Fantasy Island: Entering The Home Stretch, Are You Still In Contention?

miles_austin_extra_largeI’d like to start out this column by sending a shoutout to the millions of fantasy football GM’s who’s teams have fallen out of contention, but still continue to update their lineups and compete every week. Sometimes, that’s a tough row to hoe as a frustrating fantasy season can often be dismissed into oblivion; especially when there’s no money involved.

But you made a commitment at the beginning of the season to the other 11 owners in your league; to be competitive and provide a tough matchup for 14 weeks. When you walk away from your early-eliminated team, you take away the competitive nature of things for the rest of the league. If I faced you in Week 3, and you defeated me, but the team I’m tied for fourth place with faces you in Week 13 and you’re starting Michael Vick, Miles Austin and other injured players… you have done me a disservice.

Don’t be that guy, please.

READ THE REST…
