I just read this on a "reputable" fantasy football site:

"Despite the team's claims that he is just an 'insurance policy,' Cedric Benson owners should be monitoring his every move."

That is such hype(rbole)!!! [smiley=pullleeeeeeeze.gif] I guess that's their psychological way of getting us to constantly return to the trough like addicts. [smiley=gonecrazy.gif] How about just producing a piece of quality commentary, not incessant one-line bullshit? I sure know I could do a hell of a lot better than that if this was my profession and not just a side thing. But, I digress... :-/
