Is there anything worse in football than a bye week for your team? (Besides losing to Arizona...stupid Packers.)

Not only does it mess up fantasy football rosters across the country (I picked up my first loss last week because all of my wide receivers had a bye), but it also leaves you with nothing to look forward to on Sunday.

While the majority of the country is rooting for their hometown team, you're left watching Chicago play New Orleans, or Baltimore play Arizona. Ugh...

Besides, why do we have bye weeks, wasn't the original reason they came up was because there were an odd number of teams in the NFL? Well, we are at an even 32 now!

Of course on the flip side this gives a nice week off for some players to recover. Daunte Culpepper, Mike Vick, and Chad Pennington for example.

But Sunday will still feel empty this week...
