Don't worry about sucking, 49ers. Nobody's watching tonight anyway.Well it's about time to put the lid back on the NFL and let simmer for 6 more days on medium heat, stirring occasionally. In other words, it's Monday Night. This is possibly the least interesting MNF matchup of the year, and that's not saying much, as they've definitely shown us some snoozers. Lucky for our fantasy landscape, not many of us are dependent on tonight's contest to determine our fates.
Let's take a look at what should be the only fantasy game impacted by tonight's (in)action.
Game 1: Mike (10.2 points) vs. Aaron (Matt Hasselbeck)
Honestly I think this is pretty much a slam dunk for Aaron to win. However, the weather forecast out of Seattle tonight is showing wind gusts of up to 60 MPH, which could make passing just a tad more difficult. While I certainly think the overall passing numbers should be tamed in this one, it's expecting too much for San Fran's defense to hold Matt Hasselbeck to under 100 yards and a score, which without any interceptions, is all it would take for Aaron to win. Aaron will get by, but probably not by much.
Re-reading what I wrote above, I sense a melancholy tone coming from my keyboard. I'm sorry to be Debbie Downer, but I just found out that Adrian Peterson tore a Lateral Collateral Ligament (that can't possibly be right, Lateral Co-Lateral??), which I hear is the least important ligament, but still one of those rubber bands that holds your leg bones together, so it's still somewhat necessary for proper running form.
Alas, I've avoided the injury bug far too long this season and probably had it coming.

The game is the Lion's season opener and it's at 7pm. The Nits feature 6 new players (2 true, 2 redshirt freshman and 2 JUCOs) Tune in!
And suddenly the Niners-Seahawks game doesn't sound so bad...
Ha, zinger! Seriously, I'd rather watch a bug slowly drown in my toilet than PSU vs. St. Francis.
Here's hoping that Matt Hasselbeck goes into some odd rage like his sister-in-law and throws a Manning-esque 11 interceptions.
Don't forget - PSU in the Old Spice Classic over thanksgiving weekend. See the Lions battle teams from around the country at the Disney World Sports complex. The field of 8 features:

GET YOUR CRAPPY SPAM OFF OF MY BLOG, PSU HOOPS GUY!!!
how was the game?
PSU looked like crap on defense and won ugly 77-67. They just had too many athletes for St. Francis.
Pardon me, 74-64.
Craig,
Obviously what we need here is a PSU basketball preview blog posting!!! You can give a team overview with strengths and weaknesses, and then do game by game predictions!!
You can answer the important questions, like: "What is Geary Claxton's favorite breakfast meat?", while providing all the important insight we need to get to know our beloved Nittany Lions hoops squad!
Fist me!!
Rich, that is nasty.
No!
That was yours truly, Mr. 10Cane!
