I’m going attempt to break down our first ever “The Point After Show Week 14 DraftKings Challenge.” The fun part of this is that my finding have no basis in reality. They also don’t have any proof to back them up. I am simply utilizing my advanced skills of deduction (the ones that will make me a winner this week) to provide you with a preview of this week.

I like this guy. Extremely good looking. Above average intelligence. I’d have to name him as my early favorite to win the first week of our DraftKings Challenge.

Here we have one of our very own, Paul from The Point After Show. Things in Paul’s favor? He’s currently in the midst of an uncharacteristically good Fantasy Football run. He’s on a heater if I may borrow a gambling term. So, there’s a chance he could bring it home, based solely on his good luck.
The things NOT in Paul’s favor? What the hell kind of user name is that? For his sake, I hope he’s referencing the Counting Crows song. But, I’m pretty sure he’s comparing himself to Rain Man. Which is cocky, to say the least. I don’t appreciate cocky. I live that humble-life. Just reference the above description of myself.
I also suppose that there’s a chance that he just spelt “Ryan” wrong. Who knows. Some questions shouldn’t be answered.
I’m just hopeful that Paul didn’t spend all his time on the toilet today and actually set a lineup.

Tommy from The Pint After Show. Tommy’s been texting us screen shots of his DFS winnings over the last few weeks. But you know that? That doesn’t mean anything. It’s a new week. Also, he’s clearly a fan of John 3:16 or Stone Cold Steve Austin… or both. Noted.

It’s Eddie. You know… “Hey yoooo! Your host with the most chance of winning the Point After Show’s DraftKings Challenge this week.” That is… if by most… you mean, least.
Zing!

I can only hope this is Dan Burke. Dan is the Point After Show’s #1 Facebook troll/hater. With that being said, we can only hope that a loss in DFS is enough to banish him back to the underside of the bridge from wench he resides. If this is a safe space and I can speak freely, there might be a slight Paul obsession going on here. Hopefully the good kind, where he like ends up wearing Paul’s face as a mask.

Whoa. Steve with 5 e’s. Impressive. This tells me that Steve is super excitable, likes to yell his name in a drawn out fashion and is a Giants’ fan. Or, I guess it’s possible that his “e” button just sticks.

The user above is a big supporter of The Point After Show on twitter, so, we’d like to thank her for that. That being said, her retweets can’t buy a championship her. Profile pictures with cleavage can only get you so far in a league full of guys.
P.S. Watch out for sprignoli3…

If I had to base my prediction 100% off of this guy’s facial hair, which I do, I’d say he’s might be a sexual predator… I mean, that he’s not going win challenge this week.

Check out this guy on twitter: @ThePisano – He and his buddies have a Daily Fantasy Sport’s site called Setting The Edge, you can find their website here settingtheedge.weebly.com.
This tells me two things, he cares about DFS more than the average person, but not quite enough to purchase a $10-a-year-domain-name for his website.
Also, while scrolling through his twitter, I felt super old, because he listens to a lot of hip-hop songs by artists that I’ve never heard of. He could be a contender. He has youth and free time on his side.

C-A-V are really solid first letters to have in a last name. I’m partial to a good”Cav,” because it’s basically a lesser version of the nickname “Cavi,” which I respect.
By deduction, I assume this is Jeff Cavanaugh. Why? Because, Jeff’s high school football number was 87 and why wouldn’t someone still utilize that number in things at age 32?

Got “Chillin” in your name? This shows me you don’t care, right off the bat. If this was your resume, I wouldn’t even give you a phone screening.

This username could mean so many things. It’s truly a head scratcher. I’m just going to guess that it means he’s not going to win.
CourtSay
CourtSay is an account belonging to my buddy, Mike Maher’s lovely fiance. Unfortunately for Mike, DraftKings caught him double dipping with two accounts and they banned his personal account.
So, now, Mike’s DFS dream live on through CourtSay’s account. However, in my eyes, that account will always be Courtney’s. Therefore, even if Mike wins, he will never receive recognition for it. Those accolades below to Courtney.
Mike writes for Razzball, 4PhillySports.com and FantasyPros.com. Mike’s one of my best friends and was the best man in my wedding, so I can sincerely say that I hope he comes in dead last place this week.

Jamie just got married a few weeks ago. Will everyone please congratulate Jamie on his newly found wedded bliss? Congrats, Jamie!
Everyone get that out of their system? OK, good. Because, you won’t be congratulating him on winning this DFS challenge.

If you listen to our podcast, you know this guy as Pete, the Point After Show’s lawyer and minority owner of the Green Bay Packers.
Taking that into account, I imagine Pete’s lineup selection going like this… Aaron Rodgers, Jordy Nelson, Davante Adams, Randal Cobb, James Starks, Green Bay’s Defense… then, he ran out of money and left the rest of the spots blank, and submitted it that way. You have to respect his loyalty, if nothing else.
flutie342
Matt Serniak, friend of the show and writer for The Point After Show’s website.
Flutie? Like, Doug Flutie? This guy has about as much of a chance of winning this game as Doug Flutie has of making a comeback.
But, then again… Doug Flutie WAS known for taking long shots.

White people doing black face is never OK. Never.

You are tiny, Rick.
That’s what she said.

Mike’s a friend of the show and he’s even been a guest on an episode. Unfortunately he was invited onto the show because he was in last place in our league-of-note.
His fantasy football skill set will be put to the ultimate test during this DFS challenge. By that, I mean, he’s just trying not to come in last place. Again.
Jmg4242
I’ve got nothing for this one. Utilizing “42” twice in one username just screams “I’m lazy” and shows a complete lack of creativity. Let’s hope he puts similar effort into setting his DFS lineup. Fingers crossed.
dies373
This dude’s profile picture is his head, photoshopped onto Jesus’s body and his user name is “dies.” At least I think it’s photoshopped… But, what if it’s not? I’ll let you draw your own conclusions on this chap.
We’re all hoping he doesn’t have any divine intervention this week. Because, just to be clear, we consider that cheating and collusion. No colluding with your father AKA God.
That’s day 1 stuff.
MadMikeP
Mad Mike P, I like your style bro. Who needs Instagram, when you can just show everyone what you had for lunch by making it your DraftKings’ profile picture? Not, Mad Mike. He he’s not messing around.
P.S. Mike, wings are always a good choice. Ask Paul.
CSpaglia
Ladies and Gentlemen, may I present Carmen Winters, Realtor? If you’re buying a house, visit CarmenWinters.com and hit him up. Finding you the right house is one thing he’s good at, unlike DFS.
What could Carm’s username mean? In a non-stereotypical move at all, which I’m sure isn’t offensive to other Italian Americans, Carm has chosen to liken himself to Carmen Spaglia from The Godfather movie.
This totally original and non-cliche choice of a username sets up a great joke… “Hey CSpaglia, I hope the one favor you asked the Godfather for was to help you win this week’s league. Because, that’s your only chance. ”
… Nailed it.
PatJamesFC
Pat’s profile picture of the Joker. It was clearly drawn, by hand, in MS Paint. This tells me a lot about him.
1. He clearly has too much time on his hands.
2. It’s the Heath Ledger Joker. So, my assumption is that Pat’s probably slightly twisted.
1+2 = A potentially good DFS player. Then again, I believe in Harvey Dent.
