Why Hockey Fans Shouldn’t Play Fantasy Football…

There are certain things in life that some of us just shouldn’t do, for example I shouldn’t write movies… Christine has informed me of this many times… ( I always want to make everybody a killer, even the little kid with the ice cream ) and Christine probably isn’t cut out for the Military. There are less extremes to this of course where certain hobbies should be left alone.. I’m really not going to ever be a world class scrap booker. I would like to state right now.. that Hockey players probably shouldn’t play Fantasy Football… it’s just not healthy for there delicate ego’s.

Christine and I have fired up a fantasy football league this year with a couple of our friends one of those guys, ( Keith of Brightsyde )just happens to be a hockey player.. after a deceiving start his true skills are starting to shine through. After a close lost yet ultimately humiliating defeat last weekend to Christine ( nothing worst then losing to a girl especially when you talk as much trash as my cuz does ) he was matched up with Eric ( also of Brightsyde ) who throughly humiliating him.. 313 to 154. He is now on a three game losing streak that personally I don’t think he can pull himself out of, ( after all he is a hockey player and doesn’t hockey give a point for a tie so it’s not like winning is really valued all that much in that sport ). It seems that hockey players probably shouldn’t play fantasy football.. then again.. if they didn’t the rest of us would be forced to well….. beat up on the girls. I do however have to give some props to Christine she is now tied for first place in her division and owns all the tie breakers, however the fact her league has a hockey player says a lot about the level of competition. It reminds me of how USC wins a lot in the pathetic 10 err I mean the PAC 10 in college football.

Keith the Director got all philosophical

let’s see where to begin with this garbage. I attribute the demise of my team not to the lack of talent I have, but due to the nature of the idiot who allows punt returners to outscore great positon players by 100 points because he decided to screw up and allow then to earn 1 point for every yard they make. Not only doing this, but failing to tell anyone about it before all the available returners are already gone by him and uhem someone else ironically. To have the best Qb in the game throw for 377 yards and 4 touchdowns and earn 52 points and not come close to the 122 points put up by antwan randel el when he only colected 67 yards on 13 receptions in his actual position play is a travesty to the game of fantasy football. As I look back at the games I lost, I would have won 2 of the 3 at least if it weren’t for such a ridiculous scoring system. Oh and the fact I’m a hockey plaeyer has nothing to do with this so leave the best sport in the free world alone already )

I would just like to point out that only keith had this problem.. he is the only one who didn’t read the scoring rules as they were open for everybody. )

I did not select any returns players either, I traded or got them in FA… ok maybe 1 returner but he was a decent WR also. I don’t know.. maybe hockey players just don’t pay attention to detail. lol.

I never saw the scoring rules…I assumed they coincide with just about every other scoreing system known to man according to fantasy football )

Oh and hockey players pay attention to more important details. In fact you need to pay attention more playing hockey than you do football )

When it comes to Christopher, you know he has to get in there and tinker around with everything… for example… last weekend, I left him alone in my bedroom while I was in the bathroom trying to put on a corsette and garter (now, if you’ve never put on a corsette before– let me explain– it’s a major ordeal). So I come out fifteen minutes later and see the boy, sitting naked, at my computer. He proceeds to bang the living daylights outta me, make himself some coffee, we watch some t.v., and he goes home. The next morning, I get up and go to my computer… and everything is different. The screensaver is different… I now have the newer version of firefox, my Pandora radio stations have multiplied to include (under my favorites) bands I’ve never even heard of… You simply can’t leave the boy alone without his natural tendency to want to improve things taking over. It simply isn’t possible. -)

yo, even though the league is skewed by a major overlook of the usual rules i believe it is still competitive, then again i am stacked so ofcourse i see it that way only one dickhead can out score me and that’s my boy so it’s all good d

Week 10-14 4 wins in-a-row, not to mention the highest scorer in the last 3 in-a-row. As well as moving up the food chain from 5th or 6th place to second in the entire league to earn a 1st round bye. Oh my? Is that why hockey players play fantasy football?

When you lock up your playoff spot as early as I do.. you can shut down your team and rest up for when it counts.. however.. I can understand you scraping for every point.
