Here I sit, on a dark night, in a dark room, in front of very bright computer screen, reading the dark news about perhaps my favorite NFL player since Cris Carter. I sit in my dark tan chair with nothing on but a light blue and gold No. 21 Ladainian Tomlinson and pair of Scooby-Doo boxers; yes, I still...

So, I guess most football-heavy folks are probably going through some level of withdrawal right about now, but I have to admit that I'm rather excited. For starters, we're now fully into NFL draft season, and the draft is simply my single favorite sporting event of the year. The Super Bowl is...

Wanna feel inadequate? Try dating a bisexual porn star. I don't speak from experience there. I just feel pretty safe in the assumption. My recent brush with inadequacy, however, came via my first fantasy baseball draft of the year. It wasn't so long ago that I fancied myself a pretty solid fantasy...

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...

What would the old Brett Favre do? You know, the one who never did anything wrong, was always showing off his southern smile, and was the Madden Cruiser's number one face. With the game out of reach, and just minutes before the purple and gold moved on to the NFC Championship game the Vikings offense...

If you drafted a playoff fantasy team before the first round, you obviously would have (or, at least, should have) done so with an eye on being able to field a worthwhile team each week and pile up as many total points as possible. If you're heading into the draft room this week, however, you have...

Now that the regular season is over, I could not wait to take a look back at all my bold predictions regarding the 2009 fantasy season. Overall I’d give myself a solid B. I was on the money with a few things, in the neighborhood of a few others and completely clueless on a few more. Here is my...

By now, we've all had NFL.com tell us more than enough times via commercials during the games that the fantasy season isn't over, and that's true here at RapidDraft as well. Of course, although the fantasy season doesn't end at this point, it certainly does change. We all have our own...

Early in the Packers v Bears game on Sunday, Packers QB Aaron Rodgers threw a long pass for an apparent touchdown to Greg Jennings. The 36 yard hook-up was ruled incomplete and was subsequently challenged by the Green Bay sidelines. After taking a look under the hood, the referee ruled that the pass...

And no, I’m not talking about the bomb he caught from Drew Brees, I’m talking about the interception, turned fumble, turned touchdown. Just before the end of the first half in the Saints/Redskins game, Saints QB Drew Brees threw a pass that was intercepted by Washington’s Kareem Moore...

The NFL saw its stretch run begin with a boatload of teams wetting the bed. The Steelers lose to the Chiefs, the Bengals prove to be average and lose to the Raiders and the Cowboys won by scoring their second touchdown in two games to beat the woeful Redskins. Wild Card contenders like the Packers, Giants...

Are you ready? I said, "Are you ready?!" With thousands of Brett Favre lovers and haters in the stands or watching from their recliners, beer in hand, and chip bowl on their lap; the NFL's version of Revenge of the Sith will finally know its outcome. Favre, who in most Packer fans eyes...

RapidDraft users have a little over three days to put together their $250K teams. But don’t panic! Below I have provided some last-minute advice based on the dozen or so (probably more) RapidDrafts I have participated in. Tip #1: Grab 2 running backs early. I know it sounds like the typical advice...

In this Twitter-era that we live in, the influx of information coming directly from NFL stars has been staggering. The Sports Blonde and I were talking on our show, The Fantasy Lunch heard daily from 1-2 Central Time on Blog Talk Radio, and we wanted to come up with the RapidDraft All-Twitter Fantasy...
