[/QUOTE]I wouldn't go out soliciting that wager but I wouldn't run from a fair one either, one with the stipulation that I can continue to field my starting lineup as it stands now. I know that sounds weak, but as I specifically said before, my team can only compete barring further injuries.

GG...is Greg paying you with Enron shares as he is Diesel?
You have become the resident injury reporter for us..THANK YOU!
And now you are making predictions on the favorites...how can I sign up for those shares

BTW, don't discount Warriors from Chicago League 5...his depth ISN'T great but I had to witness his starters perform weekly all season long.

Barring injuries.it's sometimes better to have a set starting lineup to not have to worry about playing the wrong players.

I can't wait to see how your predictions pan out. If you are right...I think I am heading out to Vegas to draft with you so we can hit the town together!

would anyone like to have an order of "depth" right about now....

Curtis Martin was downgraded to questionable with a knee injury after missing practice Friday.

snake...this is good news for you (and others).

Adrian Peterson's upside for that Bears offense is huge if Jones were to go down again (which could happen at any moment). The last week I played him he was worth 20 points.
how many times has he scored 20 points in his career? [/QUOTE]I don't know GG - maybe it was the only time I put him in the lineup

Yes, depth is overrated in a 3 week playoff when playing vs 42 other teams. I always thought that's a fact that's clear as day especially since there is precedence with previous winners. I don't remember your particular team last year but I have a feeling you won thanks to your main starters, not players that you rotated off your bench.

If so, that is the definition of LUCKY, or they must of had a hell of a draft the rest of the way!
