A Six-pack of Quarterbacks to Remember in 2009 for Dynasty Teams, Keepers and Sleepers
As the NFL draft approaches, we all get a little antsy for football season to start. We start salivating over the latest and greatest rookie talent and their the flashy 40-yard dash times, and we forget about all the players from last year’s draft, the ones we talked up to our buddies every Saturday watching [...]
A Fool and His Money in Week 13
While your fantasy season might be coming to an end, there are still plenty of spreads to be picked. Here’s how it’s going down this week…
Tennessee Titans at Detroit Lions
Fools Take: Titans (-10.5) over LIONS
Nick says: How about a round of applause for the Tennessee Titans? Nobody expected an undefeated season, and it was a [...]
A Fool and His Money in Week 12
We haven’t had a lot of fancy talk here at the top of “A Fool and His Money” these last few weeks, but that’s because, just like any NFL franchise, we focus during this part of the season. The games start to matter more, and we’re ready to get down to business.
Let’s not waste any [...]
A Fool and His Money in Week 11
It’s go time. Once again, a ‘$’ marks all of Nick’s locks of the week while a ‘#’ marks all of Chadam’s locks.
Thursday Night Football: New York Jets at New England Patriots
SPLIT DECISION!
Chadam Takes: Jets (+3) over PATRIOTS
Nick Takes: PATRIOTS (-3) over Jets
In taking the Jets, Chadam says: I’ll admit, I’m sucked in to this [...]
Foolish Thoughts on Week 10: Enter the tight end zone
Do yourself a favor and forget everything that happened in the first half of the season. As we’ve seen from the past two weeks, not every team is going to bow out of the season quietly. The Chiefs, 49ers and Seahawks might surprise a few top contenders before they put a nail in the 2008 [...]
A Fool and His Money in Week 10
No intro. No nonsense. This week, we’re all about the picks, now featuring “locks” of the week.
Note: The ‘$‘ will signify Nick’s “locks” of the week from this point forward while a ‘#‘ will mark Chadam’s favorite bets.
New Orleans Saints at Atlanta Falcons
Fools Take: FALCONS (+0) over Saints
Nick says: I think this will be a [...]
On the Wire: Waiver Wire Free-for-all from Week 9
It’s time for change, America.
Bring me your injured, your underperforming, your studs gone duds. Together, we can reshape your fantasy team for the future into a team without injustice, without phantom starts (see: Willis McGahee) and without any of Shanahan’s running backs — well, maybe just one.
Yes, we can. Yes, we can. YES, WE CAN.
And [...]
A Fool and His Money in Week 7
This week, I wanted to educate you on two of my favorite types of bets, the parlay and the progressive parlay. With these two wagers, you can arm yourself with the tools necessary to lose money like Chadam and I do. Excited?

A parlay is when you combine several point-spread wagers into [...]
On the Wire: Waiver Wire Hardships from Week 6
As I listened to the end of the Texas-OU game while hunched over in a car on my way to a wedding this weekend, two things occurred to me: 1) people REALLY shouldn’t get married the same weekend as the Texas-OU game and 2) there could be a large amount of rookie quarterbacks coming into [...]
Foolish Thoughts on Week 6: Last-second nonsense
Who is the better Manning now? I think Peyton Manning put ex-lax in his brother’s Gatorade this week. It was time to shut up the critics. Peyton gets three touchdowns; Eli gets three picks. At least in fantasy, it looks like Peyton may have reclaimed his top spot on the Manning mantel for now.
And Eli [...]
