Fantasy Football and Appetite for Destruction

September 4th, 2007 · No Comments

So this is my favorite draft ever and GNR’s classic Appetite for Destruction might be my favorite album ever. It is top to bottom solid with a few of the deeper cuts you could even view as “sleepers”. Time will tell on my draft but we already know this album is rad so hopefully Spud McKenzie’s Party Animals do it justice… 

  1. Welcome To The Jungle-With the first pick I took Joseph Addai. He has had one season that got everyone really excited about this guy but still kind of unproven. It is kind of like hearing the Hollywood Rose demos and hearing promise and then the opening shred of this anthem…hopefully Addai pans out half as well.
  1. It’s So Easy-Kinda sleazy and not really one of the better cuts but some classic lines. Well lets hope the Raiders D hits you and you fall down…suh!
  1. Nightrain-Maybe the best song on the record and easily my favorite. The crash and burn part reminds me of Marques Colston who sadly I think is a flash in the pan. I think he is on the nightrain. I think he loves that stuff. I am not sure if he can get enough…
  1. Out Ta Get Me-I don’t think Vick is innocent and I would not advise anyone to suck him as he has the shanks. I do think Vick’s troubles (and the fact that Dunn is 45) will help my man Jerious Norwood. Take that one to heart…
  1. Mr. Brownstone-Again…under-appreciated along side the sexier picks so this one has to go to my man Marc Bulger. He puts up numbers just south of Manning, Palmer, Brady but does not get the run. Well on Sundays I wont get up on time but ill be watching Bulger put up huge numbers and I’ll be sipping a drink and feeling fine.

 

  1. Paradise City-Crazy coked out song reminds me of a crazy coked out city and their drugged up D. I grabbed the Chargers D in hopes that they would eat more horse roids and do more cool dances when they hurt people.

 

 

  1. My Michelle-Sleeper jam for a sleeper pick. I grabbed Selvin Young who is somewhere on the Broncos RB depth chart but Shannahan might decide he wants to play QB in week 1 so who knows. You never can tell…

 

  1. Think About You-I kind of hate this song and I am only happy when it comes on if I have been subjected to a flurry of sweet Nickelback songs, songs about loving a bar, or maybe something from that He/She Fergie . That is kind of how I feel about Braylon Edwards.

 

  1. Sweet Child O’ Mine-Ahh the power ballad…you had to hear that record and know it was a hit. This is basically the same as Adam Vinateri as I am 100% sure what I am getting here.

 

  1. You’re Crazy-The most punk song on the record goes to the most punk player on my team and that is Chris Cooley. The dude has a white guy afro and I hope is not in the NFL’s substance abuse program. He also admitted to having six fantasy teams. Even as I sit here writing a blog comparing my fantasy football team to GNR I think that is crazy.

 

  1. Anything Goes- I don’t love this song and I certainly did not love this pick. Cadillac Williams could be great again or could suck. Anything goes I guess…

 

 

  1. Rocket Queen-I absolutely love this song and I absolutely love these two picks. I grabbed both Brandon Marshall and Patrick Crayton towards the end of my draft. These guys are both young WRs in systems that are aging but have gunslinger QBs.
