October Fantasy Players

At Quarterback, let's see how age (Brett Favre - 1205 yards in September) matches up against youth (Tony Romo - 1199 yards). 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 unabashed supporter of the Maryland Terrapin women's basketball program (LaMont Jordan - 424 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).

Confusion cleared up

The following e-mail message came in from the hilarious Steve McDonald:

 Not only is New Orleans not going anyplace; they are not even playing
 this week. This is not a good omen for those of us who may have picked
 Drew Brees as a fantasy pick for the 1st 4 weeks, and are securely
 esconced on the bottom (17th I am, I am) in the fantasy picks scoring.
 Unless there is something I missed in the rules set down by 
 the Commish, that means my guy sits (0) while Peyton--300+ yards 
 per game--Manning plays. I  would accuse you of deception and
 trickeration, but it appears that you picked DB(like Coooper he 
 disappears without a trace)rees, too. I guess that will teach me 
 never again to blindly trust others(lawyers are notorious for that).
However, I assure that nobody's been "trickerated". The rules clearly state: If any of the teams on which these players are rostered have a bye in the schedule, the average of their 3 other games' yardage will be normalized into that blank 4th game.
No harm, no foul.
