How to play Fantasy Football... for Non-Fantasy Football Players... (yes, that's a real group of people)

Step 1 - Join a League, ESPN FANTASY, YAHOO FANTASY
Step 2 - Draft, phone a friend, let the computer draft for you, etc.
Step 3 - Remember when games are, so you don't forget to set your team
Step 4 - Setting your Roster each week... this is where it gets tricky...

Injuries... depending on which site you're playing on... the players will have a Q, P or O next to their name. This is a good time to click on the little, yellow note icon next to the players name and see what his injury is. Remember, GM's and Head Coaches do NOT care about Fantasy Football and will announce injury updates as it benefits them the most! aka... keeping a players status under wraps until game-time... which is a surprise to the opponent.

Timing... there are Thursday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday games in the NFL!!! So make sure to set the notifications on your Fantasy League to remind you to set your roster before the FIRST game each week. If you only have players that play on Sunday... you can set them Sunday... Friday-Eve and Saturday days that will get you!

BYE Weeks... The first BYE week is Week 4... at least 4 teams each week have an "off-week" - you will need to either pick-up new players to slot them in your roster or use guys on your bench. As you play fantasy for years and years... you try to draft with the BYE week in mind. If your starting QB is on a Week 8 BYE, draft a QB that is not Week 8, etc.

Step 5... Try to win!!! Against all odds!! :)

We play for trash talking rights in my two leagues... it's good enough for me.

If you have to play for $$$... FanDuel is probably the route you want to take!!

Over-reaction Monday Week 8

GO COWBOYS!!! Cowboys lose to the Detroit Lions... 30-31 This game was a bit crazy. If you ever wanted to know about football, all it entails and how crazy people are for watching it and loving it... this a great game to watch! Bottom line... ~ Detroit Defense - they did a great job stopping our offense. Passing and running. They held Tony Romo (our QB) to 206 yards, which 110 of those were on 2 TD passes. And they held Joseph Randal (our RB) to 14 carries for 26 yards. ( aka... not good ) Ndamukong Suh - Defensive Tackle for the Lions, is a crazy man. Literally. He had his D ready today. ~ Matthew Stafford - Detroit's QB that is from Highland Park, played for UGA. He played well... The kid threw for 488 yards and had a very sneaky TD at the end of the game to win it for the Lions. Detroit's Offense completed 29 1st downs vs. Dallas' 13 1st downs. ( there are 4 downs in football... which means you have 4 chances to get the ball 10 yards, running or ...

Week 2: New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys ~ UNT beat Arkansas ~ Scooter Magruder

GO Cowboys!!! 0-1 (wins ~ losses) New York Giants vs. Dallas Cowboys ( away team ~ home team ) Sunday, September 16 @ 7:20 PM CST on NBC If you watched the game last week, where we lost to the Carolina Panthers, you have most likely decided to stop watching the rest of the season. It was a rough game. And it makes a lot of people think that first string players should get more reps during pre-season games so your Week 1 game isn't a scrimmage. So, during the " scrimmage ," that was a regular season game, Dak matched Cam Newton ( Carolina's QB ) in passing yards and was pretty close in accuracy. So where did Carolina win? Aside from wearing out our Defense... Newton had 13 carries for 58 rushing yards, allowing him to score one of their two TD's ( touchdowns ). Zeke ( our RB, running back ) had 15 carries for 69 rushing yards and one TD. Carolina out played us in the run game because they're not afraid to allow their QB to run. They converted more 1st ...
