What happened to LT???
The 5 year shelf life of running backs in the NFL must be true, right? It’s obvious that Ladainian Tomlinson is not the player he used to be. A far cry from the 1800+ yards, 28 TDs, 50+ receptions type player of 2006. It seems like just yesterday…..damn, do they really fall [...]

I offered to increase the amount of keepers in my league, but the owners wanted to keep the amount of keepers low to promote parity, which is very understandable. No one likes dynasties unless it’s themselves that are dominating, so while I want more keepers because I am quite astute at scouting prospects and keepers. [...]

Hope everyone has had a Happy Thanksgiving 2008. For most people, this is do-or-die week in the world of fantasy football. For myself, not so much, I never like to lose obviously, but if I had to be defeated, last week and this one aren’t bad ones to do it. I am locked into my [...]

I know, I know, a couple of weeks too late. However, I have been concerned with setting myself up for a playoff run and such, and it slipped my mind to discuss the Rockies’ decision to trade their superstar slugger and NL MVP candidate. When my best friend James texted me about the Holliday [...]

On the heels of Mike Mussina’s announcement to retire after eighteen often distinguished seasons in Major League Baseball, here is my tribute to the probable Cooperstown inductee. He was instrumental to my march towards the title in the “Super Keeper League”. Being from the metropolitan area, I have watched Mussina pitch quite often since he [...]

It’s Thursday night and we’re still talking about Donovan McNabb. Why are we still talking about this? Allow me to vent a little bit, please…….
We live in a era of overtime. Overtime goals, overtime clutch 3’s, extra innings. We keep going until there’s a winner….that’s American sports. Double, Triple and Quadruple overtimes! Why the [...]

Now that’s more like it, a nice bounceback effort against the defending champ, Adam Hammer. His title is merely a formality because it is no longer 2007 and no record-setting Tom Brady is coming to his rescue. Without Brady Magic, Adam has a very average team at his disposal now after starting the season with [...]

Allow me to introduce my self….I am an alternative to our current author…. much less eloquent. Not as intelligent. Quite crude honestly…I will try to restrain my profane vocabulary…but I have a troubling subject to discuss.
Let’s talk about Braylon Edwards my friends. He is currently a heartfelt concern and ongoing potential disaster to fantasy [...]

When news broke that the Yankees acquired first baseman/outfielder Nick Swisher from the Chicago White Sox last week, it was definitely something unforeseen, as far as real life baseball movements or fantasy baseball implications are concerned. I was just as surprised when the White Sox picked him up last winter for Gio Gonzalez, Ryan [...]

Another week, another disappointing showing. I now stand at 6-4, still in first place, but only by one game. My division is pretty mediocre, so I am not too concerned about the regular season as long as I get into the playoffs and do some real damage. It seems like my team underachieves weekly, and [...]
