Fantasy Football Draft Results And Preview - Part...

With the 2nd Annual JC.com Fantasy Football Draft complete, each team owner from the pre-determined You Wish You Were As Cool And Handsome As Jimmy Conference will display their team name, projected starters, and a quick summation of why they will be crowned champion this year.  The Please Raise Your Children To Be Like Jimmy Conference will be unveiled tomorrow.

 

THE WISH YOU WERE AS COOL AND HANDSOME AS JIMMY CONFERENCE

 

TEAM #1

 

Owner:  Receptionist Gail Sands

 

Team Name:  The Garbage Gail Kids

 

Team Logo:  

 

Projected Starters:

 

QB:  Matt Schaub – HOU

RB:  Maurice Jones-Drew – JAX

RB:  Ronnie Brown – MIA

WR:  Roddy White – ATL

WR:  Vincent Jackson – SD

RB/WR:  Eddie Royal – DEN

TE:  Kellen Winslow – TB

K:  Mason Crosby – K

DEF:  Tennessee

 

Summary:  “I think I reached a little with selecting Matt Schaub in the 5th round but I think the rest of my draft was spot on.  I have solid running backs, a good, young receiving corps, and a good kicker and defense.  Like usual, Know-It-All Jones claims my team is terrible but I think he is a sexist jerk who should be praying his team doesn’t face mine come playoff time.  Anyone have a cigarette?”

 

TEAM #2

 

Owner:  Pianist Matthew Petrosa

 

Team Name:  The New Kids On The Bach

 

Team Logo:  

 

Projected Starters:

 

QB:  Aaron Rodgers – GB

RB:  Michael Turner – ATL

RB:  Marion Barber III – DAL

WR:  Calvin Johnson – DET

WR:  Braylon Edwards – CLE

RB/WR:  Derrick Ward – TB

TE:  Dustin Keller – NYJ

K:  Ryan Longwell – MIN

DEF:  New York Giants

 

Summary:  “This being my first time involved in anything fantasy-related, outside of my unhealthy adoration of Beethoven which I went to counseling for after my mom caught me in the middle of night sleepwalking nude with my tighty-whiteys on my head as I mumbled “I wish I was Beethoven” over and over, I think my team is pretty good.”

 

TEAM #3

 

Team Owner:  MLS Beat Reporter The Skipper

 

Team Name:  Washington Redskins

 

Team Logo:  

 

Projected Starters:

 

QB:  Jason Campbell – WSH

RB:  Clinton Portis – WSH

RB:  Ray Rice – BAL

WR:  Antwaan Randle El – WSH

WR:  Santana Moss – WSH

RB/WR:  Ladell Betts – WSH

TE:  Chris Cooley – WSH

DEF:  Washington Redskins

 

Summary:  “I live in the D.C. area, I was born in the D.C. area, and I love the Redskins.  I would never cheer against them.  **** everyone else.   Except, of course, running back Ray Rice from the Redskins archrival, Baltimore Ravens.  He was inexplicably left until the 8th round so I snatched him up.  I know I’ll be viewed as a traitor by the Redskins faithful but he was left until the 8th round!  If they can forgive Mayor Marion Berry for his many indiscretions and the current Washington Nationals for even existing, then they can forgive me.”

 

TEAM #4

 

Team Owner:  Janitor Jobe McHenry

 

Team Name:  Laying Pipe

 

Team Logo:  

 

Projected Starters:

 

QB:  Tony Romo – DAL

RB:  Chris Johnson – TEN

RB:  Thomas Jones – NYJ

WR:  Anquan Boldin – ARI

WR:  Marques Colston – NO

RB/WR:  Chris Chambers – SD

TE:  Owen Daniels – HOU

K:  Robbie Gould – CHI

DEF:  San Diego Chargers

 

Summary:  “First off, I think The Skipper has drafted the worst team in fantasy football history.  I mean, what happens when the real Redskins have a bye week?  Second, due to his idiocy and the fact that I drafted after him, he basically handed me the championship.  I started bragging as much right after the draft finished about how easy this is going to be for me this year, you know, normal banter in a friendly competition and Know-It-All Jones told me to ‘Shut the **** up and go clean some toilets.’  I hate that guy.”

 

TEAM #5

 

Team Owner:  Legal Consultant Jean DuBois

 

Team Name:  The Constitutional Amendments

 

Team Logo:  

 

Projected Starters:

 

QB:  Drew Brees – NO

RB:  Kevin Smith – DET

RB:  Darren McFadden – OAK

WR:  Andre Johnson – HOU

WR:  Roy Williams – DAL

RB/WR:  Chad Ochocinco – CIN

TE:  Greg Olsen – CHI

K:  Jason Elam - DEN

DEF:  Philadelphia Eagles

 

Summary:  “I turned down the invite to join in initially because I have never played before but after Know-It-All Jones said that “******* don’t know ****,” I figured why not?  What do I have to lose?  So like any good lawyer, I did a lot of research to find case history of fantasy teams that have won in the past to minimize my mistakes come draft time and upon reflection, I’ll concede that my running backs are a little thin but everywhere else I’m so good that I think I could sway a jury to believe that overall my team is the best.”

 

TEAM #6

 

Team Owner:  Staff Writer Umberto Zappia

 

Team Name:  The Baltimore Colts

 

Team Logo:  

 

Projected Starters:

 

QB:  Donovan McNabb – PHI

RB:  Adrian Peterson – MIN

RB:  Jonathan Stewart – CAR

WR:  Reggie Wayne – IND

WR:  Greg Jennings – GB

RB/WR:  Antonio Bryant – TB

TE:  Kevin Boss – NYG

K:  Nate Kaeding – SD

DEF:  New York Giants

 

Summary:  “We are going all the way this year. Why? Because we are a fundamentally sound football club. We play as a unit. We stick with, as I said in the first sentence, the fundamentals. We have every intention of playing one game at a time. We are not going to turn the ball over. We are not going to make stupid mistakes that will hurt our chances of winning. If we don't do all the things listed above; then we will come in something other than first.
