Week 6 Fantasy Football Power Rankings

  1. Balls Mahoney - Obviously I'm a force to be reckoned with this year. Superior drafting, management skills and remarkable good looks make my team the obvious choice for number 1.
  2. Dead Rabbits - These guys are the big movers. After being left for dead the first two weeks of the season, they've been on quite a scoring binge. I'm still not a huge fan of the personnel on the team, but hey, things are looking up.
  3. Ditka in Your Face - You talk smack consistently, from what I can tell, so that bumps you a couple spots in the rankings. As always, the more trash talking the better. Keep up the good work.
  4. Cincinnati Bowtie - Was everyone aware that Stamper's mom has her own pumpkin patch? There was some speculation that the Mr. Frost mentioned in her email today might just be a creepy neighbor rather than just frost that occurs when it gets cold at night. The jury is still out on this one.
  5. Knights Who Say Ne - I know nothing about this team, but 16 roster moves? That's insane.
  6. The Jarheads - Yes, I've been a little hard on these guys. But they are also the highest scoring team in the league. Yet due to managerial incompetence, they are currently the #8 team in the standings. I guess this is the place where I should say "I told you so."
  7. Purple Cobras - Two straight wins for these guys has them back in the playoff race in this league of parity. Unbelievable. Obviously they get a huge power rankings boost for knocking off #1 a couple of weeks ago. Hey, even the best of us have their off weeks.
  8. I Pity the Fool - I think this might be the lightning in a bottle team, kind of like what the Bears are doing right now. You know, they don't look like much on paper, but they somehow manage to get it done each week.
  9. Gang Green - These guys are the overachievers of the year, without question. Their best player, Steve Smith, has been kind of a bust this season. The emergence of Eli Manning has helped, no doubt. But I can't see three wins all season out of these guys, much less three wins in five weeks.
  10. TD Disco King - Jake Plummer is starting this week against Oakland, so I give you a decent chance of having a big day. Tiki Barber is killing you (no TD's all season yet) so there's still plenty of time to rebound.
  11. KUSUX - Apparently these guys are the token "looks great on paper, sucks in the standings" team of our league this year. It happened to Scott Cooper last year. But who knows, since 1st place and 11th place are separated by only one game, anything can happen.
  12. Get Your Goose On - Disappointing all around. It's gotten to the point where nobody even makes fun of your sister anymore. Or was it Stamper's sister? Either way, you're in dead last.
