Fantasy Football Owners: Thank the Ravens

I'm a huge Married With Children fan ... so the title of this piece is a reference to that show. If you remember, whenever Al Bundy did something the rest of his family didn't like, Peggy would say, "thank your Father, kids." Kelly and Bud would then say, in the most digusted way possible, "thanks Dad."

Well, after this past two weeks, the fantasy world would like to say, "thanks Ravens." (remember to say it with disdain, like the disdain you felt when Tom Brady went down injured)

On Halloween weekend, we were told that Willis McGahee would be a game-time decision. Well, that decision was seemingly made when the Ravens suited him up and listed him as active. Only he didn't even see the field. Why would you bother to dress a player if he wasn't going to play? Ray Rice ran all over the Browns and LeRon McClain scored a touchdown as the goal-line back.

Headed into yesterday, reports were surfacing that McGahee would be part of a three-headed monster at running back against a weak run defense in Houston. That game plan was apparently thrown out the window, as McGahee ran wild on the Texans (112 yards on 25 carries). He even kept the goal-line carries, scoring twice.

They aren't anywhere near the Broncos on the fantasy hated list, but this doesn't make legions of fantasy fans happy.

Thank the Ravens.
