A Few New Items

Just to let everyone know I have put up a 2nd player ranking site along with a Trade Calculater which is kinda cool. You put in your player or players to trade and then select the player or players you are trading for and it tells you if thats a solid trade or a dangerous one. I think it needs to be updated a bit but its still cool to play with.

football news

We are hereing about all the bad guys, surly their is some positive thing to say about players out there. The pack just had a group of player vist one of the warships and spend the day with the soldiers. I thought that was a pretty nice thing they did for the troops. I for one am glad to see not all the player make bad news.Any one else hear some good news let here what you have to say.

Where is T.O.?

This has been another crazy offseason with trades, drafts and players misbehaving but what is unusual is not one thing from Terrell Owens. When chaos is swirling around the NFL Owens is right in the middle keeping it going. I guess he felt that his childish games would be overshadowed by the much bigger stories going on right now, from Vick and the dogfighting thing to player deaths, Owens would have little to offer us in the news. Maybe when the season gets closer and the big stories go away then Owens can begin to whine and throw a fit, then we will have no choice but to hear it, or and this is a huge or, Owens has grown-up...........nah, I doubt it. Its to bad that such a good player has to be such a baby, maybe thats why he had those childrens books published like the one at the top there, to teach him how to play nice. Time will tell on what he might do or say but this will be my only writing about Owens, I don't like to waste more time on him then this.

mind games

As the mind games go so do the days of our life.Just another soap opera in the making as we try to get the jump on all the rest of you guys and girls out there. Good luck to all in the rounds to come as we make or break on who we pick and who we don't

The Soap Opera That is Brett Favre

So of course you knew or should've known that something would be on here about Favre. Once a great Qb and a solid fantasy starter, your thoughts would be of hall of fame, superbowls and broken records. Favre also was a player that you could look at and say "man its nice to see someone enjoying the game like him". That was 3 years ago or maybe even 4, these days Favre is all about thinking he is management and telling the coaches they don't know what the hell they are doing. At what point did Favre stop being a player and turn into a coach, owner, gm, etc. oh thats right that never happened!! go back to being a player everyone wishes you would, if not then retire already. All he is adding to the game is how the fans think of him when his name is mentioned. His fantasy numbers for last year in passing was 129 pts, with tds it was 183 (3800 yds and 18 tds) which like Grossman isn't bad, also like Grossman, Favre has another side to his game. His fumbles and ints were -52pts (18 ints and 8 fumbles) making his fantasy points around 131 (remember Brees had around 200pts with mistakes) Favre is another gamble on Qb and since the Packers have not changed much his numbers might be right around the same this year. I hope that gives you something to think about.

That Rascally Rex!!

To draft or not to draft, that is very much the question. Rex was a huge fantasy QB that without warning was putting up monster numbers in the first half of the season. Owners totally scored with him and got him dirt cheap, most of the time he was undrafted and could just be plucked from the free agent pool. What everyone didn't know at the time is there was another side to Rex, a darker side that soon would turn gold into crap. While his season numbers aren't much to wow at (3193 yds and 23 tds) they look like a consistent Qbs numbers, but they are not. His fantasy points in passing last year was around 106, with his tds it was 175 (league leader D. Brees had 225pts) which isn't bad but add in the bad Rex with 20 ints and 8 fumbles which is -56 pts, dropping his year numbers to 119 (D. Brees with mistakes is around 200). My point is should you gamble on him or not, he will make or break you each week putting up plenty of yards and tds one week and then 7 turnovers another. Good luck to the brave soul who drafts him.

The Gates Obsession

It seems like just yesterday we where doing our draft last year. Picking and choosing who we think should be the best, trying to jump and get a top player ahead of everyone, or just trying to get through it. Most drafts pick RB,RB,WR,WR,QB,QB and then it gets alittle wild after. So our draft was swimming along in the normal fashion for the most part when out of the blue A. Gates is drafted in the 4th round. I was thinking "wow that was early" and so was a lot of the rest of you but that didn't stop the league from going into a panic and TEs started falling even though it was still quite early for them. We now fast forward to this year. We are once again jumping around trying to get the best players but still trying to keep balance and again out of the blue in the 4th round A. Gates is drafted. So is it time to panic once again or is the league going to stay calm? time will tell. What I want to know is what is the obsession with A. Gates people!! He is a nice TE but there are at least 10 that are just as nice, his numbers even fell last year and he still gets drafted ahead of positions that get more points then his. So the question is to you Schaefer, what makes him your special man?

We Now Have A Home

Welcome to our own little piece of the world. I was getting ideas, comments, etc. from everyone and thought it might be easier if we have this to go to. For some this will be alittle confusing and for others a breeze. Those of you that can't get the posting thing down don't worry, if you comment at the bottom of a post we can still all see it and respond. I will also be using this more then emails. The round recap and things will be posted here. I know that once the league is set up we can talk in there but this will be up year round and have things achieved for help. Also I will be adding links to player ranking lists, nfl.com, our league once its up, and just other weird stuff. I hope this works for us. Thanks
