Today was the workplace Fantasy Football draft. I've not played for a few years after every single first round pick I made (4 years running) blew out their ACL or suffered a similar season ending injury within the first few weeks.

8 person league. Good points for yards, 4 for throwing td, 6 for others. Minus for turnovers, plus for D turnovers, .5 pts for receptions. QB, WR, WR, RB, RB, Flex, TE, K, Def

Drafting 5 of 8 I snagged (in order of draft):

Willie Parker
Brian Westbrook
Reggie Bush
Roy Williams (det)
Lee Evans
Antonio Gates
McNabb
Baltimore Defense
Adrian Peterson (min)
Big Ben
Jericho Cotchery
Gostkowski
Devin Hester
Matt Leinart


So generally a lot of middling guys who will need to all pull in the right direction for things to go well. The rest of the league is fairly mediocre as well, though tend a little towards the all or nothing sort of teams. If their key RB goes down they're fubar'd.

And if Willie Parker suffers the first on field decapitation in league history, well... you'll know who to blame.
