SoSG Fantasy Football Update, Week 8 (And Week 9 Smack Thread)

I am writing this from a hole in the ground. Where there is no light. And I am still drunk. And I don't feel much like posting just yet.

(Actually, I had a really tough week at work too--but hey, if there was a week to hibernate, I figured this was probably it.)

Mr. LA SF is also underneath a table somewhere, so let me give a quick recap of last week's efforts:

Spanky 72, Neeebs' Mom 54
Mr. Customer 129, Meanie Breanie 103
Steve Dittmore 66, Mr. LA SF 53
Dusty Baker 122, Karina 68
Paul 82, Nic J 44

Today gives us an extra hour of smacktalking. Fire up, people!

UPDATE 9:16a: Now with more Mr LA SF content!

Baseball is over, and there's not much left to talk about. So let's talk about football! Because why not!

Prof. Dittmore 66 (6-2) - MLASF 53 (2-6): The Professor takes advantage of my B-team (I had five players on byes) thanks to a late rally by Andre Johnson's 16 points in Monday Night Football. I had 14 points from both Ryan Fitzpatrick and Maurice Jones-Drew go for naught.

Spanky 72 (4-4) - Jason 54 (2-6): The Spankster moves back to .500 thanks to 22 points from rookie LaGarrette Blount and 15 points from the Rams' defense. Chris Johnson hauled 13 points for Jason, but no other player could reach double figures.

Mr. Customer 129 (4-4) - Meaniebreanie 103 (3-5): Mr. C gets his revenge from his juggernaut opening week loss thanks to a staggering seven double-digit showings. BenJarvus Green-Ellis led the way with 24 points, and Antonio Gates followed with 18. MB saw Brandon Lloyd snag 22 points and Terrell Owens add 18 to the mix, but it wasn't enough.

Dusty Baker 122 (7-1) - Karina 68 (5-3):  In a battle of the top seeds, Dusty cam out on top.  Arian Foster took 22 points in for DB, and Peyton Manning added 18. Jamaal Charles gave Karina 23 points, and Adrian Peterson took 20, but no other player had double-digits.

Paul 82 (5-3) - NicJ 54 (2-6):  Nic can't catch a break, suffering his sixth straight loss, while Paul continues his drive for first in the western division. A monster 28 point outburst from Calvin Johnson propelled the new father, while Philip Rivers added 18 points. Tom Brady's 13 points and Percy Harvin's 12 were the crux of Nic's offense.

Week 9 gets Jason vs. MLASF, Spanky vs. Mr C, Paul vs. MB, Nic vs. Dusty, and Karina vs. Ditty. Hopefully, we can answer that immortal question, "If there's no baseball being played, does SoSG make a sound?"

NicJ said...

if anyone cares.

Nostradamus said...

@rbnlaw

AJAX!

karina said...

@NicJ not yet ;)

spank said...

There's my Touchdown.

Nostradamus said...

@karina

I did send him some good-natured trash talk, and he was characteristically gracious. Chelsea's got a ways to go before they have to sweat their position in the table.

Nostradamus said...

I'll be damned, this is gonna be close.

spank said...

Come on Cowboys. Don't go down like chumps.

spank said...

I am going to killKillKILL your Cowboys,Meanie.

MeanieBreanie said...

Spank
You are not alone. Judging by some comments from FB friends they are going to face a lynching mob back in Dallas.

MeanieBreanie said...

Cowboys have given me just 2 lousy points. That's an all time low.

THEY SUCK!

karina said...

a couple of things:

earlier today, I saw footage of a very young (and handsome,I've got to say) Steve Sax and my heart just imploded of pure love. I guess it was nostalgia...in that times they wouldn't have allowed you know who do you know what.

(sighs)

on the other hand, you know how the Phillies got Victorino?because he had a great season with Aguilas and he wasn't protected. The Dodgers should get Mastroianni and forget Pods. Mr. Colletti, you should get yourself on a plane and see him playing.

just sayin'

spank said...

Mr.Cs' Packers D has all your points.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Listen. Just listen. You hear that?

That's the sound of Wade Phillips getting fired.

MeanieBreanie said...

LASC
Let's hope so.

spank said...

Just score one more touchdown Dallas. That is all I am asking for.

MeanieBreanie said...

Unbelievable, too many men on the field. Dallas keeps sinking to new lows.

rbnlaw said...

Too bad DB is nowhere to be found.

The EPL is resembling the NFL with its parity these days.

Moar beer!

spank said...

Another touchdown missed by a player of mine.

rbnlaw said...

Say, how're mah 'Boyz doin'? The Packers ain't shit.

[/sarcasm]

karina said...

I'm gonna lose again for the third time in a row

(cries)

spank said...

Congrats Mr.C.

*hangs head in defeat and in disgust of Kitna

NicJ said...

im about to break my 6 game losing streak.

MeanieBreanie said...

Karina
You are not alone. I'm right with ya sista. What's sad is that my record is still better than the Cowboys.

spank said...

HaHa. MeanieBreanie is in the name changing business. Welcome.

karina said...

@Meaniebreanie I'm with you on this.

rbnlaw said...

Why do I feel like it's 9:00?

MeanieBreanie said...

Damn ESPN filters wouldn't let me word it the way I wanted. And they don't take symbols.

@#$%^*!

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

I don't know why Bill Cowher would want to be part of this mess.

MeanieBreanie said...

I feel the need for a stiff drink. Who's with me?

spank said...

Meanie
You gotta be slick to get it by. There are ways. Word it different.

rbnlaw said...

Hey, I just saw karina's post about (the real) Steve Sax.

Someday, I'll tell you the story of a friend of mine (female) who had a "rendezvous" with Mr. Sax on the way to San Diego.

MeanieBreanie said...

Spank
I tried a number of ways. That was the only one I could get to work.

@LASC
It's going to take a LOT OF MONEY to convince ANYONE to take it on.
(cries)

MeanieBreanie said...

@RB
Are you saying we have an imposter? Oh crush a girl even more.

karina said...

@rbnlaw hahahahaha though we all could agree that professional athletes are very prone to womanizing ways and ball players get top marks on that ;)

specially if they are good-looking successful big leaguers

karina said...

I want to hug you, sistah

MeanieBreanie said...

Thanks Karina. I could use a hug. A big one right back at ya!

MeanieBreanie said...

RB
You're a tease. Do tell!

NicJ said...

damn, Lakers schooling the Blazers.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Brandon Roy only has eight points.

NicJ said...

steve blake is throwing passes of the backboard.

spank said...

I couldn't even get a field goal out of these mutts.

MeanieBreanie said...

The boys scored a whopping 5 points for the T&A Deflators.
(cries)

spank said...

They scored 18 for the Grossman.

Thanx Cowboys!

NicJ said...

i got a booming 14 points out of Dez Bryant.

Which i used to defeat the 1st place Stat Lickers of Los Angeles.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Dusty has had two bizarre losses.

karina said...

If I lose, it's the Redskins fault and my fault to trust them

(cries)

spank said...

I tend to bring down my opponent to my level. Except when I play P.Ditty who I also happen to play next week.

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

Frank McCourt was going to do this Undercover Boss thing, but the network executives thought six bodyguards surrounding a stadium usher would be a dead giveaway.

NicJ said...

well that and the fact that he wasnt going to get paid for the usher work

Mr. LA Sports Czar said...

If it were Frank, he'd have taken those hot dogs out of the trash and sold them again.

spank said...

Even with a disclaimer and self imposed "censorship" my shit sounds messed up.But I have to say in simpler, more "politically correct" terms:

I did not know Peyton Hillis is caucasian.

It blew my mind when I found out.SERIOUSLY.

Nostradamus said...

Peyton Hillis is Caucasian?

Nostradamus said...

Good god, the Packers D keeps scoring even when the game has been over for hours.

Nostradamus said...

8 were the first fumble recovery/touchdown, I believe.

spank said...

I didn't see it but I think you mentioned something about it in a comment yesterday.

In other news: Austin Collie was sitting upright.

spank said...

Here's the 411 on Mr.Cs' twentyfuckingeight point Packers D:
TD,2INT,2FR,7PA and who knows how many sacks.

Basically they kicked the Cowboys and mine collective ass.

One last time: Thanx Cowboys!

MeanieBreanie said...

Epale Y'all
Are you ready for some Monday night football?

MR.F said...

Epale MB! I guess nobody was ready for Monday Night Football =(.

spank said...

I really want to put a red cape on Meanies' dog. PLEASE! Let Me!

Somebody wake me up at 6a.m.

*takes a MegaShot of Sunny Brook then "acquires" and burns neighbors 49ers flag

Fred's Brim said...

MB, I guess you and every other C'boys fan got their wish. And Garrett's been waiting in the wings for a while now, so hopefully the change will be good.

I know they have a game lead, but who will end up with the worse record, the Bills or Cowboys?

MeanieBreanie said...

FB - Phillips firing is something that should have happened some time ago. Jones had to make the change. The city was about to lynch him and the entire team.

While Garrett is well liked and respected in Dallas, many including myself don't see him as head coach material(yet). I'm hoping he delivers a pleasant surprise. If the Cowboys improve this season it will come from some major attitude and play adjustment. It starts from within the players themselves. I want the team to improve but I wouldn't be shocked if the Bills fare better.
(cries)

I'm heading to Dallas for several days. I'm curious what the local media has to say, Dale Hansen in particular.

MeanieBreanie said...

Spank
You can put a red cape on my dog under two conditions:
1)you catch her
2) if you can actually get the thing on her

GOOD LUCK!
