QB

Marcus Mariota- QB Ten- This game is going to be a SHOOTOUT no doubt. Mariota is absolutely dominating the fantasy-PPR leagues these past few weeks, and there's no reason to believe he will stop anytime soon. Against a 28th-QB-Defense in Indianapolis... Tag Mr. Mariota in at QB1 and let the points fly. (Draftkings: $6,700- Proj.: 21.0 PTS)


RB

DeMarco Murray- RB Ten- Averaging just under 24 points-a-game, Murray is easily the RB1 for my lineup this week. Indy sports a 24th-RB-Defense at the moment which bodes well for Murray fans. Complimented with Mariota under center, Murray is as big a threat receiving as he is attacking the ground. Look for #29 to put up some monster numbers this week in the starting lineups of both PPR & STD scoring leagues. (Draftkings: $8,200- Proj.: 23.4 PTS)

RB

Isaiah Crowell- RB Cle- You have got to let go of your fantasy pride this week and start this man!! The Steelers travel to Cleveland sporting a 31st-RB-Defense. All the while, the Browns have an awful attack through the air...this creates a match made in heaven for a Cleveland RB that will be pretty much the Browns' only offensive option. He's your RB2! (Draftkings: $3,900- Proj.: 13.6 PTS)


WR

Mike Evans- WR TB- I don't think this pick will require much explaining to be honest... Evans' is averaging right at 22 points-a-game coupled with an outstanding YAC percentage. The Kansas City secondary is one of the worst in the league no-less, and Evans' is primed and ready for a savage outing after last weeks minimal 10-point outing. The data speaks for itself... Winston literally refuses to throw to any of his other receivers... start Evans and you'll be starting the entire TB receiving corps all in one pick. (Draftkings: $8,100- Proj.: 21.8 PTS)

WR

Rishard Mathews- WR Ten- Tennessee's unsung hero has come out of the woodwork in recent weeks. Just like Mariota is showing no signs of stopping, Mathews' will continue the receiving prowess against a very subpar Indy secondary. As I said before... this game is going to be a shootout. This is the game that makes pairing teammates 100% necessary. (Draftkings: $5,100- Proj.: 12.0 PTS)

WR

Tyreek Hill- WR KC- This Kansas City wideout has proven over and over again that he is the only wideout worth paying any mind to in Kansas City... Kelce who was a consistent top tier TE last season, has been very quiet this season for that very reason. Alex Smith is not playing worth a plug-nickel as of late and Mathews is his only claim-to-fame in the air and down field. Against a 28th ranked secondary down in Tampa... Mr. Tyreek Hill will continue to shine PPR style. (Draftkings: $4,500- Proj.: 10.4 PTS)


TE

Delanie Walker- TE Ten- If you have been keeping track of PPR studs as of late, then you knew exactly where I was going with this position. Don't tell me I didn't warn you... Tennessee vs. Indianapolis is going to be an absolute, 100%, beyond any reasonable doubt: SHOOTOUT!!! Mariota LOVES tossing the pigskin to his TE and Walker's PPR stats reflect as such. Rest assured that a very consistent duo in Mariota and Walker, will tear up the 29th ranked Indy TE opposition. (Draftkings: $5,700- Proj.: 14.7 PTS)


FLEX

Eli Rogers- WR Pit- As you may have guessed, Rogers' is my sleeper pick for the week. Cleveland is very sneaky out in the secondary having their one and only shining star: Joe Haden. Just as we saw with Baltimore WR Mike Wallace having been limited by the Joe Haden show while Steve Smith Sr. prospered; look to see a strong Eli Rogers showing while Antonio Brown and Joe Haden have their regularly scheduled play-date. Watch out PPR formats... Eli Rogers will have a game. (Draftkings: $4,300- Proj.:11.0 PTS)


DST

New York Giants- Defense/ Special Teams- Given the risk in utilizing a QB-WR-TE combo, you'll need to ensure you can count on some guaranteed points from a DST. This means you play it safe and start the Giants. Not only is Collins' absolutely dominating the Defensive stat boards this season, but they are matched up against Chicago... Come on... This means that even if David Carr shows up in an Eli Manning costume on Sunday crippling the Giant Offensive attack... Chicago will not score more than 10 points regardless, and that is just a fact. Cutler will throw at least one or two interceptions coupled with 3-4 sacks. Plus you can count on a fumble from either Meredith, Howard, or both... Start the Giants Defense and you guarantee a rare insurance-DST. (Draftkings: $3,500- Proj.: 6.6 PTS)


*** If you are not sold on the idea of starting Rishard Mathews this week in a QB-WR-TE combo then I suggest starting Jamison Crowder instead. If you aren't sold on Eli Rogers as a sleeper, then I suggest CJ Prosise viable flipside. Both Crowder and Prosise are on fire right now and will match up accordingly in a Draftkings salary cap.***

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
