its part of drafting IMO. This happened to me in our draft last week. I simply balance that guy's comment with a "yeah, but they have a new coordinator this year" or some other counter argument. It worked for me.

we do a 14 week reg season, we have 3 divisions made of 4 teams, you play your div opponents twice, everyone else once. We have it structured such that the first 4 games are non-div, then 3 division games, 4 non div games, and then the last 3 are div games. Makes for a balanced schedule and a...

I've drafted from the 12 spot before and from the 11 spot a couple times. I always felt better about my teams when I got WR/WR. You end up with two studs to build off of. However, my league only requires one RB to start so Ican get away with it. I usually draw a line on the RB chart and tell...

Our league has had no such trend. Our best team this year was from the #1 slot, but that was just because he picked up Vick and had some guys fall to him at the 2/3 turn that shouldn't have. If there is a trend in our league it is that the guys at the later slots tend to make the playoffs. But...

The Foster non-TD was worse than Calvin's! Foster actually caught it, tucked it, and reached it over the goal line before the ground knocked it loose. I was sure they were going to call that a TD just because the reaching out of the ball was a clear 'secondary act', he caught it and reached it out.

Championship game, we both have multiple players going down the stretch, with all games seemingly coming to an end simultaneously, points are flickering back and forth, all of the games end and I am ahead by 1.45 points. I am basking in the glow of my first championship. I get a call from my...

So what is the handcuff situation for MJD? There have been stated concerns that he is at risk of breaking down, so who is the logical choice? Is there one? And since no one comes to mind, I'm guessing it would be a pretty cheap handcuff (ie 15th rounder).

I recently did a customized cheatsheet for the upcoming season and found something particularly interesting. The overall rankings varied significantly based on the lineup requirements I put in. Now I can see how things would change for 2 QBs or something like that, but we do a 1QB, 1RB, 2WR...

I enjoy a mix of both, kind of. I think a team should be from somewhere, even it it is a ficticious place. And the team should have a mascot, so my team names are always like this. I encourage names that will stay with the team (ie you can't change your name every year to the joke of the day)...

Did the Lions sign Franklin? Will is a former Missouri Tiger, a hell of an athlete and a real good guy. I'm a Mizzou season ticket holder, so I saw him play a lot of games. I don't have the numbers in front of me, but his vertical and forty times from the draft last year were very good, I...

Did it get unanimously vetoed? If it was a close vote, I would layout an argument for it on the message board or something and try it again. Those on here are assuming this league vetoed it because Calvin>Favre, I would bet it is the opposite. This is why our league went away from voting...

You need to look at more than numbers. Besides, those numbers don't even look good. Especially when you consider how much KState throws in the flats and short slants. More INTs than TDs?? Did you like what you saw last night? Strong arm, but no touch. Fumble lost, one really bad INT, and one INT...

I just looked at Garrard and O'Sullivan's schedules up next to each other and it is pretty nice. SF in general has a nice schedule, with especially nice playoff matchups.
