It’s been the week of fantasy football drafts. I’ve had two this week and one more tomorrow, and throw in a couple survivor and pick em leagues and I’ve got a full slate of football entertainment coming to me for the next 6 months. Which is good, since UK basketball doesn’t start for a few […]
The fellas start rolling in today for our league’s fantasy football draft. Yes, we’re all grownups and this is how we escape our regular lives. Get over it. Plus, as a bonus, we gamble as well. And that makes everything just a bit sweeter and more enjoyable. To honor our ninth season, let’s cheer ourselves […]
I would be remiss if I missed the opportunity to briefly gloat about a championship I recently won.

Yes, if you’ve never seen Jim Mora’s rant (yeah, he was a real head coach in the NFL, scary), then make sure you check it out. He might have been just a tad crazy. Well, it’s time for the playoffs … in fantasy football. If you don’t know what fantasy football is (and I had […]
I could not have asked for 2008 to end any better. OK, well, there are a few things I would like to not have happened, but I’m not going to get into them here, other than to say I wish I had not busted my tooth trying to be cool with the guys and I […]
My Friday was total crap. I just have to vent about it for a moment. First, I spent the entire day reading e-mails from my friends in my fantasy football league, who decided it was time to question my manhood for about 8 straight hours. It was brutal. I’m not saying that it wasn’t funny […]
