Blogtown Fantasy Football Week 2
Sep 19th, 2007 | By art rogers | Category: FunHere are the standings so far.
Feel free to claim your team and talk your smack now.
The highlighted team, the Ramblin’ Wreckers, would be me. I would be 2-0, except Joe Ball in week 1 had Randy Moss go insane with like 183 yards of receiving and 80 some odd points. Grrr.
That’s why they play the games. :)
I’m gonna mount a comeback, though. 200+ points this last week. Yeah baby.

I can’t talk smack or I will be accused of looking at the speck in the eye of my brother! :)
I’m just glad to be on the top of the list. I don’t expect it to last, but at least for now, you are all trapped in the Matrix.
ESPN up-to-the-minute. ESPN first reported the game of the week (I think it will be on ESPNUDeportes2) as the game of #1 v. #2 – The Matrix v. TheNOTS. They also further reported that ALL TheNOTS were seen taking a red pill earlier this week. Further investigation has revealed that the pill was not any banned substance or illegal drug…it is, in fact, a combination of Sola Spirit and Re-formed reality. This so upset The Matrix that it had an identity crisis. Taking on the persona of one Morpheus, it replied, “Welcome to the Real World.” TheNOTS, for all their stellar performance to this point in the season, have but one reply…
“Dodge this.” :-D
Sola Gratia!
The great part of that win with Randy Moss is that I had planned to put him on the do not draft list prior to drafting. That oversight on my part lead to one sweet victory in week one.
Do you hear that, Mr. Gordon? That is the sound of inevitability.
It seems that you’ve been living two lives. One life, you’re Scott Gordon, pastor for a respectable church in Shawnee OK. You have a social security number, pay your taxes, and you… help your chairman of deacons visit shut-ins. The other life is lived in computers, where you go by the hacker alias “Ronaldus Magnus”, manage a fantasy football team called “TheNOTS” and are guilty of virtually every fantasy roster crime we have a law for. One of these lives has a future, and one of them does not.
I’m going to enjoy watching you lose, Mr. Gordon.
It is inevitable.
The Matrix.
Whoa.
Excellent! That reply was primo, dude! (yeah, weak departure to Bill & Ted’s)…
To my fellow blogtown ffl-ers:
The Matrix is a team, Everyone. That team is our enemy. But when you’re inside, you look around, what do you see? Quarterbacks, running backs, wide receivers, defenders. The very minds of the players we are needing to save. But until we do, these players are still a part of that team and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these players are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the team, that they will fight to protect it.
Let us be determined to unplug the Matrix! Oh, and may the best team win.
Remember, be excellent to each other! :-)
Mr. Gordon, welcome back. We missed you.
The Matrix
Thank you. As quoted from my ESPN.com….interview:
“Fate it seems is not without a sense of irony…The Matrix is everywhere. It is all around us. Even now, in this very stadium. You can see it when you look out your press box window or when you turn on your telestrator. You can feel it when you go to practice… when you go to the press conference… when you pay your tribute. It is the dynasty that has been pulled over your eyes to blind you from the truth.”
Congratulations, Agent Thompson!
Sola Gratia!
