The injury isn't considered serious, however, and Lewis is expected to start this weekend's game against Washington.  Steve McNair, QB TEN - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/19/01 McNair was able to play with an injury to his right thumb, but the Tennessean says he will probably miss some practice time this week. He should still be able to play in the team's next game.  Packers, DT GB - Uran Man Updated 11/19/01 Safety LeRoy Butler suffered a fractured left shoulder blade during Sunday's game against Atlanta. He is out indefinitely and could miss the remainder of the season. Chris Akins will likely take over the starting duties in Butler's absence.  Steve McNair, QB TEN - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/19/01 McNair was able to play with an injury to his right thumb, but the Tennessean says he will probably miss some practice time this week. He should still be able to play in the team's next game. Az-Zahir Hakim, WR STL - Luccis Losers Updated 11/19/01 Hakim left Sunday's game against New England with an ankle injury. X-rays were negative, and Hakim is listed as day to day.  Reggie Wayne, WR IND - Free Agent Updated 11/19/01 Wayne suffered a sprained knee on Sunday. His current status is day to day. Rod Smith, WR DEN - Blue Balls Updated 11/19/01 Smith (ankle) could not finish Sunday's game. His status for Thursday's game against Dallas is unclear. Terance Mathis, WR ATL - Dont Mess Updated 11/19/01 Mathis has by far his best game of the season, catching seven passes for 70 yards against Green Bay. He suffered a mild concussion in the game, but he's expected to be fine for this weekend's contest at Carolina.  Jackie Harris, TE DAL - Free Agent Updated 11/19/01 Harris suffered a strained right hamstring during Sunday's game against Philadelphia. He did not return to the contest, and is listed as day to day.  Frank Sanders, WR ARI - Dont Mess Updated 11/19/01 Sanders had a huge game against Detroit on Sunday, catching seven passes for 127 yards and a touchdown. He injured his hamstring in the game, however, and is listed as day to day.  Quincy Carter, QB DAL - Free Agent Updated 11/19/01 Carter feels as though his hamstring has healed enough that he's ready to return to action. However, the Cowboys will start Ryan Leaf for a few more weeks before Carter gets his starting job back. The team wants to evaluate Leaf in a few games this season to determine if he'll have any trade value in the offseason.  James Jackson, RB CLE - Uran Man Updated 11/19/01 Jackson told the Cleveland Plain-Dealer it was a coach's decision not to use him against the Ravens. Jackson had been suffering from an ankle injury, but reports prior to gametime had indicated he might have been able to play. With the sudden emergence of Benjamin Gay, Jackson's Fantasy value might drop greatly. Ryan Leaf, QB DAL - Free Agent Updated 11/19/01 Leaf had another terrible outing this weekend, but the Dallas Morning News is reporting that he'll remain the team's starting quarterback for the time being. However, he's no better than waiver wire fodder in Fantasy Football.  Kevin Lockett, WR WAS - Free Agent Updated 11/19/01 Lockett left Sunday's game against Denver in the first quarter due to a rib injury. His status for next week's game against Philadelphia is uncertain at this time.  Tony Banks, QB WAS - Free Agent Updated 11/19/01 Banks, who suffered a concussion during Sunday's game against Denver, told the Washington Post that there's a "definite possibility" he would be ready in time for next weekend's game against Philadelphia. Kent Graham would start if Banks is unable to play, but neither QB is an attractive Fantasy option against the Eagles.  Emmitt Smith, RB DAL - Team Dick Updated 11/19/01 Smith left Sunday's game against Philadelphia with a sprained knee. However, he is expected to be in the starting lineup when Dallas faces Denver on Thanksgiving Day.  Larry Foster, WR DET - Free Agent Updated 11/19/01 Foster suffered an apparent leg injury during Sunday's game against Arizona. He is listed as day to day. Desmond Howard, WR DET - Free Agent Updated 11/19/01 Howard suffered a shoulder injury during Sunday's win over Arizona. He did not return to the game, and is listed as day to day.  Bert Emanuel, WR DET - Blue Balls Updated 11/19/01 Emanuel suffered a knee injury during Sunday's game against Arizona. He is listed as day to day.  Muhsin Muhammad, WR CAR - Orange Roughy Updated 11/18/01 Muhammad sprained his left shoulder in Sunday's game against the 49ers. His status for the Week 11 game against Atlanta is unclear. Mike Anderson, RB DEN - Really Rottens Updated 11/18/01 Anderson rushed for only 31 yards on 13 carries against the Redskins. Olandis Gary carried the ball 10 times for 28 yards. It is apparent Anderson is no longer worthy of a starting spot on Fantasy teams, and Gary will continue to see some work at his expense. Michael Westbrook, WR WAS - C-Dawg's Boyz Updated 11/18/01 Westbrook caught nine passes for 104 yards and a TD at Denver. Opposing defenses are focusing on rookie Rod Gardner, and Westbrook is getting open often after starting the year slowly. Jake Plummer, QB ARI - Really Rottens Updated 11/18/01 Plummer threw for 334 yards, four TDs and was intercepted once by Detroit. Such stellar performances are rare for Plummer, who may not have a better game this season. Michael Pittman, RB ARI - Dont Mess Updated 11/18/01 The awful Detroit defense limited Pittman to 81 rushing yards on 23 carries. Don't start Pittman in any upcoming weeks unless your team is very thin at RB.. David Sloan, TE DET - Free Agent Updated 11/18/01 Sloan caught two TD passes for a total of three yards at Arizona. If you are desperate for help at TE, consider Sloan, who always gets regular looks from Charlie Batch. Lamont Warren, RB DET - Free Agent Updated 11/18/01 Warren rushed for 32 yards and a TD at Arizona and caught 11 passes for 64 yards and a score. The Lions will continue to feature Warren on third downs and near the goal line as a receiver, making him a good Fantasy backup for the rest of the year. Warrick Dunn, RB TB - President Taft Updated 11/18/01 Dunn caught 12 passes for 138 yards against the Bears, but he rushed for only 12 yards and fumbled twice. Don't count on Dunn for consistently good Fantasy numbers during the next few weeks. He can be explosive, but he is also erratic. Keyshawn Johnson, WR TB - Orange Roughy Updated 11/18/01 Johnson caught 12 passes for 89 yards against the Bears, but he failed to get in the end zone again. Don't depend on Johnson down the stretch unless your team is very thin at wideout. David Terrell, WR CHI - Really Rottens Updated 11/18/01 Terrell caught one pass for 15 yards at Tampa Bay. The rookie wideout is not consistent enough to start for most Fantasy teams. Marty Booker, WR CHI - Luccis Losers Updated 11/18/01 Booker caught seven passes for 165 yards and three TDs at Tampa Bay. In his third season, Booker has become a superb Fantasy wideout. He is a player you must start every week, no matter what matchup he faces.  Plaxico Burress, WR PIT - DRock's Beaatchs Updated 11/18/01 The Jaguars limited Burress to one catch for 13 yards. The second-year receiver has still not proven he can be a reliable Fantasy player. LaDainian Tomlinson, RB SD - DRock's Beaatchs Updated 11/18/01 Tomlinson put up decent rushing numbers against Oakland, posting 68 yards and a touchdown. His overall statistics have been down in recent weeks, however, which may have something to do with the fact that he held out for the entire preseason.  Hines Ward, WR PIT - Team Chick Updated 11/18/01 Ward caught nine passes for 112 yards and a TD against Jacksonville. While he doesn't score often, Ward has become a very solid receiver for Pittsburgh this year, and he will always post respectable totals. Doug Flutie, QB SD - President Taft Updated 11/18/01 Flutie's recent struggles continued against Oakland, throwing for only 98 yards on Sunday. Unless he faces a good matchup, starting Flutie is becoming somewhat of a gamble.  Stacey Mack, RB JAC - DRock's Beaatchs Updated 11/18/01 Mack was held to six rushing yards on eight carries at Pittsburgh. He has not been a reliable back for the Jaguars or Fantasy owners this season. Rich Gannon, QB OAK - Team Chick Updated 11/18/01 Gannon had a solid outing against San Diego, throwing for 311 yards and four touchdowns. He's one of the top five Fantasy quarterbacks in the league and is a must-start every week.  Jerry Rice, WR OAK - Team Chick Updated 11/18/01 Rice had a huge game on Sunday, catching eight passes for 131 yards and three touchdowns against San Diego. Rice may not be an every-week starter in smaller leagues, but he can certainly still put up huge Fantasy numbers when the matchup is right.  Tony Banks, QB WAS - Free Agent Updated 11/18/01 Banks was carted off the field in the second quarter of Sunday's game at Denver with a concussion. He was replaced by Kent Graham. Brett Favre, QB GB - Dont Mess Updated 11/18/01 Favre threw for 262 yards and two TDs against the Falcons, but he was intercepted three times and lost a fumble. Despite some inconsistent play in recent weeks, Favre's potential for big games makes him a must-start every week. Corey Bradford, WR GB - Free Agent Updated 11/18/01 Bradford caught three passes for 117 yards against Atlanta. The Green Bay wideout is still too inconsistent to be considered a solid Fantasy player. Chris Chandler, QB ATL - Orange Roughy Updated 11/18/01 Chandler started at Green Bay, and threw for 352 yards, two TDs and two interceptions. He remains a good Fantasy backup when healthy. Bob Christian, RB ATL - Free Agent Updated 11/18/01 Christian rushed for 40 yards and caught five passes for 62 yards at Green Bay. The Falcons are using him more often, and Christian makes a good backup RB right now. Elvis Grbac, QB BAL - Blue Balls Updated 11/18/01 Grbac threw for 261 yards, two TDs and was intercepted four times by the Browns. The veteran QB has been a big disappointment this year and should not start for most Fantasy teams. Jason Brookins, RB BAL - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/18/01 Brookins rushed for 89 yards on 21 carries against the Browns. The rookie is a servicable, yet unspectacular Fantasy player who should give you some occasional TDs down the stretch.  Tim Couch, QB CLE - Team Chick Updated 11/18/01 Couch threw for only 144 yards and was intercepted three times at Baltimore. The Cleveland QB appears to be a risk even as a Fantasy backup right now. Benjamin Gay, RB CLE - Free Agent Updated 11/18/01 Gay saw his first extensive action of the year, carrying the ball 18 times for 56 yards and a TD at Baltimore. He displayed good vision and lateral quickness, and Gay is definitely worth picking up if you need help at RB.  James Jackson, RB CLE - Uran Man Updated 11/18/01 Jackson (ankle) did not play at Baltimore. Benjamin Gay and Jamel White shared carries in his place.  Lamar Smith, RB MIA - Texas Terminators Updated 11/18/01 Smith rushed for only 53 yards on 19 carries against the Jets. Smith appears to be mired in mediocrity right now, and he is a risky start unless you lack depth at RB. Chris Chambers, WR MIA - Texas Terminators Updated 11/18/01 The rookie wideout caught only two passes for 25 yards against the Jets. Chambers is still too inconsistent to start for most Fantasy teams. Santana Moss, WR NYJ - Grid Iron Goons Updated 11/18/01 Moss made his pro debut on Sunday, but did not catch a pass and was stopped for a six-yard loss on his one carry. The rookie has missed too much time to make a Fantasy impact this season.  Richard Huntley, RB CAR - Orange Roughy Updated 11/18/01 Huntley actually had a good outing against San Francisco, posting 94 scrimmage yards and a touchdown. However, he's far too inconsistent to start on a weekly basis.  Chris Weinke, QB CAR - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/18/01 Weinke started Sunday's game against San Francisco after missing last week's game due to a shoulder injury. He put up decent numbers, throwing for 177 yards and two touchdowns in Carolina's 25-22 OT loss.  Wayne Chrebet, WR NYJ - Dont Mess Updated 11/18/01 Chrebet did not catch a pass at Miami. The Jets' wideout is no longer worthy of a starting spot on Fantasy teams.  Garrison Hearst, RB SF - Really Rottens Updated 11/18/01 Hearst had another strong game, posting 113 scrimmage yards against Carolina. His comeback from a serious ankle condition is nothing short of miraculous, and he's actually been a reliable Fantasy player over the last two weeks.  Alex Van Pelt, QB BUF - Free Agent Updated 11/18/01 Van Pelt threw for 316 yards, two TDs and no interceptions against the Seahawks. He did lose a fumble, but Van Pelt got solid protection for most of the game and will be a respectable Fantasy backup while he fills in for the injured Rob Johnson. Jeff Garcia, QB SF - C-Dawg's Boyz Updated 11/18/01 Garcia had another huge game, posting 305 yards and three touchdowns against Carolina. He's been one of the top three Fantasy quarterbacks this season, and may even be more valuable than Peyton Manning at this point.  Peerless Price, WR BUF - DRock's Beaatchs Updated 11/18/01 Price caught 10 passes for 138 yards and a TD against Seattle. He has clearly become Buffalo's best Fantasy player this season. Matt Hasselbeck, QB SEA - Texas Terminators Updated 11/18/01 Hasselbeck threw for 134 yards, one TD and no interceptions at Buffalo. The Seattle QB is making less mistakes, yet he doesn't help Fantasy teams much, either. Jon Kitna, QB CIN - Blue Balls Updated 11/18/01 Kitna put up 234 yards passing and a touchdown against Tennessee, but two interceptions made his performance mediocre. He's no better than a reserve Fantasy player at this point, best used when the matchup is right in a deeper league.  Koren Robinson, WR SEA - Orange Roughy Updated 11/18/01 Robinson caught two passes for 15 yards at Buffalo, including his first career TD, a seven-yarder. Robinson is slowly improving, but still does not produce enough to be a reliable Fantasy player. Corey Dillon, RB CIN - Texas Terminators Updated 11/18/01 Dillon was held in check by Tennessee, rushing for only 38 yards on Sunday. However, with all the injured running backs around the league this season, Dillon is still a must-start on a weekly basis.  Steve McNair, QB TEN - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/18/01 McNair played despite a sore thumb, throwing for 172 yards and a touchdown against Cincinnati. He's been an unreliable Fantasy player this season, and is worth starting only when the matchup is right.  Eddie George, RB TEN - Team Dick Updated 11/18/01 George was unimpressive once again, posting only 65 scrimmage yards on Sunday against Cincinnati. He just doesn't seem to be at full speed this season, and has been a huge Fantasy disappointment.  Ricky Williams, RB NO - Uran Man Updated 11/18/01 Williams had a big game on Sunday, rushing for 120 yards and a touchdown against Indianapolis. He continues to prove his value as a Fantasy player, and is a must-start ever week.  Aaron Brooks, QB NO - Grid Iron Goons Updated 11/18/01 Brooks had an outstanding game against Indianapolis, throwing for 249 yards and two touchdowns. He's put together two straight solid games, and may finally be reaching the potential the coaching staff knew he was capable of.  Peyton Manning, QB IND - Orange Roughy Updated 11/18/01 Manning put up a decent performance against New Orleans, posting 262 yards and a touchdown. He may not be putting up Manning-like numbers this season, but he's still far too valuable to ever consider benching.  Marcus Pollard, TE IND - Really Rottens Updated 11/18/01 Pollard had a huge game on Sunday, catching three passes for 126 yards and a touchdown against New Orleans. He may not be the most consistent Fantasy player, but the lack of tight end depth around the league makes him a valuable commodity.  Donovan McNabb, QB PHI - Team Dick Updated 11/18/01 McNabb was unimpressive on Sunday, compiling only 153 scrimmage yards and a touchdown against Dallas. Despite the mediocre performance, McNabb is still one of the best Fantasy quarterbacks in the league.  Ryan Leaf, QB DAL - Free Agent Updated 11/18/01 Leaf was horrible for the second straight week, throwing for only 102 yards with two interceptions. Incidently, both picks were returned for touchdowns as Dallas fell to Philadelphia, 36-3.  Emmitt Smith, RB DAL - Team Dick Updated 11/18/01 Smith left Sunday's game against Philadelphia in the second half with an apparent knee injury. He did not return to the game, and finished the day with 90 scrimmage yards and a fumble.  James Jackson, RB CLE - Uran Man Updated 11/18/01 Jackson (ankle) did not start in Sunday's game. Jamel White started against the Ravens.  Steve McNair, QB TEN - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/18/01 McNair will start Sunday's game against Cincinnati as long after taking pre-game snaps without any problems. McNair, who is dealing with a thumb injury, isn't worth starting on your Fantasy team outside of deeper leagues.  Jacquez Green, WR TB - DRock's Beaatchs Updated 11/18/01 Green (abdominal strain) is out for Sunday's game. Reidel Anthony will start in his absence. James Stewart, RB DET - Orange Roughy Updated 11/18/01 Stewart (ankle) is out for Sunday's game against Arizona. However, coach Marty Mornhinweg stated that Stewart is making progress, and is getting closer to returning to action.  Marco Battaglia, TE CIN - Free Agent Updated 11/18/01 Battaglia (appendectomy) is out at least a month, and may miss the rest of the season. The big tight end has no real value as a Fantasy player.  Mark Brunell, QB JAC - President Taft Updated 11/18/01 Brunell (quadriceps) will start on Sunday against Pittsburgh. He'll be facing a tough Steelers' secondary at less than 100 percent, however, so Fantasy owners may want to consider benching him in Week 10.  Fred Taylor, RB JAC - Dont Mess Updated 11/18/01 Taylor (groin) practiced without incident on Friday, but he still needs medical clearance before he can play in Sunday's game against Pittsburgh. Even is he is able to play, however, he'd only be used on a limited basis. Stacey Mack will get the start in any event, so playing Taylor on your Fantasy team is not a wise move.  Jerome Pathon, WR IND - Team Dick Updated 11/18/01 Pathon (foot) is out for Sunday's game against New Orleans, according to the Indianapolis Star. Reggie Wayne will start in Pathon's place once again.  James Jackson, RB CLE - Uran Man Updated 11/18/01 Jackson (ankle) will likely be a gametime decison on Sunday against Baltimore. If the rookie tailback is unable to play, Jamel White will be Cleveland's featured back with Benjamin Gay getting some looks in the backfield as well.  Correll Buckhalter, RB PHI - Uran Man Updated 11/17/01 Buckhalter has been suspended for this weekend's game against Dallas. He is one of three Eagles who will be held out of the game. Brian Mitchell will likely serve as Duce Staley's backup. Jamal Lewis, RB BAL - Free Agent Updated 11/17/01 According to published reports, Lewis has been suspended for four games. Lewis' four-game suspension went into effect on Friday and he will not be allowed to work out or rehabilitate with the team for four weeks, or until Dec. 17. Instead, Lewis will work toward recovering from a torn ACL in Tennessee.  Tyrone Wheatley, RB OAK - Uran Man Updated 11/16/01 Wheatley (knee) is out for Sunday's game with the Chargers. Charlie Garner will once again be Oakland's feature back. Zack Crockett may be used in goal-line situations. Frank Wycheck, TE TEN - DRock's Beaatchs Updated 11/16/01 According to published reports, Wycheck is expected to play half of Sunday's game against Cincinnati. That makes him a risky start from a Fantasy perspective. Steve McNair, QB TEN - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/16/01 McNair's status is still in question for Sunday's game against Cincinnati due to an injured right thumb. He threw the ball during individual drills Friday, and according to published reports, is likely to play despite not being 100 percent. We don't recommend McNair this week as a result. Emmitt Smith, RB DAL - Team Dick Updated 11/16/01 Smith will return to the lineup Sunday against Philadelphia after missing two games with a sprained right knee. Cowboys Head Coach Dave Campo said after Friday's practice that Smith would "be ready to play the majority of the game." His return bumps Troy Hambrick to fullback, but we wouldn't recommend you use either back against the stingy Eagles rush defense. Frank Sanders, WR ARI - Dont Mess Updated 11/16/01 Sanders (hamstring) was added to the NFL injury report on Friday and is now listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Detroit. However, if you're completely desperate for a wideout in a larger league this week, Sanders' matchup against a vulnerable Detroit secondary is worth considering as long as he's able to play.  Chris Weinke, QB CAR - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/16/01 According to published reports, Weinke will be the starting quarterback for Sunday's game against San Francisco. However, he's not worth starting on your Fantasy team.  Daunte Culpepper, QB MIN - DRock's Beaatchs Updated 11/16/01 Culpepper is one pace for a good Fantasy season despite the lack of consistency in Minnesota's offense this season. He's one of the better quarterbacks in the league from a Fantasy perspective, and should be in your starting lineup on a weekly basis.  Cris Carter, WR MIN - Luccis Losers Updated 11/16/01 Carter's numbers may be down somewhat this season, but he's still too good to ever consider benching. The veteran has a knack for finding the end zone, and should have a good game against rookie CB Will Allen and the Giants' secondary on Monday night.  Randy Moss, WR MIN - Team Chick Updated 11/16/01 Moss is listed as probable for Monday's game against the N.Y. Giants due to an ankle injury. He's been underachieving this season, but it's almost impossible to bench him based on his potential to post solid Fantasy numbers.  Ricky Williams, RB NO - Uran Man Updated 11/16/01 Williams is one of the better Fantasy backs in the league, and is a good player to use on a weekly basis. He'll face an Indianapolis defense that has been underachieving all season long, so Williams is a must-start.  Aaron Brooks, QB NO - Grid Iron Goons Updated 11/16/01 Brooks had a big game against San Francisco last weekend, throwing for 347 yards and two scores. He may be a bit inconsistent this season, but his potential to post huge numbers makes it tough to bench him, especially against a vulnerable Indianapolis defense.  Willie Jackson, WR NO - Texas Terminators Updated 11/16/01 Jackson put up a huge game against San Francisco last weekend, posting 11 catches and 167 yards receiving. He'll face a questionable Indianapolis squad that is vulnerable to the pass in Week 10, so starting Jackson this week is a solid option.  Stephen Davis, RB WAS - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/16/01 Davis has stepped up his play after beginning the season slowly. He's averaged 112 yards rushing over his last four games, and is once again emerging as a reliable Fantasy player. Give him the start in Week 10 against a Denver defense that is vulnerable to high scoring games.  Tony Banks, QB WAS - Free Agent Updated 11/16/01 Banks has played well of late, throwing five touchdowns in his last three games. He's got a good matchup this weekend against a Denver team that can be beaten through the air, but he's only worth considering in very deep Fantasy leagues.  Michael Westbrook, WR WAS - C-Dawg's Boyz Updated 11/16/01 Westbrook has been inconsistent this season, but he has caught three touchdown passes in his last four games. He'll face a Denver secondary this weekend that is vulnerable at best, so starting him in deeper leagues is worth considering.  Rod Gardner, WR WAS - Houston Big Ballers Updated 11/16/01 Gardner has been held in check in his last two games, catching only three passes for 38 yards. He does have a favorable matchup this weekend against Denver, however, so starting him is a good move.  Az-Zahir Hakim, WR STL - Luccis Losers Updated 11/16/01 Hakim has been inconsistent in recent weeks, so starting him on your Fantasy team is a gamble unless the matchup is right. He'll go up against a tough New England secondary in Week Ten, so avoid using him outside of deeper leagues.  Torry Holt, WR STL - President Taft Updated 11/16/01 Holt continues to put up consistent yardage totals, but he's only scored only three touchdowns this season. He'll face a tough New England secondary this weekend, but he's still worth starting on your Fantasy team based on his potential to put up solid numbers.  Isaac Bruce, WR STL - Uran Man Updated 11/16/01 Bruce hasn't put up the huge Fantasy totals this season, but he's still one of the better wideouts in the league. He'll face CB Ty Law and the formidable New England secondary, but he's still worth starting based on his potential for big numbers.  +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Transactions, View                     3 Days, All But Lineup, All Teams | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ Transactions DATE      TIME      PLAYER            TEAM       TRANSACTION EFFECTIVE COST  11/16/01   2:10 PM  Kennison, Eddie   Dont Mess  Released    Week 10         11/16/01   2:10 PM  Jefferson, Shawn  Dont Mess  Signed      Week 10         +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Schedule, Breakdown                               Current, Luccis Losers | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ C-Dawg's Boyz at Luccis Losers PLAYER                 POS  POINTS      PLAYER                 POS  POINTS  Garcia, Jeff           QB   36.0        Warner, Kurt           QB   45.0    Henry, Travis          RB   2.0         Garner, Charlie        RB   9.0     Harrison, Marvin       WR   5.0         Staley, Duce           RB   18.0    Ismail, Raghib         WR   5.0         Booker, Marty          WR   49.0    Jurevicius, Joe        WR   0.0         Carter, Cris           WR   0.0     Mason, Derrick         WR   18.0        Hilliard, Ike          WR   0.0     Vanderjagt, Mike       K    17.0        Akers, David           K    17.0    Dolphins               DT   0.0         Ravens                 DT   4.0                                                                                 TOTAL                       83.0        TOTAL                       142.0   +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ |        Copyright 2001 Commissioner.COM Inc and SportsLine.com Inc.       | |   Your site is always at http://football.fantasy.sportsline.com/getbad   | +--------------------------------------------------------------------------+ FB10SP
