So, does anybody have good info on whether he is playing or not? I have to sub for him pretty soon if he's going to sit.

Two words--Madden Curse!!

Another guy who drafted Ronnie Brown and Caddy Williams here Let's hope that Lamont Jordan's back holds up the rest of the season

I downgrade the passing and kicking games a good bit if I know there will be a lot of rain/snow and/or wind.

Durn back injuries--this one seems to be nagging too. It looks like Fargas will get the most chances, and Rhodes behind him. In future weeks, assuming Jordan isnt healthy, I would expect Rhodes to take over about 60% of the carries since Fargas tends to break down a bit physically. So the I expect the Raiders to try to save him a bit as long as Rhodes is running ok.

On the plus side, I see Brees and the Saints decline as yet another example of how things are getting back to normal in the post-Katrina Big Easy

Gore's a good back, but he needs some help somewhere on that offense. He's getting zip from the QB and receivers and not much from the O-line. But why shouldn't Gore be a bust this year? LT, LJ, SJax, Shaun Alexander are busts this year, and I own Willie Parker and while he is getting good yardage he is barely getting any scores, so he is a bit of a bust as well.

In my case, Ronnie Brown, Tony Romo and until a week ago, Lamont Jordan

My TDs were vultured by Najeh "The Pooper" Davenport. Someone in Pittsburgh should "Free Willie" and send Najeh back to sit on the bench, or at least squat on his stool. (When Najeh stops vulturing my TDs, I will knock off the turd jokes at Najeh's expense)

I have McMichael on my team, and his production has been so bad that a move to the bench would have a barely noticeable impact on his fantasy output

I'll join the chorus of others piling on the OP. Congratulations on being the first guy in your league to get on your computer this morning. That must have taken some real fantasy know-how. Especially that part where you cut Steven Jackson to get the injured Lamont Jordan when Jordan is going into more of a platoon situation with a returning Dominic Rhodes anyway. Basically, you have a lame league where: 1. An owner turns nancy after going 1-3 and not only does nobody care, they view it as a chance to raid his lineup. If you want to give us some really useful information that will help improve fantasy football, give us this guys name and the city he is from so that the rest of us can avoid him like the plague in any future leagues. Basically, this guy is 2 games away from playoff contention with 2/3 of the fantasy regular season left, and he not only decided to mail it in for the rest of the year but he screwed the rest of the league in the process. 2. Once an owner goes soft, he can unload his whole lineup with nobody asking questions, and there are no waiver periods or uncutable players. Most leagues that know what they are doing have those, and for a good reason. 3. An owner can be paid to dump his players and time it out with other owners in the league who swoop in to grab his cast-offs as soon as they are dropped. Personally, I would like to see what kind of post you would come here to make if the other 8 owners in your league decide to teach you a lesson by colluding to dump their best players into one team and owning you hard with their mad fantasy skillz. Taking candy from a baby is something that we can all do, yet very few of us on these boards would come here to brag about it afterwards. Come here to post when you have a real fantasy achievement to talk about, like identifying a sleeper RB who is going to average 80 yards and a TD for the second half of the season, or something like that.

My league charges $200 per team for our league pot, which is more than most leagues. Any wife that gets worked up about $200 in this day and age (assuming that checks aren't bouncing and the bill collecters are not lined up at the door) is being a controlling shrew and needs to mellow out in a big way.

Edge fell very far in our draft--the equivalent of about the middle of 6 rounds considering that my league has 3 keepers per owner.

As they say on other internet forums--"IBTL" (thats "in before the lock" for those of you who speak English)

So if Vick is Ron Mexico, should Brady go with a nom-de-boudoir like Albert Panama? Oh, and I think the Gisele is preggers thing turned out to be a rumor.
