With Week 2 of the NFL starting tomorrow I’m gonna keep the ball rolling with my Draft Kings guide for this week as promised. For all the doubters out there (Of which there are many) I won a fair amount of coin with both of my lineups last week so it’s your loss if you didn’t trust my picks. Once again there’s a lot of good matchups this week, and now that I’ve gotten to see some teams play, this should be yet another good week for Drunk White Kid.

Decided to stick with my format from last week and formulate 2 lineups and will be doing so for the rest of the season. Both teams should shine unless the Fantasy Gods strike me down for my good fortune last week, but I’ve been praying to them a lot so hopefully not. As I mentioned in the parenthesis my second lineup is definitely riskier than the first because I picked 2 absolute scrub receivers for salary purposes. Their teams are currently riddled with injuries though, so there’s a good chance they’ll get the ball thrown their way which was a big part of why I chose them opposed to the other cheap scrubs there were to choose from. That’s all for now. I’m grabbing a beer with my bookie later on tonight to fill out my betting slip for this week, so I’ll likely put up my betting guide blog either tonight (if I’m sober enough) or tomorrow. I think we all know I won’t be sober enough tonight, so realistically lets just say tomorrow. That’s all for now. Good luck pussies
