Boris’s Week 18 Autopsy

What a Sunday that was. The $3 late afternoon only (4 o'clock games) Playaction contest only had about 60,000 entries yesterday, so with 6 games in the 4 o'clock window, I opted to give that a couple whirls and I was flirting with a heavy pay day for awhile there. In

Boris’s Week 18 DFS Writeup

Week 18...that just sounds weird. Incentives is the name of the game in Week 18. Some teams are incentivized to win for playoff implications or because their coach is an egomaniac/looking to keep his job. Some players on the other hand have literal incentives attached to their contracts or have found

Boris’s Week 17 DFS Writeup

Welcome to week 17, aka mega week as there are 14!! games on the Sunday slate. There's a lot more information to go through, but we're still going to try and cash in gpp for the 4th week in row and maybe even take one down! Here is the current

So, the Bowl matchups for what King Hippo affectionately calls JV Footy came out and I was perusing them and had some thoughts. Ergo Ipso Factum Testiculum, here we are. There are a grand total of 44 (FORTY FOUR!) bowl games this year, so I am breaking them into pieces

Boris’s Week 16 Autopsy

It was my 3rd week in a row creating 50 gpp lineups and it was my 3rd week in a row finding success with the process. What I'm looking for here is one lineup that has a chance to take down an entire contest. Now, thanks to my exposures to

Boris’s Week 16 DFS Writeup

Merry Christmas or whatever you practice, all! I apologize in advance if any of the following information is outdated because of Covid or other unforeseen circumstances. Like most, I have been quite busy on Christmas Eve and this morning, so much of this article was completed by Thursday afternoon. If any

First Covid-delayed game Open Thread

Today there's BONUS football! It's the Cleveland Browns visiting the Las Vegas Raiders at the Al Davis Memorial Mausoleum! With Jim Harbaugh shitting the bed yesterday (Yes, I still think he made a bad decision), the Browns have a chance to create a 3-way tie with the Ravens and the

Boris’s Week 15 Autopsy (and Monday Night Thoughts!)

Lamar Who?? My best Lineup (189.2) Huntley Robinson Jones Claypool Cooks Davis Kittle Andrews Bills One Winner (224.4) Huntley Wilson Foreman Kirk Cooks St. Brown Andrews Adams Texans Another Winner (228.4) Huntley Wilson Robinson Cooks Davis Gage Andrews Adams Cowboys I came in the black/green again as a 1.98% Huntley was absolutely the play. The bonus (fake) news about Lamar possibly playing was a glorious thing that fell right into our laps this morning. Somewhere around 40,000 feet (and a fuck

#TransformerNuAIDS – Sweeping the Premiership! Lesser Open Thread

Shitting on Urban Meyer's Jaguras grave will never get old.  Bask in its warming glow. Will the two fixtures left standing (as of this writing) even go forward?  I have my doubts.  I also don't really give a fuck, because of what I said last week (Everton being ruined by an

Boris’s Week 14 Autopsy

With about 1:38 left in the Buffalo v Tampa game yesterday, it was 4th and 4 for Josh Allen and the Bills. I was praying that the Bucs would stop them and end the game right there. The reason? Ja'Marr Chase had just caught his second TD in the SF
