Joc's Still Number One; Paul Wall Can Finally Smile: Fantasy Football Week Three Recap

Week three is a wrap, but let the trash-talking continue.

Right before the games on Sunday, Lil Wayne sent a message that said, "I dropped a bunch of people this week and added some players, so I have a real good look right now" (see "Kickoff Time! Check Out Our Fantasy Football League, With Lil Wayne, Paul Wall, Method Man").

He added, "I hated beating Liz last week because she's so pretty (chuckle) ... But I'm looking forward to this weekend's games!"

MTV News' Liz Hernandez didn't reply, but Tyrese "Black Ty" Gibson wrote, "Me and all the homeyz are all on top of it for the whole season ... I got big money comin'." (See how it all went down! Method Man, Paul Wall and the others fight to draft the best players in this video, only on Overdrive.)

Week three brought all the teams closer together. The Joc/ Block Entertainment team is the only squad without a loss, and is alone in first place in the Gridiron Gangstas division. Everyone else in their division is tied for second (this is getting closer than the MLB wildcard races!). Cool & Dre continue their dogfight for supremacy in the Crunchtime Zone Firing Squad division with Ty. And even Paul Wall is smiling this week. You didn't think we wouldn't see those grills all season, did you?

The supermen, Joc and Block, came down to earth just a bit this week. They didn't score 100-plus points, but they still had more than enough to oust the lovely Miss Hernandez. Hats (or should we say helmets) off to running back Brian Westbrook. He scored the most points by any individual yet this year, with 33. That's sick! We're going to see what Block Ent. is made of next week when they have to sit their steady QB Eli Manning and one of their starting WRs, Plaxico Burress, because the New York Giants have a bye week.

And Liz, we love you, but you have to pay a little bit closer attention. L.H. started Randy Moss, who had a bye week, and left Javon Walker on the bench. Had she played him and got his 25 points, the outcome of this game would have been a complete 180. To make matters worse, her other starting WR, Donté Stallworth, didn't even play on Sunday and might not make it to the field again next week.

You can't hold a good (Method) man down. Last week, the Ticallion Stallion finally got on the winning track. Willie Parker paid off and got him 26 points, Carlson Palmer chipped in with 19 — but just when things were looking up for him, Shaun Alexander, his prized first pick, broke his foot and will be out for a couple of weeks, at least. Oh well, Alexander hasn't done too much this year anyway. Weezy just had one of those weeks. Yes, he sat Clinton Portis, who had 27 points, but Clint's playing status was basically up in the year until Sunday. Larry Johnson had a bye week and Daunte Culpepper's playing this year has been about as bland as it goes. Wayne started him, but he might as well let him ride the pine as well.

Four more points and Tyrese too would be undefeated. Besides Donovan McNabb and Torry Holt, the rest of the team were underachievers. Especially Tiki Barber, who hasn't run for 100 yards in the past two weeks. Meanwhile, Paul Wall is wiping some sweat off his forehead — he finally gets a victory. It was a rough two weeks, but the third was the charm. The play of WR Roy Williams put him right over the top.

Luke totally bottomed out last week. That's two losses in a row for him, with the latter being a blowout. He slept on Matt Hasselbeck (who threw for five touchdowns) and left him on the reserved list. Florida boy Byron Leftwich scored just about half (11) as much as Hasselbeck did. The two big daggers in Luke's heart last week had to be Antonio Bryant and Warrick Dunn. Both had monster games the first two weeks, but were shut down in week three. Cool & Dre finally got Steve Smith back in their lineup. He gave them a very respectable 11 points, while Peyton Manning didn't put up his usual colossal numbers, but managed two touchdowns and 18 points. He's looking big every week.

Check back on Friday to see who's going toe-to-toe this week, and which players they're bringing to the table. Stay with us all season as the competition gets rough!
