I've recently become aware of the fact that you don't understand what I'm saying. Not sure if it's attention problems or literacy but it doesn't really matter.

I think you'll do well with Emmitt Smith in your starting lineup. I wish I had him.

Indeed - but I will have you know that I didn't take him ahead of WR

You better fear Richie Anderson as RB2! And if he dont scare you, then Troy Hambone may!

I could have had one of those top WR, I chose Gonzo instead... my gamble is that I can abuse matchups and waiver wire to patch WR together. If I'm right I'll be in good shape. If I'm wrong, then I'll be competitive.

Format H2H gives RB heavy teams advantage over WR heavy especially during bye weeks. RBs simply touch the ball more often and are more consistent. Now the total points factor may bail out WR heavy teams or at least close the gap.

3 RBs= consistent
4 WRs= explosive or weak (never know which)

Picking RBs isn't really hard this category nets about an 80% or better success rate. While outside of the top 10-12 WRs the success rate of picking these chumps is about 15%. Simply look at the rosters in your league at WR 12 teams are all thinking they picked the right guys and fact is we won't really know till about week 10 will we. Now look at the RB team and you know who is a contender now. Example- Someone drafted Reggie Wayne to be a #3 or yikes #2 WR and felt like it was a solid pick, but this morning I'll bet they feel a bit different about that (and should he has 4 solid NFL games ever 2 with Harrison out).

Of course many factors will determine the overall champ, but RB heavy teams will prevail more than not in H2H competition,
