Quarter Mile (2-2)
at the quarter mark i'm loving my team, absolutely loving it. i didn't think i would be competitive at all this year but so far i'm 2-2 (could be 3-1 if i didn't make another lineup snafu). the only thing that's really going to hurt is losing tiki barber. due to another bunked lineup in WK3, i had an extra player and i debated dropping tiki or justin mccareins. i dropped tiki. and now i'm a believer. my reasoning was that i had six backs on my roster and only three wides, and i reallly needed another WR to step up. plus, if mccareins plain sucked, i could at least dump him later for another WR prospect. i think i lost out on michael clayton by waiting so long.
tiki is going to have a great year. there's no slowing him down. last year's champ, the jammers, picked him up (the two winless teams before the jammers on the waiver wire weren't paying attention and let tiki slip) and now i'm facing him this week. i'm going to get beat by my own RB. this sucks. but i had to drop the savvy veteran because i had to remind myself that i'm rebuilding for next year. which could be a mistake since my team is looking like a dark horse contender this year.
right now my total points scored is solidly middle of the pack. which isn't great but far better than i anticipated. with aaron brooks as a steady QB, my RBs are really starting to pick up the slack, and that's been without tiki for the whole season (since i keep adding/dropping him). lee suggs is looking like he's ready to start, rudi johnson is rounding into form, and i still have deshaun foster, steven jackson and willis mcgahee sitting.
my WRs are very suspect beyond roy williams. larry fitzgerald has been a big disappointment and if not in a keeper league, his ass would be out of a job. ashley lelie is seemingly turning the corner one week and then dropping balls the next. oh well. and mccariens, i don't even want to talk about mccariens.
