If Matt Doyle had his football fantasy, it would be to construct a team reminiscent of the 1985 Chicago Bears. Instead, these days he tries to avoid picking any Chicago Bears for his fantasy teams.

James Royal is the Atlanta Braves of fantasy football -- lots of regular-season success with lots of postseason heartache, like the year he lost the championship because Terrell Owens and Willis McGahee were both out with injuries. His proudest free-agent acquisition was grabbing Kurt Warner when he was still Kurt Warner, the former AFL quarterback who used to sack groceries.

Jason Collington's first fantasy football draft pick was Eric Dickerson, back when he was a Colt. He's lost a lot more than he's won, but in the last 10 years he's taken home five fantasy championships. He doesn't pick a kicker until the last round. Defense the round before that.

Matt Clayton has been in the same fantasy football league for 11 years. He’s won two championships and finished eighth quite a few times. He’s a Dallas Cowboys apologist, his favorite football player ever is Steve Atwater from the Denver Broncos and he named his dog Brady, because of his long beautiful hair and how much he likes new shoes.
