More Week 6 linkage

We got a solid hail storm here in Brooklyn last night around Monday Night Football game time - kudos to those fans who stuck it out at the stadium since it seemed rather intense out there. Also intense? Some of the injuries that are plaguing fantasy teams - 2010 has felt like a particularly tricky year just in the lack of serious fantasy consistency and health from the usual suspects. So let's take a look at some waiver wire suggestions and other links for this Tuesday.

Waiver wire lovin':
Or try a few early Week 6 positional rankings, either from CBSSports.com or LestersLegends.com (the latter goes to RBs but other positions are linked off that page).

Tons of injuries and they want to add two more games. I'm all for more football, but I'd rather watch 16 games of Aaron Rodgers than 14 of him and four of Matt Flynn.

Thanks for the link. Hope you and the baby are doing great.

How would 18 games reduce the number of times you see players like Aaron Rodgers? If anything, you'd see more games with those players in the regular season because they have more time to recover (think Sidney Rice or Jermichael Finley, who are both expected to return near the cusp of the playoffs).

But two games added would not reduce the number of games they play... That doesn't make sense (unless, theoretically, those last two games result in an injury that carries over until the next year).

Labor Day FF links

Happy long weekend! Here's hoping most of you are free to enjoy the 3-day weekend and the relaxation and fun that comes with it. I spent my Sunday participating in 3 fantasy football drafts scattered throughout the day and night, but I think I've finally wrapped up my drafts for the year. So like many of you I'm now turning my attention to the Week 1 games! But before we get to some player rankings and prep for Week 1, I want to make sure that all you experts out there are aware of the upcoming deadline for the annual accuracy contest that I run with the Fantasy Sports Trade Association. I compare preseason positional rankings from experts to the final outcome of the fantasy season to see which site had the most accurate preseason rankings, and this year's deadline is fast approaching: September 9th by kickoff. Check out the info on the FSTA site for more details and be sure to e-mail me your submissions. Now, onto Week 1! First up, let's get to some of this

A hiatus

Update:  It is with a very heavy heart that I tell you all that yesterday, August 30th, I delivered our stillborn daughter, Caroline Mary. This has been an almost surreal and definitely heartbreaking experience and I appreciate the support in each and every one of your notes. Caroline will be honored and loved always. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your thoughts and prayers - they mean the world to our family. I have been a very poor blogger this month and feel I owe you all an explanation, particularly as this is crunch time for draft prep. I hope this is not too personal of a look into my life since I know most of you are just here for the football. I am nearly 18 weeks pregnant and we have learned that our baby (a little girl!) has triploidy, a chromosomal abnormality that means she has three copies of every chromosome instead of the normal two. The doctors have explained that it's a completely random occurrence and fairly rare that she has made it this far along, but tha
