1. How should Starlin Castro celebrate his new contract?
| Brian Moore: Buy himself out of his own contract and go play for a team that can win a title someday. |
| Matt Pais: Blow it all in one epic night. That's not what I would do, but we're not talking about me. |
| Grant Yanney: By diving for a ground ball. |
| Kat Velez: By playing really hard for the first three years, and then slacking for the rest of it. |
| Mike Balzer: Under strict adult supervision. |
2. Jake Peavy's dealing with an eye infection. Any advice for him?
| Brian Moore: Don't ever volunteer to talk to a RedEye reporter. Our cover jinx is legendary. |
| Matt Pais: Stop typing with your eyes. Keyboards are very dirty, and fingers work better. |
| Grant Yanney: He gotta start taking those contacts out at night. |
| Kat Velez: Rub your eye and then touch your teammates' stuff. It'll be fun! |
| Mike Balzer: No. None. I have no advice whatsoever for him. |
3. If Brian Urlacher can return to practice next week ...
| Brian Moore: ... then maybe he'll be able to play by Week 12. Yes, I'm a pessimist. |
| Matt Pais: ... that will prevent him from catching up on his daytime stories, but that's what DVR is for. |
| Grant Yanney: ... then his rating on "Madden 13" better be at least 90! |
| Kat Velez: ... the Bears' inevitable failure can be postponed another week. |
| Mike Balzer: ... Dom DeCicco may become a slight underdog for the Bears' starting ILB spot. |
4. What's your must-have for every fantasy football draft?
| Brian Moore: A Magic 8 Ball. You're basically taking a stab in the dark anyway. |
| Matt Pais: A pen or computer. Very difficult to do it all by memory. |
| Grant Yanney: A timed draft and music. Calez Kid With Raps mixtape. Groove! |
| Kat Velez: A global filter on the words "fantasy football" in TweetDeck. |
| Mike Balzer: Someone willing to draft Devin Hester in the first round. |
5. Make a prediction for college football season.
| Brian Moore: Opposing fans might be pretty hard on Penn State. |
| Matt Pais: I predict I will often say on Saturday afternoons, "I wish the NFL was on." |
| Grant Yanney: Geno Smith will win the Heisman. Side note: The new system still won't stop the booster system. |
| Kat Velez: I will continue not to give a damn. |
| Mike Balzer: Penn State fans will grow more and more insufferable with each passing week. |
