You guys have no chance.

Your cheerleaders outweigh your football team by twenty pounds per person.

Your halfback is a halfwit and tight end is really a loose middle.

The only qualifications your coach has is when he coached his wife in Lamaze class.

It's already up to 6 teams.  We got a shot at making 10 or 12.

There were only 8 last year, if I remember correctly.

Beating down the Sooners, BYU and C-USA and going to the Fiesta Bowl isnt enough. The Golden Hurricane have signed up for the NFL.  See you in the super bowl.

Post by: MichaelC on August 20, 2007, 02:00:24 PM
Heh.  I think TU has a decent shot this year at OU, and BYU.  We'll see though, I've heard this new coach is a bit rough on them.  Hope he's not another Keith Burns, rough but wacky.

Their season opener at ULM is supposed to be on ESPN2, August 30th.

We have seven teams and we would like three more.

The champion of the TulsaNow Fantasy Football league is given many special accolades. You don't want to miss out on the chance to be treated god-like by football fans everywhere.

Have your player ranking done by Saturday at noon. I will flip the switch and Yahoo will draft for us sometime Saturday night.

Good luck.

damn.

Here we go big dog, you're up first, and the whoopin' starts tonight.

I'm feeling much better about my team this year, much better draft even without LT.  It will be hard for me to repeat last year's 4 straight losses to open the season.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: cannon_fodder on September 06, 2007, 11:27:04 AM
I'm the one who stole your Bears defense, suck it! [8D]

I also drafted Garret Mills, I know you all wanted him... but he's mine now.  Actually, I just released him.  I'm trying to find a spot for him on my roster since I want to keep track of him for fun, but my primary interest lies in stomping your ilk.  Mills was the #2 draft pick over all in our league, then got dropped by NE before being picked up by Minnesota.  lol.

/still trying to figure out this fantasy football thing.  I voted for the other guy.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: RecycleMichael on September 06, 2007, 12:01:26 PM
Please MichaelC...do you really think your over-the-hill team of under-achievers can beat my team of present day all-stars?

I saw your team practice. Half of them had their helmets on backwards and most of the rest were busy hacky-sack.

You got no chance this week. Start crying now.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: MichaelC on September 06, 2007, 12:21:39 PM
I don't know what your team's problem is, but I'll bet it's hard to pronounce.

What were you thinking when you picked those stooges?  Before the draft you started out with nothing and you still have most of it left.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007

Bishes!  A Hurricane blew in over the weekend and still pwned face even after losing BOTH my running backs to injury.

WEeeeeeeeeeeee!
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: MichaelC on September 11, 2007, 10:48:59 AM
I left so many points on the bench, it's a good thing I was playing against recyclemichael.  If this were a contest of passing gas, he'd win hands down.  It's about the only thing his team can pass.

Biggest problem I've got is making the decision on whether to start McNabb or Brady.  I'll probably go with Brady this week, though I have a feeling I might regret it later.  Just like I regret starting McNabb last week.

Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007

My players were confused by the new season and hung over from Labor Day festivities.

I have asked the league to start a week later next year.

Escaped again.  Thank you Tom Brady.  Without you, I'd be minus one good looking Quarterback.  Good looking for a dude anyway.  In a purely non-homosexual way I mean.  Not that there's anything wrong with that.

My tactic of neglect has again marched the Hurricane to another triumph.  Golden Hurricane are 3-1 and leading their league as fantasy football mirrors real life.

Those ties didn't show up a few days ago.

Now, it shows there are four people that tied last weekend.  Something weird is going on.

Somehow I was awarded an extra point and that gave me a tie for the week.

The NFL must have had a change in one of my player stats.

I will try and find out which player and report back.

Here is a link to the stat correction.

http://football.fantasysports.yahoo.com/f1/348439/statcorrections?week=4

My Green Bay defense was awarded an additional sack by the National Football League after review. That got me an extra point and led to the tie.

I used to tell the chicks that too, but for the record, I found out 8 years ago as of Sunday that I indeed... can father.  [edit]I accidentally wrote "chunks" instead of "chicks," Freudian slip[/edit]

and my players are tough as nails.  Not those crappy little brads or even those wusstacular non galvanized things.  I'm talking those monster stakes.  Nay, spikes.  They are tough as spikes.  Railroad spikes.  And when they get old and rusty or worn out, or the line isnt being used anymore - I'll tear em our and replace them with a bike trail.  Then I'm out of the fantasy football world and into biking.  Smooooth, like a fox!  Yes, a fox on a bike. In fact, I'm going to change my name from Golden Hurricane to Bike Fox when my railroad spikes get torn out.  Then, and only then, will the Olsen twins move in with me.

Damn right.

QED
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: MichaelC on October 04, 2007, 01:57:48 PM
Ah, that makes sense.  I was rather surprised, seems like there might have been one tie the entire season last year.  Two in a week, seems odd.

FYI folks, here's your chance to gamble on a QB.  I'm open to trading away Donovan McNabb for a decent starting WR or RB.  Possibly a TE.  He's been crappy through 3 of 4 games, he was spectacular in one game.  He's still recovering from last years injury.

Just trying to keep that out there, if he comes around and starts playing like he did early last year, the price goes up significantly.

Last year I traded away Peyton Manning for Tom Brady + a starting WR.

Looking like I have finally broken 100 pts boyz, and without my starting 2 bye-week receivers.  Bout time, only took something like 21 games.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: RecycleMichael on October 15, 2007, 11:52:12 AM
Very impressive week for you MichaelC.

Your defense had five interceptions, your running back scored four times and your quarterback threw for five TDs.

You still have three players tonight.

I am in awe.

You should help cannon fodder.

He barely scored double digits.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: MichaelC on October 15, 2007, 01:47:05 PM
I always figured Cannon Fodder for a disgruntled charity case.

I'll trade him McNabb for ummmmmmmmm, naw I think I'll keep McNabb.  At least he's a player with more potential than zero.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: cannon_fodder on October 15, 2007, 01:56:30 PM
Yeah... should have probably changed something.  I played 3 players that had a "bye" week.   That did not help my cause.

This time last year, I'd have been 1-5.  Nice reversal.

For the bottom dwellers: Don't give up yet.  6 of 8 teams make the playoffs last year.  I made the sixth seed at 5-9, won the championship from there.

Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: MichaelC on October 23, 2007, 09:37:47 AM
lol

I don't think it's remotely possible, but if Brady keeps scoring 5 or 6 touchdowns a game, I'm going to be hard to beat.  I'm just hoping he stays relatively efficient.  He's got a bye in week 10 somebody is going to be lucky....

BUT IT'S NOT RECYCLEMICHAEL.  Corrosive Cupcakes vs Recyclemichael part deux coming up.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: RecycleMichael on October 23, 2007, 02:11:32 PM
You got the number one running back in Ladainian and you got the hottest quarterback in league history in Brady. Besides that, your team is mostly made up of posers.

I have a plan to distract your two star players that includes either under-dressed female companions or under-cooked pre-game poultry or a combination of the two. I will win this week, whatever it takes.

In sports today, if you're not cheating, you're not trying.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: MichaelC on October 23, 2007, 02:32:25 PM
You never know, LT's been hot lately and certainly Brady has, but, you know how it goes.  Something strange happens, and next week I'm starting McNabb.  And Brady's streak must at some time come to an end.  Kind of wish he'd have been mediocre, keep me around .500 then start the insane scoring stuff later.

I think the rest of my team will become stronger in a few weeks, barring new injuries.  I've got a few gems that haven't paid off yet.

I need Brett Favre to throw three touchdowns tonight to have a chance. He has only thrown nine in six games so far this year.

Your quarterback has thrown 30 touchdowns in eight games so far this season. Without him on your team, you would be so far in last place that your players would quit and take up bowling.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: MichaelC on October 29, 2007, 10:09:04 AM
I think the key is your defense, if Denver's offense doesn't move, you get points and Favre will have plenty of opportunities to score.  Otherwise, you need a shootout where Favre has to score.

I'll take forcing Favre to score over giving easy chances.  Denver's D is pretty solid, and Favre's so amusingly elderly.  He has a striking resemblance to Jerry Stiller.

My rematch against RM is this week... my only guarantee is that Drew Brees will do better than he did last time... how is it possible for one player to play so bad, he gets you minus-six fantasy points?

MichaelC is only one late fourth-quarter meaningless Monday Night touchdown pass ahead of me...

And, I'd like to salute the hard-nosed, penetrating defense of the Pittsburgh Steelers who led me to my second straight "Viagra High Score of the Week" despite RM's stiff competition... [}:)]
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: MichaelC on November 09, 2007, 01:00:44 PM
I'm planning on losing this week.  McNabb's my starter, Brady's on bye.  

Just 5 more weeks until playoffs.
Title: TulsaNow Fantasy football 2007
Post by: RecycleMichael on November 09, 2007, 02:44:33 PM
That Viagra high score has sure got you heading in the right direction.

Give up now, RougeNex.

Your team has peaked. I will be surprised if many of your players don't quit football outright after this week and go back to intepretive dance competition.

Woo!  Broke 100 again.  One more win, assuming the Methheads kicker doesn't go berserk and score 56 points, and I clinch the #1 seed in the playoffs.
