Last year someone, I can't remember who it was (accidentally deleted my entire inbox) created a Fantasy Football League. Any plans to put another one together this year?

It was Modokmind.

As much as I would have loved to defend my title (and as much as it hurts to give up Antonio Brown as my keeper), I needed to bow out because managing a FF team requires more time than I can afford.

Sadly, I think bware and Fryer agreed with me:

If modokmind or anyone else wants to restart the league, I would happily transfer my team to another owner (I also had David Johnson and Devanta Freeman as potential second keepers).

Does it include Super Bowl MVP, retired Minnesota Viking quarterback, Brett Farve?

/\/\/\ Big Ben and Drew Brees. But, TBH, I would still pick a retired Favre over about half the QBs in the league.

^ How about NFL superstar Vinny Testaverde as a backup? I think Testaverde means "green balls" in Spanish; he should be good.

^ Thanks! Embarrassing, I am a big fan.

At least I got Testaverde correct.

Edit: To change right to correct. What is the code for strikeout?

^ I know I'm a loser. I mean that cool computer code thing that puts a line through words you did not mean to say or speeled wrong and replaced with the correct speeling It usually starts with something like [so].

That kind of strikeout.

I can't help with the strikethrough thing. I've used it only with Microsoft Word.

^ What happened to Russell Maryland? He was clearly a better pick.

He did very well. Not a HOFer but made All-Pro a couple of times and got three rings.

Well, last night I "helped" (i.e. did the draft for) one of my friends and I'm pleased to announce that, for the second year in a row, I am the proud owner of the consensus #1 draft pick, Antonio Brown.

Go Stillers!

I am all for doing it again

Shoot me a pm if you want to do this. I will set up the league

As much as I'm going to miss the player analysis and the waiver wire (and not miss agonizing over the performance of a single player in a game between two teams I don't care about), it's that time of the year so ... Happy New NFL Season, everyone!
