Kelder does have a first name but only his Mom uses it. He's been playing fantasy sports since before the internet had sites to do it. Not a member of any important organization but he thinks he's super funny! When not consuming baseball, he enjoys church coffee and food in larger quantities than his doctor would like.

Three game slate last night… I watched the TNT game; Sixers vs. Nuggets, and was highly entertained. The Nuggets continue to have a very stable rotation and there’s not really any takeaways unless someone gets hurt. Nobody got hurt. Same with the Sixers. Just sit back and enjoy Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid go head-to-head, […]

Last night, with the wind howling and sheets of rain falling outside, I sat to watch the Tuesday night slate of NBA games in preparation for this very article. I had ideas, a notepad handy, a keen eye for fantasy talent on the ready, and all set for business. Then the power went out. What […]

Diapers. Tires. NBA in January. What do they all have in common? Blowouts. And they happen when you least expect it. Not to complain as I know all of you reading are jealous of the glory filled life of a fantasy writer. But those games are super hard to get a takeaways from. Oh well. […]

One player per game to highlight in a 9 game set. That’s nine guys! I’ll try to make it relevant to your team and highlight possible pickups. So, obviously Andre Drummond is the guy to run to get. The starter got kicked in the groin and is missing time with an adductor contusion. Drummond came […]

Five game night across the league, let’s get it! Lakers/Mavericks I just love my guy Dereck Lively. He’s a really good real-life rookie and fits what the Mavs want to do on offense. 8 points, 8 rebounds, 2 blocks and steals, and is getting better and better. I really respect Luca Doncic tattoo game. I […]

I’ve had a lot of success in my regular home leagues. This success has not followed me into my first foray in a higher-level league. Like, wow. This is so bad, 10th out of 12 in my group. I’m embarrassed and going to publicly figure out who I took, why I did it, and why […]

Greetings from November Madness, AKA the NBA final play in tournament pool night! Now that I read it, November Madness doesn’t work. No alliteration. There were a few exciting games, though. Boston over Chicago This, however, was not one of the exciting games. Wow is Chicago bad. Like, they gave up a putback dunk to […]

Let’s go it be the Tuesday recap! I’m not really offended, just talking about this first game: Holy Offense: Pacers over Hawks The score was 157-152 and there was no overtime. Woulda been a fun game for Jeff Van Gundy to call, talk about lack of defense all game. Lots of fantasy stuffing here, obviously. […]

Please, blog, may I have some more?This was my original bit, one where I took an actual league and analyzed a bit who was picked up and dropped then gave my opinion on it. Since I haven’t been fired yet, here we go! Real Life Pickups From a Real League Cam Reddish: I actually picked him up in two 12 team […]

Last night had two unfortunate injuries. Wendell Carter Jr. broke a finger, and Devin Vassell broke his groin. My advice is to try to look beyond “player B will replace player A” because that isn’t always a swap. Like Mo Wagner will probably start in Orlando making Ma and Pa Wagner happy to see their […]

Halloween was last night and we live in quite possibly the best area in the US for the candy gaining activities. My town was founded in 1705. Blackbeard made his mainland home here. There’s a graveyard that dates back to 1734. Truly cool and spooky stuff.
Unfortunately, the flu, like the actual literal flu, struck the Kelder household and we were unable to join any festivities this year. With two people actively sick and me fighting off a scratchy throat and achy knees which I always have anyway, sat home. Now notice I’m not complaining about two days off of work watching Full House, Ninja Warrior, and playing Mario Kart. I should probably also mention that I fell asleep on the couch during the Knicks-Cavs game, so I’m purely box score watching instead of my report from watching TNT Tuesdays.
Here’s what happened fantasy wise last night:
