Week 17 fantasy football is so degenerate, but ESPN does what it does. With some sort of cheap ESPN swag** at stake (trophy? T-shirt? I still haven't bothered to look up exactly what), would you start Plaxico Burress (risking his leg and the coach's decision to save him for the playoffs) or hit the waiver wire*?
[*- There's no middle ground because of the L. Coles injury and my certainty that neither J. Galloway nor D. Branch will actually play much if at all. And having already picked up I. Bruce, that sentence should end "hit the waiver wire further."]
**- It says here To be eligible for League Winner prizes teams must be in a Prize-eligible league. The top overall team ranked the highest in its fantasy football league at the end of the season will have the choice of a Fantasy Football 2007 League Champion T-Shirt, a Fantasy Football 2007 League Champion Mini Banner or an NFL Bobblehead. Approximate Retail Value ("ARV"): $15 per League Winner (including shipping).
I guess I'd take the bobblehead. Blah.
