    That's why I stay away from it. I play with my heart and not with my brain. Even when doing regular picks, no spread, I'll pick the Steelers 16 weeks out of 16, regardless of opponent.

    I was just kidding with you. But you are a better person than I. I will pretty much pick anyone who will help me win.

    Although that one year, I did refuse to draft Golden Tate. I have some standards.

    Without a good offensive line, no QB or RB will make a difference. Only exception to that was Barry Sanders.
    He is damn near a god now, but would have been unbelievable with a better line.

    Troy Aikman was only average as a QB, but had a great line, for example.

    Tony Dorsett, the mouthy punk, would not have survived without Dallas' great Line...(and
    I am a Redskins Fan).

    My friend's brother was a defensive end at WVU that got Dorsett
    thrown out of the game after gaining only 37 yards...spiked the ball in Chuck's face after
    being thrown for a loss. Chuck shadowed him ala Troy Pom...threw him for losses 4 times.
    The coach told Chuck to follow him, even if he went to take a pee...Chuck Smith was mean!

    The Redskins HOGs are another good example, with Riggins being one of them...6'3 and 245 with 4.6 speed.

    ...but, Sorry....

    I do not do fantasy football.

    I was a college linebacker years ago and hung up my cleats after playing
    in military leagues at age 39. 6'00 and 213, 4.5 speed. Pretty fast
    for a white boy!

    I just cannot live vicariously through fantasy..

    My pardons to those that like the genre.

    And I am a woman with a 24 year old daughter. How is my playing in a fantasy league living vicariously?

    Many, many guys do M'Lady.

    Some never even played the game...but get so spun up in it.

    One former co-worker was 5'5 and 115 lbs, but talked a mean game.
    A helmet would have spun on his head... Complete wimp, but supposed expert...

    I can assure you, I have no visions of playing football.

    And we do not even play for $$. It is just for the pure fun of strategizing and winning.

    That, I like.
