0:00.0	And the Fantasy goes in 10 year cycles. 10 years ago that Sean Siegel published Anti-Fragility and the Zero RB theory.
0:28.0	I was a major proponent of that strategy for many years and then I realized we were in the midst of a running back
0:33.8	renaissance and that all those running backs we were avoiding in 2013 and 2014 and
0:40.2	2015 were gone. The witch was dead. Carlos Hyde was over. Monteball was out of the

1:39.0	He drafted Jamal Charles in round five.
1:41.0	That's how he won. Fantasy gamers at that moment in time had soured on
1:46.4	running back to the point that Jamal Charles, a prototypical league winning back, goes and puts up 1,500 yards in 2012 and 70
