Hopefully Brockman can school The Guru too<\/figcaption><\/figure>Some people have all the luck. Well sort of… <\/p>\n

Deuce’s Brockman was lucky enough to be one of the first people to respond to an invitation to Guru subscribers to join a league with none other than The Guru himself, John Hansen, BUT proceeded to draft THE WORST team you have ever seen. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile Hansen’s first three picks will look very familiar to many. <\/p>\n

From “BrockmanBlitz”.<\/p>\n

I am glad he did not analyze my picks. I knew drinking before and during was a bad idea. I still cannot believe I took Andre Johnson over Larry Fitz.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Not to mention Jamaal Charles over Doug Martin… And Guru did call out Brockman for his round ten pick. BAAAHHH!! <\/p>\n

Analysis of the draft From The Guru<\/a> himself.<\/p>\n

10-Team NFFC Cutline Championship Draft Recap <\/p>\n

by John Hansen, Publisher <\/p>\n

Published, 8\/17\/13 <\/p>\n

I participated on Thursday night in a 26-round, 10-team draft for the NFFC Cutline Championship. This was against all FantasyGuru.com subscribers, so it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not an easy field for me. Not only do these people get all of our information, but they also know exactly what my Draft Plan is. Of course, that plan is flexible, and I didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t feel like I got hosed on as many picks as I did last year, when I did something similar with the NFFC and drafting against subscribers. <\/p>\n

This league is unique in that it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s very deep rosters (10 teams, 260 players drafted) and you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re only allowed three Waiver Wire moves all year. So I was a little more focused on durability and handcuffing my top players. I was also looking a little harder for viable stash-and-hope picks. <\/p>\n

This is a PPR league with all TDs worth 6 points. Otherwise, the scoring is pretty standard. <\/p>\n

I unfortunately don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t have the time to cover every pick, as I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m working on so many other things that are higher priorities, but I took some time to roll through this draft and offer some thoughts. <\/p>\n

ROUND PICK PLAYER POS TEAM<\/p>\n

1 1 Adrian Peterson RB Team paul<\/p>\n

1 2 Jamaal Charles RB BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

1 3 Doug Martin RB Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

1 4 Calvin Johnson WR San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

1 5 C.J. Spiller RB The Maestro<\/p>\n

1 6 Arian Foster RB Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

1 7 Ray Rice RB SlickRick23<\/p>\n

1 8 Trent Richardson RB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

1 9 Marshawn Lynch RB BobbyG<\/p>\n

1 10 LeSean McCoy RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: Felt fortunate to get McCoy at #10. This was done right when his second preseason game kicked off, and he probably would have gone higher after his stellar showing. Arian Foster at #6 was a value. <\/p>\n

2 1 A.J. Green WR Team Hansen<\/p>\n

2 2 Dez Bryant WR BobbyG<\/p>\n

2 3 Matt Forte RB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

2 4 Brandon Marshall WR SlickRick23<\/p>\n

2 5 Jimmy Graham TE Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

2 6 Demaryius Thomas WR The Maestro<\/p>\n

2 7 Julio Jones WR San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

2 8 Randall Cobb WR Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

2 9 Aaron Rodgers QB BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

2 10 Victor Cruz WR Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: Tough call here, but in a 10-team league and with 20 picks before my next pick, I felt the need to secure a stud WR. RB is pretty deep this year, so I felt the next to get one top wideout. <\/p>\n

3 1 Alfred Morris RB Team paul<\/p>\n

3 2 Andre Johnson WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

3 3 Larry Fitzgerald WR Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

3 4 Steven Jackson RB San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

3 5 Maurice Jones-Drew RB The Maestro<\/p>\n

3 6 Reggie Bush RB Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

3 7 Chris Johnson RB SlickRick23<\/p>\n

3 8 Darren Sproles RB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

3 9 Stevan Ridley RB BobbyG<\/p>\n

3 10 Drew Brees QB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: I do want to hold off on a QB, but with 6 points for all TDs and my #1 QB on the board with what can also be considered the 4th round, you kind of have to pull the trigger, especially in this format with Brees so durable. There were a lot of good values in this round, including Reggie Bush, Stevan Jackson, and Alfred Morris. <\/p>\n

4 1 Frank Gore RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

4 2 Peyton Manning QB BobbyG<\/p>\n

4 3 Roddy White WR Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

4 4 Dwayne Bowe WR SlickRick23<\/p>\n

4 5 Wes Welker WR Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

4 6 Cam Newton QB The Maestro<\/p>\n

4 7 Le’Veon Bell RB San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

4 8 Jason Witten TE Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

4 9 Vincent Jackson WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

4 10 Danny Amendola WR Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: I needed another RB, and it was a little early for some of the younger guys like Le\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Veon Bell and Lamar Miller, so I just took a reliable guy in Gore, who popped off a 50+ yard run last night. It wasn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t easy to pass on some of the other appealing options, but I need availability. But Gore looks appealing this year, given their receiver issues. <\/p>\n

5 1 Darren McFadden RB Team paul<\/p>\n

5 2 DeMarco Murray RB BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

5 3 David Wilson RB Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

5 4 Lamar Miller RB San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

5 5 Rob Gronkowski TE The Maestro<\/p>\n

5 6 Marques Colston WR Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

5 7 Shane Vereen RB SlickRick23<\/p>\n

5 8 Pierre Garcon WR Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

5 9 Reggie Wayne WR BobbyG<\/p>\n

5 10 Antonio Brown WR Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: Here\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s where I got pinched at WR, as I was hoping my guy Pierre Garcon, or at least Reggie Wayne. I had to \u00e2\u20ac\u0153settle\u00e2\u20ac\u009d on Brown, whom I do still love. That was pretty nice value for Lamar Miller in the 5th round. That\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a great spot for him. <\/p>\n

6 1 Daryl Richardson RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

6 2 Eddie Lacy RB BobbyG<\/p>\n

6 3 T.Y. Hilton WR Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

6 4 Ryan Mathews RB SlickRick23<\/p>\n

6 5 Montee Ball RB Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

6 6 Steve Smith WR The Maestro<\/p>\n

6 7 Vernon Davis TE San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

6 8 Ahmad Bradshaw RB Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

6 9 DeSean Jackson WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

6 10 Stevie Johnson WR Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: Knowing I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m going up against subscribers, I realize I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not going to get many great values, and I needed a RB. Especially since I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m not picking again for essentially two rounds, I had to get one. Ahmad Bradshaw and Eddie Lacy were very tempting, but Bradshaw\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s age concerned me, and I do still have some concerns about how reliable Lacy will be this year (although I do think he has a very good chance to be very productive). I went with Richardson, who I think will have clear value all year, and who also has some upside. For most, he should be drafted 1-2 rounds later for better value. <\/p>\n

7 1 Tavon Austin WR Team paul<\/p>\n

7 2 Tony Gonzalez TE BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

7 3 Giovani Bernard RB Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

7 4 Andrew Luck QB San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

7 5 Chris Givens WR The Maestro<\/p>\n

7 6 Ben Tate RB Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

7 7 Eric Decker WR SlickRick23<\/p>\n

7 8 Matthew Stafford QB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

7 9 James Jones WR BobbyG<\/p>\n

7 10 Hakeem Nicks WR Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m fairly thin at WR, so I could not pass on a possible value in Nicks. Yes, he has injury issues, but if he can stay on the field, this will be a great value. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a high-end player in a contract year, so I felt he was worth this risk. It would have been nice to get Reuben Randle, but that was not in the cards. This was too early for Tate. <\/p>\n

8 1 DeAngelo Williams RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

8 2 Mark Ingram RB BobbyG<\/p>\n

8 3 Anquan Boldin WR Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

8 4 Matt Ryan QB SlickRick23<\/p>\n

8 5 Jordy Nelson WR Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

8 6 Torrey Smith WR The Maestro<\/p>\n

8 7 Tom Brady QB San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

8 8 Mike Wallace WR Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

8 9 Chris Ivory RB BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

8 10 Josh Gordon WR Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: Still looking for solid RB depth, I like Williams in this spot. He has been a pain, but it looks like they will go more conventional this year, and he looked very good the evening this draft took place (I probably took him 15 minutes before he started getting carries). Good value here for Ryan, and I seriously considered Anquan Boldin. Josh Gordon could be a good value if he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s out of trouble. <\/p>\n

9 1 Jonathan Stewart RB Team paul<\/p>\n

9 2 Greg Jennings WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

9 3 Tony Romo QB Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

9 4 Golden Tate WR San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

9 5 BenJarvus Green-Ellis RB The Maestro<\/p>\n

9 6 Russell Wilson QB Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

9 7 Cecil Shorts WR SlickRick23<\/p>\n

9 8 Miles Austin WR Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

9 9 Kyle Rudolph TE BobbyG<\/p>\n

9 10 Jermichael Finley TE Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: In a smaller league, you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re looking for impact players, and I felt Finley was a worthy risk about 100 picks into the draft. He definitely has a chance to be very impactful, and his QB continues to heap praise on him this summer, most recently Friday 8\/16. I liked the Golden Tate pick here. <\/p>\n

10 1 Bryce Brown RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

10 2 Kendall Wright WR BobbyG<\/p>\n

10 3 Andre Brown RB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

10 4 Ronnie Hillman RB SlickRick23<\/p>\n

10 5 DeAndre Hopkins WR Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

10 6 LaMichael James RB The Maestro<\/p>\n

10 7 Emmanuel Sanders WR San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

10 8 Kenny Britt WR Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

10 9 Kenbrell Thompkins WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

10 10 Colin Kaepernick QB Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: I know he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still behind Chris Polk, who looked solid in the second preseason game (Brown sat out with a minor injury). But ultimately, I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m betting that the cream rises to the top, and Brown is more talented than Polk. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a McCoy handcuff (hopefully) and also a player who might be worth using in a pinch. This was way too high for Kenbrell Thompkins, who did nothing on 8\/16, the night after this draft. He could still surprise, for sure, but that\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still too early.<\/strong> Solid value here for Colin Kaepernick.<\/p>\n

11 1 Robert Griffin III QB Team paul<\/p>\n

11 2 Rashard Mendenhall RB BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

11 3 Cordarrelle Patterson WR Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

11 4 Lance Moore WR San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

11 5 Vick Ballard RB The Maestro<\/p>\n

11 6 Alshon Jeffery WR Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

11 7 Greg Olsen TE SlickRick23<\/p>\n

11 8 Fred Davis TE Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

11 9 Sidney Rice WR BobbyG<\/p>\n

11 10 Vincent Brown WR Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: The vibes are shaky in SD, but Brown continues to look like a player ready to emerge, and he should be the #1 WR for this team Week One. I wish things were better around him and that he was more durable, so he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s not a perfect breakout candidate. But he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still a good one, I believe. Lance Moore was a solid value I would have taken here. This was too early for Cordarrelle Patterson.<\/p>\n

12 1 Pierre Thomas RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

12 2 Danny Woodhead RB BobbyG<\/p>\n

12 3 Fred Jackson RB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

12 4 Bernard Pierce RB SlickRick23<\/p>\n

12 5 Mike Williams WR Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

12 6 Michael Bush RB The Maestro<\/p>\n

12 7 Jared Cook TE San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

12 8 Justin Blackmon WR Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

12 9 Michael Floyd WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

12 10 Rod Streater WR Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: Looking for a viable RB for depth that I could count on if needed, and Thomas fit the bill well. I considered Danny Woodhead, whom I do like, but I picked Thomas on the Saints, since there are shaky vibes with the Chargers. Jared Cook was a good pick here, and Mike Williams a value. <\/p>\n

13 1 Martellus Bennett TE Team paul<\/p>\n

13 2 Robert Woods WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

13 3 Brandon Myers TE Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

13 4 Rueben Randle WR San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

13 5 Coby Fleener TE The Maestro<\/p>\n

13 6 Bilal Powell RB Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

13 7 Eli Manning QB SlickRick23<\/p>\n

13 8 Jordan Cameron TE Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

13 9 Brian Hartline WR BobbyG<\/p>\n

13 10 Antonio Gates TE Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: When you take Finley as your #1 TE, you need another good option, and Gates was perfect. The vibes are shaky here, but Gates looked good in the second preseason game and it looks like he has another productive year in his legs. This was a little early for some players like Robert Woods and Bilal Powell. But it was not too early for Reuben Randle, Coby Fleener, and especially Jordan Cameron. <\/p>\n

14 1 Isaiah Pead RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

14 2 Brandon Pettigrew TE BobbyG<\/p>\n

14 3 Seattle DST DST Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

14 4 Ryan Broyles WR SlickRick23<\/p>\n

14 5 Sam Bradford QB Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

14 6 San Francisco DST DST The Maestro<\/p>\n

14 7 Denver DST DST San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

14 8 Chicago DST DST Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

14 9 Jay Cutler QB BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

14 10 Mohamed Sanu WR Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: The only reason I took Pead here (not that this is very high) is because I have Richardson. If he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s out or ineffective, Pead will get a major chance for the Rams. <\/p>\n

15 1 Denard Robinson RB Team paul<\/p>\n

15 2 Aaron Dobson WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

15 3 Owen Daniels TE Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

15 4 Jacquizz Rodgers RB San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

15 6 Houston DST DST Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

15 7 Cincinnati DST DST SlickRick23<\/p>\n

15 8 Tyler Eifert TE Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

15 9 Ace Sanders WR BobbyG<\/p>\n

15 10 New England DST DST Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: It\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s getting late, might as well get a defense that has a chance to be impactful, but I can\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t say I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m totally sold on NE defense given their potential problems on offense. This is a defense that thrives on turnovers, and it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s helpful when they have a great offense. Ace Sanders was a sneaky pick this late and Tyler Eifert was worth a shot. <\/p>\n

16 1 Joique Bell RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

16 2 Johnathan Franklin RB BobbyG<\/p>\n

16 3 Julian Edelman WR Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

16 6 Andy Dalton QB The Maestro<\/p>\n

16 7 Jonathan Dwyer RB San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

16 8 Roy Helu RB Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

16 9 Brandon LaFell WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

16 10 Dustin Keller TE Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: This is almost like a league where you draft and don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t touch the roster, with only 3 WW moves allowed, so I like Bell as a good stash-and-hope option. If Reggie Bush is out, Bell should get catches. <\/p>\n

17 1 Michael Vick QB Team paul<\/p>\n

17 2 Donnie Avery WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

17 3 Arizona DST DST Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

17 4 Knile Davis RB San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

17 7 Dwayne Allen TE SlickRick23<\/p>\n

17 8 Chris Ogbonnaya RB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

17 9 Michael Crabtree WR BobbyG<\/p>\n

17 10 Stepfan Taylor RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: This was a bit of a reach, but then again we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re talking the 17th round. I do think there\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a chance that Taylor is a factor here, given the injury issues with the two RBs ahead of him. Chris Ogbonnaya could catch some passes here at FB, but this was too early for him. Michael Crabtree actually made sense here given the deep roster. <\/p>\n

18 1 Carson Palmer QB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

18 2 Denarius Moore WR BobbyG<\/p>\n

18 3 Mikel Leshoure RB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

18 8 Percy Harvin WR Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

18 9 Green Bay DST DST BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

18 10 Andre Roberts WR Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: Brees is very durable, but with only 3 WW moves allowed, I had to get a good backup, and I think Palmer is. Mikel Leshoure, Percy Harvin, Denarius Moore, and Jeremy Kerley were worth a shot here. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m being told that Moore is taking things a little more seriously this year. Of course, the Raiders are a mess. <\/p>\n

19 1 Zach Sudfeld TE Team paul<\/p>\n

19 2 Rashad Jennings RB BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

19 6 Minnesota DST DST Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

19 7 EJ Manuel QB SlickRick23<\/p>\n

19 8 Matt Schaub QB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

19 9 Ryan Tannehill QB BobbyG<\/p>\n

19 10 Kendall Hunter RB Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: This pick was made mainly because I have Gore. The 49ers are taking things slowly with Hunter, but I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m told he will still be the #2 RB if healthy. I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m ready to move Zach Sudfeld up after watching their 8\/16 game today (8\/17). He had a nice 2-point conversion from Tom Brady in addition to scoring. I would not have taken E.J. Manuel over Ryan Tannehill, but both were good values here. <\/p>\n

20 1 Dexter McCluster WR Team Hansen<\/p>\n

20 2 Robert Turbin RB BobbyG<\/p>\n

20 8 Shonn Greene RB Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

20 9 LeGarrette Blount RB BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

20 10 Greg Zuerlein K Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: I\u00e2\u20ac\u2122m a little light at WR, and in McCluster I could get a 60-catch guy. <\/p>\n

21 10 Davone Bess WR Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: Still looking for catches, we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re told that the Browns are very pleased with Bess, who should also get 60 catches. <\/p>\n

22 8 Keenan Allen WR Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

22 9 Daniel Thomas RB BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

22 10 Ryan Williams RB Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: My guy Phil Dawson (who hit two 50+ yard FGs on 8\/16) was gone, so I settled on Gostkowski. Of course, he could go off this year given their issues at receiver, as it looks like they will still move the ball. <\/p>\n

23 8 Alex Smith QB Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

23 9 Joseph Randle RB BobbyG<\/p>\n

23 10 Benjamin Watson TE Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: I love Watson as a deep, deep sleeper. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s been on the field a lot this preseason, and he has upside if Jimmy Graham is out. He\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s my #3 TE, so I liked him even more in this league with deep roster and minimal WW opportunities. <\/p>\n

24 10 Latavius Murray RB Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: At this point, this is all about upside. Quick has been a disappointment, but he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s still ideally a starter here. If he shows he\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s worthy, which is a big question, he could still start. <\/p>\n

25 10 Brandon Lloyd WR Team Hansen<\/p>\n

Comments: Still looking for WR help, figured an unemployed Lloyd had about as much potential as the remaining WRs. Brandon Weeden was a steal here. <\/p>\n

26 1 Stephen Hill WR Team Hansen<\/p>\n

26 2 Alex Henery K BobbyG<\/p>\n

26 3 Steven Hauschka K Guru’s Guru<\/p>\n

26 4 Danario Alexander WR SlickRick23<\/p>\n

26 5 Marcedes Lewis TE Felonious Assault 1<\/p>\n

26 6 Armanti Edwards WR The Maestro<\/p>\n

26 7 Jon Baldwin WR San Carlos 4<\/p>\n

26 8 Markus Wheaton WR Sledgehammer<\/p>\n

26 9 Austin Collie WR BrockmanBlitz<\/p>\n

26 10 Andre Ellington RB Team paul<\/p>\n

Comments: At least Hill will start with the Jets, and he has talent. Markus Wheaton should have been my pick, though. I got lazy in the 26th round and didn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t seek him out.

Projected starting lineup (PPR, 6 points for all TDs):<\/p>\n

QB: Drew Brees<\/p>\n

RB: LeSean McCoy<\/p>\n

RB: Frank Gore<\/p>\n

WR: A.J. Green<\/p>\n

WR: Antonio Brown<\/p>\n

WR: Hakeem Nicks<\/p>\n

Flex: Daryl Richardson\/DeAngelo Williams<\/p>\n

TE: Jermichael Finley<\/p>\n

PK: Stephen Gostkowski<\/p>\n

DT: New England<\/p>\n

This squad may not be incredible, but it\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s a pretty good team with upside, and in this format I like my depth.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

What is it with Guru’s fetish for San Carlos 4? <\/p>\n

Anyone think Brockman has a shot?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"

Some people have all the luck. Well sort of… Deuce’s Brockman was lucky enough to be one of the first people to respond to an invitation to Guru subscribers to join a league with none other than The Guru himself, John Hansen, BUT proceeded to draft THE WORST team you have ever seen.
