Welcome to the "Original" Dynasty Rankings Fantasy Football Blog

This blog was born out of a Dynasty Rankings thread originally begun in October, 2006 at the Footballguys.com message boards. The rankings in that thread and the ensuing wall-to-wall discussion of player values and dynasty league strategy took on a life of its own at over 275 pages and 700,000 page views. The result is what you see in the sidebar under "Updated Positional Rankings": a comprehensive ranking of dynasty league fantasy football players by position on a tiered, weighted scale. In the tradition of the original footballguys.com Dynasty Rankings thread, intelligent debate is welcome and encouraged.

Cincinnati-Style Chili Recipe

2 pounds ground beef
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon red pepper
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon cocoa powder
1 or 2 large chopped onion
4 dashes Worcestershire sauce
4 or 5 minced garlic cloves
12 oz tomato paste
4 tablespoons chili powder
1 tablespoon black pepper
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon vinegar
1 tablespoon all spice
4 bay leaves


Boil water in a large pot, crumble meat and cook, then drain. For best results, run meat through food processor afterward to smooth out the larger chunks.

Put all ingredients in crock pot on high and add water until you gain the right consistency. Cook for 2.5 to 3 hours. Serve over angel hair pasta with a heaping helping of thinly sliced cheddar for a three-way. Add onions or beans for a four-way and both for a five-way.
