Week 17 scoring

If your fantasy league wraps up this weekend, you're undoubtedly scrambling to figure out which backups to start, which superstars to bench and which games till matter.

 

While you're busy, here's another task -- find a better league for next year.

 

While many leagues are starting to shift their championships up to week 15, I've talked to more than a few friends who are still stuck in leagues that insist on including every week of the football season, even worthless week 17.

 

If you're in a roto league, or a total points league, it's fine -- that one week of lost stats probably won't hurt your team too much. But if you're in a traditional head-to-head league, relying on the final week's stats is just cruel.

 

Tony Romo and T.O. took your fantasy team this far; Now, with everything on the line, you're forced to rely on Brad Johnson and Sam Hurd. Remember that Peyton Manning pick in the first round? Suddenly, in week 17, he's a worse play than Jim Sorgi.

 

Keep that in mind for next year.
