The Wire Troll: The 2010 Batting All-Stars

It’s time to look back at the season to date and give those waiver wire gems their due respect. It has been an amazing year and as always the waiver wire was huge in determining the overall outcomes in league play. This week, we’ll review the offense followed up by a review of the pitching next Sunday. Without further ado, let’s get rolling and recap some of the gems that made our 2010 Fantasy season cause for celebration.

Dear RotoRob: Brees or Forte?

To me, Amendola is a JAG. You don’t win in the NFL throwing 40 times per game — ask both your Fantasy QBs, who rank first and fourth in attempts and have a combined record of 0-4 — and I can’t believe the Rams are going to keep passing this much. That’s how you get your young franchise QB killed. The jury is still out on both Williams and Naanee, but San Diego’s passing attack is legit, something you can’t say for Seattle or St. Louis. Naanee has more potential in that offense than the other two at this point.

Video Game Review: Sonic Adventure

With the Xbox 360 controller being essentially a modernized version of the Dreamcast’s, things should be familiar in regards to button mapping. However, the analog stick seems alternately unresponsive and entirely too sensitive — two extremely different yet equally annoying issues. I had trouble doing mundane things like picking up coins on the run, and I would also get hung up on areas I don’t recall having trouble with in the original game. After a few hours I was able to compensate better, but it’s still too inconsistent.

2010-11 RotoRob NBA Draft Kit: Top 10 Sleepers

Ah, sleepers. We all love ’em, we all want ’em, and everyone has his own idea of how to spot ’em. We tend to favour the time-honoured method of looking for good players who were formerly mired in less-than-ideal circumstances, and now are largely free of those limitations. If we could sum up this list of under-the-radar talents in just one word, that word would be: opportunity. Many of these ten players either have relocated to a more favourable setting, or stand to be the prime beneficiary of their team’s off-season moves.

2010-11 RotoRob NBA Draft Kit: Busts

The days of KG being an automatic first or even second round pick are well in the rear view mirror. And those that still reach for him anywhere before the fifth or sixth round just based on name recognition are setting themselves up for a huge fall. Garnett’s production plummeted as soon as he became part of the Big Three in Boston, but now you have to also worry about how fragile his knees have become. His range isn’t anywhere near where it was during his prime and the 34-year-old doesn’t even average a block per game any longer.
