You read their columns every week. You already think they are either brilliant sports minds or complete buffoons. Now, you’ll have plenty of ammunition to support either opinion.

Atomic Sports pit 11 columnists and one CEO against each other in our second annual fantasy football league. Our draft was held on August 19, but it won’t be until December that we find out who knows their pigskin and who’s just another knucklehead with a laptop.

Either way, we’re thrilled to have you, our loyal readers, follow along with the results throughout the season. We want to hear from you regularly – who’s hot, who’s not, who’s a great sleeper, and who’s a bum – and we’ll post your contributions all season, along with the insights and analysis from our writers.

So, without further adieu, let’s meet this year’s owners:

Jon Bellwood, columnist

Favorite NFL Team: Cincinnati Bengals
Fantasy Football Experience: Nil
Pre-draft Strategy: To make sensible decisions and put together a good, solid squad, with no risks in the starting players. The bench will be my area for the potential sleepers.
Top Sleepers: I don’t know if you’d classify them sleeper but I fancy Michael Bush and Adrian Peterson to make an impact in their rookie seasons.
Player you have to get: Tomlinson!

David Hale, senior editor

Favorite NFL Team: Philadelphia Eagles
Fantasy Football Experience: I’ve been in more fantasy leagues than Jenna Jameson has been in orgies.
Pre-draft Strategy: Gets lots of running backs. Ideally, two in the first two round, but definitely have four solid backs by draft’s end. Wait it out on wide receivers, get a top QB if I can, and don’t draft a kicker or defense until the final two rounds. I’ve developed this strategy over the years, and every time I’ve deviated, my team has sucked like the Devil Rays at Yankee Stadium.
Top Sleepers: Hey, I’ve still got other leagues to draft in, so I’m not sure I should share this info. Still, a few guys to watch: Vincent Jackson, Brandon Jackson, J.P. Losman, Santonio Holmes and Tony Hunt, who will steal touchdowns from Brian Westbrook this season more often than Andy Reid’s sons get arrested.
Player you have to get: Can’t say there’s anyone I really want. I pick No. 2 overall, so I know I’ll have a top guy. In a perfect world, I’d land Donovan McNabb in the fourth or fifth round, but I’m not getting my hopes up.

Vaughn Hines, columnist

Favorite NFL Team: Dallas Cowboys
Fantasy Football Experience: Four years
Pre-draft strategy: Grab the solid defensive units a round before it is fashionable; Pay attention to preseason depth charts for Marques Colston-type players; Snap up a top-notch K early
Top sleepers: J.P. Losman, Stephen Grostowski, Jerricho Cotchery, Michael Clayton (BAL), Bo Scaife, Vincent Jackson, any Eagles WR, Greg Olsen, Devery Henderson, Michael Bush, Drew Bennett, Deion Branch, Bryant Johnson, Arnaz Battle.
Player you have to get: I’m best when I adjust on the fly.
