Looks like I've hit a glass ceiling or something. Breaking into the top 4 next gameweek!

Don't worry about the preponderance of recaps, my friend. You're just making the NHL pool commissioner look real bad by comparison. And despite my being at the top of the recent form table again, I too have a glass ceiling into which I'm bumping. (I cannot catch holden, I can only hope to keep pace.)

All I want is to crack the top 10 and get Yukon under me, where he belongs. If you know what I mean.

Eighty big ones! But just as I'm running into some league form, the FA Cup is upon us. I'm sure my starting XI will all pick up injuries. NB: As most of you have realised, I subscribe to the Nick Hornby premise that the natural state of any football fan is bitter disappointment.

/taps tselson on the shoulder and says "what are you doing in the top 7? get out of here while me, wc2002 and bill sort the 5-6-7 slots out between ourselves."

tselson, you're close, but no cigar. Get used to 6th, and watching my Tits swinging above you, far in the distance. And gspm, speak for yourself. Keep aiming your sights low while I snack on some jellyfish, hamburglar, ardley (?!) and phatcat! I'll eat dem for breakfast!

Can we cut rcade from the league? He's dragging the spofi average down. I mean, so what if he's one of the Pantheon. Dude's made like 1 tranfer in 1.5 seasons. I think he's aiming for last overall...worldwide.

Can we cut rcade from the league? Mr. Cade, could you at least use your wildcard to get a teamful of players who, well, actually play a few minutes and are not dropped or out with long term injury? Please?

We could, but the problem is, he could just apathy his team out of last place one of these weeks. He was 16th on the board last week, fergodsake.
posted by chicobangs at 03:35 PM on January 04, 2008
16th?! I withdraw my request.
posted by garfield at 04:01 PM on January 04, 2008
Apathy. I knew there was something missing from my loserness. rcade is my new role model.

Keep aiming your sights low while I snack on some jellyfish, hamburglar, ardley (?!) and phatcat! I'll eat dem for breakfast! What's wrong with calling my team Ardley Athletic?. Probably NSFW.

WC, I do believe the Mrs. would have a problem with you eating Ardley Athletic for breakfast, lunch, dinner or even fourth meal. Of course so would mine ;)

Wk 22, and 42 pts from Ronaldo alone (if you had him as captain). Amazing. I think I might make it into the top 3 this week...
