This is always an exciting time of year to be a writer, but as a Fantasy player, it can be hectic and disappointing. We're heading toward the NHL trade deadline, and sometimes owners can be left with a big hole when a player is rested with his old team, and then takes a day or two to report to his new club. It can turn a four-game week into a one- or two-game week, crushing owners in head-to-head cumulative formats. Click here to read the rest...

His production the following season was similar, although injuries kept him off the field for a significant amount of time. Then last season he had a breakout goal-scoring year with 15 goals to go with 15 assists. He had become the complete package as an attacker in the midfield, which usually equates to Fantasy dominance. Click here to read the rest...

The Combination of New Coaches and Labor Issues Makes Young Quarterbacks In Demand
By TheBigLead.com - Jason Lisk | Categories: NFL
The law of supply and demand dictates that a thing’s value increases if the demand is greater. The number of bidders raises the price. This year’s quarterback class will probably be a further indicator of that, as eight teams have new head coaches, and seven of them are first timers. New coaches like to have [...]
NFL Labor Negotiations: This One Shouldn’t Be About Winning or Losing
By TheBigLead.com - Jason Lisk | Categories: NFL
The hard negotiator sees any situation as a contest of wills in which the side that takes the more extreme positions and holds out longer fares better. He wants to win; yet he often ends up producing an equally hard response which exhausts him and his resources and harms his relationship with the other side. [...]

Jason Whitlock Has Opened A Cut With Hall of Fame Selectors
By TheBigLead.com - Jason Lisk | Categories: NFL
Jason Whitlock does not think too highly of the Pro Football Hall of Fame selection process. Before the vote, he foreshadowed his displeasure if Willie Roaf did not get in this year. After the selections came out, he took the process to task. It would have probably died right there with 24 hours, written off [...]
Your thoughts on the CBA situation
By Cory J. Bonini | Categories: Misanthropic Musings
It has been a crazy-busy week for me, so I'll keep this short and sweet. The NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement is on the verge of expiring, as you all know by now, but how long will it take for the owners and NFLPA to reach a mutual understanding? According to reports, the two sides are [...]

Today’s topic is brought to courtesy of “Reggie Dunlap”, who I judged to have the closest prediction the Super Bowl final score (GB 33, PIT 27) in the comments to my prediction post last Friday, where I offered to write on a topic of choice to the person who picked the score correctly in the [...]

Spring training is almost upon us! Although this is always a great time to be optimistic about the upcoming season, take spring news (and performance) with a grain of salt.
