Week 7 Review and Injuries

Well today is the day to buy World Series tickets here in Denver. I've got less than 15 minutes until ticket purchase time but I have very low expectations for being able to get through and buy them. Word on the street here is that the website/server the Rockies are using is just awful. These are the things that happen to teams that never win enough to ever get to the WS before...I'll keep you posted on whether or not I'll be attending a WS game in person.

But back to football. Enough of this crazy baseball talk. For your injury updates on the past week, check out KFFL's Post-game Injury Report - Week 7 or just read Rotoworld's NFL Headlines section. There are enough big names listed with injuries to send a shiver down your spine. Brandon Jacobs may have re-injured his ankle? Gore might be out for Week 8? Travis Henry left with bruised ribs? Bulger played miserably? Oh wait, that's no surprise considering the state of the Rams these days. Anyway, read up. I personally don't think Gore will be out for Week 8 - I watched him come back and run a fair amount more after this ankle injury so I am not even going to waste my time worrying about it. Yet.

Of course it's never to early to get the juices flowing on which free agent(s) to get off the waiver wire. So here are a few sites that are already up and providing some suggestions for you:

Wow... you weren't kidding -

Rockies Ticket Trouble
Yeah, frustrating stuff out there with the Rockies tickets. I kept refreshing my timed out pages on-and-off for a few hours (I'm sure they loved me for doing that!) until I heard over the radio that their system had basically been so overwhelmed that it was turned off for now. Not really sure what the next plans will be but honestly, I think anyone could've predicted this outcome when you have such massive demand and not a very strong server/infrastructure set up.

Nice pick up of Chatman in the blogger league. I drafted him in most of my leagues but have since let him go ....ugh!

This injury just put me out of the race I believe.

Labor Day FF links

Happy long weekend! Here's hoping most of you are free to enjoy the 3-day weekend and the relaxation and fun that comes with it. I spent my Sunday participating in 3 fantasy football drafts scattered throughout the day and night, but I think I've finally wrapped up my drafts for the year. So like many of you I'm now turning my attention to the Week 1 games! But before we get to some player rankings and prep for Week 1, I want to make sure that all you experts out there are aware of the upcoming deadline for the annual accuracy contest that I run with the Fantasy Sports Trade Association. I compare preseason positional rankings from experts to the final outcome of the fantasy season to see which site had the most accurate preseason rankings, and this year's deadline is fast approaching: September 9th by kickoff. Check out the info on the FSTA site for more details and be sure to e-mail me your submissions. Now, onto Week 1! First up, let's get to some of this

2010 Week 2 consensus start/sit

Greetings and happy weekend. I've got this week's consensus start/sit for you which is a tally of all the start/sit votes that players received in the various start/sit articles that I linked to earlier in the week. So while these aren't my personal recommendations, I do think knowing what the consensus is could be of help when making lineup decisions...so enjoy! Note: the players are listed in no particular order. QB Start: Michael Vick, Kyle Orton, Matt Ryan, Jason Campbell Sit: David Garrard, Alex Smith, Jay Cutler, Vince Young, Carson Palmer RB Start: LeSean McCoy, Darren McFadden, Ahmad Bradshaw, Brandon Jackson Sit: Tim Hightower, C.J. Spiller, Beanie Wells, Ronnie Brown WR Start: Santana Moss, Legedu Naanee, Malcolm Floyd, Mike Williams (TB), Dez Bryant Sit: Randy Moss, Michael Crabtree TE Start: Chris Cooley, Todd Heap, John Carlson, Jermichael Finley Sit: Jermaine Gresham, Owen Daniels, Tony Scheffler, Jeremy Shockey, Bo Scaife Kicker Start: La

Start/Sit Week 4 and a smattering of rankings

It's been awhile, my fantasy football friends. I have lofty intentions of getting several posts up here each week, but life is busy and I will do my best. So in the intervening 6 years since I've posted regularly on here, our family added another child (now there are 3!), moved back to Boulder for a sabbatical year and then returned to Knoxville, and we have basically been chugging along like many of the rest of you. My two boys (who turn 12 and 9 soon) are in a fantasy football league for the first time this year with their buddies, which ostensibly is the just the dads (and mom!) playing one another of course. But my oldest is taking it super seriously and what kind of Fantasy Football Librarian would I be if I didn't step up my game for him? So I'm back - and am interested in the fantasy landscape - lots of the same awesome sites out there, but many new ones as well. I'll try to incorporate a mix. Please be sure to let me know if my 2006 ways aren't working i
