Amen! I have LT as my perennial Keeper, and I'm damned glad of it. The guy who kept Manning is now left wallowing in the muck of last year's boasts - and it feels soooo good.
I drafted 3rd, and got "stuck" with Shaun Alexander.
Anyways, I figured I'd point this out:

Ha ha ha. I hear ya. I KNOW it had to piss of the guy I was playing this week. I had LT2, and he had Brees. It's kinda like saying, "Hey, don't worry about your QB, LaDainian can handle it." He was calling me when things weren't going good early for my team, he suddenly stopped calling when LT2 started doing his thing.
"Sometime during the Pats game last week, I decided that Tomlinson was the best overall running back of my lifetime. There's nothing he can't do: deadly receiver, tough inside runner, explosive to the outside, you name it." - ESPN's Bill Simmons
I normally try to ignore Brandon Funston of Yahoo!, but I did get a chuckle out of this:
LaDainian Tomlinson threw his third TD pass of the season in Week 8. He now has as many TD passes as current St. Louis starting QB Jamie Martin, who has thrown 71 times to Tomlinson's three. One more TD pass and LT will catch Detroit's Joey Harrington, who threw four scoring tosses in 143 attempts before he was sent to the bench!
