NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 10

Because I’m dumb, I forgot to post it up before the Thursday night game. Sorry to all those who missed out on his selection of Quinn, which proved to be quite the hit. It seems this week is all about change. Our country has changed presidents. The Lions have changed quarterbacks. The NFL has changed [...]

Prince out at Kansas State, Patterson next?

And down goes another head coach from the collegiate ranks. While Phil Fulmer’s exit from Tennessee has drawn plenty of ire since it was announced on Monday, I don’t think there will be too many people shedding tears or gnashing teeth about Ron Prince’s resignation from Kansas State.

Heisman Watch: Looking to Lubbock

Harrell or Crabtree? So simple, but so difficult to decide who’s the Heisman front-runner this week. Is it the guy who threw the game-winning touchdown pass, or the guy who caught it.

A few weeks ago, I posted about the 2008 Liberty Mutual Coach of the Year award, and for those who visited the site and cast a vote, kudos to you. More than 150,000 votes have been cast already, and there’s plenty of time to get your vote in before time runs out. Remember, the Liberty [...]

NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 9

Halloween. Trick or Treat. You’d think there would be a clever opening in there somewhere. Turns out Chris Berman has a copyright on all of them. That’s fine – being clever is overrated anyway. Here’s a look at last week’s picks. Time to Shine: QB Jeff Garcia, Tampa Bay: Garcia did everything but get the [...]
