Woohoo. It actually looks like I know what I'm doing!

you should give me some advice then trox! I had an awful week, with a full 3 of my players not even bothering to show up. Pulled groin my ass Edu!! It's this Champions League that's messing me all up. You know, go with some easy points and pick Viera or something, and you show up to work the next morning and he's crying about how tired he is! It's all been a disaster for me since the Champions League. Just let Real Madrid win and Ronaldo do little flips and call it a day. Then get back to real footie :)

elsoltano, he say: you should give me some advice then trox! And while you're at it, trox, clue me in, too. This week was my worst ever performance, position-wise. I'm going to stick with my team (for once) and see what happens this time. With my luck, I'll do even worse.

This week, I am going to mash that longdick dude, I feel it in my water.

This week, I'm going to be ... better than 9th! Yeah!

btw, there's a clump of players from #4-#10 who are separated by only 19 pts. Expect a whole lot of reshuffling this week. This is gonna be a fun one. The caste system breaks down like this: #01-#03 (30 point split) (68 point gap) #04-#10 (18 point split) (21 point gap -- doesn't look that significant) #11-#14 (11 point split) (44 point gap) #15-#16 (51 point split) (Should I boot sauril? We're six weeks in and he hasn't chosen a single team.) It'll be interesting to see if anyone jumps those "gaps." Next week, I'll start posting points here, too.

Bleeding 'ell, the longdick dude is pulling away. Even worse, BigCalm has scored some points since he ditched all his Villa players and ex players. Touching faith he is showing in Enckleman though. With that kind of logic I have little to fear.

BigC is one spot, and a hair shy of 12 pts below from me. That's not taking into consideration today's Blackburn v WBA game. I'll have the latest standings on Wednesday, once yahoo's taken that game into account.

And, it doesn't look like I'm going to do better than 9th this week. Sheesh.

Starfucker didn't take long to reclaim his throne from Fat B. The top three (StarFucker, Fat B and elsoltano) have already put 60 points between themselves and the rest of the pack. Everybody else better start scoring like crazy. 1. StarFucker (back from #2) 2. Fat Buddha (deposed leader, but makes FB v BigCalm 5-1) 3. elsoltano 4. corpse 5. apt820 (up six places from #11) 6. trox (up six from #12, highest scorer w/ 76.9) 7. jasonbondshow (down from #5) 8. Drood (down from #7) 9. red dragons (down from #6, for shame) 10. cory (down from #8) 11. jipe (down from #9) 12. etagloh (down from #10) 13. BigCalm (up one from #14!) 14. eckeric (down from #13) 15. mossy 16. pfuller 17. sauril (invisible man)
