Week 22 Blurb
Welcome Back!Sunday, August 7th
Football is back and we're almost ready to start up the 2011-12 JRA Football Season. I'm really looking forward to it and hope you are too. We're currently finishing up some major tweaks to the site, including a big adjustment in our appearance. Things should be done within the next week or two and I'll be sending out an official email to let you know when we're ready. Until then, start getting back into the betting mindset. Think of it as a training camp for your upcoming JRA Football season. Can you make it down the stairs faster than that person waiting for the elevator? Bet $5 on it!...Think Ben Roethlisberger can't make it though Training Camp without raping anyone? Find your closest Steelers fan and wager a 6-pack...Hell, walk up to the nearest diehard Chargers fan you know and ask them who their starting middle linebacker is. Actually, that's not a bet. That's just funny. Good luck with the Takeo Spikes era, San Diego! You'll need it.
A Message From The Champ: TigersLovePepperHateCinnamonMonday
Wow!!! I really didn't expect this...I mean winning an award like this while playing with so many great fantasy players is quite an honor. To end up on top of a league like this is humbling. Very Humbling. First I'd like to thank the Baby Jesus for obvious reasons. Secondly I'd like to thank Al Gore for inventing the internet so that we all have this wonderful forum where folks from all over the country can get together and compete every week. I'd also like to thank my family for their unwavering love and support, the Black-Eyed Peas for confirming to the world what I already knew (that they are indeed the worst band on the planet), Slash for selling out even more than anyone thought possible by playing a halftime show with the worst band on the planet, Jerry Jones for spending so much money for a stadium only to have 1200 people show up with legit tickets and be turned away because two of the sections in the stadium were so unsafe the Fire Marshal wouldn't allow anyone to sit there (nice job, Jerry. Everything is bigger in Texas including the ineptitude of NFL owners), Christina Aguilera for the best Cindi Lauper costume at the Super Bowl, George Rowland because, well he's George Rowland dammit, the Philadelpha Eagles for sucking so bad against the Vikings in week 16 that it bankrupted 3/4 of the JRA league leaving only 5 people for me to have to beat the rest of the way, Big Ben Roethlisberger for laying an egg in the biggest game of the year, never could have done it without you, (Uh oh I have to hurry here they just hit me with the Kenny G music, I'm about to be kicked off stage)... Thanks to Burrito and the Commissioner for consistently screwing up their Lock of the week picks all season and giving me the teams I shouldn't bet on each week you guys are the best, to the little kid in the Darth Vader costume who gave us the best commercial of the super bowl, Eminem for saving the entire city of Detroit and bringing it back from the depths of hell, Sam Elliot (aka the guy from the movie Road House) who gave us such a memorable history of both the Steelers and Packers right before kickoff although it would have been better if he had been roundhouse kicking someone in the head while doing it, and last but not least, in all seriousness, thanks to Jon Rowland and Mr. Jeff Judson (aka JRA Football techncial support) for running a tight ship all year and making this the most enjoyable fantasy league going. Looking forward to next season (if the NFL doesn't blow it and lock out) where I will continue my world domination. Seacrest...OUT!!! -TigersLovePepperHateCinnamon, 2010-11 JRA Football Champion Super Bowl Wrap-UpSunday Evening
