While it’s not official yet, barring Diontae Johnson fumbling the ball 19 times tonight, Eric Vozzola will be your 2021 champion. He leads Jeff 1,800-1,226. With Johnson left to play, Eric has a shot at the all-time title game scoring record of 2,011 (held by Burrier). However, before we brag on Eric, let’s hit on…
#1 Two Headed Russian Machine vs #8 This is the Year 2021 RECORD Rob M: 10-4 Eric: 6-8 2021 SCORING Rob M: 1453 PPG (3rd) Eric: 1,358 (8th) 2021 BREAKDOWN Rob M: 94-60 (8-6 vs Colby) Eric: 69-85 CAREER PLAYOFF RECORD ROB M – Overall, Masterson is just 5-14 in the postseason, often struggling to…
FULL LIST HERE. FIRST-TEAM ALL-ROBIO QB – Josh Allen (Colby) – 363 PPG Colby went off-script this year, using his first two picks on a tight end and a quarterback. Both worked out well. Unfortunately, nothing else worked at all. Anyhow, with Allen, who beat out Tom Brady by 74 fantasy points, this is the…
Thanks to Josh Allen, the league does not have to suffer through another Robio Championship write up about myself. Thanks to the Bills quarterback treating the Patriots defense like a high school JV cheerleading squad, Jeff Greenblatt earns his first ever Robioland Football Title. He had produced two baseball championships. THE GAME Led by my…
Based on career results, we couldn’t have a more mismatched title game. I have five league championships. Jeff has five total playoff victories. I’ve been to the title game eight times. Jeff has been there once. I have 179 career victories. Jeff has 83 career wins. I have five scoring crowns and four top seeds.…
We couldn’t have two different beasts in our two semifinals matchups. On one side of the bracket, we have Calderon and Robio. Combined we have 42 career playoff wins, including 13 in the semifinals and seven overall titles. On the other side of the bracket, we have Jeff and Burrier, who don’t really fit into…
We began the year with a trio of unbeaten teams in Jeff, Michael and Griff. The latter faded fast and hard, joining both Masterson and Neatock as hopeless wonders without the wonder. Michael eventually lost, but stopped the bleeding rather quickly, while Jeff suddenly found winning tough to come by as we headed down the…
Welcome to the 2020 All-Robio Award Ceremony. Let’s not waste any time with unwanted words. Below are the first, second and third teams for this season. First-Team All-Robio QB – Patrick Mahomes (Colby) I’ve already hit on all his highlights during the MVP pitch, but the highlights are, nearly 4,000 yards, 33 scores and a…
First Half Big Daddy The Dick-Taters (6-1): It’s a little scary how much Calderon has dominate the last couple of years. He’s coming off a 12-1 regular season. He’s on pace to repeat that, having won 20 of his last 22 and has appeared in the last two title games. This season, the fantasy gods…
Is it me or does it seem like there have not been any great free agent pick ups? No game-saving signees? Well, we haven’t had the season-changing free agents yet, there have been plenty of good gets. QB – Justin Herbert (Jeff) Picked in up in week five for just $4, Herbert is chasing rookie…
Calderon leads the league with five All-Robio players, including a pair of first teamers. Jeff is runner up with four total, but he’s two first-team players are a RB and WR, while one of Rich’s is a kicker. Eric isn’t too far behind with three total All-Robio players. Griff, Michael and myself are the only…
Welcome to another exclusive Robio Murray list, that will surely provide five to ten minutes of entertainment, depending on your reading skills. Today, I offer you a history of the first overall pick. Let’s get the ball rolling with a few fun facts. In the league’s first year, I picked my name out of a…
Your Weekly All-Robio Team A week after going all-bench, Watson goes first-team for Burrier. The dude has been on fire. Speaking of heating up, Henry goes back-to-back, while Gibson arrives for the first time, although that performance probably says more about the Dallas D. No question Hill belongs on the list, as it’s his third…
As my wife will tell you, I’m a little rough out of the gate, but a strong finisher. Others are just the opposite. Here is a list of those opposites, the best starters in league history and how they finished up. As you will see, starting hot has been pretty meaningless if mugs are what…
We talked about the best starts in league history, so now let’s go with the league’s worst starts in league history. A total of 41 teams have began a season 0-3 or worse. The worst of the worst was me. My 2009 team was the only team to start a season with eight straight defeats.…
Predictions, they are the cornerstone of a great commissioner. Sadly, predictions are sort of like a turd flavored, penis shaped lollipop…a good idea, but oh so wrong. My point…well, just see below. You will find all my preseason championship predictions, how they fared, plus who was the actual champion and where did I have them…
2020, a year that will truly live in infamy. Thus, it’s only fitting that we have a title game that best represents the times were are liven’. Past preseason rankings have been hit-or-miss. Last year, I had Calderon at #1 and he did finish #1 in the regular season. So there’s that. 2020 PRESEASON…
The cap as always is $100. If you go over the cap during the draft, don’t sweat it. You just need to get under the cap by the first game. If you go over during the season, you’ll be given one waiver wire to get back under. Don’t forget, any first time pickup needs the…
Keepers are due tomorrow night. Lots of tough decisions to be made. However, let’s take a look back at each person’s greatest keeper (in no particular order). ROBIO MURRAY MARSHAWN LYNCH, 2011-2013 Oddly, despite my success, I haven’t really produced a lot of great keepers. Maybe I’m bad at it. Maybe I draft so well,…
Not everyone has won a championship. But everyone has had a team that probably should have. I present to you, each person’s greatest team to NOT win a championship. And yes, I’ll rank those too. #1 Rich Calderon – 2019 Season Based on career rankings, Rich’s 2019 is the 8th greatest season ever produced in…
As always, CBS randomly selects who will play who during the upcoming season. As we all know, each team will face two foes twice, creating an unbalanced schedule. That is the life we live, because this isn’t communist Russia. So, what do we have… WEEK ONE & TWELVE ROBIO v ERIC Eric and I have…
Welcome back, my fantasy football colleagues. Sadly, we decided to cancel the 2020 Robioland Fantasy Baseball season. However, as of now, there will be a 2020 NFL season, which means we will most likely be having a 2020 fantasy football season. We’ll save the draft talk for later, as I want to hold the draft as…
[supsystic-tables id=34]
It’s official..without question, my 2019 is the greatest season this league has ever seen and ended in the only fitting way possible, a championship. Yet, before I heap a ton of praise upon myself, let’s recap the game and let’s not forget the final to fall. THE GAME In the end, the game wasn’t even…
I began my postseason predictions with a simple question…could anyone prevent a Rich Calderon vs Robio Murray finals. That question has been answered…nope. This is a good thing, because what better way to end a season other than having the two best teams facing off for the title? Of course, we’ve had 1s vs 2s…
When the season began, Rich Calderon was going to be the champion. It was a forgone conclusion, thanks to a trio of great keepers and two of the top 13 picks in the draft. With a record tying 12-1 record in the regular season, he certainly had the look of a team that fulfilled his…
Welcome to the 2019 All-Robio Report, where we have collected three teams worth of All-Robio players. Of the 18 QB-RB-WR-TEs on these lists, 12 are showing up for the first time ever. Heck, seven of the nine 1st-team players are not only earning their first 1st-team, but earning their first All-Robio anything. Calderon leads the…
As we head into week twelve, I think we can finally look back and see if these preseason keeper rankings were worth the paper they were not written on. It’s also a good time to see if there were any better keeper options for each team to keep. For some, the answer is yes. For…
Busts…they’re beautiful on women, but terrible for a fantasy team. Of course, perhaps they’re not such a tragedy since two teams that are currently a combined 13-1 have four players on the 1st-team All-Bust squad. FIRST TEAM ALL-BUST QB – Baker Mayfield (Rich B) He was expected to be the centerpiece of a resurgent Browns/Burrier’s…
Through seven weeks, it shouldn’t shock many that Calderon has three All-Robio players, while I have four. It makes sense, since he and I are first and second in scoring. However, we do not lead the league in All-Robio players. That would be Masterson, who has five total. He has two in the 1st, two…
Unfortunately, simply going back in time and see who scored the most is not how we figure out which running back had the greatest seasons ever. Fact is, we’ve made changes over the year. Until 2005, we played 14 regular season games. In 2014, we adjusted our scoring system to bring down quarterback and DST…
It’s time to recap what I had to say to you subjects week to week. WEEK ONE COLBY (L) ROBIO (W) 1275.0 – 1656.0 MATT (W) BOB (L) 1708.0 – 1229.0 ERIC (L) RICH C (W) 1202.0 – 1609.0 JEFF (L) ROB M (W) 1695.0 – 1897.0 MICHAEL (W) GRIFF (L) 1724.0 – 1074.0 DON…
We talked about the best starts in league history, so now let’s go with the league’s worst starts in league history. Oddly enough, despite being the team in the league with the most wins, my name appears often on this list, along with Eric. Griff and I have been to over half the title games,…
As my wife will tell you, I’m a little rough out of the gate, but a strong finisher. Others are just the opposite. Here is a list of those opposites, the best starters in league history and how they finished up. As you will see, starting hot has been pretty meaningless if mugs are what…
ALL-ROBIO TEAM Lamar has knocked McCaffrey off the top spot for League MVP, right? He’s been the top quarterback in half the games he played this year. Both Fournette and Henry show up for a second time, but Henry’s now done it twice in the last three weeks. Bob lands two first-team players this week,…
This post isn’t really a prediction. I can’t foresee injuries, adds and drops. I have no clue who Bob will get to give-up his best player for an injured running back. I can’t say for certain which superstar I’ll sent to Colby for a bucket of peanuts and a signed head shot of Tucker. Instead,…
Here are you first, second and third team preseason All-Robio selections. I tried not to pick all the obvious favors, although you’ll see plenty of familiar names. I have a three-way tie for most. Myself, Michael and Matt each have four on this list, although only the latter has a first-team player. Calderon and Matt…
The first round pick…for some, it’s the start of something beautiful. For others, it’s the beginning of the end. That first round pick sets the tone for the season and if you fuck it up, you, like a long actress hoping to land a part in Bob’s movie, could be fucked. The reality is, when…
Twenty seasons of Robioland Fantasy Football are in the books. 277 quarterbacks have produced a fantasy point in that time. Based solely on stats produced, both Drew Brees and Tom Brady will pass Peyton Manning and his 64,387 total fantasy points scored. They are the three kings of fantasy football at the quarterback position. Yet, like…
The championship game…where greatness goes to die. Or so it seems. Oddly enough, our title games have not always turned into the battles between two great squads. More often than not, it’s been a blow out. In total, 12 of the 40 teams that have competed in the finals has broken 1,500 points in the…
Below is a chart. That chart tells us all the important accomplishments by pick. What did we learn? We learned that it’s good to pick first. Of course, we knew that already. The top pick in the draft has made it to the postseason in 18 of the 20 seasons. The first overall pick has…
Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them…this is the story of Bob Castrone. The year 2005 was a troubling time. Hurricane Katrina struck Louisiana and flooded 80% of the city of New Orleans and their only hope was a former horse trainer named, Brownie. George W. Bush would…
[table id=715 /]
While the top spot is as clear as crystal, the top two spots really came down to three folks: Griff, Calderon and Matt. Each has a good argument to be one spot behind Bob, but in the end, the tiebreaker will always been a larger collection of mugs. Through 11 seasons in this league, Neatock…
There was a more innocent time in this league. A time when Calderon was this cute little team that never managed to win any championships. A squad that made losing as a 2-seed in the quarterfinals their own thing (2008, 2010 and 2012). Yet, that team is no more. Instead, Calderon has become one of…
One of the weirdest stats to come out of the first two decades of Robioland football has been the one that says, if you dominate the semifinals, you’ll more than likely loss the title game. However, this has been proven less true lately. After I won it all in 1999, scoring the most in both…
It’s been a strange three years for Griff, who for the first time in his 20-year career in Robioland, has produced three straight losing seasons; two of which kept him from the postseason party. Perhaps he can’t win without Molly. Anyhow, while it’s not a Robio-style fall from grace, it’s certainly been a drop for one…
My career in this league can be summed up in three acts. In act one, I dominated the beginning. In the league’s first four seasons, I produced 48 wins, won four straight division titles, brought home a top seed, a scoring crown and a stunning 10-1 record in the postseason, which included three championships. Then…
Colby Hall is basically Rob Masterson, but with a least some accomplishments. With no more Molly, these two continue to battle for the “best team to never win a championship” title. Masterson has been a more consistent winner lately (with his eight straight winning seasons), while Colby has missed the playoffs twice in the last…
Rob’s career in Robioland consists of two halves. The first nine years in this league were pretty awful. He missed the playoffs in four of those first nine seasons, finishing above .500 just once. It was brutal, as Rob battled with Eric for king of the basement. However, things finally took a turn in the…
