Growing up in Wisconsin and being a die-hard Green Bay Packer fan, it would be safe to assume that I watched Sunday’s NFC Championship Game with mixed emotions. "Our guy" Brett Favre was out there trying to get the much-hated Minnesota Vikings back into the Super Bowl after years of close...
The fourth game of Wild Card weekend seems like the easiest to call and presents a favorite of mine to do some damage in these playoffs. At this time last year, Arizona looked like a lucky team backing into the playoffs by virtue of its location in a bad division. Of course, all the Cardinals did from...

Sleeper: Denver Well, I almost used Tennessee here, but then I checked back and realized I used the Titans last week. So instead of diving in there again, I'll just say that I believe in Tennessee presenting value as a fantasy defense the rest of the way, particularly in a very favorable matchup...

Sounds like a movie, doesn't it? Well, it may as well be one, especially with how much attention it has reeled in this past week and throughout the first seven weeks of the 2009 season. There's no stopping him now. No. 4 is returning to Lambeau Field with no regrets and the purple helmet. He's...

In an effort to educate, entertain, and enlighten, I give you submission number three in a continuing series of “positioning points” when enjoying RapidDraft. Where is the best place to draft and why? Who can one expect to get from being at the front end of the draft room, in the middle of...
