ESPN Fantasy Football... Hack?

So one of my addictions this time of year is Fantasy Football. I'm not as hardcore about it as some. I control four teams; two on Yahoo and two on ESPN. These are just friendly leagues. We play for bragging/shit-talking rights. So while doing a bit of tech reading I came across an article on The Register about an apparent "hack" for ESPN Fantasy Football.

Apparently, by making some minor changes to the URL string, you can edit your opponent's roster, drop and add players, and generally run amok with their team. Someone is getting JaMarcus Russell as their starting QB this weekend!
