At “Stream Pies,” we are serving up gooey loads of knowledge. Here, we’ll provide invaluable streaming advice on kickers and DEF teams who are owned in less than 30-percent of Yahoo! leagues. We list the options in order of best option to “least-best” option (with the strongest recommendations starting at the top).We also include last week’s suggestions and full season results. Points are based on default Yahoo! settings.

No, there are no Week 17 streaming recommendations. The reason? Negative reinforcement. That’s right, you can’t have amazing fantasy analysis if you play in a Week 17 league, so hopefully you learn your lesson and keep the shit at 16 weeks like a normal person.

So why another “Stream Pies” post? Well, in the spirit of accountability, we have to let you know how we fared this season and provide you with some closing thoughts. It’s only right, and it happens right after the jump:

It is championship week in fantasy football, and if you have already made it to the championship you probably will not need to pick up and play anyone this week. However, I am still laying out some suggestions to play as injury fill-ins or if you just want to play someone with a great matchup. Like Starbonell, I am also looking ahead to the fantasy basketball season. For those of you that are interested, “Don’t Sleep” will be continuing into the NBA season and I will be giving you weekly waiver adds for fantasy hoops. Enough of that though. Let’s get into my final football waiver adds of the season. More after the jump:

This is the end
Beautiful friend
This is the end
My only friend, the end

First off I'd like to congratulate all the Sons of Roto who have waged conquest on their leagues and marched to the championship round. My friends, this is the end. The beautiful end. We need no elaborate plans. No safety or suprise. We'll never look into Jake Locker's eyes, again. We're sticking to our guns. We're playing the people who carried us this far. Unless Eli Manning is your Quarterback. I'd pick up Rex Grossman and start him againt the helpless Vikings secondary. What say you my championship worthy comrades? Which NFC East QB would you start this week, Rex vs MIN or Eli at NYJ? After the jump, championship week rankings for fantasy football.

Well, we’re down to the last week of the fantasy football season and you know that this is a critical...

All right, I gotta be totally honest with you. I just don’t care that much about football anymore. Now that baseball is on the horizon and basketball is started up, fantasy football has lost its luster. So writing an intro for a fantasy football article? Yeah, you better believe I’m mailing that shit in.

Don’t Sleep is back for a Week 15 edition to help your fantasy playoff teams gain that final edge over your opponent. Many of you that have advanced in the playoffs barely squeaked out a victory last week despite dealing with injuries and poor play on your roster. You might have had your eye on some hot waiver wire pickups, just to see the owner you are facing this week grab them before you could. Well, I am here to shed light on some deep sleepers who slipped through the cracks that can get the job done and launch you into the championship. Percentage owned based on ESPN leagues.

And the lord said let there be light.

Seriously, that reflection, or halo, was not intentionally placed. Tim Tebow shines even when the darkest of shadows looms overhead. On the flip side, it must suck to be in the Jason Witten market. Laurent Robinson is using a pitch fork to poke the poor souls who own a piece of the Cowboys Tight End. Poking away and tweaking his finely groomed mustache. My version of the devil has a mustache. Alright, enough talk. Let's get to the Week 15 positional rankings.

Not much to say this week. Anyone still alive in their respective leagues knows what needs to be done, and I’m just here offering up my recommendations as sleeve aces for your weekly matchups. You’re welcome.

It’s playoff time and a lot of you are probably shitting your pants because you just found out one of your key players is questionable and you missed out on all the hot waiver-wire pickups. Don’t worry, because I am back with another edition of “Don’t Sleep” to help get you through these tough times. All of these players have cleared waivers and can step in and help you this week. Percentage owned based on ESPN leagues.

Just like it's counterpart, the NFL, injuries lead to a high turnover rate in the world of fantasy football. The champions of 2009 are the decapitated, ankles-glued-back-together bodies of today. Remember, it's not your fault.

So your team went 5-8. You lost. The fat lady has sung. It's all over... well, kind of. One very important part of the fantasy football season remains: it's time to roll out the excuses. Most people would show weakness at a time like this by posting silly messages like, "Congrats to everyone who made the playoffs", but not me; not MDS. This is the time of the season when you reinforce the notion of your superiority, whether you won or not. I don't know about your losses, but my Big L's are not the fault of my own. I can justify them. I have good reasons to why I didn't win. I have excuses. Make the jump to see the Top Ten Excuses to why you didn't win your fantasy football league.

As the fantasy football regular season has come to an end, most fantasy football coverage has quieted. “Stream Pies,” on the other hand, is here to stay. That’s right, we’re carrying your sorry-asses all the way to Week 16, so climb inside ole’ Daddy Starbucks’ creepy minivan, but don’t tailgate. The exhaust fumes billowing out of this championship ride are sure to induce nausea.
