    We're back! After taking a couple of weeks off due to back-to-back hurricanes, we now find ourselves in the back half of the season heading into week 9. It's been tough sledding thus far for everyone but two owners, the only two owners with winning records. No one else. In fact, an entire division has no one with a winning record. No thanks to the disappearance of all the WRs. Week 9 doesn't provide much help as several owners find themselves with a tough draw, despite Yahoo projecting big points for all teams this weekend. Will Tim extend his league lead to 7-2? Will Sean FINALLY exercise his Monday night demons, or will Gordon have the last laugh? What a season. Follow along as our Yahoo League is public HERE.

    Week 2 is now in the rearview mirror, and I feel like this is a replay of last season when virtually no one could remain upright. Everyone but Gordon had vital squad members go down with injuries, and some owners have already filled up their IR slots. If this keeps up, we'll all be playing with backups and waiver wire pickups. Week 3 could see an early division leader further separate himself and set up a potential 4-0 start, while our current champ is hoping to avoid the dreaded 0-3 start.

    So excited to be back for the 2024 Season as we start our 10th season of the Lakewood Ranch Fantasy Football Dad's league and our 5th season of the podcast! With our draft and week 1 in the books, surprises abound. Shane kept the wrong Robinson, Jason drafted a kicker in the 6th round and has a dumpster fire of a WR room as a result, CMC's late scratch cost an owner the W and subsequent stint on the IR adds insult to injury, and finally, kickers still doing kicker things and putting up big points. And that was just week 1. Week 2 sees multiple owners staring at a 0-2 start, including the current Champ. And at least one owner already looking to make a trade. Bonus, next week Sean will start a new segment of Hard Rock Bets and DFS locks as we all can use all the help we can get.

As we look forward to week 6, we're expecting kickers to continue to put on a show, we're going to get some separation in the Maulers division, and Gordon should birth a new league juggernaut by the end of this week's games.

But rather than go through the details of the last two weeks, Sean and I thought we should do a first half of the regular season recap for you all. Heading into week eight games, no one team is out of it. Sean and I cover everything from Sage Yahoo Auto Draft's performance or lack thereof thru the first half of the regular season; to Gordon officially having the worst luck in fantasy football, and if you want to know why Sean is taking Gabor to the Mystic Village to see a Shaman about a "thing"...well, we cover that as well.

    Oh, what a week, I could not have asked for a better outcome for week 4's games. The setup for week 5, which just so happens to be our first of two rivalry weeks, is fantastic. With all the owners in the Hair Legends division sitting at overall records of 2-2 and all owners playing each other this week there will be some separation in the division when it's all said and done. Couple that with Sage Yahoo Autodraft's week 4 meltdown and you have an interesting weekend ahead! Can I prevent Sean from getting his first divisional game win? Will Tim take down Doug-E-Fresh for a commanding 2-0 division record and the outright division lead? Can Gordon break the "best game of the season" curse? All this and more will be decided in week 5.

With week 2 upon us, we could see last season's last-place finisher start 2-0, and the man none of us want to see start 2-0 do so as well. Perhaps I can have something to say about that if CMC actually gets the workload he's supposed to get.
