Week 8 was a rough one, so grab a beer and try not to cry over it while you drop all of the players that are done for the year. This week, we're joined on the podcast by our buddy Mike Mocerino to share some wisdom and bombers. We went over all of the injuries from Week 8, and boy were there a lot of them. We also did our own weekly draft - last week I won, so Dave and I are now 1-1. I'm a bit excited for the stakes we're playing for this week...no pun intended.

Week 7 is in the books and it's time to start winning now if you have plans on making it to the playoffs. We started off by laying out the injuries from last week, including Arian Foster, Josh McCown and Joseph Randle. We went over the waiver pickups that you need this week, and check out Troy's article for a breakdown of all the guys to pick up. We looked at some more trends this week and talked about the ones we looked at a few weeks ago. After reconciling our bets, we placed some new ones, as is tradition. Finally, we checked out a few players under the radar.

Week 7 brings us past the tipping point of the regular fantasy football season for most leagues. Will your team perform well enough to make the playoffs? It all hinges on their performance in the next several weeks. We know who a lot of players are now, but there are some who still remain a mystery. Eddie Lacy? Are you out there, Eddie Lacy? Will Peyton Manning have a resurgence before the end of the year, or will his career end as a below average quarterback with an outstanding defense? Listen to the podcast to hear our takes on these situations and more.

Fantasy Football Podcast
The Fantasy Finish Line Podcast has been chugging along for a few years now, still operating with its original hosts - David Biggs and Jason Evans. This 45-60 minute weekly program airs leading up to and during the NFL regular season (when fantasy happens) with some special broadcasts throughout the year. Whether you need to dish on draft strategy before the season starts or just need some advice on who to pick up from the waiver wire, our fantasy football show will help you through the tough times and onto the trophy!
Retrospectical Podcast
The Universe is huge and we are small. Not much we can do about that. What we can do, however, is to try to make sense of all the things around us. Too many things are just taken for granted when instead we should be searching for deeper understanding and meaning. Or not. Either way, it is the goal of the Retrospectical Podcast to shed some light on topics that have more under the surface than you may be aware of. From the history and evolution of television to drones and alternative currencies, we'll explore a wide-range of topics and surely get off on some wacky tangents but ultimately be better off for it. That's the idea, anyway!
TV Soup Podcast
The hosts of the TV Soup Podcast, Jason Evans and David Biggs, have both long been immersed in media and technology but their hopeless addiction to modern television series has been a somewhat recent development. With the advent of shows like Dexter, Breaking Bad, Sherlock and Game of Thrones, television has grown up quickly to the point where we would now rather be blowing through TV series than going out to a movie in most cases! We'll be jumping from one series to another, doing reviews and providing weekly commentary along the way on this 30-minute weekly broadcast.
