Every week, I write this column over the course of Tuesday and Wednesday. Except this week, when instead of spending all day Wednesday in front of a computer, I spent it with my wife, kids and 23 other members of my extended family celebrating Christmas and Hanukkah.
All of which is a long way of saying there's no opening story this week. Hey, it's Week 17.
Since it is the end of the year, I will wrap up a few things. The final "Fantasy Football Now" of the season airs Sunday at 10 a.m. ET on ESPN2 and goes all the way up to kickoff.
