EA Sports Responds To Fan's YouTube Video

I came across an interesting post at Micropersuasion.com A fan posted on YouTube that it's possible for Woods to hit a golf ball in Tiger Woods 08 while walking on water. In return, EA sports capitalizes on the "glitch" by showing how its actually done. Simultaneously, it promotes Tiger Woods 09.



Let me know what you think about this video.

I know it's been a long time since my last post, but I've been a little busy during the offseason. Preparing for the GMAT and work really took a lot of my time. However, I am ready to get down to fantasy business.

I drafted my new fantasy team for the 2008-09 NFL season and here are the results:

QBs - Carson Palmer and Aaron Rodgers
RBs - Steven Jackson, Laurence Maroney, Michael Turner, Thomas Jones and Rashard Mendenhall
WRs - T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Greg Jennings, Jerricho Cotchery and Jerry Porter
TEs - Todd Heap and Ben Utecht
K - Mason Crosby
DEF - Steelers

I'm currently trading Houshmandzadeh for Roy Williams and Santonio Holmes. This should help solidfy my WR corp in case one or more players get injured or have an off year. Does anyone know of any sleepers I should be looking for? Who is worth adding or dropping?

2007 Fantasy Football Results

I feel that my fantasy football experience for 2007 was both positive and successful. Also, I feel that I learned a great deal about fantasy football in 2007. I ended up finishing 1st in Yahoo fantasy league Yahoo Public 352092 and 2nd NBM Fantasy League.

Looking forward, I plan to watch some of the college bowl games, check out the NFL combine, NFL draft and provide some insight to rookies who may have some impact. Also, I'll try to research NFL team defenses to see if any possible sleepers emerge like Seattle did this year.

Also, I am looking to see what people think about Greg Camarillo. He has definitely played well for the Miami Dolphins as of late and I wonder what his fantasy value may be going into next year. Please leave comments if you have any opinions about this or any other players for next season.

Make sure to read this blog frequently as I will post things periodically throughout the off-season.

Week 13 Fantasy Football Results

Unfortunately I lost my week 13 match-up by a score of 145-122. However, I still managed to keep my number two position in the league. My league allows six teams to make the playoffs with teams in first and second place receiving BYE's. Therefore, I get a little break this week since I don't have to play any teams. However, I found out that Reggie Bush may be out for the rest of the season. I'll make sure to keep everyone posted about this injury. I know I am concerned. I am playing in a PPR (Point Per Reception) league and I am hoping Bush plays again this year simply because I gain a lot of points as a result of him catching passes out of the backfield.

Week 12 Results

I managed to pull out a sensational win defeating my opponent by a score of 152-118. Unfortunately, I am beginning to have concerns about Reggie Bush's performance. I do not feel he is a premiere running back. Fortunately, I'm in a PPR (Point Per Reception) league so he may have some value. However, I won't be playing him every week like I have in the past. I will be more selective only playing him when the match-ups are favorable. My week 12 results are shown below.

Washington Redskins Safety Sean Taylor is Shot

I'm not sure what fantasy implications this will have, but Washington Redskins Safety Sean Taylor was shot in the leg according to Fox News. Obviously, this affects you more if you play individual defensive players versus a team defense. Nonetheless, the Washington Redskins secondary has been pretty solid all year. Taylor was been a key contributor from a fantasy standpoint during week 6. However, he hasn't been much of a factor since then.

Just Another Lame Duck Fantasy Sports Blog

I know my blog is a little blah at this point. However, my goal is to provide more quantitative information down the road (i.e. next season). I will make a point to release fantasy draft information and weekly player rankings as next year approaches. Unfortunately, we are nearing the end of the fantasy football season for 2007-08 and I'm trying to make a push for the play-offs. Therefore, stay-tuned and Get Yo Pop Tarts Ready!
