First of all, it has been brought to my attention that you can comment on my posts WITHOUT being a member of Xanga. I’m not sure how to do it myself and will try to find out how, but for those of you that aren’t members and want to put me in my place because of some of the pure crap I write, please feel free to explore the site and experiment with leaving a comment. If you leave a comment, please say who you are since I won’t know………..wait, I probably shouldn’t say that, it gives people a good way to fuck with me if I don’t know who is leaving the comment. Ahhhh, fuck it…….leave you name if you want or don’t put it, either way it will keep things interesting.
I’m in a fantasy football league with some people from work. The guy that is running it is the same guy who ran one of the leagues I was in last year. I have to say, he is one shady and sneaky sonofabitch. After this season is over, I’m done with his leagues. You might ask how does one cheat at fantasy football? Well, first of all, people can cheat at anything. See, he has his own team, his brother has a team and this girl he is rumored to be fucking has a team too. the whole season there have been questionable “trades” involving his team and these 2 other teams. Last year in the championship game, he paid off the guy he was playing against so that he would win. It also wouldn’t surprise me the least to find out that he was paying off these other 2 teams on the weeks he plays them. And its not only me saying this, there are a couple of other guys in the league from work that believe he is cheating too. Now here comes the best part. Even though he is cheating, his team is in last fucking place! And the team that is next to last? The chick he is fucking. As for his brother’s team, he is barely clinging onto the last playoff spot. I’m right behind him and hold the tiebreaker against him. How fucking gratifying is that? This douche bag can’t even win when he cheats! Of course, there are still 4 weeks left in the season and anything can happen. However the way things are looking right now, he has all but been eliminated from the playoffs, the chick is going to have a helluva time making it and although his brother is in the driver’s seat for the 4th and final spot right now, he certainly has his work cut out for him, as not only does he have a tougher schedule, but he also has to hold off 3 other teams, including my team which is, statistically speaking better than his team. By a lot. I say that because even though I have one less win than him, I happen to have well over 100 points more than he does and points is the tiebreaker. In fact, in spite of me being in 5th place, I have the 3rd most amount of points out of 8 teams. The teams that have more points than me both have at least 2 more wins than me, which means that I have lost some tough games and also am better than my record indicates. That means that in theory, I should be able to at least go to the playoffs. In theory. Of course, theory is a fun place to live, but only reality can get me to the playoffs.
All right, enough fantasy football talk.

My brother-in-law is a fantasy football addict, as is his daughter, my godchild. They’ve both tried to explain it to me, and I’ve been to a sports bar with them on a Sunday afternoon to watch games. Still, nothing took.
Barry Bonds? Indicted? I heard on the news today that his indictment invalidates his contract with the Giants. His career is over.
I’m glad you liked my long-ass letter. I had fun writing it. I know. I’m just that much of a geek. Or would that be nerd? I’m either a geek or a nerd, or maybe a dork, but I don’t know which.
Oh, I meant to say. I think you should add “The Walk of Life” by Dire Straights to your music. That song always makes me dance.
