Hey Guys

I'll stop by again tomorrow morning with another question for the week. In the meantime, I'm working on a couple projects that I thought you might be interested in.

So recently I was asked to begin blogging for SI's website, specifically the FanNation section. I'll actually be blogging live during tonight's Indiana/Illinois College Basketball game, which starts at 9:00 pm. If you have some time, register over at FanNation (http://www.fannation.com) and check me out! I'll be blogging live during a few more college games during the season, so I'll give you a head's up beforehand.

Secondly, I'm also doing some work on the SIKIDS.com fantasy website, writing a small section in the weekly fantasy mailbag. You can check that out here (http://sikids.com/fantasy/). I'm Duane from New Jersey. We're gonna be starting a SIKIDS.com fantasy league right after the All-Star break that'll include myself, our fantasy columnist and his readers. You guys should sign up! The player with the highest score every week will be allowed to write a section of that week's fantasy mailbag. Meaning you could get published on SIKIDS.com. Wouldnt that be cooler than getting your homework published? Lol. I'll keep you guys posted on when the league will start if you're interested.

One warning though. Our fantasy league is different from standard models. Instead of holding a draft where you pick up players, our model is structured so that each player acts as a GM. After you register, you are assigned a $75 million dollar salary cap, and allowed to pick up whatever players you want, so long as you remain under the cap. What this means is that it's possible for multiple teams to have the same players. It takes some getting used to, but it's a pretty cool curveball to the standard fantasy format. It's also why I give advice on which low-budget players to pick up in my section of the fantasy mailbag.

OK, I'm gonna go get ready to blog. Stop in at some point, check it out, then drop comments here letting me know what you think! I'll be back tomorrow with this week's question.
