Middle of the Pack

I met up with my brother and some of the other members of our fantasy football clan at Tilted Kilt to draw cards for where we will pick in the draft next week. Last year I was lucky enough to draw the #1 spot, and I didn't suspect that I would be that lucky two years in a row. I was right, #6 is where I will be.

Oddly enough, I am fine with that. There was a time when not have one of the top three spots meant impending doom and gloom. Today, things are much more even. I also have the added comfort of knowing that I have enough skills to make any lineup work. I've only missed making the playoffs once since 2003, which tells me I will be fine no matter who I pick.

Are We There Yet?

I've had fantasy football on the brain for weeks now. Though I do suspect that a NFL labor agreement is coming soon, I'm starting to sweat. To soothe myself, I have written a few articles about the NFL, drafting strategies, and how to make your fantasy football draft more fun...
