Ask Doc Rummy: Bad Advice from A Good Man (Sort Of)

Sometimes answering our follower lineup and trade questions isn’t enough. Those in the trenches and front offices wring their hands week to week, and have real (fake) questions that need answers. Doctor Rummy is here to help. Put your feet up on the couch, and tell me about your childhood..

 

 

Dear Dr. Rummy,

Admit it, I’m both an entertainer & an icon! You were a hater, c’mon, look at my smile, it’s flawless! Plus, I can ball, right?

Sincerely,

Cam Newton

 

Dear Cam,

Hot Garbage Waiver Wire (with Thinkers & Stinkers and Flex Luthor of Week 6!)

First BYE Week is in the books, and fantasy teams look to add depth to their respective championship benches. Zero in on the waiver wire targets that can help you win week to week, and look ahead to your fantasy playoffs...

Dear Dr. Rummy,

 

Did you see those two TD passes I threw on Monday night? How was my hair? So excited I could shit!

Dear Curtis,

The NEW Hot Garbage Waiver Wire!!

As we align our fantasy rosters with the bye week planets, the waiver wire is a bit thin going into week five, but there is still value to be had, and plug and play as bye week Supermen. Plenty to think & stink about as well. *NOTE* A bit of re-tooling for the usual "Hot Garbage" piece, as I will highlight only high priority adds, and "Cold Garbage" players that you should avoid taking the bait on going forward. Also, my "FLEX LUTHOR OF THE WEEK" will be a one week play (not necessarily a WW add), in an ideal spot. Could be any skill position, offensive of defensive.

Dear Dr. Rummy,

Week 4 Waivers and "Thinkers & Stinkers", from Razzball.com's Jeff Brubach

 

Rumford Johnny was questionable for this week’s hot garbage column with a left hand contusion (non-mouse clicking hand), so I, Jeff Brubach, have been claimed off the waiver wire to highlight which players will be creating the waiver garbage heap aroma wafting your way. Hopefully 2MugsFF didn’t blow a high waiver priority on THAT pickup. Let’s get right into which players are worth snagging, as well as a few of my own “Thinkers & Stinkers”…

 

Stepping In #2 ( Examining the role of the #2 WR, with guest writer, Jeff Brubach)

It's easy to target a number one WR on a prolific passing offense, and expect fantasy gold, but what about the often overlooked and undervalued #2 options? It can get muddied in big offenses, where they spread the wealth around, but I've asked razzball.com's Jeff Brubach, to impart his wisdom of the subject, and as always, two mugs are better than one. You can follow Jeff on Twitter .

Jeff’s Take....

 

Thinkers, Stinkers & Hot Garbage (The Return of The Waiver Wire) MONDAY NIGHT UPDATE

Thinkers, Stinkers & Hot Garbage (Waiver Wire) Our week 2 Sunday action is in the books, and unfortunately one poor sap's misery, could be another sap's joy. I'll gladly be late for my day job tomorrow, just to get the 2Mugs FF faithful the hot stank off the waiver wire heap. Let's get to work....

 

Thinkers & Stinkers ( with Bonus: "Flex Luthor of the Week!"

The first Sunday of the NFL Fantasy Season is in the books, and we already have some interesting developments. Before I get to those, the TRIUMPHANT RETURN OF "FLEX LUTHOR!" Last year I told you about sneaky diamonds in the rough, like Lil' Stevie Johnson in Buffalo. This week? A familiar name....

 

Thinkers & Stinkers (Rummy on Strategy)

The regular season is set to kick off on Thursday, and some of you are set to partake in your final fantasy draft of the year. Before you do, give this a quick once over on the hopper.

 

2 Mugs Fantasy Football League: 14-Team Draft Summary and Analysis

This was certainly the most interesting draft I’ve ever done.  With my partner @RumfordJohnny still living in the pre-Ben Franklin era, courtesy of Hurricane Irene, I was drafting for both of us.  I had Johnny on the phone, rattling off every pick to him, while he sat in his car (the only source of a phone charger) contemplating who to take with every pick.  In the end, it all worked out…anything is better than autopick.
