Dear Dad, I know, I know, it's been a long time since I wrote you. But come on, you died over 19 years ago and didn't leave a forwarding address. That's on you! I've been thinking about you a lot lately, Don Gonos. Thought about your love of sports and games and how that trait …

I'm Bryan. I like beer. Will you like beer with me? I write a little blog over at This Is Why I’m Drunk where I review craft beers and document my start as a homebrewer. Come on over and let's knock a few back. Cheers! While fans aren't yet flocking to parking lots and stadiums to …

Welcome to my Fantasy Football Rankings two-round mock draft!

We're beyond the NFL Draft, and a lot of the offseason training activities. Fantasy Football owners have …

Peyton Manning’s Fantasy value is highly debatable this offseason. There are so many variables, it’s tough to take a hard stand on where he should land on your Fantasy Football draft cheat sheet.

My latest Fantasy column on SportsIllustrated.com discusses some of my tenets and philosophies when it comes to approaching a 2012 Fantasy Football draft. I talk about handcuffing running backs, along with a discussion about taking a backup quarterback or tight end. But the most discussed part of that article was my refusal to take Patriots …

When I was a kid, I collected everything to do with sports -- it was something my Dad helped me with. I collected sports cards, magazines, hats, posters, tickets and anything else you could imagine. But once I became an adult (I swear it happened), and began moving from house to house, apartment to apartment, condo …

Trent Richardson enters the NFL season as the most anticipated rookie running back in Fantasy Football since Darren McFadden came out of Arkansas in 2008. He’s the highest drafted running back (No. 3 overall) since Reggie Bush was taken with the second pick by the Saints in 2006. Running backs can have the biggest Fantasy …
