16-0 WOOOO HOOOO

Well after much screaming, yelling, and a near heart attack I survived last night's game to see the Pats go undefeated. Amazing!

Not only did drafting several of the Pats help me win my fantasy football league, they also went 16-0 which is much cooler than me winning my league. It's amazing! Those '72 Dolphins must be pissed.

All I know is that Brady, Moss, and Welker totally rocked it last night. And the defense came up with some pretty good plays. I was really happy to see Hobbs interception, but I had been hoping all night Samuel was going to get at least 2. But whatever, it wasn't perfect, but they won! Now let's hope we can win to get to the Superbowl!!!

OMG!

I can't believe it, but somehow I actually pulled off the win this week in fantasy football even though my quaterback only got me 3.75 points!! YEY! I was convinced the 5th place player was going to take me out, but somehow I managed to get about 15 more points that him. Usually Brady and Moss get me the points each week. But this week it was the Pats defense who came up big - 21 points big. And my other players did pretty well too Brandon Marshall, Jamal Lewis, Aaron Stecker, Jason Witten, Reggie Williams, and Adam Vinatieri. So now I am in the final round competing against the #2 person in the league. Pats have to come up big against Miami this week! Go Pats!

Squish the Fish (remember that from 86?) ha ha

Damn! 14-0

Well on the one hand I am sooooo excited the Patiots are 14-0 - how cool is that? Second team ever to do that? WOO HOOO

I LOVE that in the post game press conference some reporter asked Brady if he wanted a jacket and Brady said "yea no shit" on live tv! Fantastic! I was suprised they didn't bleep that out. Pretty funny. Now Moss is talking. He's a good speaker for a football player after a game. But what's up with the shirt he's wearing? It looks like a janitor shirt! (with 4 carat diamon earrings?) LOL

OK... so he just confirmed it.. It really IS a janitors shirt!

On the other hand I am so upset about this weather.. My fantasy team was playing in the playoffs. Last week I had the bye - which was cool but we did so well on points and it didn't matter! Now this week when it matter and I am ranked #1 in the league playing the 5th seed - the pats score me NO points (well except the defense YEY!) but WTF this sucks. There are still a few games to play today for my other fantasy players, but I don't think it will be enough to pull off the win.

Taken out by the 5the 5th seed player :(

Looking forward to Spring...

It isn't even winter yet, and I am already looking forward to spring. This weather sucks. Somerville hasn't even plowed my road! I haven't heard a plow all night long, where are they?? I thought they were supposed to be better after the last storm? I know there are less cars on the road today, so where the hell are the plows? The only vehicle I have heard is the firetruck leaving the station across the street from my house.

Since I'm stuck in my house I started checking out the new spring shoe collections. I mean what else is there to do until 1pm when the Pats start playing?

And I am seriously concerned about the game with this weather - mainly because I am in the playoffs in my Fantasy Football league. I had the bye last week - which was cool, but the Pats did awesome. Now in this weather... who knows I'm worried. I may lose in the playoffs. I have been #1 in the league with wins and points and now I could loose because of a stupid storm!!! ARGH!!! I have Brady, Moss, Pats defense, and I play Gaffney today too! I could be screwed. I know the Pats play well in bad weather, but this is *really* bad weather.

Ok back to shoes I can't stress about that any more until 1pm. Then I will really start stressing...

so one of Prada's new spring wedges is super cute. They have it in Black and Silver. I think I want the Silver one. The black one is cute too, but I have a lot of black shoes. I need to pre-order it Bergdorf's and Neiman's have it. Ohh and I have a $50 Neiman's gift card.. Sweet!

Pats Rule!

YEY! That was a much easier game to watch today!!!! Go Pats!! Tom Brady threw 4 TDs - these are the kinds of games I expect to see from the Pats. Stopping Pittsburgh on the 1 yard line was amazing. That's the defense I expect to see!! 13-0 baby!!!!!!

In the press conference with Belichick after the game someone said something like "wow Moss caught almost all his passes for 1st downs, what do you think about that?" He replies with "yea he's been doing that all year." I love the responses. Ha.

Luckily in one of my leagues I had the bye week since I'm in first place, so Pats you need to do great again next week!! :)

OH and Randy Moss was named AFC Offensive Player of the Month for November - Sweet! WTG!

Tonight's the Night....

Ok Pats...

First let's win! Let's keep the winning streak alive!!

Second get me some good points for my fantasy team! I have Brady, Moss, and the Pats D. Last week I barely won - I only had 99.75 points (luckily my opponent had less)- compared with the 142.66 I got the week before. I did get a bit whiney last week about my near loss and was called on it: http://www.universalhub.com/node/11584- Ok maybe I was a bit extreme :P

Right now I only have 32.45 points this week I definitely quite a bit more to win.

In fantasy the playoffs start next week and since I'm #1 in my league I get the bye - which is good I hope.

And shit!! Watson dropped the ball no TD only a FG... What's up with the dropped / missed balls again this week? After such great games of amazing catches - now it seems we are missing more than we catch.

I think I misspoke last week.. this is the worst game ever. I have scared my poor kitties screaming so much!

I am really just shocked how this game has gone. It is just insane. I feel like I am having a heart attack.

I just cannot believe it. Holy Shit. WOW. I need to take a vallium.

Pats still undefeated. Amazing.

Worst. Game. Ever.

OMG this Pats game is the worst ever. WTF is going on?? and what's up with the bullshit pass interference call on Randy Moss when he caught that touchdown. Even Madden didn't see that it was pass interference. Then they missed the extra point. Fantastic. Then on a 4th down they try to pass and don't convert. why can't anyone catch the ball tonight either? UGH this sucks.

Sunday, November 18, 2007

Man, I love the Patriots!

Randy Moss is just amazing. An article I read on ESPN.com this year said that it "appears that Moss is playing against holograms, the ball goes through them and he catches it". It's totally amazing. Tom Brady just throws it up there and he gets it.

And the Celtics are doing better than they have in years... It's a really good year to be a Bostonian!

Now I really need my fantasy team to win this week, last week was the Pats bye week and I lost horribly, all my backups sucked.

go Pats!!!!!!!

Week 10 has come.

What to do, what to do. Week 10 has come.

Four of my players on my fantasy football team are on the Patriots. Basically I drafted the Patriots. Week 10 is their bye week. Several of my backups are also on the bye. Shit that was poor planning!

I am 8-1 going into week 10.. I don't want to lose this week! :(

Sunday, November 4, 2007

Holy Shit!

I can't even believe the Pats came back from 20-10 to win 24-20!!!!!! Holy shit!!!!! Amazing. I'm still in shock. I feel like I am going to have a heart attack after that game. And I may not have my voice tomorrow.

Well so Indy didn't deserve to come back and win the AFC championship game, now we didn't deserve to come back and win this game. I guess we can call it even now. I feel better.

Randy Moss and Wes Welker came up HUGE today. HUGE.

I don't understand why Brady was so pissed and yelling at the end? Something happened. I am sure I will read about it tomorrow.

Now I need a valium.

What is happening to my Patriots?

WTF is going on with this game?!! Two interceptions on Brady? After 8 near perfect games?

Why are we falling apart every time we play Indy now? This kind of shit happened in the AFC championship last year. It's making me insane - I can barely watch this game and I may lose my voice from screaming.

I hate Peyton Manning. Why can't our defense stop them? They are totally sucking today. :( The only player doing anything well is Randy Moss. And now we were almost intercepted again. WTF. ARGH I really hate Indy. I hope we get rest next week on the bye and come back kicking ass again.

This game is making me crazy!

If it was possible to Love Tom Brady More...

Then that's how I feel today. I love Tom Brady! I love Vrabel. I love Randy Moss. I love the Patriots. It's 45-0 right now against the Redskins and we're in the 4th quarter. Tom Brady is on FIRE this season! Randy Moss catches the most insane passes. Passes no one has any business catching - somehow he does it. It's amazing.

Next week is the Colts now that is going to be a crazy game. The Pats better win I will be so pissed if Manning wins that game.



and in about an hour I can watch the Red Sox in game 4 of the World Series up 3-0 in the series.

It's an amazing season to be a Boston fan.

Update: 52-0 with 5 minutes left. Amazing.

Ok so with 3 minutes left the Redskins finally scored making it not completely a blowout. Making it 52-7.

I have a friend [and Rams fan - not sure why :P] that claims the Patriots only ever win by a field goal. That may have happened in some games, but not anymore. Oh and they tied a recond by the Rams today which I was quite happy to hear.

Who knew the Patriots were going to be their own Fantasy Football team this year? I should have just drafted the whole team!

Ummmmm WTF?

So what's up with the Miami /Giants regular season game being played today in England? Why England? And REALLY 0-6 MIAMI!??? I guess at least it's against the Giants who are doing pretty well. But that is like watching pros play against college students they are going to CRUSH Miami.

Are we trying to get the Europeans into American Football? Seems they are pretty rooted in Soccer - why would they suddenly latch onto American Football? As much as they try to get Americans into Soccer - it has never caught on here like it has in other countries. So why would it work the other way around? I mean I love football, I don't know why it's not popular worldwide - but I grew up on it so it's just embedded in me. And I DOUBT watching Miami - who frankly blows this year - will get people excited about football. Why not send the Patrtiots, the Cowboys, the Colts? A team that people would be EXCITED to see play?

And now Miami is going to be EVEN WORSE if that is possible - Ronnie Brown is out for the season - he needs surgery. I had him on my fantasty team - he was one of my big FP earners and now I had to draft someone else. Sucks. Lemon looks like he has potential to be a decent QB, and Miami does have Jason Taylor(maybe he should play for the Patriots next year??) but the team needs more than 2 decent healthy players. People want to see a close game - not a blowout. Maybe Miami can rally, but it's doubtful.

Wonder if the game is sold out, and how much the Brits will like it? Do they even know the rules of the game? The game is much more fun once you know what is happening. But whatever we'll see how it goes...

I LOVE Tom Brady

Have I said that before? I love Tom Brady. For so many reasons.

I have Tom Brady, Randy Moss, and the Patriots defense on my fantasy team. I wish I had drafted Wes Welker too.

the score is 42-7 and it's only HALFTIME WOOOO HOOOOOO

What's not to love?

Fox Fantasy Football SUCKS

Fucking Fox sports hosted by msn blows. It's the worst. I have been attempting to update my fantasty team for 45 minutes and I can't even get a page to load!

when I finally got the page to load and tried to change up who was on my bench and save the changes. I got a fucking server error. If you want to host fantasy sports you need to have enough servers to handle the bandwidth! WTF

Meanwhile my Yahoo team was a breeze to edit - even at 12:50. Perhaps I should have tried before 12:15 to update my team, but one would assume with a high speed internet connection I could actually update my team in a timely manor. What a fool I was. In the time I started this bitchy post - the game has started and the Patriots have already scored a touchdown a few minutes into the game.

I STILL can't get the stupid page to load. Fox Sucks. It even caused my browser to crash numerous times. AND I was running firefox and IE just to see which would come up first. Firefox crashed and closed the browser alltogether. I hate Fox sports right now.

I have been attempting to update my team for a FULL HOUR now. This is bullshit.

UPDATE: thank god the defense I was attempting to take off the bench wasnt playing until 4:15 so I was able to finally save my team update at 1:39 pm - one hour and 20 minutes after I started - WTG fox sports. you rock. grrrrrrr. The Pats got 2 tds and an interception during this whole thing and Miami even manage to score one. And by the time I was able to even finish typing this the Pats ran back a 75 yard kick for yet another TD.

PATS RULE!!!

Fantasy Football

First I have to start by saying I love Tom Brady. I loved him before this season. I loved him when Drew Bledsoe got injured and Tom had to step in. Ok now that - that's out of the way...

Last year in fantasty football I got screwed! My computer crashed during the draft AS I WAS DRAFTING BRADY! The world was clearly against me! Another person of course then drafted him out of spike for me ;) and then held it over my head proposing insane trades all season. I ended up with a bunch of so-so players on auto draft while I waited for my computer to restart. That SUCKED.

This year I was prepared. I had pre- selected who I wanted so if I had that failure auto draft would kick in and (hopefully) get me the people I wanted. Mostly Patriots players. Especially Brady and Moss. People laughed at me for drafting Moss claiming he was old, but I thought he would be good. So far he has been - although some weeks haven't been as great as others (fantasy points wise). Overall I am psyched he's doing so well for the Patriots and we're winning games! Plus he got that record of catching a TD every Monday night game he's every played.. WTG!

So this week Tom being the amazing quaterback that he is - got me 40 something points on fantasy! YEY! Yahoo sports is listing him as the #1 QB in fantasy football on the 'hot' list. I expected nothing less. It's gotta suck being on the 'not' list. Which Kurt Warner is on, but cut that guy a break - he has to be doing better than Matt Leinart was doing before he broke his shoulder or collarbone or whatever it was.

So now I don't know what I am going to do when the Patriots have a bye week - because 60% of my fantasy team is the Pats. I'm screwed. Right now I'm 5-1 - yey! But it's still early - there are 10 weeks left anything could happen. My backup players just aren't performing well enough to make up for the Pats. Hopefully I can afford to lose that game on the bye week....

WOO HOOO

Love those Patriots... 6-0 YEY!!!

Now if only my stupid matchup on Yahoo would refresh I would know how well my fantasy team did. I can only hope Brady, Moss and the NE Defense got lots of points for me!
