December is here!

I heart December. There's just something about the festive holiday mood that makes everything a little bit better in December - and now that we're in NYC, I think that's going to be magnified (hello, giant tree in Rockefeller Center, you better believe I'll be coming for a visit). Toss in the fact that football is getting serious and what's not to love about this month?

The end of November means the end of my 1st Annual FFLibrarian Readers' Choice poll. I'm hoping to have the results pulled together for you all by the end of the week. Stay tuned!

Meanwhile, keep the comments coming on the BWW All-Star Blogger League site for a chance to win a $50 gift card to BWW- and in the meantime, Buffalo Wild Wings has graciously offered up the coupon for free wings that you see below at the bottom of the post. And I've got more treats coming from BWW soon, too...plus I'm working on setting up a Thursday Night Football game watch in the next few weeks at the Brooklyn BWW with the first $100 of drinks and food covered by yours truly/BWW. I'd love for any of you in the area to join in on the fun, so again, stay tuned!

Thanks for the cupon. I'm jealous about the potential of a BWW football watching party with fellow readers of my new favorite FFL blog (especially if part of the tab is getting picked up). But I'm not exactly in the neighborhood. I suggest if its a hit, you take the act on tour.

"Coming to a BWW near you... the FFLibrarian thursday night football watch!" It could catch on!

A hiatus

Update:  It is with a very heavy heart that I tell you all that yesterday, August 30th, I delivered our stillborn daughter, Caroline Mary. This has been an almost surreal and definitely heartbreaking experience and I appreciate the support in each and every one of your notes. Caroline will be honored and loved always. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your thoughts and prayers - they mean the world to our family. I have been a very poor blogger this month and feel I owe you all an explanation, particularly as this is crunch time for draft prep. I hope this is not too personal of a look into my life since I know most of you are just here for the football. I am nearly 18 weeks pregnant and we have learned that our baby (a little girl!) has triploidy, a chromosomal abnormality that means she has three copies of every chromosome instead of the normal two. The doctors have explained that it's a completely random occurrence and fairly rare that she has made it this far along, but tha...

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...

2014 Average Position Rankings spreadsheet

Friends, I've got a first draft of the 2014 Average Position Rankings spreadsheet up here as a google doc. If you're new to this annual spreadsheet or need a refresher, here's the scoop. I take the top 200 or so overall rankings that are freely offered by a handful of sites and I average out their rankings for each player. I also take the standard deviation to see how a player's rankings differ among experts, and add that in as another component to give you a sense of how much consensus there is on a player. I drew from the following sites this year: FFToolbox, CBSSports.com (both Jamey and Dave), ESPN, FFCalc's ADP, The Fake Football, The Football Girl, NFL.com, DavidGonos.com, SI, Yahoo, FantasyPros.com, and RealTime Fantasy Sports. All offered roughly a top 200 overall ranking and you can see each site's ranking (gathered 8/20/14) in the second tab on the spreadsheet. You'll see that I really haven't fleshed it out a ton yet - I still have to ge...
