Hasselbeck to the Titans

Well don't really know how I feel about this one.  I think we paid too much unless we cut the guy after 2 years, which hopefully is the plan.  I got a feeling that the Titans aren't going to be playoff bound this year anyway so I would have been just as happy if they spent less money on an even more mediocre quarterback.  But enough about how my team is screwing up lets' talk about everyone elses.

San Francisco:
 They decided to roll the dice on Alex Smith for one more year, but I think we will be seeing Kaepernick behind center before the season is over. Also rumor has it that Frank Gore is going to hold out, for those of you that want to see Kaepernick take over the starting job this good news because without Gore in the backfield Smith is going to get crushed and placed on IR rather quickly.

Pittsburgh:  They are exceeding the cap limit by over 10 million and yet some how are going to resign Ike Taylor for another 4 years.  In order to get under the cap cuts will be made from the O-line since they haven't had one of those in years anyways.  Also rumor has it that Plaxico might be heading back to the Steel City not as a receiver but as a penal consultant for the team.  Someone to teach them how to make shanks, become someones bitch, and survive life on the inside.  Writing that made me smile :)

Patriots:
Big Fat Al has been traded from the Skins to the Pats for a fifth round pick.  Belichick better keep some treats in his pocket to get Haynesworth to play!  Tom Brady still sucks dong and no one likes New England, so moving on.

Cowboys:
The Cowboys seem to be cleaning house they have released Marion Barber, Roy williams, and Kicker: Kris Brown.  Lets hope that they take some of that money and buy an o-line for Romo otherwise it's back to Kitna and a sub- par season.

Bears:
The Bears have been pretty quite so far.  But give Cutler's EMO ass sometime and he will find something to wine about.  Devin Hester is sad because he wasn't able to get Santana Moss to come to Chicago and teach him how to be a mediocre wide receiver.  They lost Aroshamadododo to the Vikings, hopefully he will become irrelevant and I want have to say his name anymore.

Chiefs:
Only news with the chiefs is that they signed Steve Breaston to a five year deal.  They must feel after their deep playoff run last year that they have all the pieces in place to go all the way this year...  SMH.   Thank goodness they play in the AFC West Huh, Hull?

Football's Back Baby!!!

Well I just heard the news this morning that the players and owners have come to an agreement for a new CBA. This means to let the scramble begin in the NFL for free agency, resigning veteran players, and signing up the rookies.  This year looks to be a scramble of which team can pull it together in the shortest amount of time will be the team to come out on top and fantasy football should be no different.  Since the league's "timekeeper" otherwise known as Don has already contacted me twice so I knew that time was starting to run short.  So lets just get right to it.

The first game of the season is on September 8th.  We will look to draft on September 4th.  We will not need a buffer week this year assuming that no one else's old lady is knocked up.  I will be collecting dues from now until draft day. With nearly 6 weeks of advance notice it shouldn't be that difficult to come up with the money between now and then.  The dues are the same as last year $30 dollars.

Finally as always I would like to set up a pre-draft meeting to discuss the upcoming fantasy year (especially with all of the changes taking place).  For right now unless something changes I will scedule the meeting for August 7th and hopefully there will be some football to watch that day.

So just to sum it up:

Pre-draft meeting:  Aug. 7th
Draft:  Sept. 4th
Dues:  $30



The Depressing Shit

For those of you that didn't know Brad passed away in June.  I decided to try and keep this thing going and hopefully not screw it up too badly.  I'm going to try to run this blog the same way he did, so if anything I write offends don't get mad me at me, Brad told me to write it.  Or as Brad would say "Who gives a fuck what you think."  Anyways lets move on from the depressing shit and start talking about how many different ways I'm going to kick your all's asses.
