Ah, so you’re still reading these, eh? It’s Week 17! I guess I will allow it just this once. Remember for next year, though, to get your league to end your fantasy season in Week 16. Too often teams have clinched all they can clinch by Week 17. It leads to teams not using their […]

In case you couldn’t get to my first column this week, let me reiterate my methodology for previewing games for championship time.

Cleveland at Pittsburgh – Yes! Reuben Droughns, Ben Roethlisberger and Bryant Gumbel! Thursday night football rocks.
