Ask the Expert Question: What do you think fantasy leagues should do with Week 17?

What do you think fantasy leagues should do with Week 17? Super Bowl, one-week competition for everyone in the league, just ignore it and watch the games for entertainment value (as most probably do), or something else?

No Super Bowl-too much of a chance that a team sits players to save them for the NFL playoffs. Best idea is a completely new week 17 contest for the league where anyone can pick any players in a total score competition. This is also a perfect time to try something different in terms of scoring or roster rules as a test balloon for next season. For example, dual flex, 1.5 PPR for TE or start 2 QB rules.

On a fateful night in Afghanistan, a flawed NATO airstrike sets into motion a chain of events that reaches across the world, from Vancouver to Copenhagen to London. How far will one person go for revenge?

In the sleepy English countryside, an F15E Strike Eagle team gears up for a live weapons mission. Can lead pilot "Rider" keep his head in the game and overcome the demons of his past? Hundreds of lives will depend on the answer as a deadly Al Qaeda terrorist cell, and maverick CIA and MI6 agents descend on US soil in a jaw-dropping climax where anything goes.
