It’s another Friday and it’s time for another Pick It and Stick It update.  This weekend we have a couple of intriguing match ups and some obvious picks as well.  The picks were all done and set way back Wednesday for the Purple Yeti.  Let’s hope everyone else remembered.  I guess that’s the ‘Stick It’ portion of the fantasy league.   Some of you may be wondering wht the ‘Spread’ portion of the table means.  The ‘Spread’ is how many points the favored team must win by to get a win.  This helps out immensely when a sure blow out is about to happen.  This also helps out the folks in Vegas to justify booking those kind of lopsided match ups.  So without further ado, here’s this week’s pick set:

The year of Kansas State wasn’t so much of a year as it was an eternity.  There were mediocre hopes going into the season, despair running through the season, mania during the end of the season and into the offseason, then back to a numbed out mediocre hope of building a solid team.  There are still burn marks on my belly from the selt belt holding me in from the ride the Wildcats took me on in the last year.  Right now, they are known as the Mildcats.  They brought back an old legend to patch up the nuclear meltdown and now are looking to rebuild.  Let’s take a look and see how they will stack up coming into the 2009 season.
