David in DC: Roto Rooter

Roto Rooter

I've joined a fantasy baseball league for the first time in a decade.

Spent all day yesterday in a cramped office on the draft. On paper, the Stars of David look good.

And we kicked ass last night. Head to head, I beat my old roommate in 8 out of 11 categories, with ties in the other three.

Today, as of 2:55 pm EDT, we're all tied up.

Anybody else in a "Rotisserie-style" league?

I used to be a fantasy nerd. I have not played in a couple of years. Seems a couple of my exes did not see the joy of fantasy baseball. I came close this year, but the gang I was going to go in with backed out at the last moment--we did not have enough people.

PS--I posted a baseball related post yesterday. I took a tour of Jacob's Field and put up a few photos.; April 2, 2007 at 7:27:00 PM EDT
David in DC said...: Playtah - Thanks. I've gotta say tho, a friend of mine with the last name Couette (pronounced Coe-ett) had the best team name I've ever heard "The Little Red Couettes"

Moonbeam: Thanks. Crackerjacks, peanuts, chicken mmmmmmmmmm. [DiDCdoes his best Homer Simpson voice.]

A1: Picture of Supersized Ted coming soon.

(He sleeps during the day and Monkeyboy sleeps at night. They have an hour overlap. So scheduling a photography session can be complicated. Last nite we had a seder. We'll try to photograph Ted tonite, next to an ordinary object that gives an idea of his size - maybe a Pringles can.) All I know is that I'm afraid we bought a baby Wookie instead of a baby hamster.)

Evil-e: I'll go look at your post as soon as I'm done typing this.; April 3, 2007 at 1:33:00 PM EDT
