This team is the only team in the entire league with a team name. I'm not making this up, the rest of the teams are sorted by their owner/coach, but not the self proclaimed Minnesota State Screaming Eagles. So, what does this squad have in common with the rest of the state? A: They're losers. Year in and year out.. even when they're close, they really aren't. Brian managed to win 4 games last year.. in 14. That means he also managed to lose double digit games which can be difficult to do in fantasy sports. So, without further ado, lets take a look at this bottom feeder.

Scuba takes over for a depleted roster inherited from the Big Mattbowski. Mattbowski didn't leave much in the will, in fact, some people think that it's like having a long lost relative die and hoping there is something for you in the will.. only to find out that you're left with debt. Scuba's roster is coming off a 4-9 season including a beat down loss in their bowl game. Not shockingly, Scuba's roster is full of Michigan players whom The Big Mattbowski loved... perhaps, that's why they were so bad last year.

The first NCAA college preview for our 10 team league will take a gander at Slick Willy's line up. Ol' Slick Willy, a future Wisconsin Badger athletic booster, is the league's only 2 time champion. Pretty crazy, since the league is going into it's 3rd season. Willy hit a HR by drafting Tim Tebow, who led him to the promised land.. no, not the Garden of Eden, the championship the first 2 years. Last year, Willy knew he had to reload and shipped Tebow for younger players and draft picks. (Willy's God fearing fans took to him at a service in a foreign country.) Coming off a 6-8 season, he'll be looking to right the ship and get back into title contention so he doesn't flame out early in his coaching career.

It’s no secret that the NFL draft draws worldwide interest. In fact, next to the Super Bowl, it is the most watched football-related event of the year. Now, it’s true that some of this mass appeal can be attributed to scheduling: its late April arrival each year serves as an oasis of sorts to the average football fan in the barren emptiness that separates the end of the Super Bowl and the start of training camp. Plus, it is the one true event that merges the collegiate and professional levels–thus, unifying two enormous pools of fans. So, this is all to say that I fully understand the inherent appeal of the system. The yearly NFL Combine, however, I believe to be an entirely different animal.

Well, Pittsburgh won the Super Bowl again. Santonio Holmes won the MVP, which makes me happy as we are fellow Buckeyes from the same years. After the Super Bowl, I always get excited for the Draft (no, I don't care about the Pro Bowl). This year, however, I started gearing up for the Draft in about the first week of January. I don't know where the new focus came from, but I have been checking big boards/ espn.com/ watching a lot of College Football Live to get a glimpse about who will go where. I of course am a Bengals fan, so I've been looking to see who they would draft. I really think that OT is the best bet, despite what many people on bengals.com have been suggesting (RB, WR, DE). I can understand taking a DE if some of the OTs are off the board, but it simply won't help, as the O-Line was putrid last year. Stacy Andrews is worthless, overpaid, and very injured, thus I feel he won't be back. Levi Jones is best suited as a backup, as his age is starting to show. Anthony Collins and Nate Livings played well in fill-in spots, but they're untested.

The Buffalo Bills have continually given the faithful, blaze orange clad, Genny Light drinking fans in Buffalo a steady stream of heartache through bad management, coaching decisions and poor drafting. The trend has somewhat been reversed as of late but some of these decisions still loom large. These decisions also seem to rack up numbers in the loss column and continually prevent the Bills from making the playoffs. How the Bills choose who they draft and when is beyond me and somehow it leads to the losing trend. Thirty eight to be exact through the 2007 season.
