Alright! Hold up! Pump the brakes! Week 3?!? Didn’t we just have our draft a few days ago?!?! Hard to believe that we are already 3 weeks in! Time flies, when you’re having fun…this is a very true statement!
Well fellas, week 3 and yet another Top Dog! This week, we crown Gregg! Congrats man!!
Alright, let’s get down to it!
As usual, let’s start with our Top Dog match up! Greg the leg, I mean, Gregg with two “g’s” that looks like his leg….pulled out a victory! And not only a victory, but mustered up a Top Dog! After going 0-2, he now has his first W of the season and is ready to turn his team around! On the flip side, he played the other team that was 0-2 and forced him to go 0-3. What’s even more interesting, is the fact that the highest scoring team defeated the lowest scoring team of the week!! Come on Jake! Where’s this sad sack of shit, you call a team?!?! To be fair, Jake hasn’t been able to get anything going as far as a QB goes from the get go! Started out with Trey Lance, lost him, ended up with Justin Fields, and something tells me, he’ll be dropping him as well! As for Gregg…Derrick Henry finally decided to show up and give him some points he drafted him for! Is he officially back? We will see!!!
Greg’s highest and lowest scoring starter – Marquise Brown – 30
Greg Joseph – 2
Jake’s highest and lowest scoring starter – Courtland Sutton – 17.70
Darrell Henderson – 1.70
Next up! Our second highest scoring matchup…none other than Kyle, aka, the Superman! The Messiah himself…Jesus Christ! Jesus continues to thrive and once again took home his second victory in a row! His opponent, Josh, put up a good fight, but just wanted enough, as his Eagles keeping pounding, his team did not! This one was truly a battle of the QBs, as Kyle’s, Josh Allen, put up 30.70 points to Josh’s, Jalen Hurts, put up 33.60! But, from there, it was Jesus flexing his big baller TE, Mark Andrews!!
Kyle’s highest and lowest scoring starter – Josh Allen – 30.70
Brandin Cooks – 4.20
Josh’s highest and lowest scoring starter – Jalen Hurts – 33.69
David Montgomery – 1.10
Next up! Paff vs The Bro In Law! I’ll be honest, I didn’t see this one coming. I thought for sure that Drew was going to take me this week, but instead, his team decided to put up, somewhat of a dud. Though he has a solid team, only his WRs showed up to play! As for me, well, all but Aaron Jones saw double digits, which was enough to get me the third highest scoring team this week! I can only hope this is the new trend! Lol!
Drew’s highest and lowest scoring starter – Amari Cooper – 25.10
Younghoe Koo – 4
Steve’s highest and lowest scoring starter –
Derek Carr – 23.82
Tie between Rams Defense and Chris Boswell – 4
Next up! The Baby Don does it again! But this time, with a little help from the Paff Daddy himself! That’s right, Connor had Herbert in his lineup, and with him being out on a cruises ship, put me in control! And well, the rest is history! You’re welcome sir, hope you enjoy that 3-0! Robert, his opponent, on the other hand, put up the second lowest score on the board. What’s worse is, had I left Herbert in, Connor would have still won, but it, would have only been by 10 points!! Robert…Roberto…Bob…Bobster…Bobert….1-2? Seems a little off for you. Let’s get it in gear and turn it around next week, shall we?
Connor’s highest and lowest scoring starter – Joe Burrow – 29
Bills Def – 6
Robert’s highest and lowest scoring starter – CeeDee Lamb – 22.70
Brandon McManus – 4
Last but not least…the middle of the pack performers! And the closest matchup between each other! Cheating Brother #2 and Cheating Brother #4 went head to head, as even number cheating brothers do!! Brad, pulled out a sneaky one on Sam with a 127.68 to 126.42 win! This one was interesting, as it all came down to the Defenses for these guys! Brad pulled out the win with the 49ers Def putting up 11 points, while Sam wouldn’t have lost had his Chargers Def done something…anything…other than putting up negative 7 points! Ouch! I feel your pain bud, I too lost because of the dang chargers not showing up in any way this week, in a different league. But, such is life right? We get knocked down, we get back up again! Speaking of which…if you asked a guy with Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase in his lineup, who his highest scoring player was? Surly one of them, right? Nope, as a matter fact, Justin Jefferson was one of his lowest scoring players, barely outscoring the kicker Bass.
Brad’s highest and lowest scoring starter – Cordarrelle Patterson – 24.30
Tyler Bass – 4
Sam’s highest and lowest scoring starter –
Lamar Jackson – 49.42
Chargers Def – -7

BBY953 2022 Fantasy Football Draft
This is the Godfather league. The start of it all. In 2010, Steve and Brad were working together at Best Buy, store 953, in Asheville, NC. There was interest across the store in getting a fantasy football league started, so Steve took it upon himself to create the league, and organize a draft. Our first 4 years of drafting, took place at Hickory Tavern (remember, if you’re not doing it in person, you’re doing it wrong). They were gracious hosts, always giving us a great location to put up a draft board, and making sure the group was always taken care of with food and drinks.
Since those early years, the group has changed over time. What started off as a league full of Best Buy 953 employees (hence the BBY953 league name), there are now only 4 of us left that have that original link. However, we’ve now built a solid foundation. And a brotherhood. Our current 10 have been together for coming up on 6 years (with the addition of one new person, as we lost one a couple years back due to political talk….Again, go read the first blog post in The Commissioner’s Corner).
This past years draft took place at Timber, an Axe Throwing facility in Hendersonville, NC. This was an absolute blast! They were fantastic hosts, had everything ready to go when we got there. Their instructions and guidance were more than we could have asked for.
The best part was, no one in our league was an expert. We took advantage of that and setup a points bracket that led to a tournament. The tournament let us figure out our draft order for 2023’s draft (always get creative…drawing names each year can get so dull).
If this sounds like what you’ve been looking for, contact us today so we can get started on planning your next Fantasy Football Draft before its too late!
Not only will they put on an incredible event, they're also very knowledgeable on league settings, and have great ideas on how to enhance a league. We now have incentive to not finish last 🙂
— Connor
Live drafting with everyone was hands down the best experience I've ever had. You went above and beyond any of our expectations!
— Robert
Our third year in a row now using The Draft Xperience for our dynasty league. Each year tops the last. Thank you guys for making the best day of the year even better!
