I'm participating in two different Fantasy Football drafts this year. One of the drafts I'm the Commissioner (draft is set for September 6th) and the other draft took place this past Saturday. Since I was new to the league the group stuck me with the #12 draft spot. Don't know about you, but #12 is not the easiest position to draft from - the only consolation prize is that at #12 you get the 12th and 13th picks (back to back). Since I know there are millions of Fantasy fans out there just like me I figured I'd share my teams with ...

One of the things that drives me to want more out of life...to want to try harder...work harder....set greater goals....inspire others to do the same...is observing the extraordinary talent of others. Think about it for a second. Haven't you been inspired or at least in awe during a Broadway show....at a rock concert....watching a friend deliver an unbelievable best man or maid of honor speech? We have the ability if we want to take advantage of it to observe talent on all different levels on a regular basis...and I strongly believe within that experience resides amazing potential to inspire and ...
