The draft is on the 24th of August. We need at least one more to join us but all are welcomed.

Should I make a new thread or will this suffice?

I'm going to move the draft back a week unless I hear otherwise. Sorry guys, look like not too many people are interested this year. I sent emails to everyone who was in the league last year but we only have 7 people

Woohoo! I'm not sure I'll make the draft but I will update my autodraft order.

How does a player get on the "cannot cut" list?

Dont know he was a fairly high draft pick im guessing, but the Raiders are running by committee ...He's a good back and could end up breaking out later but atm he's useless to me with my backs of lynch, addai, and jones. They plan on getting him more involved as a receiver option but they havn't used him much in that role so far.

He has 272 Yards, 1td, 7rec for 46yards

I proposed a trade to take him off your hands for you. I've got room on my bench for him.

Well sports fans the last game of the season takes place tonight as the Chicago Bears face off against the Green Bay Packers. Two Bears players will take part in tonights action along with the opposing defenses.

The Dragons enter tonight with a 50.58 point lead and Chicago's Defense and Kevin Payne to play. Chicago has averaged 11.7 points this year, last time Chicago played Green Bay the Defense had 1.50 points. The Bears have been a staple defense for the Dragons since the creation of the AFL. Payne is a late season addition to this Dragon's team and is averaging 3.5 points per game.

The Big 'Uns enter tonight trailing with Green Bay's defense averaging 10.15 points per game. Against Chicago the Green Bay Defense scored 16 points last time these two teams met. With Matt Forte (RB) averaging 12.25 points per game.

Unfortunately for the Big 'Uns the success of Matt Forte's running attack and the touchdowns he will need to close the point gap will hurt the Defense of the Big 'Uns. The Dragons also have a similar issue with Payne's and the Defense points being closely related, although not negatively effecting each other.

If the Dragons hold the league and win it will be their 4th Championship win ('03, '05, '07) and the first two-peat in the league's history. This would also be the second time a team with a losing record advanced to the playoffs and won (Dragons '07).

The Dragons entered this years 8-team playoff's as the 7th seed. Due to recent elimination of several team this year's league only featured 8-teams which all advanced to the playoff's with a chance for glory. 2007 featured 12 teams and an 8 team playoff of which the Dragons were ranked 6th.

The playoff games have featured by Seed and year: 4-3 1-7, 1-6, 5-6, 4-2, 1-2, 1-2. Of those only 5-6 and the first instance of 1-2 playing has the higher ranked team won the championship game. Like they say...on any given sunday any team can win in this sport.

Bottom Line - The Dragon's by 31 points.
