Each day this week, the women here at Playing the Field will be
bringing you our best fantasy football advice. We won't do it on a
video in skimpy clothes. We won't do it groping each other (at least
not that you can see). But you can rest assured that the advice you
find here comes from actual female fans who have actually played
fantasy ball. A few of us are even champions.Today Holly brings you Tight Ends.
Brandon Webb
continues to dominate the National League, picking up his major
league-leading 17th victory Sunday after tossing six solid innings to
lead the Arizona Diamondbacks to a 6-1 win over the Atlanta Braves.
In the most recent issue of ESPN the Magazine, there's an article about snack-sized Red Sox second baseman Dustin Pedroia. The story is illustrated with a crowd shot--taken at last year's World Series--that shows a girl holding a handmade "Team of Dustin-y" sign. That girl? Me.
He's sexy, he's fluent in four languages, and his favorite 'bling' isn't some 20 pound diamond stud in his ear, but a sentimental pendant from his dad. Ladies I ask you...what's not to love about Saints linebacker Jon Vilma? Read More

Let It Go, CHB Dan Shaughnessy is having a hard time letting Manny Ramirez go. With CHB's pet topic on the other side of the country, he's feeling some intense pangs of sadness. I'd also be willing to bet he'll still be writing inflammatory articles about Manny 15 years from now.
UCLA Quarterback Injuries: An Unsettling Compendium [EDSBS]
UCLA's Ben Olson has re-injured his surgically repaired foot...while faking a handoff. Olson joins a long line of Bruins signal-callers with ridiculous injuries. Who can forget Troy Aikman's hospital stay following the ingestion of a packet of silica gel?
Dear Manny, Let me preface this by saying that watching you play
(and act like a total 'tard) has been the highlight of Red Sox baseball
for me over the last seven years. The peeing in the monster, running
out to left field with a water bottle in your pocket...and my ultimate
favorite, Mannyism, which you said on one of the greatest nights of my
life, and what I want etched on my headstone someday: "I don't believe
in no curses. I believe you make your own destination
Nationals fans either loved or hated Frank Robinson's managing style, but all agree the way he was let go was quite unceremonious for a legendary man of baseball. Will he ever return for the much promised "Frank Robinson Day" at National Park to honor his career and role in bringing the Expos turned Nats to DC? His answer: "Close to never!"
Apparently trading junior Griffey wasn't enough of a splash for Walt Jocketty and the Reds this time around. On Monday, the team dealt Adam Dunn to the Arizona Diamondbacks for minor league pitcher Dallas Buck and two players to be named later.
For football fans, the shimmering turf, catching the subtle twitch of a lineman's leg, and knowing before the replay airs if the receiver was still inbounds shines brighter than any diamond ring.
And I�m going to continue to take it because what else can I really
do? Last night is the perfect example of why the Cardinals should�ve
done SOMETHING at the trade deadline for the bullpen. Chris Carpenter
looked amazing. Granted, he only went 5 innings, but he gave up three
hits and no walks, striking out two. For a guy�s second start since
April 1st, 2007, that�s awesome.
