Tom, do you also watch Battlestar Galactica on Sci-Fi? If you don't, you really should--it's the best show on television right now. I should clarify that BSG is the best show with new episodes that is airing right now. Other excellent shows that are either in repeats or between seasons:

(1) Deadwood
(2) The Sopranos
(3) Firefly

(4)--WEEDS on Showtime.

Wow, I step away to do some other stuff and you guys bombard me with questions.

OK, let's see ...

Draft Champions is at 2 p.m. ET. on Friday.

Last night's draft finished up around 21/2 hours which wasn't bad considering the earlier pauses we had to make. Were that not the case that would've easily been the quickest draft we've had yet. Not even close.

Boldin over Coles and Driver.

Bennett is the starter in Minnesota. There is no question -- except among fantasy owners who either have Moore, can't stand Bennett or both.

Bennett is the guy Tice wants to be his primary RB. That's always been the case. I've written about this before. Tice always goes back to Bennett. Always. Now once Bennett suffers an injury that knocks him out of at least a game or possibly several, that's when all hell will break loose in the Vikings' backfield.

Until then, Bennett is the guy.

The rest, shall we say, is history.

Currently, Firefly is on Sci-Fi, Friday nights at 7pm. "Firefly: The Complete Series" is also available on DVD. Everyone should really check this out -- it's one the best shows ever made. I kid you not.

There's also a movie called "Serenity" coming out next month (9/30/05) -- it's a continuation of the TV series.

Tom, in a league in which you start 3 rbs and 3 wrs whom do you keep Torrie Holt or Lamont Jordan?
