With Hurricane Wilma bearing down on my house in Florida (our third hurricane in the past year), here are the sizzlers and fizzlers for Week Seven. This was by far the most topsy-turvy week of the season, highlighted by only one 300-yard passer and some players on the sizzle list for the first time this season. Throw in a nothing game for both
LaDainian Tomlinson and
Shaun Alexander and your leagues standings are likely to be compressed.
I'd like to send wishes for all the people in Florida to make it through the current hurricane okay. I hope to have power in my house to bring you the weekly Hotpage on its regular Thursday schedule.
