Okay, so it's time for Benevolent Banks' (Best name I could come up with...) weekly predictions... If you're the winner for the week... rejoice.. it means you didn't play me... if you're the loser... sucks to be you... At least you still have a job...
Week 5, we'll go game by game. Winners are in bold. Of course, MY game comes first..
1) Da Home Wreckers vs. Phace Phull of Philly
I gotta admit, GREAT NAME for a team. Especially cuz we're talkin about Kamal. Unfortunately, I'm seeing a surprise win for Phace Phull this week. Peyton Manning is coming off the bye and although he's looked slightly genriatric in the last couple of weeks, Houston is always good for making an Offense look like champions. Watch out though. Teams normally run on Houston, which might mean slightly lower stats for Manning. Also gotta watch out for Greg Jennings. Who's throwing him the ball? Until a receiver can throw the ball to himself, I'm pretty sure Jennings might let you down this week too. Phace Phull is fielding this year's new Manning in Jay Cutler, a VERY strong RB duo in Peterson and Matt Forte. Although his receivers are weak, who needs receivers when you have the GIANTS DEFENSE?? 400 points for the Giants!!!!
2) Hardworkbeinthisgood vs. Smash and Grab
I gotta admit. I'm a little salty with Hardwork since he was my first loss, but I'm gonna be unbiased in this one. There's no surprise with the winner here. It's Hardwork by a landslide. Smash and Grab is starting Gus Ferotte. Your running back is Willis McGahee, who got kicked in the chest last week. Maybe Hardwork will spot him 20 points to make this a match. By the way, Eagles have the #1 D in the league... 4 points for Clinton Portis is a SERIOUS stretch. Enough said.
3) Broad Street Bullies vs. Cdubb's Crushers
Whoa... who sees a winning streak for Glenn's squad? Same guy that lost Tom Brady and was about to give up is about to absolutely BRUTALIZE Colin's squad this week. Colin!!! Go get a running back!! Believe me, Chester Taylor CANNOT save you... Let's hope Tony Romo doesn't give away another game, cuz that's Colin's only chance.
4) Don't Call It a Comeback vs. You just Lost One
Will Westbrook play this week? If not, Chris made a trade that'll cost him a win this week. You went from starting Donovan McNabb to Jon Kitna, sack machine. You're lucky that Alan has some REALLY bad running backs on his squad. Ronnie Brown might be the GREATEST one week wonder the league has ever seen. Last week you say "Dammit, I shoulda played him!!" After this week you'll say, "Why did I even draft him?" You'll see... You heard it here first!!!
5) Stamford Stomp vs. Untitled
Two teams that have had tough schedules so far, one with the ONLY tie I've ever seen in Fantasy football!! Not sure what I can say here. One team is starting Matt Cassel at QB.. the other has Trent Edwards against a tough Arizona D when it's at home. Can I just turn the channel?
6) The Praetorian Guard vs. NYPD
Okay, scratch the previous prediction. These might be two of the worst teams in the league. At least one made a trade to upgrade at QB. MAKE TRADES!! Otherwise, you'll be forced to keep fielding bad teams. I never thought I'd see a team where the marquee players are the Defense. Let's hope this game ends quickly.

Interest perspective. Let's see if I can change it...
I think you should resign from your post after making numerous ass backward predictions...
Of course assed out is how your team looked after I hit them with the Wrecking ball.
Swing and a miss!
1 for 3 with three games still undecided, though only one of those looks like it might break your way. I think it is safe to say that no logical thought need be applied with anything in this league. You also need to curb any sibling rivalries when making picks.
Probably best that you not try this again.
Benevolent Banks has been pulled off the air until further notice ladies and gentlemen..
now back to your regularly scheduled program.
If I'm up to 8-0 after the next few weeks, can everyone just pay me the money so they can save the embarrassment?
There you go again Kamal, calling thing before they are over. You realize that if A. Peterson runs for 100 and a TD and Lance Moore catches for 100 and a TD, an extremely likely scenario with these 2 defenses, you lose this week?
Not trying to sway things one way or the other, just making you aware of the facts.
Sheldon - Adrian Peterson will have to run for 2 TD's and Lance Moore will have have to have over 100 yards and a TD as well...
I'll simply stop talking when someone actually defeats me.... until then I'll remain the tongue of terrifying fury.
Hmmm.. tough calls this week. Especially since I lost, it's even harder to swallow. I'll take Kamal's advice and hangup the tarot cards, at least till I get a win. Time to try and make some trades.
I guess I will step in as a replacement. HAve to take a look at the matchups when they come up though.
you had a good run James....well, not really but, we weren't expecting much either.
Excuse me... Wonderbread should be the last person to make predictions after his team was decapitated by Alan's squad so that doesnt qualify him to make any informed decisions.
I think it's my turn to take a stab at being the SWAMI since I've been talking shit since Week 2 and have an undefeated record to show for it.
