Yeah the Panthers are going to have a rough couple of weeks because once the Bengals leave town they have to hit the road and visit the Saints in the Superdome followed by the return of Julius Peppers to Bank of America stadium as the Panthers faceoff against the surprising 2-0 Chicago Bears.........yeah I heard about the Battle of Texas happening this weekend and I will be pulling for the Texans as well ( I don't think I'll start Dez Bryant since he supposedly already injured his ribs and the Cowboys Offense hasn't done shit) also I will be pulling for the Dolphins to beat the Jets and knock them back into the AFC East basement alongside Buffalo ....... you make it sound like that's a bad thing .....though you got to admit the games are usually close and fun to watch (the only times we've blown Notre Dame out in those 10 meetings were in 2003,2006, and 2008) and the winner of the meetings usually change back and forth every few years so while we have winning back to back games against Notre Dame I bet you the next couple of meetings Notre Dame will win a few or at least get damn near close to it.......yeah I thought Rich Rod was a goner (and he still is a goner if Michigan can't win at least 9-10 games this season especially the Ohio State game) too, I'm going to need all the luck I can get since last weekend two of my three running backs got injured (One will be out for 4 to 6 weeks while the other is out for the season), we play against each other on week 5, lol thanks, so far it's been going good I'm heading into the mid way weekend (playoff games are two weeks each) of the league championship game with a 6-4 lead, so now it's just a matter of hoping for a strong finish....

Well my friend, looks like again we come out ont he losing end of fantasy/real football. Sooner or latter we'll get on the winning wagon. We will, right? I have no clue what's wrong with my G-Men. They melted down yesterday! JEEZ! Not a great day for your Panthers either. Again D.Williams not a factor. Maybe 'cause they're behind all the time and are having to pass more. And since we're speaking about losing, my Irish got destroyed, the Cowgirls beat Houston, and my Yankees are out of first place thanks to Boston. Again, not a good sports weekend. I did win my fantasy game in my other league. I took a gamble on a couple of guys and got lucky. I haven't lost in our league(not yet anyway) I still have Forte and Jennings tonight, but I'm behind like 27 pts. IDK if I can catch up. I will tell ya, I have Jones-Drew and he hasn't done fuck all for me this year so far. I did have a good game out of LT last night. Now that was a damn good game! Tonight's should be good as well. I hope Jennings and Forte go hog wild. Off the subject of football, we finally got our first taste of fall this weekend. Good bye 90's and hello 70's!! We were in the low 50's last night so it's starting to feel like Halloween. Can't wait! Anyway, I guess this week it's back to the fantasy drawing board, hope you had a good weekend and I'll talk at ya later. Peace Peace and Texas Fried Steak grease.

yep, I hope so, no it wasn't but it looks like Clausen temporarily sparked the offense and did somewhat better than Moore did in his first start this season. I don't think that is the reason behind William's lack luster season, I think it is because of three things one the Panther's key offensive line man Otah is out with an injury right now and his replacement isn't doing a good job like Otah has been doing and it's allowing the opposing defense to get penetration into the back field and putting pressure on the QB and running backs, two they keep switching between three running backs every other offensive play which is disrupting the running backs/offensive rhythm, and three the idiocy of the Offensive Coordinator/Head Coach who calls safe plays that won't get the job done in a must win/convert situation and calls stupid aggressive plays in a situation where the team is way down on the scoreboard/too late the damage has been done type deal and instead of going with the safe bet to convert/add some points that would work an example being from this Sunday's game in the 4th Quarter with less than 2 minutes left the Panther's were down 2 TD's and had the ball on the Bengals 33 yard line. They had just failed to get a first down on 3rd and 14 which wasn't surprising since they had trouble converting long 3rd downs all game long, the offensive coordinator/Head Coach suddenly decides it's a good time to have the offense go for it with a long passing play to the end zone on 4th and 14 instead of going for a field goal that was in Field Goal range for their kicker so that the game wouldn't look as lopsided on the scoreboard....guess what happens....Clausen over throws the receiver in the end zone...... Bengals get the ball and can kill the clock ....game over.....except it's not because the idiot Head Coach decides to call a time out with 40 seconds left in the game after letting 30 seconds run off the clock after the Bengals had kneeled once .............man I can't wait for the end of the season because hopefully the new head coach will fire some of these other idiot coaches and hire coaches that can make some smart football decisions................other than that my sports weekend was good Michigan won handily despite a scare with Denard Robinson getting hurt, the Red Sox won two out of three knocking the Yankees out of first place in the AL East and temporarily causing panic among Yankees fans in New York after showing signs of possible pulling off a miracle comeback similar to the one they had in 04 against the Yankees and eliminating the Yankees from playoff contention....though it would still be awesome to see what happens if the Yankees lose out and the Red Sox win out forcing a one day playoff game.............boy that would be a fun day wouldn't it the Yankees who thought they had the AL East title wrapped up suddenly lose it because of their AL East arch rival who everyone even that teams players thought were done and wouldn't be a factor in determining the outcome of the AL East or the wild card suddenly came back to force the Yankees to play one extra game against them in order to get a Wild Card spot and there by ending the Yankees streak of consecutive AL East titles after entering the final month of the season in 1st place ( right now the Yankees are 39-0 in winning the AL East title when entering September in 1st place of the AL East)...............I'm getting giddy at the thought of the Red Sox causing the Yankees to have some major psychological problems right before they are due to enter the playoffs............hopefully it carries over ............. Yeah I picked up Sproles this weekend and he didn't do shit ( he got me just .6 points) so I'm thinking of getting rid of him as well as Nate Washington now that Vince Young and the Titans coaching staff have decided they don't want to throw the ball a whole lot and instead rely on Chris Johnson's feet..so back to the drawing board......yeah it was a good game until Henne threw an interception in the endzone with about 40 seconds left.........I think it will become a Madden Moment later on this week.....yeah I think tonight's game will be good and I think you have a really good chance of getting those 27 points easily with the players you have left......yeah it's starting to turn to Fall here, the leaves have already started turning colors and falling off the trees, it's nice and cool because of the rain and Thunderstorms coming in, stores are now selling pumpkins, Halloween candy, Halloween costumes & makeup,Halloween bowls/ candy buckets, and Halloween themed foods, and there have been televised and radio broadcast ads for haunted trails/houses such as The Woods of Terror in Greensboro and Kersey Valley's Spookywoods.......also if all goes according to plan I'm going to try and succeed in getting on the show tonight and announce my evil plan for my message board movie reviews this month with a follow up announcement on the message boards after the show has been released......which lets just say will be a shocking and hopefully well received departure from my usual movie reviews......but if all does not go according to plan then I will be announcing it this Thursday on the message boards with a thread under General Discussions...you too......talk to you later

Dude, tell me you didn't just mention the '04 ALCS. That was one of the most horrible things ever. It took me months to forget about that. The Yankess were up 3-0 and then BOOM! Boston wins 4 straight and go on to win the World Series. So that was kinda painful in two ways. Not only did we get ousted, Boston won the World Series. BOO!! Damn I hate Boston!! UGH!
Well, I didn't get my 27pts, Forte got me like 4 and I think Jennings got me 7 so needless to say I was short. Forte has really had only one monster game and of course it was on the day that I had him on the bench. Figures. Tell you this, Green Bay had a shit load of penalties last night! I missed all but the 10 mins of the game, but I still got to see the finish wich was pretty exciting. I think the Bears play my Giants next...Holy Shit. Could be ugly for Big Blue. Maybe, just maybe the Giants will wake the fuck up and do something. But as of now, them and the Redskins are the worst two teams in that division. But then again, the year they won the Super Bowl they had a pretty shitty start and really peaked at the end of the season. Maybe I'm just doing some wishful thinking but alot can happen in a season.
Yeah, it's feeling and looking like Halloween here as well. I think we're going to SCREAMS next weekend. It's like 85 acres of Halloween fun. I think there's like 4 haunted houses, a graveyard, food, beer, what's not to like. I've never been there so I'm pretty geeked about it. Are you planning on going to any haunted houses this year?
Anyway, too cool about you being on the show!! That's cool as shit! Can't wait to hear your evil plan. I'm sure it'll be sox rockin. Well, I guess it's back to the waiver wire this week, IDK what's out there, but some changes are in order. I think I play the Mistake on the Lake this week. Who do you play? Ok dude, I'm out, good luck on the waiver wire and I'll be talking to ya. Later man.

Oh yes I did ....it's payback for all the bad playoff shit that's happened to the Red Sox at the hands of the Yankees......yeah I saw that, that sucks because it really looked like you were going to get those points after Jennings got that TD pass right before he pretty much disappeared for the rest of the game, yeah they did they tied the team record for most penalties in a game which was set back in 1954 I believe, still the game was exciting and Peppers was a beast in that game and I hope he is a beast when he comes back to Carolina just so he can show everyone around here who sided with the Panthers at the time just how stupid the Panthers front office/Coaching staff really are for letting Peppers go .......it's looking like both of our teams are going to need a miraculous turn around if they want to be a playoff contender because right now they are all over the place making stupid mistakes, I'm thinking about going to scarowinds down near Charlotte with some family members (my lil sis and two of my cousins) and a couple of our friends and depending on how that turns out we might end up going to Kersey Valley as well
thanks, I hope it is , yeah I've already hit the waiver wire I'm just hoping that with some luck there isn't a repeat of last week where I didn't get one of the players I was trying to pick up that I needed because of my injured RB's because of someone with a higher waiver ranking than me putting in a claim on that player the same day, this week I'm facing off against the Pink Yeti and if the projected score is any indication I might actually win my first game, you too, later.
