Week #1 Starts here

Don't forget the season starts for real on Thursday. Players on the Steelers and Titans will lock at gametime.
You will still be able to add/drop players until Sunday. The league transaction counters will be reset at 1PM ET Sunday. After that you only have 13 free add/drops before you are changed $1. So make all you transactions now.
Let's take a quick season preview. We have 10 teams this year in two divisions(Black n Blue & Body Bag). The draft distributed the talent fairly even. So it should be an interesting season. Double D you should be happy to know there is a tie breaker this year (total bench points).
Rando's Razors (RRAZ) vs Trooper OB's Method (OBM)
The only intra division matchup this week. This the line is Rando -5. So it's basically a pick-em. OB has Peyton Manning. Who we all know is cursed in the league. Rando is a little inexperienced at WR. It's not clear that DeSean Jackson can score on a regular basis and Percy Harvin's a rookie. Should be a close match-up.
Black & Blue Division
Romo's Raiders (RR) vs Capitol Road Pound Cakes (PC)
Pamela takes on the 2008 season champs. The early line has her pounding the Raiders by 19. She's got LT in Oakland and Reggie Bush at home against Detroit. Nice! RBs Westbrook and Jacobs for RR have some tough defenses this week. This one could be decided by the QB play. Green Bay's Rodgers for RR is in Chicago against Jay Cutler for Pamela.
Jonesville Terrapins (JT) vs Soul Sonic Force (SSF)
The quest for more than 3 wins in a season starts here for the Jonesville boys. The early line has them favored by 15. Their roster looks formidable. That is if you ignore the starters from the Kansas City Chiefs. But the SSF roster isn't scaring anyone either.
Body Bag Division
Double D's Flyin' Tigers (DFT) vs V Dub (Dub)
Okay Jesse we give up. What the frick is a V Dub. Double D may have Tom Brady, but his effectiveness is negated by two starters from Detroit. The Dub dude -10.
Brooklyn PitBulls (BPB) vs Open (in the) Slot (JD)
The dogs are a heavy favorite (-19), but this is projected to be the lowest scoring match-up of the week. The Slot's going with a rookie RB, because Pierre Thomas is out this week. He could get a nice bump from the Warner to Fitzgerald QB/WR combo. Looking for an upset here.
