Back from lunch... The games are just about starting. To start off this afternoon, I just had a few more random thoughts, both (fantasy) baseball / non-baseball related. By the way, these random thoughts will soon be published as a free insert to Buffy's book, "How to Succeed in Fantasy Baseball Without Really... No, Check That... With Trying Really Hard (Except on Weekends  )" Name-related: - Why does Pork name his team Pork? What was a Satriale? Is that a store in the East Coast? - When is Bad Daddy officially changing his team name to Bad Daddy? Also, is Hot Rod a car reference or is it a built-in Woody joke? - Is SC's favorite character Sonny Corleone or is that his initials? I also agree with Buffy- I wonder why SC didn't pick up another nickname. - Whenever I see the restaurant, "Marcello's Father and Son" here in Chicago, it reminds me of FS. - What kind of black car does plaw drive? I bet it's nice! - I find it strangely amusing that there was a JJ5, a Double-J and a J all at the same time. - Lastly for Buffy, are you a Kristy Swanson or a Sarah Michelle Gellar type of girl?... On a related topic, Alyson Hannigan has come a long way from the geek in the first season of Buffy. I know Pork agrees!

I can't answer all but I can for a few or best guess. Regarding Buffy's upcoming book I understand it is to have a bronze cover with a big * on it. Also the original title was called Weekends - Crash and Burn.  I understand she is after PL to write a prolog for it. Regarding JGeoff using the name PORK - he thinks it will help get him 'chicks' Regarding me using Hot Rod - see above with JGeoff. Why didn't we give SC a nickname - we fear him. The kind of Black car PL drives - I understand it is a Yugo - but the upgraded model.

Hoy Cow DoucheMan!! It is clear to me you are needing your own place here pretty soon. The relatives are starting to get to you, no? Or maybe not enough numbers to crunch there at work? I know the answer to some of your questions but I am just so overwhelmed, I can't remember what you asked without scrolling upwards. Hard to do while eating a sandwich As for Buffy - no joke - I have never seen an episode of Vampire Slayer. I'm not a big TV watcher now that Melrose Place is off the air My old email address used to be PokerBuff@ ____, now my new one has the word Ni9erbuff (go Niners!  ) in it. Buff = Buffy, get it? I use Buffy on all my sports related sites. While we are on the subject of names, while Douche Bigalow is a VERY clever play on words from the movie....I can't help but wonder about your motivation. Nice Catholic boy like you. The "D" word is one of those un-necessary evils. I mean a shower and soap and water would suffice... :rolleyes:

You use "Hot Rod" thinking it will help get you JGeoff??  :p 
I studied Italian for 2 semesters. Not once was a "C" pronounced as a "G", and never was a trailing "I" ignored! And I'm from Jersey!  lol Whaddaya want me to do? Whack a guy? Off a guy? Whack off a guy? --Peter Griffin My DVDs | Facebook | Godfather Filming Locations

Here's a random thought: What about all the people who joined only to quit? What were they afraid of? The um, half hour :rolleyes: a day it takes to make up a decent roster? Can't be the trash talking...you girls are the tamest bunch of crows I have ever seen. And I think HH should be banned permanantly for basically giving Pork the bird (  ) by naming his team "Pork This". Wow, if that isn't in your face, I don't know what is And Bethie. You guys should be thanking her for finding something else to do with her time. She was giving a few of us a run for our money there a time or two and now that is one less egg to fry, one less wad of gum to step over. I actually called her the other day to say "wassup". I'm telling you - if THAT girl is from Baltimore, I will eat my hat. Georgia is more like it judging from the accent. I know a few of you guys know what I am talking about.... But what do I know. I sound like a Canadian, ay?

The commute is getting to me! Originally posted by La Dolce Vita: I can't help but wonder about your motivation. Nice Catholic boy like you. When I was younger, and I would watch tennis on TV with my brother, and whenever the score was deuce, my brother would just say "Douche". I carried on the proud tradition.  :p

I'm a little late in nosying around other people's rosters but I just realized that all top 5 players have Sammy Sosa who is now 0-2 in this current game. Off topic: What do you all think about Ted William's son?  What do you all think about cryogenics?

Minnesota will get a 3-hit shutout and whine alerts will be all over this place. I can just see it now. More Random Thoughts... - Is there anyone more excited than me about Temptation Island 3? Hot girls... and all they are allowed to wear are bikinis... whoo! - Pork doesn't talk as much trash in the afternoon... Is he working? Is he busy? Is he drinking more wine than he's used to? - Twice this week, I've used Godfather quotes. My brother and I were betting on something, and I didn't like the terms of the bet so I told him, "You can have my answer now if you like. My offer is this -- nothing. Not even the fee for the gaming license, which I would appreciate if you would put up personally." The second time was when a law firm sent an abrasive letter to a client of mine, and I told them that it was time "to go to the mattresses." - By the way, Buffy, I don't think much of Ted Williams's son. He actually tried out on one of the Chicago area minor league teams, but was cut for not having enough talent or experience.

Random Thought/Things that make you go hmmmmm: I KNOW what  looks like - yet I picture him in real life as Paulie Walnuts. Scowl and all! I KNOW what SC looks like, yet I picture him more like Bogey. I picture Pork like this ---->  Not sure why. But wearing a red and white striped shirt, for sure. I KNOW what Bad Daddy looks like. I was lucky enough to see when he posted his pic for all of 2 1/2 seconds. Guys, he is hot!  was a fool for dumping him! But I can only picture him with a bullet in his head now. Although I kinda liked the "legs" picture he used for about a week. But cannot picture him as Austin Powers at all... DoucheBigalow: From what I know of you - you look NOTHING like your Pacino pic. That is ok, I am painting my own picture of a young professinal martial arts banker. Watch  , I hear he is looking to replace Bad Daddy. I KNOW what Bethie looks like. Oddly enough, nothing like Jon Bon Jovi! The rest of the gang, I have no idea. My first instinct is that fathersson needs a shower judging from his avatar, and judging Jo Jo's rants, I picture him like the lovesick Pepe Le Pew with like all these cartoon hearts circling around his head....

Okay I'll join. My top ten thoughts today: 10. The new Lemonade Altoids are really good 9. It's only Wednesday!?!?! What the HELL!?!?! 8. At least my REAL team is in first place, and they're playing tonight at 7:00 on ESPN!! 7. Good thing football is here 6. I hate driving to a site at 8 in the morning and listen to dumbass contractor blow smoke in my face and then cough for a half hour then finally tell me "Listen, we got to make the right choices over here." 5. It's almost time to go 4. When do girl scouts start selling cookies again? 3. Wait a sec...I'm going out to dinner tonight with the *gasp* future in-laws!! Damn, no Royals 2. Maybe the plane will crash (no, that was mean. I do like them) 1. I'm glad everyone seemed to buy my lame "Sarah picks the players" excuse 
It's all over now, baby blue
Where have you gone Joe 05, our board turns it's lonely eyes to you... What's that you say Mrs. Stallionete, JoltinJoe has left and gone away...
