For the first time, it will be an all-KP championship game in one of our Expert Leagues. In the KP2 League, I edged John Hanson's team by a point and Greg whipped Scott Engel from ESPN to advance. Here are our teams. Feel free to chime in with any predictions.
GREG'S TEAM
QB -- Hasselbeck/Brady
RB -- Edge/Rudi Johnson/Foster/Shipp
WR -- DJax/Houshmandzadeh/Horn/Moulds/Finneran
TE -- Gonzalez
K -- Kasay/Elam
D -- Panthers
TOM'S TEAM
QB -- Carr/Fitzpatrick/Bulger
RB -- Barber/Dunn/McGahee/Pinner
WR -- Kennison/Bryant/Mason/Jurevicius/Lelie
TE -- Cooley
K -- Reed
D -- Broncos
Greg's team is now 10-5 and third in points in this league. My team is 9-5-1 and fourth in points.
So who do ya all like?

TOM your in big trouble with no qb. FITZPATRICK might have lost his job. CARR has a bad matchup , but you dont have a choice. GOOD LUCK

Eddie, don't assume the QBs on my roster now will be the QBs on my roster when the weekend comes.

Sorry Tom, I'm going with Greg on this one. Greg has much better receivers at this point and that Rudi/Edge combo is nice.

No need to apologize. This is another league where injuries have made an impact. Bulger/Leftwich were my QBs so obviously I've been forced to scramble there and this is another league where I lost Javon Walker so I've been mixing and matching WRs all year long (Kennison's been very good; grabbing Jurevicius when DJax went down proved to be huge and Mason's been solid and I had him and Jurevicius on my bench this week and still won).
I agree Greg has the better team on paper. We'll see what happens this weekend.

QB: edge to Greg unless Boller is still available
Greg +10 (tough not knowing who Tom will be adding)
RB: edge to Tom because of "Edge" decision as to how much he may or may not play, Tom + 8
WR: edge to Greg as Housh + Moulds and Finneran will likely be worth +10
TE: Cooley is hot but can he repeat that perf? Tom +4 as Cooley will find the end zone again and Gonzo will not
K: Greg +4
DEF: Tom +5
Greg by 7

LOL -- same here for me in the Gekko II, Tom.
The funniest part about it is that Carr actually outscored my other option (Brett Favre):
Carr 5.7
Favre 5.2
Truly pathetic...

So much of this is timing. Had I started Carr in a week where Barber and Cooley don't go off I'm sunk. But fortunately, I was able to get by with a bad QB because his start coincided with career games from Barber and Cooley. In another Expert League (KFFL Auction) I was first in points all season long and had a great team but then had my worst week of the season this week in the playoffs. The one week when I could least afford a bad week is the week I have one. Like so much in life, timing is everything in fantasy football.
