Unhappy Fantasy Football

OK, still only 8 teams...I will wait until tomorrow morning and if nobody else is interested, I will open it to the public...it will fill (they all do) but that means 6 of 14 teams will be managed by non-board members. Makes my job harder cause there are jerks out there, some will join with 2 teams and try and cheat, others will join and drop out at the last second causing Yahoo to cancel the draft (unever number of teams). In the past we needed at least 2 usually 3 leagues just so everyone interested from the boards could play...guess interest waned. Anyway, I would play with 12 teams and reduce the settings accordingly if we could get 4 more teams...think about it...always more fun when folks know each other and have a common interest!

I was against taking the laptop to the shore with me tomorrow because all of my little cousins will be down there, the devils screwed the thing up last time. My fiancee will be pissed off that I'm drafting too, instead of spending QT, but oh well, if it werent for her I'd be on my way to Ambassador East in Chicago with my boys tonight for the Phils/Cubbies weekend...This draft is simply out of spite, to show her who wears the pants in the relationship(yeah right), and to spread my second to none fantasy prowess.....Not sure if I can finish it, depending on how long it takes.

Long story short, Im in. First pick, Michael Jackson from the Browns.

Look at the bright side. At least when you are sleeping by yourself on the couch and not getting any this weekend because of the impending brawl, you will be able to look at porn because you have your laptop!

Just say no to going public Somer. It's never a good thing.

That's one way to put it, and I'd have to agree.. Where I'm from, beautiful, caring, clean, family oriented girls are dinosaurs, and she's the last of the dying breed. So her wish is ultimately my command, except for tonight.

I wish I had a tape recorder so that I could tape the conversation on the way to the shore tonight, that I'll be drafting instead of cuddling. You would all get a huge kick out of it.

Still trying to figure that one out myself. I'm getting tired of my whole family telling me I hit the jackpot. As if she didn't....

In all seriousness, I really did hit the ceiling with Jessica. I couldn't imagine taking $hit from or life with anyone else. Id rather be fighting with her than be happy with some other girl, thats when you know you found 'The One'.

As for fantasy football Kev, you better have been doing your homework. From the looks of it, this bunch seems to be a knowledgable one. I'm actually looking forward to seeing who some of the participants are high on. Some of my buddies in my other league wouldnt know a good player if he came through the TV screen and bit them in their a$$e$.
