Patron all around!
The result? McCoy (19), Chandler (7), Moore (11) and Nelson (4) combined for 41 points. The trash we got rid of?!? They bogarted a whopping 7 points yesterday.
No surprise, then, that we got our first victory of the fantasy season -- 102-74. (And we still have Tim Hightower in-play tonight.)
As is often the case, it's no so much who you draft, it's who you get after the draft.

Not kidding...

Some day.

Things that PISS us off...
People who are late for appointments and don't call. (If you want our business, don't be an A-hole...)

A fantasy that SUCKS...
1st round Aaron Rodgers
2nd round Steven Jackson (Should have taken Calvin Johnson.)
3rd round Frank Gore
4th round Percy Harvin
5th round Mario Manningham
6th round Steelers defense
7th round Mike Sims-Walker
8th round Tim Hightower
9th round Brent Celek
10th round Braylon Edwards
11th round David Akers
12th round Michael Bush (Should have taken Tony Gonzalez.)
13th round Jermaine Gresham
14th round Donald Driver
It all seemed so great immediately after the draft. Of course, we've already waived Edwards, Bush, Gresham and Driver. And we traded Gore for Shady McCoy. (Thank goodness Captain Ray accepted alcohol as part of the trade offer.)

Another ass-kicking in fantasy football
Another Sunday, another L in NFL fantasy football.
Well, unless Mario Manningham comes up with ... wait for it ... 45 points tonight.
Ugh.

Two HUGE strikes against OU
2. We suck on the road at night! We always get off to slow starts. The defense gives up an early TD for 50+ yards. The kind of play where people say, "National championship level defenses would never make such a Big Boner like that." And we dig ourselves in a hole, before coming back to make the game close. Then we fly home with the L.
And, unfortunately, that's what will happen tonight. Florida State will sprint out to an early double digit lead. The OU defense will play like crap in the first half. By the fourth quarter Oklahoma will cut it to a one score deficit -- but the D will not be able to come up with the big play.
Florida State 30 Oklahoma 21. (We simply suck on the road. Play this game in Norman and we win by 20+.)
As such, we will DVR the game -- thus sparing us the anger of wanting to reach through the TV and punch Oklahoma defensive coordinator Brent Venables. Instead, we will watch Ohio State-Miami (free tattoos vs. cash payments).
Enjoy the slate of games.

Our 2,000 post...
How bad was our fantasy football performance on Sunday?
We had the lowest point total in the league (69).
Our second leading scorer was ... wait for it ... our kicker (David Akers, 15).
We drafted the first defense in the league (Pittsburgh's) and it got us ONE POINT on Sunday.
Not to be outdone, joining the Steelers in the land of scoring ONE POINT were Percy Harvin and Brent Celek. Note that Mike Sims-Walker is not on that list. That's because he scored ZERO POINTS. (Seriously, we can't make this sheeeeet up.)
We will now go throw-up.

A 50-50 fantasy
We live in a society that makes snap judgements and demands instant analysis.
So here you go: Our college football fantasy team is AWESOME! But our NFL one SUCKS!
There you go.
Our college team rolled to its second consecutive victory, 88-75. In a 10 team league, we one of two teams still undefeated. Our big guns Saturday were Vick Ballard (RB, Mississippi State) with 25 points and Stephen Hill (WR Georgia Tech) with 18. We will be making a change at quarterback. USC's Matt Barkley gave us a pedestrian 14 points. Russell Wilson (Wisconsin) and his 26 points sat on our bench. He will be in our lineup next Saturday against ... wait for it... mighty Northern Illinois.
As for our NFL team -- we'll save that for tomorrow. Too depressing to get into today.

Nothing else matters today. Not Michigan's comeback. Not the the U.S. Open. And not fantasy football.

NFL Quickies: Three & out...
We used to like Trent Dilfer. Now, he's gone the way of Joe Theismann. He thinks he knows more than anyone. And he loves to hear himself talk.
Herm Edwards is getting dangerously close to becoming a Michael Irvin screaming jerk. (Irvin was once a great football commentator. Then he turned into a crazed wild man.)

S.I., August 31, 1987
Every Labor Day we read an old Sports Illustrated article from 8/31/87 on Oklahoma QB Jamelle Holieway. The last two lines sum up the day -- the final one of summer.
"That said, J-Boe goes inside to start packing. Summer's over."

Boise's win proves NOTHING...
The Broncos 35-21 over Georgia proved they can beat crappy SEC teams.
Because that's what Georgia is. They finished 6-7 last season (3-5 in the SEC), which included an unthinkable loss to sub .500 suck-hole Colorado.
Colorado?!?
So liberal commies are screaming this morning, "Boise belongs! They beat G-E-O-R-G-I-A!"
And Boise will ride that the rest of the season, as they now return to their PATHETIC schedule. Big one next week at Toledo, followed by a terrifying road game with ... wait for it ... mighty Tulsa.
Boise State. Yet another season of being a Total Fraud.

Britney Spears fantasy time...
QB: Matt Barkley (USC), Stephen Garcia (local bar/South Carolina), Russell Wilson (Wisconsin)
RB: Antwon Bailey (Syracuse), Vick Ballard (Mississippi State), Montel Harris (Boston College)
WR: Ryan Broyles (Oklahoma), Kris Burd (Virginia), Alshon Jeffery (South Carolina), Kenny Stills (Oklahoma)
TE: Rhett Ellison (USC), Trey Millard (Oklahoma)
K: Rob Beard (Oregon)
Defense: Oklahoma
As of right now, we are winning , 57-44. That, despite the fact we have played just two players (Ballard and Bailey), while our opponent has four guys in play. Hope starter Barkley comes up big, because we left Wilson's 34 points on the bench. Oops.
