If Tink doesn't go, I'll take her place.

OK, so I'm looking at my team, and I see that I've got a few injured players. My starting WR will miss at least the first game, and my reserve WR will be out for a month or so. Can I sub in a player from a different position? Like can I sub in a TE for a WR?

Also, is there an easy way to know if a player will be missing a game on a bye week without following stuff closely? Like can you click on their name or something?

You can't sub across positions but you can use the drop/add feature to pick up free agents and ditch injured guys.

(go to the bottom of your lineup setting page and click add/drop)

The bye weeks are listed on your lineup page as well.

Well, I tried it out.

And it's really funny, because I traded my injured WR (is that a wide receiver?) for another WR from the same team, figuring that if one dude is sitting on the bench, the other guy will definitely end up out on the field racking up the points or whatever. But then while the trade was being held until the next morning for processing, the new guy I picked got injured, and the coach is now talking about playing the original guy I had. Bizarre huh?

But now I don't have him any more, and I'm back where I started.

That's what you get for messing with it. I bet neither of those injured people had good names, either.

Right now I am in second place, way ahead of everyone but W.HI.P, thanks to the delightfully-named Plaxico Burress.

I just thought people might like to know that.

If Plaxico is true to form he'll start resting up for the playoffs in another week or two.
