As mentioned in an earlier post, NY Football Blogs Live will have a new segment with two experts in the field of Fantasy Football ( Well maybe not really experts, but guys who play in a lot of leagues ). Paul Collins and Anthony Aniano will be better known as the : “Two Fantasy Football Freaks” as they will preview each game and give you the best players to play and sit. They will also talk about how they are doing in their own leagues.
You will even get the chance to play against them in the first ever ” NY Football Blogs Fantasy Football League” ( Beat Our 2 Fantasy Football Freaks ). There will be ore details to follow regarding the fantasy league. For now , let’s get to know the “Two Fantasy Football Freaks” a little better:
Paul Collins Bio
Paul is a veteran fantasy football player. Has been playing since Marshall Faulk was a hot commodity to have. He does not have a basic strategy going in, however,Paul often looks for big payoffs from the late round picks. He is aware he can get burned with that strategy, but many times it has paid off for his fantasy teams. Paul is currently in 3 leagues and will join more just so he can prove his winning ways.
Anthony ( Tony ) Aniano
Anthony has been a devout fantasy football and baseball participant for the past twelve years. He follows a strong belief of drafting the best player available while always leaning towards drafting youth. He has been involved in leagues through work, childhood friends, and family. These leagues have allowed Anthony much success and an equal amount of heartbreak. He looks forward to bringing his knowledge to the listeners as well as another successful football season.
According to the New York Jets ( through the Daily News ), Nick Mangold will play Monday night’s Pre-Season game against the Houston Texans. Mangold left practice earlier in the week after being hit in the neck area in a collision. Mangold described his feeling “as numb in the area” ,which would be a concern for any player after a collision on the field. Rex Ryan was also concerned when he saw that Mangold was not moving after the play was over.
The good news is it seems for the Jets and Nick Mangold to be minor and he will indeed be on the field in Texas on Monday when the Jets take on the Houston Texans.
Since Osi Umeniyora’s knee doe not any immediate attention, it seems almost a no brainer he will return on Monday to Giants practice. This does not mean much yet since his agent has mentioned there are still many things they have to iron out. With that being said, both sides are confident things will be worked out. For Giants
It has now become official Plaxico Burress will sit out Monday’s game against the Texans. Burress will not even fly with the team. Rex Ryan announce today that he will not play Plaxico on Monday due to the ankle which has kept him out of many practices so far in this short pre-season.
If nothing else, this will help Burress get some rest for this ankle. It will also keep him home for awhile since the Jets will not travel again after Monday’s game until the third week of the regular season.
Burress, the Jets doctors and Rex Ryan a;; feel confident Plaxico Burress will be ready by the season opener.
So first it was Kevin Boss who mysteriously disappeared from the Giants Roster to the Raiders for more money and now Steve Smith has done the same ( not the same team since he is going to the Eagles ). This just shows that the Giants do not seem to be able and compte with other teams in terms of money.
So what do the Giants lose ?: They lose a great part of Eli Manning’s core of receivers. Yes it is true he was coming off injury, but he still is young and was a great part of the receiving game for the Giants.
So what do the Eagles gain ? : By signing Steve Smith, they now have a receiver who would be a big threat on their side now especially when they play the Giants. They also put another piece of their puzzle together with another big signing and have been hands down the busiest off-season team in the NFL.
By no means can anyone count the Giants out without even playing a game, but if any team has been beaten up more by trades, injuries, and Free-Agent losses please tell me because I do not see a team that is worst shape at the moment. It does not look good for the Giants and their fans.
