My Fantasy team is due for a loss. Extreme luck has got me this far with a 3-1 record, but my luck has likely run out. I’m up against the 3-1 Vegas Vikings. With Peyton Manning, Joe Horn and Edgerrin James on his team, it will take more than luck to win this one. That’s why I made a blockbuster trade. I traded Reggie Wayne and two lesser Wide Receivers for the apparently ageless Curtis Martin. I am hoping that will give me a boost. We’ll find out tomorrow.
