NFL Quick Hits (October 1): Turf toe troubles Steelers’ Parker, Chargers’ Tomlinson practices, Seahawks’ Hasselbeck likely out for Week 4, and more
Willie Parker “Iffy” With Turf Toe One decent game, and everyone gets up in a whirl over Parker’s foot. While he “seems” to be back on track, this injury could either keep him out of week four, or also slow him down. If he plays, he’s sure to split carries with both Rashard Mendenhall and [...]
NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 4: In a slump? A little Coffee can help
Brett Favre and Mark Sanchez further established themselves as, at the very worst, fantasy roster candidates. While normally “sure-fire” performers like Clinton Portis and Thomas Jones bombed. And what was with Willie Parker finally playing well and scoring a touchdown the very week I tell you to sit him? I swear, that guy has it [...]
NFL Quick Hits (September 29): Colts’ Freeney out 2-3 weeks, knee to sideline Cowboys RB Jones, San Fran’s Gore out for three weeks, and more
Dwight Freeney Out 2-3 Weeks For Colts Freeney hurt his quad in Sunday night’s win over the Cardinals, and will almost surely miss the next two games, but should make it back for week seven after Indianpolis’s bye. This puts added pressure on Robert Mathis, as the Colts had already been dealing with a slew [...]
Don’t Kill the Messenger: NFL Fantasy Start & Sit Week 2 Review
I’ve seen and heard some bad calls in my day, but this past week of poor calls (by me, I must admit) bordered on absurd. There, I said it. I didn’t see some strong fantasy plays coming, and I suggested you to sit some others that put up some hefty performances. Still, I’m riding my [...]
NFL Fantasy Football Start & Sit Week 2: Big day for Berrian, Flacco to fall flat
There were plenty of huge performances that could have potentially rescued your entire team, despite the countless eggs laid by supposedly “stud” fantasy options. A few of my week one picks made the latter list, so if you haven’t already, hit up my Start and Sit Week 1 Review to get some explanations, as well [...]
Five Things To Watch For: Detroit Lions
After a horrid 0-16 season made the Lions the laughing-stock of the league, Matt Millen and Rod Marinelli were sent packing, and Jim Schwartz was brought in to right the ship. This is arguably a job that can’t be corrected in one season, and probably not even two or three, but if anyone can get [...]
Fantasy Football Tier Rankings: Running Backs
As with the receivers and quarterbacks, this list is here to split up the A’s from the B’s, and let you know where to draft guys, roughly. Okay, so Adrian Peterson is your running back with the first pick. That was easy. Hell, Yahoo suggested it, right? But now what? The second round rolls around, [...]
NFL Fantasy Start or Sit Week 1: Whose time is it to shine, who should ride the pine?
I’ll admit, I’ve never been a huge fan of articles that try to predict who should start and sit on my fantasy team. There are so many scoring systems and sizes of leagues one man’s start can easily be another man’s sit. So why read this one? Three reasons: 1. I won’t waste your time [...]

Which non-BCS teams could crash the BCS party in 2008?
Three of the last four seasons, the BCS party has been crashed by an ambitious team from one of the ‘Group of Five,’ or in other words, the non-BCS conferences.
