Let me start by saying that I love the NFL and I love fantasy football.
But what irks me is this "instant star" mentality that announcers and analysts make out of some of these guys. Today, many NFL players don't have to prove themselves over 4-5 seasons, they can have 2 good weeks and the next thing you know there is All-Pro and Hall of Fame talk.
For instance, with all the coverage of Willie Parker before week 3 you would think he was the next coming of Walter Payton. OK, Parker has had two good games. Maybe he will be an awesome player, who knows. But two good games does not equal superstar. Heck, not even two good full seasons equals superstar in my book. I haven't heard jack about Parker since his mediocre performance in week 3.
Same with Javon Walker. The guy is talented but has produced at an elite level for one freaking year. He had a great year last year, no doubt. Next thing you know he is the next Jerry Rice.
Ok, I'm done. Just needed to get that off my chest. Thoughts?
