Lucky links for Week 13

Like much of the country, I did not make it through all of the MNF game last night and was in and out tending to our little dude and finally conked out at halftime to get some sleep. When I woke up for a middle of the night baby feeding though I caught up on the news that Frank Gore is out for the remainder of the season . Oh Gore owners, I'm so sorry...may Westy be available to you in all your leagues. Or Dixon. Or both.

Goodbye 12, hello 13

So we returned home from our trip to northern Virginia for Thanksgiving with my family to a find a real treasure from our cat sitter: he had flushed non-flushable cat litter down the toilet for some unknown reason. This being our one and only toilet made the past day or two rather unpleasant but thanks to the wonder of a snake and our building maintenance dudes, we're back in business. The owner of the cat sitting company apologized profusely for the complete incompetence of this dude (I mean seriously, what was he thinking? Clay + water = cement) and now I'm a bit of an expert on home remedies for clearing toilets...so no major complaints really. Here's hoping your FF team isn't in the toilet, so to speak, and that today's waiver wire links will be of help to you: First up, in case you missed any of this weekends games while traveling and such, no problem, my friends. Take a look at some of these wrap-ups for game reviews and fantasy thoughts: Roto Arcade's...

Consensus start/sit list, Week 12

Greetings and sorry for the late consensus start/sit post. Things got crazy here with Thanksgiving travel and our return home to an unwelcome surprise (more on that tomorrow), but better late than never! As a reminder, I've tallied up the players with the most start/sit votes from the start/sit links I posted earlier this week as well as a few others that I read this morning, and have listed those players below (in no particular order). Note that I've avoided listing any players that already played on Thanksgiving. QB Start: Ben Roethlisberger, Matt Cassel, Brett Favre Sit: Jay Cutler, David Garrard RB Start: Brandon Jacobs, Mike Tolbert, Thomas Jones and Jamaal Charles Sit: Brandon Jackson, Beanie Wells, Marshawn Lynch, Fred Jackson WR Start: Mario Manningham, Nate Washington, Sidney Rice, Vincent Jackson, Steve Johnson Sit: Johnny Knox, Randy Moss, Anquan Boldin, Hines Ward, Jeremy Maclin TE Start: Joel Dreessen, Heath Miller, Jacob Tamme, Kevin Boss Sit: Kell...

Thanksgiving Week waivers, start/sit, etc

For the second time since we brought our tiny bundle of joy home, I got over 5 hours of sleep in a row last night. It was pretty sweet. Even better than beating my husband pretty thoroughly this past weekend in one of the leagues we play in together (though for the sake of full disclosure, he did beat me in another league this week). But the awesome sleep came at a price: our little dude was an unhappy camper for many hours yesterday, which makes the long sleep a bit more bittersweet. But we're on the cusp on a long, holiday weekend and I've got lots of links for you. Since I'll be traveling I probably won't post again until the weekend when I'll try my best to do a consensus start/sit for you all. Enjoy your Thanksgivings and safe travels!

Holiday week advice

Well it looks like the Thanksgiving holiday week is starting off a bit sluggishly as some of my favorite sites are still slowly getting their articles for the day up. Don't be surprised to see a smaller number of links this week but I'll try to make sure the ones I get up are high quality. Just a friendly reminder to those who are either living in a cave or just new to football: there are three games on Thursday so you'll really want to make sure your lineups are set by then. Let's get to today's links: For a review of some of the weekend's games, take a look at Andy Behrens' Sunday Scene, Week 11: Shaun Hill loses again, produces for your fake team . Can't quite believe a dude named Rusty will be QBing the Titans this week... Also scope out KFFL.com's Post-game Injury Report - Week 11 for a nice, succinct spot for injury news from yesterday.

Ed Hochuli's Guns

Ed Hochuli, you have competition. We had a friend over last night for Thursday Night Football and we all noticed that one of the refs was rocking an Ed Hochuli-like look; not quite the same buff bicep action as we've all come to know and love from Hochuli...but I'm just saying, watch out Hochuli: there's competition in Buff Ref Land. Beyond buff refs we've got plenty of material for Week 11, so take a look: Start/sit for Week 11: Fifth Down's Week 11 in Fantasy Football: Matchups and Q&A Roto Experts' Lineup Lieutenant Matthew Berry's Love, Hate and Michael Vick Roto Arcade's Lames: Turner to leave uncomfortable burning sensation in the 'Lou' CBSSports.com's Week 11 Start 'em and Sit 'em FFArmory.com's Start 'em, Sit 'em Week 11  Bruno Boys' Start 'ems    Razzball.com's Schmidt, Schmardt, Week 11 Week 11 rankings: Razzball.com's Week 11 Positional Rankings Ultimate Fantasy Football Strat...
