Points League Waiver Wire Pickups - Week 2
There is no getting around that playing head-to-head points with weekly matchups is a difficult proposition in a 60-game season. There are only 10 weeks to play so that makes for a regular-season made up of just five or six matchups. Obviously, that will be a roller coaster of insanity for any leagues keeping the […]

The Early Cut List (Week 2) - Time to Let Go?
