Hey Brah

Fantasy Football: Week 1 is done!

apphoto
The past few days have been very stressful for those of us who compete in fantasy football leagues. Week 1 of the 2009 NFL season began early on a Thursday afternoon and did not end until late on a Monday night. So now that week 1 is officially complete for the NFL and Fantasy Football, what have we learned?

The Obvious:
1. Adrian Peterson is the player we knew he was!

2. Drew Brees put up huge numbers as he has the past couple of years. Don’t expect this every week from him. I mean come on it was the Lions.

3. Tom Brady doesn’t lose. Put him between a rock and a hard place and he will figure out how to make lemonade without the necessary ingredients.

The Not So Obvious:
1. Donovan McNabb conveniently gets injured in week 1, so when Vick starts in week 3 there is no controversy.

2. Bush scored a rushing TD. No not Reggie, Michael Bush of the Oakland Raiders. The Raiders looked like a team that had actually seen a football before unlike the previous 5-10 seasons. But who is counting, I tell you who is not, Al Davis!

3. Jay Cutler was told that he actually got traded to the Packers and Jake Delhomme thought he could get a roster spot with the Eagles. So they threw it to the green jerseys. 4 ints. each Congrats guys!
Need a Player? Check out these players on the waiver wire:

Take a shot:

QB- Trent Edwards vs. TB, Edwards put up good numbers vs. a tough NE def. Good weapons, short passes, Romo tore up TB def.

RB- Michael Bush vs. KC, Bush saw a lot of action vs. SD, OAK off. will run the ball on KC def who gave up 198 yds. rushing to Bal. Cable has instilled a new attitude in his offensive line.

WR- Nate Burleson vs. SF, Burleson had 7 receptions vs. a weak STL def, but double teams will go towards Housh and Carlson leaving Burleson one on one.

TE- Benjamin Watson vs NYJ, Watson’s value has clearly skyrocketed with the return of Brady, Brady has a ton of weapons but when the game was on the line he went to his Big, Athletic TE.

K- Shaun Suisham vs. STL, Suisham will get his opportunities vs the STL def. unless Washington just scores TD after TD.

DEF- ATL def. vs CAR, ATL def. caused a ton of turnovers, CAR off. turned the ball over a ton.

Be Wary:

QB: Brodie Croyle vs. OAK, Croyle put up decent numbers, but will sit as soon as Cassel is ready to play.

RB: Willis McGahee vs. SD, McGahee put up big numbers, but he is the 3rd option in BAL.

WR: Justin Gage vs. HOU. Gage had a great game against PIT, but TEN will be running a lot vs. the HOU def.

TE: Shawn Nelson vs. BUF. Nelson scored a TD this week, but he was not a main target whatsoever.

K: Jason Hanson vs MIN, Hanson probably won’t get too many shots vs. MIN def.

DEF: SEA def. vs. SF, Seattle had a weak opponent in week 1, look for them to give up some points this week against an improved SF off.

Injury Watch:
L. Tomlinson- may not play this week due to a sprained ankle.
D. McNabb- fractured rib means pain, pain, pain. Doubtful!
M. Cassel- going to be a game time decision.
A. Gonzalez- Sprained PCL. No Chance!
T. Polamalu- Torn PCL. Call back in a month.
B. Urlacher. –Dislocated bone in his wrist. Out for the season!

Madden Curse rubbing off on other game titles?

2k32

It has been reported that Brian Urlacher has had season ending wrist surgery today.This is just a mere 6 years after being on the cover of NFL 2K3. Is this just a coincidence? I think not. On that note, how about the Sports Illustrated curse? Oklahoma State University learned the hard way as they graced the cover of the magazine early last week and then they proceeded to lose to the University of Houston 45-35 this past weekend. Players and teams need to be warned about these curses, STAY AWAY from the spotlight!

Madden Curse 2010???

212659-madden-2010-cover1

The Madden Curse is 50% true thus far this season. Troy Polamalu is out for 3-6 weeks with a sprained MCL. Will the curse hold true for Larry Fitzgerald? I honestly hope not; since I have him in 2 Fantasy leagues. Madden 2010 please Spare Fitz for at least the span of the regular season. Any thoughts on this?

This is why you always keep your Helmet on before, during and after a game…


So if you have ever played football, I’m sure a coach has told you to always keep your helmet on. Other than being penalized or pissing the coach, this is another example of why you should do so. Does Blount have a future in MMA?

How to… “Have a Great Friday”

Hello All,

This is Article #2 in my “How to..” series. I am going to explain how you have a great Friday in college even if you have class.

Required Materials:

  • Class @ 2pm on Friday’s
  • Friends that like breakfast and casual drinks
  • A friend that will show up no matter what
  • An ATM card to Purchase a Handle (64Oz) of Jager
    jagermeister-bottle-thumb1

Step 1: wake up  @ 10 am to a phone call asking you to meet a friend for breakfast.

Step 2: Agree to breakfast, show up, find out your friend is drinking with his GF, order Breakfast and an Alcoholic Beverage.

Step 3: Have 2 more Drinks and a Train shot ( Train shot= Anytime the train passes by shots are $1.00)

Step 4: Feeling pretty Buzzed call people to join you. (Drunk Dialing, LOL) Get at least one person to join the before noon drunkfest

Step 5: Finish Breakfast and drinks, now the party has grown to 4 people.

Step 6: Immediately walk to the Liquor store right next door to the restaurant, Purchase handle of Jager.

Step 7: Take Handle of Jager Back to Apt. Note that it is 12:30 pm and class starts @ 2pm. Also note that handle of Jager contains 64 oz of liquid.

Step 8: Start taking shots of Jager with the intent of still going to class. 6 Shots later decide it is a good idea to try and finish the bottle with 4 people.

Step 9: Everyone has + or - 10 shots each. Finish bottle @ 1:55pm.  Ask friend to drop you off @ class because you are too drunk to run to class.

Step 10: walk into class 10 mins. late, realize teacher is not there. Go outside then walk back inside and tell the class the teacher is not coming. Invite entire class to the bar.

Step 11: Rally the troops begin to walk outside. Teacher shows up 20 mins late in a 50 min class. Talk her into letting the class go home because half the class had left already. Cont. to bar. Take one shot and ask another firend for a ride home. Stop at Liquor store Purchase Handle of Taaka Vodka. Go home.

Step 12: Take shot of Taaka Vodka. Pass out around 4 pm. Don’t wake until 8 am Saturday Morning.

Step 13: Refreshed from your Slumber repeat Steps 1-12 on Saturday without having to go to class.

I hope this is helpful to everyone. I really enjoyed this series of events and I hope you do too!

Godspeed,

Livin’ The Dream

How to…… “The Beginning”

Hello All,

In an effort to add unique and useful content to this site I have decided to create a “How to… “series. I understand that there are plenty of places to go on the web to for this type of information; however I believe that the information that I plan to post will truly be “unique” to a majority of the users who read it. With that being I said I will write my first “How to…” article:

*Please note: All of my How to… articles are written from personal experiences. Seriously!

How to do a Class Presentation… WASTED!

Required Materials:

  • Must Be 21 yrs old* Do not attempt this unless you are at least 21 years old
  • College Classroom that is walking distance from your home or apt.
  • Group Presentation
  • Care Free Attitude
  • Breathe Mints or Gum
  • Shot Glass
  • Bottle of Taaka Vodka
Taaka Vodka as close as you can get to Grey Goose for $6.50

Taaka Vodka as close as you can get to Grey Goose for $6.50

Now that you know everything that is required for this to work I will give you step by step instructions:

Step 1: Wake up @ 7 am. Drive to nearest liquor store. Purchase a fifth of Taaka Vodka.

Step 2: Drive Home. Take out a Shot glass. Pour the Vodka into the shot glass. Drink shot. Gag a little. Then shake it off.

Step 3: Pour a Second Shot. Turn on the shower. Contemplate what the hell you are doing. Then take the shot.

Step 4: Take your shower. Dry off. Pour Third Shot. Feel the warm alcohol soothe your empty stomach.

Step 5: Get dressed for your presentation. Pour 2 more shots. Wait for your friend to get there to take a shot with you and then walk to class. Est. wait  time 15 mins.

Step 6: Friend says no to shot. Take both shots yourself. Pour one for the walk to class. Drink last shot just before stepping onto school property. Put shot glass in back pocket.

Step 7: Don’t talk to anybody. Take Breathe mint. Walk into class like normal. Don’t trip on the front row of desks.

Step 8: Go up to the front of the class when your group is called. Take your place. Try not to sway back and forth and don’t mention to your group how wasted you are in front of teacher.

Step 9: Try to give the presentation without slurring your words. Take questions. Yell at the “smart ass” girl in the front of the class who is asking the most ridiculous questions in the world because she actually read the book and listened to the presentation.

Step 10: Calmly answer any question your professor may have. Leave the class with an “A”!

I truly hope this is helpful to anyone who would need more information on: “How to do a Class Presentation… WASTED!”

Enjoy!
