T16 16 Brett Favre Minnesota 40 63 pts

Unless Ovie has a major injury there is no way he won't bring home the MVP for the third time in his already great career.Not only is he in my top spot for this year but I already have him penciled in for many years to come.. But I will flat out say that they are built from inside my head only partly based on rumors of actual players that may be on the move in the next week or so...Or sometimes I will build a trade in my head trying to be as fair as possible to both teams that I might have in mind for a 'fantasy trade proposal' and then might ask myself if the two prospective teams involved in this fantasy trade proposal might actually seriously look at a deal of this 'self-admitted craziness and magnitude'? Could the deal actually have the real wings to fly?Now having listened to the Fan590 over the years (a very popular sports radio talk show in Toronto), I have heard hundreds of ridiculous 'trade proposals' that are so 'homer based' and/or so one-sided in one team's favor, that I fully understand why many talk radio shows including the Fan590 discourage this type of 'waste of time verbiage'...and why even The Bleacher Report might want to do the same.But assuming that we have an intelligent and educated fan base here that is willing to keep this type of 'fantasy activity' within reason and legitimate boundaries indeed, this will probably be the first and last time I conduct such a venture this year but some of you (one of you) was clamoring for 'trade talk' in my last article...Assuming all of this, and matching up the dollars (partly disregarding the long term nature of some of the contracts), and reading this small article this morning from February 9th, in The Detroit News.......................................................................................................... Wouldn’t that spark a friendly competition?Photo credit This article is also featured on lenNY's Yankees. Sheamus was mocked for his pale skin and hair colour, but he didn't give in to pressure and went on to dominate Raw with the exact same attitude which would eventually create history.

1 overall pick in last year's draft had he not decided to stay with Oklahoma one more year to try and win a National Championship. Mitchell, on the other hand, wasn't even projected to get pick until somewhere in the third or fourth round.The big question is, what is going through Davis' mind?It's like trying to figure out what is going on in the television show LOST .Too many questions, and not enough answers.We all know that he loves players with speed and ridiculous physical attributes, but at what cost?Drafting both Heyward-Bey and Mitchell in 2009, where perhaps two ofthe most ineffective draft choices that any team could have made.Heyward-Bey has nine receptions for 124 yards and one touchdown.Mitchell had 13 total tackles, 1.5 sacks and two fumble recoveries.Both did not have an impressive rookie campaign at all especially seeing as how the Raiders were predicted to pick receiver Michael Crabtree, who despite holding out with a contractdispute still managed to end the season with 48 receptions for 625 yards and two touchdowns in 11 games.Now comes the arduous task of predicting what Davis and the Raiders may do in 2010, which is no small task.They may go back to a more normal selection and perhaps go with a very conservative pick in choosing an offensive tackle like Rutgers' Anthony Davis, who fits the "freak of nature" mold with his physical attributes that Davis loves so much.Then there are the possibilities that Davis will pick a player from left field like quarterback Tim Tebow who is easily one of the most physically gifted athletes in this draft class.Also, one would have to consider defensive end Brandon Graham out of Michigan who lit up the Senior Bowl and is another who fits that mold of player Davis likes.Finally, you would have to wonder, who Davis mayjust pick out of a hat like he seemingly did with Mitchell.Whichever route the Raiders go, they really need to consider going with the non-sexy pick in a lineman on either the offensive or defensive side of the ballbecause Davis cannot afford to have his high drafts picks not make any impact in 2010.. Party Attendees...No Boozer tonight! Yay for LaMarcus Aldridge! Another night without getting dominated by a better, more physical, and polished power forward! Scary thing is that he now has to go against the guy that was going to be his backup. I guess we get to see what could have been with Paul Milsap.Still no Batum in the starting lineup which I guess is fine as long as he's logging significant minutes. Nothing is more frustrating than watching the Martell Webster we've grown accustomed to over the last 4 years. Yes, I'm saying his streak of decent games a month ago was not something to get used to.News of Travis Outlaw returning just after the All-Star break has surfaced. People are excited about that? As the back up 4, would you rather have guys like Cunningham and Howard that just care about rebounding and making physical plays or a guy more concerned with floating around the perimeter jacking up pull-ups? For a team lacking toughness and needing guys flying to the boards more than ever, give me the rookie and the elderly chap.Roy back Saturday! Maybe.On Tap...Dallas security "belligerent" and completely worthless. Jason Quick Batum's play has been almost "perfect." Geoffrey Arnold Outlaw back after All-Star break? Jason Quick Full game preview from Dave. Although Bradshaw, Aikman, Swann, Harris, and Smith had amazing careers and showed the ability to rack up big numbers in the big game, no duo put up the dominance that Montana and Rice did.

However, how do you account for Palmer?s loss in velocity and overall accuracy? It?s possible that we?ve seen the best of Carson Palmer. T-16 (16) Brett Favre, Minnesota, 40 (63 pts). Of course, the easiest way is by geography, though if the Big Ten split it up with by going east/west, it would cause an imbalance similar to what the Big XII has. Regardless of the reason, it was a gutless move by a man with more than enough gut to spare.Some people have said that the benching was a genius move. Psst Come here A little closer Don't want to say it too loud Might get in the wrong ears. More importantly, this performance laid to rest, if just until the next game, fans' fears in Columbia over shot selection.Often times this year, especially on the road, when finding themselves in the middle of an opposition's runs, the Tigers have elected for the quick three instead of the natural one that comes off their patented "fastest forty minutes."Depending on how the rest of conference play shakes out, the Tigers could face any number of opponents in the Big 12 tournament.
