Make it a Blockbuster Night!

So my huge, blockbuster trade with Jake has been approved by the league. I sent him Randy Moss, T.J. Houshmandzadeh, Frank Gore, and Laurence Maroney--basically the core of my lineup--and in exchange he sent LaDainian Tomlinson, Larry Johnson, Reggie Wayne, and Torry Holt--basically two top-10 RBs and two top-10 WRs--back my way. (And Tomlinson BTW, for the uninitiated, is the consensus BPIAOF--or, best player in all of fantasy.) NBD.

Also, I was able to recoup the draft choice I wasted on injured Eagles WR Kevin Curtis by dropping him in order to sign Cowboys WR Patrick Crayton. I do feel guilty for having a Cowboy on my roster, but Crayton came up huge for me last season as a midseason waiver pickup so I'll give him another shot this season. I may have a hated (real life) rival now, but at least, after dumping Randy Moss and Laurence Maroney, I don't have any dirty, spy-gatin' cheaters to worry about bringing down my squads' stellar reputation.

The Campbell Bros definitely lead the league in smiles now:

My starters:
QB Donovan McNabb (Eagles)
WR Reggie Wayne (Colts)
WR Torry Holt (Rams)
RB LaDainian Tomlinson (Chargers)
RB Larry Johnson (Chiefs)
TE Chris Cooley (SKINS)
W/R Edgerrin James (Cardinals)
K Shaun Suisham (SKINS)
DEF Jacksonville

My bench:
QB Jason Campbell (SKINS)
WR Santana Moss (SKINS)
WR Jerricho Cotchery (Jets)
WR Patrick Crayton (Cowboys)
RB Chester Taylor (Vikings)
RB Ricky Williams (Dolphins)
