Fantasy Football Weekly: Bucs-Vikings

Hurricane Irma took out one of my fantasy football leagues.

Due to scheduling conflicts, that league wasn't scheduled to draft until Friday, September 8, a day after the NFL's 2017 schedule began in New England. That's not ideal, but it was only night we could all do it. Or so we thought. With Irma bearing down on Florida, league members were scattered understandably focused on matters of greater importance. We had no choice but to shut down the draft, and nobody really wanted to try to reschedule.

Now, please understand: This is not a complaint. In the grand scheme of things, canceling a fantasy league was probably about the 46 millionth most important effect of Hurricane Irma.
