She's doing a hell of a lot better than I am in the Irregular League. I'm at the bottom, she's in the middle, and our resident scientist, hale-bopp, is at the top, after professing his ignorance of Fantasy Football. I hope none of you bet money with him; I think he's a shark or a ringer.

Btw, congratulations Packers! Great game. Favre looked kinda sad limping around at the end there.

Well, remember, I can do statistics. Just have to figure out which ones are important!

I know the game of football very well. The problem is that I didn't follow it closely enough to know the players as well. When I watch the games, I can see all the matchups, whether they are in zone or man coverage, where the help comes from, where the likely blitzers are, etc. The problem is knowing the individual players. Even if you have the right defense or offensive play called, it only does so much good if you don't have enough skilled players to pull it off.

I have season tickets to U of A football. All the season ticket holders around have figured out I am a good person to ask what happened when they don't understand something. When I get excited about something, they ask what happened so they can catch it on the replay since they know I usually saw something they missed. I feel like the color commentator for section 16.

Slow and steady wins the race. Maybe comet hale-bopp will get too close to the sun and burn himself out! :)

Actually, kk, this coming week is tough on me for byes. Long term, I am keeping an eye on my quarterback, Kyle Orton. As many fantasy points as he is scoring, if Denver keeps losing the fans are going to call for Tebow to play and at some point the coach might make the switch. Glad I picked up Ben Rothlesberger (in spite of his personal problems) while he was suspended. Since Pitt has already had a bye week, I just have to worry about health or him doing something else stupid.

You keep this winning shit up and you'll be a statistic! Laugh'in.

You kicked my butt with the two players who played out their butt! Talk about getting lucky...gezzzzz

Yes, Ser...there is luck involved in this game...all you can do is play the odds. This is the second time I have gotten huge performances and won against someone who had a pretty good week.
