With the wind blowing out Aramis Ramirez hit 2 3-run homers to propel the Cubs to a 13-8 victory over the Pirates. Each of Ramirez’s homers came with the game tied. It seems like there is a different player stepping up in each game for the Cubs. Wednesday it was Alfonso Soriano and Ted Lilly, [...]

Aramis Ramirez leads the way with 6 RBI
Friday, September 21st, 2007Thank you Ted Lilly
Thursday, September 20th, 2007Back in June I said that the Cubs should keep Ted Lilly. But I didn’t realize that Lilly would turn out to be the most important free-agent signing of last off-season this side of Alfonso Soriano.
He has been a solid and consistent starter for the Cubs. Everyone else on the Cubs staff has seen [...]
Who should I start at WR for Week 3?
Thursday, September 20th, 2007Here is my dilemma of the week, and I’d like some help. I mentioned before that I wanted to give you some input into who I should start every week on my fantasy football team.
This week the decision is at WR. My league is a points and yardage league that also gives WR 1 [...]
Fantasy Football management by popular opinion
Tuesday, September 11th, 2007I would like to open up one roster decision every week to the readers of Vigilante Sports. Every Wednesday I will post a poll asking you the reader a roster decision. I will then wait until the roster deadline for my league, count the votes, and report back.

Which team will hold on for the NL Central [...]
Michigan drops fourth straight
Tuesday, September 11th, 2007624 of total offense for the Ducks, 7 points for Michigan, 2 losses at home, 4 losses in a row, and ultimately 1 person to blame… Lloyd Carr.
I have given him a long leash.
He hasn’t beat Ohio State in 3 years. That makes me cringe, but it’s not something that should cost him his [...]
Bears place Brown and Dvoracek on IR
Tuesday, September 11th, 2007Not only did the Bears drop their opening game to the Chargers on Sunday, they also lost defensive team captain and Pro Bowl safety Mike Brown and defensive tackle Dusty Dvoracek for the season.
Brown has struggled with injuries throughout his career. The Bears brought in Adam Archuleta to play strong safety and moved Brown [...]
Michigan loses to Appalachian State
Saturday, September 1st, 2007I quit. I just can’t take it anymore. Michigan losing at home to Appalachian State has pushed me over the edge.
I know that people will be calling for Lloyd Carr’s job for this one. I can’t make an argument against it. This is 3 straight losses. Two of them were big ones, Ohio State [...]
