Fred Taylor unhappy with Rotoworld
The funny thing, I've always considered myself a Fred Taylor fan. Apparently, he disagrees.
If you are watching the Sunday night game tonight, check back here throughout. Not sure I can quite call it a liveblog because I have some other work to attend to, but I'll be checking in periodically. Hopefully your draft weekend went better than Michael Turner's.
And here's my preview of the Sunday night game, in case you missed it.

Here's hoping Freddy's season goes the way of his laptop, and breaks.
Go MJD!!!

Gregg, LT owner here that got Turner as well. Any news on his injury? Would you drop Turner for say Brian Leonard, or Tony Hunt or even Sproles if Turner is down for more than a week or two? Thanks.

san diego union tribune says it's not a major injury and the team is optimistic about his chances to play in the opener.
while turner is a bit overrated on many draft boards, he's got a much better chance to show you some production than the other guys you mentioned.

Wow, I'm a Fred Taylor fan myself. Too bad poor Fred doesn't realize that in most fantasy leagues, he has to rush for nearly (or sometimes over) 100 yards to equal the amount of points the rest of the running backs get for one touchdown (I say the rest because with Greg Jones and Mo-Jo, I can't see Fast Freddie getting more than three or four the whole season).

If Fred Taylor is off the board by the 10th pick in Fred's fantasy league, then I want to play in that league! That should be an easy trip to the Super Bowl.
More rushing yards than Reggie Bush... you had 76 more carries Fred! More receiving yards than Shaun Alexander? I'm one 49 yard screen pass away from having more receiving yards than Alexander in 2006! Not great comparisons there, Fred!
Taylor is a good back, there is no doubt. But he is not a Tier 1 or 2 fantasy back until he starts scoring 10+ TDs per year.
