About Jamal »

Jamal is an 18-year old undergraduate at Washington University in St. Louis. His first love was basketball, and football has recently polevaulted the other sports into second.

His dream job is to be an NBA or NFL GM (Nuggets, Bulls, Rams, or Vikings), and second at this point is a sports writer. The backup plan as of now looks to be financial advising.

His favorite type of writing is creative, with a sports theme, and fantasy football (and perhaps basketball) is second.

I am surprised by the number of people who actually want to reserve the right to bad-mouth their teams! I offer constructive criticism, of course, but one in particular wants to be able to say, "they suck," if they do.

I don't get it. Will YOU take the pledge?

Hey Jamal,

Please check out my slide show. Yes I'm shamelessly trying to win the i-pod touch. But please help me out anyway.

Thanks.

Hey Jamal, trying to put together the awards article, any quick thoughts and reasons for some of these pieces? You can either email them to me or post them to my board.

MVP, LVP, Waiver Wire Hero, Most Overrated, Most Likely to Drop Off, Most Likely to Comback Strong, and the one thing you wish you knew on your draft day.

Well, you're definitely welcome.

You can pick either of those guys if you expect them to keep it up. I'm looking to compile a list of several players that we think will jump back to their fantasy production from last year in the next few weeks, not just guys who have one week here or there at their old status if that helps explain what I am looking for a little better. For example, if you think Braylon Edwards will start scoring TDs like he did last season, you can use him. You don't have to give me too much, but feel free to write more if you wish.

I am hoping to compile the article next week. If you could send your pick and explanation to me sometime this weekend, that would be perfect.

Jamal - If you're interested, I'd love to include your input in our latest feature for the fantasy football section. Check my community leader shout box (lower right of the fantasy football section page) and shoot me an email with your take on which dud of a stud will bounce back this season.
