News, updates, and other assorted webernet detritus

Predicting QB success in fantasy football via YPA (Yards Per Attempt) and FAS (Functional Arm Strength). (MLive.com)
Bleacher Report's top 30 running backs. Included here because it's one of the rare rankings that doesn't have LT on top. Love for Westbrook is definitely in style this summer, but personally he still makes me nervous. (Bleacher Report)
It's the middle rounds of your draft that will determine the winner. (FloridaToday)
Blah, blah, Favre's a Jet, blah, blah. It's intensely satisfying to me to bury this story in the middle of a link post. Though I can't promise that Brandon isn't writing a breathless post about it right now. And honestly, I'll probably write an analysis at some point. But not today. (SI.com)
Ranking the best fantasy football magazines. Personally, I don't get buying something in print when fantasy football is such a dynamic hobby and injuries can change everything in an instant, but I guess some people like shiny things they can hold in their hands. (Detroit Free Press)
Five sure-fire busts that everyone should avoid, including, of course, Tom Brady. Wait, what? (Bleacher Report)

Quarterback SHENANIGANS!:
- Inhinnasnurse: There are 5 houses in five different colors In each house lives a different nationality. These 5 owners drink a certain beverage, smoke a certain brand of cigar and keep a certain pet. No owners have the same pet, smoke the same brand of cigar, or drink the same beverage. The CLUES: The...
Playoff leagues: Keeping the fantasy football season alive to the bitter end:
- frank m: I'm playing at ESPN. I'm also doing weekly tournaments at www.papersports.com.
- ffexchange: I've done my own for a while where we set a lineup each week and you can play anyone, but can only play them once. One third fantasy, one third survivor style pool, and one third guessing the games. Its not the same as the real thing, but going cold turkey isn't easy.
2008 Fantasy Football Playoffs MVPs:
- Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @e-roc: Just to update the situation, it looks like the PT Cruiser may have a flat tire (i.e. he's questionable with various injuries) and does not seem to be a good play this weekend. Go with Steve Slaton and hope he can find the endzone.
- Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @e-roc: Sorry for the delay, but was busy with Christmas. Hope yours is going well too. Anyways, in terms of your questions there...I'd go with Thigpen and Pierre Thomas. It looks like Boldin will be questionable for this weekend, so I'd keep him out of your lineup just in case. If Hixon and Ginn are...
- e-roc: @Brandon - Go figure I'm in the office and reading blogs... Anyway, I have both Manning & Wayne so my conundrum is this: QB - Thigpen @ Cin or Garcia v. Oak? RB - PT Cruiser v. CAR , Slaton v. CHI or McClain v. Jax? WR - Do you know if Boldin...
- Brandon (FFGeekBlog): @e-roc: I'm not generally in favor of starting players on teams that are playing for nothing and it seems that Indy is one of the worst culprits of this (maybe because they are always in the playoffs?) If you have someone like Peyton Manning, you may try to find a suitable replacement, as he'll probably...
