In an effort to get the word out to more of our listeners, we're discontinuing the blog and concentrating our efforts into the facebook group "The New and Improved 32 Teams The Real Fantasy Football Show". If you are not a member of the group, go to facebook, search the name and sign up. There will be the same useful Waiver Wire information, Game Picks, and the Three Way feature that has been housed here on the blog.
See you on Facebook!!

A Fantasy Football Solution to your NFL Lockout Blues
Fellow NFL Fans and Fantasy Football Players,
The offices of 32 Teams - The Real Fantasy Football Show have been gathering cobwebs lately due to the NFL lockout and the general malaise that has set in as a result. I turn on NFL Network and I see lawyers, a list of top 100 players of 2010, lawyers, legal analysts talking about injunctions, and more lawyers. It's discouraging. Last week, I received an email from CBSSportsline to renew one of my fantasy league's websites, and instead of whetting my appetite and exciting me for the season, I became embittered and angry. At this time last year, we were in full swing, covering QBs and RBs, uncovering sleepers like James Starks and prognosticating busts like Matt Leinart.
What can we do? The owners and players can't be foolish enough to let this go on and on, and thus cancel the entire season - can they? We at 32 Teams believe that they will come to an agreement, but it will be late in the process, resulting in a fast & furious free agency period and an abbreviated training camp. There may not be a pre-season, even. As a result, your time to prepare for your draft(s) will be shorter than what you may be used to. This will be true for your opponents as well. This got me thinking, how can I use this situation to dominate and win my league? Here's what we plan to do to help YOU win your league:
- Cover each team in-depth and completely, 3 teams per episode
- Discuss free agency possibilities, rookies, and how that informs each team's current roster
- Look at the schedule of Weeks 1-6 as well as the fantasy playoffs to determine fast starters and healthy closers
- Strategize about how to get the most out of your past knowledge of players' tendencies in this strike affected season
- Gather your thoughts, questions and ideas on the blog and facebook page and address them on air
We hope you will join us every week, as we prepare to do a lot with a little. Dominate your league - tune in to 32 Teams - The Real Fantasy Football Show. Go to www.32teamsfantasy.com and read about it as well on http://32teams.blogspot.com

Interview with Curt Menafee from FOX NFL Sunday
It was great to talk with Curt Menafee from FOX NFL Sunday the other day. He has a good thing going every fall when he hangs out with Jimmy, Terry, Howie and Strahan every Sunday, but did you know he also is a soccer nut? He's calling the semifinals and finals of the UEFA Champions League for FOX Soccer. He also does preseason games for the Seattle Seahawks. He was gracious enough to spend a few talking about that as well. An all around good guy, and he couldn't resist turning the tables and asking us a couple of questions as well. Check it out on www.32teamsfantasy.com
We'll be airing our post-draft show this week. Don't miss it!!

the Mad Dog
Earlier this week, the football world lost a great man, an ambassador for the game, a superlatively dedicated Miami Dolphin, and the most positive voice I've ever heard on sports radio.
Here's a nice tribute from Finsiders...

We're BAAAACK!
After listening to our draft preview episodes, we discovered that we weren't very happy with the content. Really, what do we know about all these players that you can't find out from Mel Kiper and Todd McShay?? And not only that, but by the time the draft got here, the information we were giving would be so outdated that it really seemed pointless to do it.
We've also been discouraged by the labor situation messing with our normal fantasy routine. However, we are BACK....as soon as there is something cogent to talk about. So, our next show will be the week after the NFL draft. We'll start looking at the skill position guys that we like to make an impact, and hopefully there will be progress in these labor negotiations so we can have a season.
Tune in to our latest rant about all this and more on our website...

NFC East Draft Preview
OK, so the Cowboys didn't make it to the Super Bowl in their own stadium, the Giants blew their post-season hopes by playing the worst 4 minutes of football I've ever seen, the Redskins have more problems than a math book, and the Eagles will be everyone's sexy pick for the NFC next season with Michael Vick at the helm. We talk about all your NFC East teams this week, including mock draft predictions, free agents, and coaching issues.

AFC Draft Preview
32 Teams is back from a Super Bowl hangover, ready to preview the NFL draft by division! We did shows all throughout the NFL playoffs, but I never blogged about it. Needed to take a break and have the real season come to an end. I wanted to savor what football there was, since there may be none for some time.
My advice to you is not to fear, 32 Teams is here!
Even though there is labor strife and the possibility of a work stoppage, there will still be a draft. Since there are no Free Agent moves to be made this off season due to the expiration of the NFL Collective Bargaining Agreement, the decisions made on draft day may have a longer reaching effect than normal.
Check out our first of 8 draft previews, beginning with the AFC East on our website www.32teamsfantasy.com

Week 17 - Three Way
I missed on Kitna and Philip missed on Reggie Wayne last week, but the rest of it was all good, including the sleepers. For the first time this season, and when it really counted, mind you, ALL the sleepers were good. I like that kind of action!
We will each give out our picks of a top QB, RB & WR that we see doing well that weekend (starter quality = top 10 in fantasy points at their respective positions that week). These aren't the obvious picks of Aaron Rodgers, Adrian Peterson and Andre Johnson, but more of the guys you have to dig deeper to find. This week, we took a different approach - take players from meaningless games (Min/Det, SD/Den & Ari/SF) for my three way and Philip decided to only take players from the StL/Sea game, so without further ado...
Here are our Three Ways for Week 17:
Heath:
QB- Shaun Hill
RB- Ryan Mathews
WR- Michael Crabtree
Philip:
QB- Charlie Whitehurst
RB- Steven Jackson
WR- Danny Amendola
More Sleepers: Emmanuel Sanders, John Skelton, Jason Snelling, Danny Woodhead, Jimmy Graham, Jared Cook, TJ Houshmandzadeh

Each week, Philip and I pick all the NFL games as part of the Buffalo Wild Wings All Stars League. These are straight up picks, no point spreads involved.

Here are our picks for Week 17 with the tiebreaker being the total score home-away for the SNF game since there are no more Monday night games:
NE, DET, PIT, KC, ATL, BUF, BAL, NO, NYG, HOU, SD, ARI, PHI, IND, GB, STL
STL 23 - SEA - 20 43 Total Points
Away 23 - Home 20
