on his bench
