Just in time for the first cold front of fall, league managers scramble to patch their rosters as Week 5 ushers in the first bye-week blast of the season.
Team Rankings continue to squish as this week’s lineup offers a monster head-to-head matchup amidst the mostly pithy slap-fights. And yet, as the wise Bobby Hill once said via his All-American athlete ventriloquist dummy, Chip, “a W’s a W anyway you get it.”
And as Bobby’s dad Hank poetically added, “my son plays with dolls. There, I said it.”
Chip is right, and every W matters. But with a bone-dry waiver wire and a cooling trade-block, who will get lucky enough to secure the next win? The dice have been rolled.
Good thing we have fall baseball, with its two fantastic teams—and subsequently, some dirty laudry—to distract us.
It’s the greatest fantasy football league in the world, and this is its podcast.
