Shaggy's Picks and Shenanigans - Week Two

Ray Rice has been cut by the Ravens and suspended indefinitely.  I really haven’t seen much on this story.  It’s not on ESPN, the major news networks or social media.  So, I just wanted to make sure that everyone here knew.

“Shaggy’s Picks” is gonna have a new look for the 2014-15 season.  I’m not going to be picking NFL matchups anymore.  Instead, I’ll be randomly picking our fantasy matchups.  

This will involve a lot of coin flipping, some dart throwing and even some eeny meeny miney mo.

There is also a zero per cent chance that this blog will ever come out on a Monday.  I know I’m gonna catch huge amounts of flak for that but tough cookies.

Onto my picks:

Curtis, I’m going to beat you. This is my “lock of the week” and I don’t need to say anything else about it so I won’t.

53 Fire @ I Do L.T.P.A. (Love To Play Accounting)


Pops has already made his 739th QB change of the season, reverting to Robert Griffin the Turd, as well as benching Nick’s man crush, Victor Cruz, in favor of Mike Wallace.  The key to this game is Corey’s Curse.  With five player’s already on the injury report, including his starting QB, RB, and both WRs, Corey is still favored by five points. If at least two of those guys play on Sunday, I’ve got Corey winning.

Quick sidenote here. I woke up Monday morning up on Nick by 9 and down in my other league by 46 with Stafford and Megatron to go. I knew there was no way Nick’s three remaining players would fail to put up 9 but I had no idea that Megatron and Stafford would combine for 69. So at least I came away with one W. Anyway, Will is gonna start 0-2. Sorry bud.

Luck Has It @ Hakka Flocka Flame


James Jones? Really? # 1 on ESPN’s Top 10 plays of the weekend.  Sneaky, sneaky Cheryl. This one comes down to who gets the touchdowns. Hint: score more points than the other team and you win. Cheryl has Julio and Matt’s got Roddy.  Both guys are gonna get looks but who comes down with the TD grab? I think Andre Johnson is going look 10 years younger. If you replaced Houston’s receivers with clones of Tina, the Raiders still wouldn’t be able to cover anything. Cheryl in a close one.

Cobra Commanders @ Rank This


As much as I hate Peyton right now for throwing all three of his TDs to the wrong Thomas and then doing NOTHING in the second half, Peyton and Brees and are going to cancel each other out. If Lacy plays he cancels out Lynch. The rest of it is a crapshoot. Dave, I have no idea why you are starting Gronk and Witten with Cobb on the bench. And for that reason alone I’m picking Mom to win. Oh, by the way, Ray Rice got cut.
