The Word of Mitch Lord – Fantasy’s Penultimate Regular Season Edition

Mitch Lord, Staff Writer
December 22, 2012

As a majority of the fantasy football leagues will be coming to an end this week, I feel obligated to discuss how my season went. The league I pay most attention to/care most about is a league with a bunch of my dad’s friends and I share the team with my brother. We won our first game by 40 points... Read more »

The Word of Mitch Lord – Week 15

Mitch Lord, Staff Writer
December 16, 2012

I messed up. Last week I wrote Bryce Brown was the real deal. He’s not — or at least, not yet. Those two games, right now, appear to have been a fluke. In his first two career starts against the Panthers and Cowboys, Brown set the world on fire, rushing for over 150 yards and two scores in each... Read more »

The Word of Mitch Lord – Fantasy Week Fourteen

Mitch Lord, Staff Writer
December 8, 2012

It’s that time of the year again — playoff time. In ESPN standard leagues, Week 14 marks the beginning of the playoffs. If you made the playoffs, congratulations. If you didn’t, you clearly didn’t read my column. This is the most crucial time of the year. You have one chance — if you... Read more »

The Word of Mitch Lord: Week 13 Love/Hate in the NFL

Mitch Lord, Staff Writer
November 30, 2012

I will never understand why so many people join a fantasy football league only to forget about it a few weeks into the season. From a young age, I was taught to always honor a commitment, so to join a league and never update your team, to me, at least, is just inconsiderate. What makes it even more difficult... Read more »

The Word of Mitch Lord – Thanksgiving Week in the NFL

MItch Lord, Staff Writer
November 21, 2012

There aren’t many things better than Thanksgiving. Spending time with the family, all the food and all the football. There aren’t many things worse than working on Thanksgiving — which is exactly what I’ll be doing. The only thing that would make working on Thanksgiving somewhat bearable... Read more »

The Word of Mitch Lord – Lovin’ and Hatin’ in Week Eleven

Mitch Lord, Staff Writer
November 16, 2012

Teams on a bye: Vikings, Titans, Seahawks, Giants Between his Heisman trophy, his crazy socks, and all his Subway commercials, I can see why so many people are hypnotized into believing Robert Griffin III is the best rookie in the NFL. Guess what. He’s not. He’s not even close. Andrew Luck is. Make... Read more »

The Word of Mitch Lord – Week 10 Fantasy Love/Hate

Mitch Lord, Staff Writer
November 9, 2012

Teams on a bye: Browns, Packers, Cardinals, Redskins As Week 10 came to a close on Monday night, we were forced to suffer through another Eagles loss, this one was to the 3-5 Saints — the Eagles made them look like they were undefeated. The certainty of Andy Reid’s job has been up in the air... Read more »

The Word of Mitch Lord; Who’s Looking Great for Week 8?

Mitch Lord, Staff Writer
October 26, 2012

Teams on a bye: Ravens, Texans, Bills, Bengals When a group of people loses its leader, chaos erupts within the group, while it may not always show, that uncertain feeling is undoubtedly hidden deep inside. All of a sudden, each person is on his own, with no guidance from that one person whom everyone... Read more »

The Word of Mitch Lord – Fantasy Football Love/Hate for Week 7

Mitch Lord, Staff Writer
October 20, 2012

Every week, we take the time to set our lineups and torment ourselves over which players to start and which players to sit. There are players who we know are almost always going to deliver a good performance week in and week out (Calvin Johnson, Aaron Rodgers, Ray Rice, Drew Brees, etc.). Then, there... Read more »

The Word of Mitch Lord – More Fantasy Football Fodder

Mitch Lord, Staff Writer
October 12, 2012

Three weeks ago, while my mom was attending back-to-school night, I was home alone, enjoying a rare tranquil environment. For me, my peace comes when I’m sitting on the couch with my dog, watching sports. So, after I finished all my work, that’s exactly what I did. As I soaked in all the peace and... Read more »
