Ugh. Other than the Jets defense – who now has to face the Chargers offense – the only player I can double up on is Marion Barber, who did absolutely nothing last week. Reports on Barber are that he was able to practice. WTF? When was that a question? Ugh.

Being so far back and with no keepers, I think my best bet is to pick a team I think will go to the Superbowl and just pick all their players.

Given my propensity to forget to set my Fantasy rosters on time, i just thought i’d remind everyone to make sure you’ve chosen your players before the first game kicks off this afternoon.

I decided to go all Saints. So far so good.

Eh, it’s not head to head, so it isn’t really a problem. After all, you still did better than my bet on Packers -\> bet on Chargers

I’m almost tempted to leave the defense empty for this one.
