A literal description of my state of mind
Daniel had a bad day.
His Braves got whupped again. Now we see whether Jennifer is the type to kick him while he's down (and whether anyone would notice me holding him there for her). :D
Going into last night's game, I was 10 points up on Daniel. He had Jevon Walker of the Pack on his roster, and I had Denarius Bennet of the Titans on mine. Wideout to wideout, mano a mano.
Titans won big, but Walker had a huge game, and we ended up in a tie.
A freaking tie.
Maybe I should change my team name to the Braves. Oh wait, that wouldn't fit, because the Rockets didn't lose (Sorry Daniel, couldn't resist the cheap shot).
Being the eternal optimist, I've played three of the strongest teams in the last three weeks and come away 1-1-1, and all three games were very close. I'm still tweaking the roster, we'll see if I can get to the next level, give that little extra, and any other sports metaphores you can think of.
Actually, I consider this a win because I've got sweet ladies cheering me on, while Daniel has stodgy old men with goatees and muddy shoes. They probably all smell of formaldahyde too. May I present the Rocket Jones Hot Jets cheerleaders!

While grabbing links for this post, I see that Jennifer has already put on the heavy boots! Hahahahahahahaha Jeez I hate the Braves.
Who's up next week? Hmmmm, Patriot Paradox, owner of a three game winning streak after dropping the first two of the season. Sorry bucko, you'll be .500 this time next week.
Posted by Ted at October 12, 2004 04:41 AM | TrackBackDaniel's gonna be hurtin' next week. His QB is on a bye, and have you seen his backups? Heh. I lost this week and I'm mad, so I'm gonna take it out on Daniel.
Posted by: Victor at October 12, 2004 10:36 AMYeah sure. Hey how's that tie working for ya?
Posted by: Nick Queen at October 12, 2004 10:44 AMTed - low blow... absolute low blow on that cheap shot.
Victor - Bring it on. Let's see, I get T Gonz back at Tight End and I get Harrington going against a fairly weak Greeb Bay defense. I'm not worried. Not one bit.

Can't wait to play your team, but mostly because of your cheerleaders. That and the easy victory.
