Most Valuable Chief
Wednesday is Shortcuts-watching morning at Chez Rosenthal. I took at peak at Chiefs-Packers to get a preview of Priest Holmes heading into his starting role, and wasn't overly encouraged from what I saw, albeit from a small sample.
Tony Gonzalez stole the show in this game. In a constantly changing fantasy landscape, Gonzo never disappoints. He's currently the TE3 this season and is gaining fast on Antonio Gates. If he keeps it up, it will mark the eighth time in nine years Gonzalez has finished as a top-three tight end.
Despite a terrible offense around him, Gonzo has a shot to break some personal records. He's on pace for 104 catches, 1,230 yards, and eight scores. Fantasy Nation began to give up on Gonzalez after his two-score season in 2005, but that was largely a fluke. The receptions never left.
The Chiefs may have erred rewarding Larry Johnson with a big extension, but Gonzalez is living up to his. As always.

What's up with the all the fake replies from players? It was funny the first half dozen times, now it's just lame.

So I guess a response like this would be inappropriate.

Fargas! Fargas! Fargas! Fargas! Fargas! Fargas! Farrrrrrrrr gas!
That cheer was my: For the love of God I need to win a matchup for a change in my league or I am out of playoff contention but Thank God I was able to pick up Fargas to have at least someone with a favorable matchup this week for the Running Back position...Cheer.

Dave,
Are you still being a bad sport about this?
Just kidding. Even I agree that, like me, it's getting old.
Sincerely,
Shaun
