I'm actually kind of a politics geek too, so I'm totally signing up for this. This may be a sign of depression setting in - are there seriously like three more months before Yahoo opens up the fantasy football signups?

Here are the details on the deal. Does anyone really use Fanball for anything other than player news? I've never found any of their offerings to be all that compelling.

In case you hadn't heard the news yet, recently the Denver Broncos top receiver, Brandon Marshall, was injured in a freak "fast food bag" incident. According to Stats.com:

Brandon and I are in a keeper league that got its start in the '06 season. I'm the commish, and I've been pretty happy with the system we have in place for keepers. It's relatively conservative, it's fair, and it rewards good judgment on player potential while not going so far as to slam the door shut on teams who didn't make the best keeper decisions the previous season.

We're going with a somewhat more refined, cleaner look for our second season (which, by the way, is only 179 days away, not that I'm counting). Things seem to be working OK at the moment, but I'm sure we're bound to run into problems in the near future.

Apparently the Raiders have decided that Javon Walker is a better receiver than Randy Moss and have agreed to sign him to an insane 6 year, $55 million contract. If the Raiders couldn't get it done with the greatest receiver of this era, then why the hell would they think they could with Walker? How can they justify paying Walker so much money, especially considering the fact that he's coming off a season where he played in a whopping five games and that he's only started every game in a season once in the past six years? Many questions surround this move by the Raiders, but one thing is certain...they will be a bad team again next year, unless JaMarcus Russell turns into Tom Brady over night.
