BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 13% of Fleaflicker Leagues ANALYSIS: Last week Dan 'Boom' Herron surprisingly got the start over Trent Richardson because he was 'under the weather'.  I would think it is actually due to mediocre play myself, being that Richardson really isn't that great.  So far Richardson has underwhelmed for […]
