The only restriction is that I'd like the team names to be a place name (real or fictional) and a noun. Also, I can switch to live draft if there is an interest. BUT, if you still want to participate and can't make a live draft, the live draft for you would be done via autopick (with your pre-draft list or Yahoo!'s)-- which is the default anyway. If you need help in how to sign up for this, just let me know. And, it's free to play.

Oh, and Woods has good hands. I'm a bit concerened about the hammy, but not too much. I think he'll surge up the depth chart soon into the season.

Jamal Lewis will not play any football games during his legal trial. Estimates for the trial range from one-to-three weeks.

That's why I skipped Lewis and planned to not draft him under any circumstances. Somehow, I think this trial is going to go longer than expected. And what hearings and prep time?

[GraniteStateConservative]

Yeah, that would have been my feelings had I been in a position to choose him or someone else.

Tiki Barber might want to kick it up a notch. In the Giants' first preseason game tonight against KC, Ron Dayne went for 118 yds and 2 TDs, averaging 10.7 yds/carry.

Those 38 lbs. must have been some kind of boat anchor on his career. And no rust from being out of the line-up all last year.

I'm glad I was able to turn my Shipp bad luck in League II into a pick-up of Dayne if he keeps playing close to this way in the regular season.

[bkwells]

I saw parts of the game... Dayne looked pretty good!

Eagles running back Correll Buckhalter probably will miss the season after tearing the patella tendon in his right knee in the first quarter of Philadelphia's preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens on Friday night.

The fourth-year pro sat out the 2002 season after tearing the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee in mini-camp. The Eagles were counting on Buckhalter and third-year pro Brian Westbrook to share the running duties after Duce Staley signed with Pittsburgh in the offseason.

Buckhalter collapsed to the ground, writhing in pain after a 2-yard gain. He left the field on a cart and X-rays revealed the torn ACL.

A fourth-round pick from Nebraska in 2001, Buckhalter had 586 yards rushing and averaged 4.5 yards a carry that season. He ran for 542 yards and eight TDs last year.

The trio of Westbrook, Staley and Buckhalter produced 1,818 yards rushing, 83 catches and 27 touchdowns (20 rushing, seven receiving) last season.

The Eagles lost rookie seventh-round pick Bruce Perry to a season-ending shoulder injury in the preseason opener, leaving second-year pro Reno Mahe as Westbrook's backup.

[Skooz]

Man, I hate that. I am a Husker fan and have always liked Buckhalter. He was starting to get some carries and was beginning to come into his own. Too bad.

[GraniteStateConservative]

It's funny that this happened the day Willis McGahee bitched about PT. I think the Bills would keep Willis and move Henry before doing the opposite. Denver might use this to thin out their logjam at RB, too.

[GraniteStateConservative]

I'll be away on vacation for a week in case any of you were planning to contact me regarding the League.

[GraniteStateConservative]

Set your rosters!

[demlosers]

Set.

[demlosers]

Are you ready to lose today? ;-)

[demlosers]

Arrrg. Damn you Portis...

[GraniteStateConservative]

You're in a close game, too.

5 of my positions haven't even played, yet. I'm not worried of losing Week 1, yet. I was seriously burned by benching Brady. I won't do it next week against the Cardinals. I can assure you. I'm hurting in general because I have to start Jerry Porter since I was hurt by Boldin. I need Moss to blow up today, though.

Besides, I'll crush you in Week 3.

: )

[demlosers]

Right now I'm down by 16, BUT...however, I have 3 players left for MNF: Farve, Muhammad, and the Carolina D.

I think I can make up those points easily.

At the moment, I see you are down 40+ points...*snicker*

[demlosers]

I see Culpepper is having a monster day. Moss at least got you 2 tds

Arrrg. Damn you Portis...

You must not have been playing one of my teams. If you were you'd be cursing both Portis and McNabb. >:)

[demlosers]

My TWO backs Martin and Tomlinson are going to tear this league up. Hehee.

[GraniteStateConservative]

Martin's having a great year. He's on pace to lock in his spot in the HOF.
