Greetings from 72 and sunny San Diego.  And yes, I'm trying to accentuate the positive after another disappointing weekend of fantasy football.  But let's unpack it a little and see if there are any lessons going forward.First of all, I'm considering a new addition to the rules -- No Friday Read full entry

First things first... let's draw a line under last week.  Knew it was a risk but I was hoping that CRon would be rested and Rooney wouldn't.  And to afford that I had to gut down to Robbo.  It didn't work.  I'm trying to accept the outcome - being outscored Read full entry

This isn't a big week for injuries and suspensions.  Giggs and Saha doubts with EvdS out for the Derby match.  MPet and "Buy a Vowel Kuszczak suspended.  Otherwise, it's really a matter of looking at the two gamers and guessing who gets the most PT... and who makes the most Read full entry
