FDH Insider/Goon Squad October 22

By Rick Morris

On tonight’s FDH Wednesday night on SportsTalkNetwork.com, we begin with THE FANTASYDRAFTHELP.COM INSIDER (7-9 PM EDT). Right off the bat, we have a look at some developments in the world of fantasy football that have at least an outside chance of leading to a nightmare scenario for the business down the road. We then examine your FDH Top 5 Waiver Wire picks for NFL Week 8 and get the lowdown on the fantasy injury picture from STN’s Ben Chew. From there, we examine Week 8 NFL matchups game-by-game from a fantasy perspective, which will take us into the final half hour of the show. At that time, we review some material from last week’s FDH Fantasy Newsletter relating to trends in Major League Baseball that we have tracked for the past few seasons. How is MLB’s process of “detoxing” affecting the fantasy game? We have the numbers.

Then, on THE GOON SQUAD (9-10 PM EDT), we break down some of the hot news that is circulating right now. From the coaching shakeup in Chicago to Steve Yzerman’s new job leading the Canadian Olympic program into the 2010 Games on home ice to the tragic and shocking passing of young Rangers prospect Alexei Chrepanov, we have our thoughts on all of these matters. In our second half hour, the start of the NHL season goes under the microscope. Which teams have been the biggest surprises, good or bad? Which players? We’ve got it all for you tonight if you’re a hockey fan looking for a one-hour jam-packed look at the world of big-time hockey!
