Now that the Summer movie season has convened, and taken the Summer Blockbuster Series with it, let’s move to the only other thing that I’m as gaga over as film and football. That’s right, another “F” word–fantasy football. During the season, I’ll drop The Best View on you every Monday. But first, here’s my 2008 TBV Fantasy Football Preview.

First off, since my biggest draft is tonight, I’m praying that nobody will see this beforehand. Even if they do read it, which they won’t, they’re all a bunch of idiots anyway. Which explains why I haven’t won in five years, during the inaugural season.

40 Ounces of Fantasy:

1. Michael Clayton. Great movie, fantasy hasbeen.

2. Make sure you pick the right Adrian Peterson. Remember, there is still that “Other” Adrian Peterson who plays for Chicago. The only thing “All Day” about him is that you’ll be beating yourself up all day every Sunday if you goof and pick him.

3. Frank Gore is going to make even more people hate him. Guaranteed.

4. Ditto Mike Martz. I’m starting to think this guy is heavy on the “mad,” light on the “genius.”

5. The Drew Brees-to-Marques Colston connection is good for 15 TDs. I’m dead serious.

6. That will be the same amount of TDs that Carson Palmer throws to both Chad Johnson and T.J. Houshmandzadeh. And that’s if Ocho Cinco doesn’t end up en el hospital.

7. Don’t draft a Cincy running back. That is, unless you are trying to punish yourself. You’d have to tie me up and pry my eyes open Clockwork Orange-style to watch and root for the Cincy rushing attack on a weekly basis. Yuck. On the other hand, I’m a hypocrite. I end up with a Houston back every year.

8. This is not the year to finally get your hands on Peyton Manning.

9. This is definitely not the year to finally get your hands on his teammate Marvin Harrison. This is the year we finally take Marvin out to the glue factory.

10. Chris Brown the singer might bust out the moves, but Chris Brown the running back won’t. Same for Ahman Green. The only Houston back you want is Steve Slaton, and only late in your draft.

11. I have a gut feeling that Willis McGahee isn’t going to hold up. Because of that, I love Ray Rice.

12. I like Darren McFadden, but because of Adrian Peterson I think he’s going too high.

13. Kevin Smith–no, not the portly director I used to love, who seemingly forgot how to make movies around the turn of the century–is a better buy. He’s this year’s Marshawn Lynch. Beast Mode with out the hit-and-run tendencies.

14. Speaking of Kevins, if you draft Kevin Jones I don’t feel sorry for you.

15. Have I mentioned Marques Colston yet? I think he’s the third best receiver in football, behind only Randy Moss and Terrell Owens.

16. Jeremy Shockey’s addition will only help Colston…and Brees.

17. Darren Sproles is the handcuff you want for LaDanian Tomlinson. The guy does amazing thing with his touches, so who cares if he only ends up getting 15-20 a game should L.T. go down. Plus, he’s the Bolts returner.

18. Larry Johnson is getting absolutely no respect. I am a Chiefs fan, but there is no way he doesn’t improve dramatically on last year’s numbers. Trust me on this one. I’ve been watching him and reading about him all offseason. I would pick him over Frank Gore eight days a week. Clinton Portis as well.

19. I like Drew Brees and Tony Romo better than Peyton Manning.

20. I like Brian Westbrook better than Adrian Peterson. He will play in more games and be more consistent on a ppg basis.

21. I like Westbrook even more after looking at the Eagles’ cakewalk schedule.

22. I like Westbrook even more knowing that injuries have wiped out the Iggles’ WR corps. No. 5 has to throw to somebody.

23. I love Earnest Graham. Tampa Bay has a great schedule line up for him.

24. I don’t like Ryan Grant, last year’s other super sleeper. Green Bay is overrated.

25. Tim Hightower may take Edge’s goalline carries and his job by year’s end.

26. Josh Morgan will replicate what Shaun McDonald did last year and Mike Furrey did two years ago. He’s the new “Mike Martz guy.”

27. With Al Saunders in the house, I think both Randy McMichael and Torry Holt are underrated.

28. I love Zach Miller. C’mon, JaMarcus Russell has to throw to somebody. When he needs his security blanket, it will be Miller Time.

29. Do not pick Derek Anderson. Your fantasy team will get concussed worse than he recently was.

30. Eddie Royal is going to be the No. 2 WR in Broncoland. And if he can’t beat out Colbert, Jackson and Stokley, you don’t want him. Keep an eye on the kid.

31. I am sippin’ on Ginn and juice. I like Ted Ginn Jr. Almost as much as Chad Pennington likes his new favorite target.

32. Calvin Johnson has now become overhyped. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Dwayne Bowe out perform him again or at least come close. Scoop up D-Bowe a full round or two later. Some have C.J. in their top ten–yikes! If you draft Megatron that early, he might be a mega-bust.

33. Hines Ward is underrated again. Not sure how that happened, but he’s still got something left.

34. I’m not totally sold on Big Ben.

35. J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets. Great fantasy sked, great line, great fullback. Brett Favre and Thoms Jones are looking good. The rest of the Jet’s playmakers aren’t bad bets either.

36. Jamal Lewis is going to lead the league in carries.

37. I like Marion Barber better than Joseph Addai or Steven Jackson. I’m projecting near 20 TDs.

38. I like Eli Manning and Jon Kitna. These guys have gone from overrated to underrated in a year’s time.

39. Someone will emerge as Matt Hasselbeck’s “glue” guy in Bobby Engram’s absence. I’m betting on Courtney Taylor, although Ben Obomanu is also worth a late-round flier.

40. Do not reach for Antonio Gates.  Doing so will lose you your league.

That’s it. Thanks for reading, and as they say on one of my favorite shows, Battlestar Galactica, good hunting!
