I'm in the same boat, and it turns out all you need to know is what the fantasy football app tells you. All the relevant stats are right there in front of you. But it does take time. Upwards of 15 minutes a week if you are really paying attention.
The interesting thing is that once you are reading the stats on these guys, the names and teams start to sound familiar and you start to notice the real world games. |

That's how I was with premiere league for a while. My team was awesome but I couldn't pick most of my players from a crowd. but then I started to pay attention. For a while.

I was lucky. John Madden called me every week and helped me with my line-up. Thanks John!

Save it, Nirv, save it!
It's the same one Monster's "friend" put outside. It's a survivor. Although we've had an an influx of foreign ladybirds, which aren't really what we know as ladybirds. Harlequin ladybirds. If it's one of those - kill it!

Y'know, it really irritates me the way my niece's generation has started calling them ladybugs.
Yes, I know that's petty. But 'Ladybirds' is so much nicer.

Did you know that the common image of Mary draped in blue (think of a children's Nativity play) comes from the fact that blue was the hardest colour to paint with and the most expensive to obtain? Large areas of deep blue were therefore a shorthand for importance.

I didn't know that. Though I did know that blue pigment was uber expensive. Lapis lazuli ground up to a powder. Used in illuminated texts, and more expensive than gold leaf.
