In Feb 2006 I made the biggest move of my life. I left sunny So Cal and landed in fabulous NYC. Not knowing how long I would stay or how well I would adjust I just went with it and am determined to enjoy every moment I can. This blog will chronical my NY experiences and hopefully highlight the reasons I decided to make such a daring move. Enjoy!!!

Unbelievable

I know this somewhat off topic...but MY lord...I had to blog about it.

I play fantasy football...most of you know I am a football freak! I am more into it then most guys I know...lol But I love the game, the competition, and the loyalty that follows...

I had a weird week in the fantasy world. I haven't done well so far as my players keep getting injured during the game, but it's still fun....here was what happened...maybe some of you can relate to how crazy this is...

1. Note that three of my players play tonight in MNF...so I will gain more points.
2. Kevin Jones is my receiver and plays for Detroit. He isn't my superstar by far, but I can count on him for 5-10 pts each week. He was injured during the game and carted off just like Brett and McNabb were...Sad day in football.
3. My opponent's players went OFF! And I mean OFF! He scored 135 pts total yesterday. I scored 35! :( His receiver, L. Tomlinson scored 41 pts ALONE. Yes folks...that is more than what I have scored so far. I'm like wow!
4. I have three players on the field tonight (E.Manning, M.Jones-Drew, and J.Feely). There is no way on God's green turf that I can score 100 pts with these guys.

So...as much as I want to hate the sucker who I was matched up with this weekend, I can't. I have to give him the much deserved kudos that he deserves. I'm in shock. I have only seen something like this once before...and I was on the happier end of it. My first season playing fantasy I had McNabb, Westbrook, and a bunch of hot players. McNabb was on FIRE that year and even though then lost the big ring he scored me 55 pts one game ALONE. I scored 130 pts that week and was dancing like a little girl with her first barbie! HA! Yes, I just said babie folks....lol I remember winning that first fantasy season and having a smile plastered on my face for doing so well. Of course, it was my first year and I had the help of my football guru, Vini on the southside. He was a serious player and would bet thousands of dollars on fantasy leagues each season. I am, of course, tackling fantasy without him this season, so its no wonder I suck!

Its all in good competitive fun.....Way to go Mr. Roussell who calls his team the 'New England Patriots'. Kind of ironic considering the Pats beat the shit out of my Packers yesterday too.

On that note...Say a prayer for my Brett. He hurt himself yesterday and *might* be out for Monday's game against the Seahawks. :( No bueno!!!!
