+On Week 17, we are each on our own, picking our personal three pairs of position players!  Select '''two''' Quarterbacks, '''two''' Running Backs, and '''two''' Wide Receivers or Tight Ends.
-Now, for this month, we're going to try something a bit crazy.  At each position, you'll have a choice between one top player or the combined total of two modestly-accomplished players.  Will you go "two for the price of one", or will you put your trust in some of the league's premier players?
+Make sure you carefully look at whether the team will be playing their starters for the whole game.  And keep an eye on injury reports, right up until the buzzer -- Noon on Sunday.  Since there is a game on Saturday, do not pick any players on New England or the New York Giants, unless you are willing to lock in those picks before 7:00 PM Saturday.

+==November Fantasy Players==
-Cleveland Browns running back '''Jamal Lewis''' left Sunday's game (October 7th) against the New England Patriots with an injured right foot and did not return. Lewis ran just once, gaining 11 yards on the Browns' first offensive play.
+At Quarterback this month, we're going to see another battle between age ('''Jeff Garcia''' - 95.4 passer rating and 221 yards per game) and youth ('''Derek Anderson''' - 95.5 passer rating and 249 yards per game).  At Running Back, we find the league's top two backs -- '''Adrian Peterson''' with 105.7 yards per game, and '''Willie Parker''' with 103.7 yards per contest.

-At Quarterback, let's see how age ('''Brett Favre''' - 1205 yards in September) matches up against youth ('''Tony Romo''' - 1199 yards).  <s>At Running Back, let's pit the father of 9 children by 9 different women in 4 different states ('''Travis Henry''' - 433 September yards) against an [http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/01/27/AR2007012701126.html unabashed supporter] of the Maryland Terrapin women's basketball program ('''LaMont Jordan''' - 424 yards).</s> At Running Back, let's pit former Raven RB '''Jamal Lewis''' (371 yards, now with Cleveland), versus new Raven RB '''Willis McGahee''' (376 yards).  And, at Wide Receiver, let's pick receivers on teams that appear headed in opposite directions -- Detroit ('''Roy Williams''' - 388 yards, accounting for only 28% of the Lions' receiving total) versus the AFC team from New Jersey ('''Jerricho Cotchery''' - 382 yards, and bearing 44% of Jets' receiving load).
+You are free to pick any team in the league (that plays on Sunday, November 4th) for the Stay Alive portion of the pool.
