I'll put you on auto draft, kicker, kicker, D, D. Let's see where the MLB gets you then :greengrinQuote:

Nothing is more important than the hibs.net nfl fantasy draft Scott! :greengrin
He's just getting his excuses in early this year! :greengrinQuote:

It is currently the new big thing in professional football, pro-zone, 1st team analysts - the lot but most of the coaches/managers in todays game don't have a ****ing clue how to use it. I have met so many that employ friends of mine to analyse the game or do the sports science (another bug bear) yet they don't actually understand how to use it properly it is so frustrating!
Most of the pro players I have met (including premier league winners) usually make out that the opposition analysis reports go in the bin anyway.
Sorry, wee bit of a rant.
It's not even the MLB! I'm tied up with training and games for our team in the British league :greengrinQuote:

The guy Billy who does the Easter Rd tour told us Mowbray introduced prozone to Hibs; in that respect as well as preparation and allround culture change he was miles ahead of anyone else he'd seen, apparently. Im not sure if the software is still in use or gathering dust under successive managers, mind you...Quote:

Was on the NFL website earlier and noticed our league isn't showing up in the fantasy section. Is anyone else getting this? :confused:
think we need to wait on our league administrator re-activating the league, is that Gatecrasher by any chance :wink:Quote:

You could point out that he runs well but im not sure I want the guy thats guranteed 61 million out there at risk of serious injury.
I can only hope Wilson hits the Seahawks even harder.
While his stats arent great reading he is obviously doing something right! Myself, I reckon he'll get better as he gets older.
