I've not heard about his drug ban Alex but he's a bit accident prone with less resilience than Amir Khan!

Tony Romo has been dropped for Jake Locker - ouch :D
Pretty surprised I was a able to pick up Lamar Miller, even at the cost of the ever reliable Darren McFadden.
I seem to have lots of good players this year and it is quite difficult to know who to leave out, Matt Stafford has been cut after last weekend's outstanding performance to make way for Griffin III - well it is Jacksonville.

Not a word of thank you from Alex for leaving Peterson to the Histon Hawks - how ungrateful can you get :?

Hmmm, My quarterback is currently scoring a negative number of points and one of the wide receivers who I left on the bench has just thrown a touchdown pass.

Victor Cruz on the bench 15.5 points, 5 player selected in the team 15.48 in total. Anyone would think I didn't know what I was doing.

Fingers crossed someone can injure Brandon Marshall's other ankle this evening. Playing on one foot didn't seem to stop him last week.

I appear to moved from 8th to 3rd with a stunning Monday night win over Fischer random. I might have a 3-4 record, there might be two good teams who I never going to catch, but I'm third and there is hope - Matt Turner, Bears fan

A pretty good game despite seeing three very mediocre quarterbacks. Andrew Luck didn't look at all assured, and Tom Savage must be a candidate for the worst ever NFL quarterback. Chicago tonight, so we are sure to see a couple of great quarterbacks on display :D

The Final is between me and Ben Edgell. Ben got off to a good start with 12 points from Toby Gerhart, which is slightly frustrating. I won the Semi Final by 7 Matt Forte yards in the game Matthew Turner mentioned above.

I am buoyed by Andre Johnson's return, who I left in last week despite being Inactive, has passed the Concussion Protocol checks, so he looks set to play this week.

I have a choice between Steven Jackson and Darren Sproles. Jackson will get ~6 points solidly, but Sproles will score ~1 or ~7 depending on whether or not he scores a TD on the few plays he gets.
