You know with all this talk of PL and his GF - DB posted the conversation the other day and believe it or not he PM'd me last night with yet another one. I don't know how he gets this information but he does. I assume I can share the below conversation between PL and his girlfriend -(GF) at their house.

GF: PL?

GF: Anyone Home?

GF: PL (Finally walking into the room where PL is typing)
GF: Didn’t you hear me calling you?

PL: What am I doing?

GF: Typing on the Computer

PL: Exactly Woman and you know the rules - you are not allowed to speak with me when I am on the computer, correct

GF: I was only saying ‘Hi’ - Whatcha doing ?

PL: What does it look like I am doing with all these books and stats charts out, I’m doing my fantasy sports picks. You know I am in 17 different leagues and I am great in all of them.

GF: Oh I thought maybe you doing your Internet Porn stuff again, but I should have known cause then your pants would have been down around your ankles

PL: That is not true, you know when I get onto Porn, I neatly hang up my pants in the closet in order to maintain the crease marks - that is what makes me a metrosexual, good personal hygeine and appearance.

GF: So what team are you working on

PL: I am on fantasy team 4 of 17 and I have a lot of work to do, so leave me be. I am currently reviewing the statistics as to how well a pitcher pitches in a game based upon whether he has had a bowel movement that today.

GF: How do you get that information.

PL: You don’t want to know but it is all part of being ‘The Best”. Have I told you that I am the reigning Fantasy Baseball Champ, 2 year running?

GF: Yes – quite a few times.

PL: You should be proud of that, most of your friends only wish their men could do as well.

GF: I am sure

PL: Hey you know that cute girl Jenny that just started working with you.

GF: Yeah

PL: Have you ever told here how good I am in these Fantasy Games, I am sure she would be interested.

GF: Oh I am sure but it has never come up.

PL: Next time tell her, I’ll make a list up that you can show her to cover them all. Wouldn't won't to miss any - take away from the luster you know.

GF: I can hardly wait, so who are you playing with anyway.

PL: Well there is a bunch – none of them are near my level. Well there is one, DB, I call him my Most Worthy Adversary. He is not as good as me, but he presents about the only challenge – if you can call it that – that I get from anyone.

GF: You actually call him Your Most Worthy Adversary ?

PL: Yes, he loves it. He tells his friends and families all about it. I think he may even have that on his business cards. I abbreviate it to MWA – you know making it look very official.

GF: Is he a nice guy.

PL: Yea he is OK. Doesn’t always pay off bets but a good guy. He will rattle off stats like you wouldn’t believe. Sometimes we go hours back and forth with stats that nobody would think of. He is really cool – I would like to adopt him at some point.

GF: Is he married

PL: No, you can’t play fantasy sports well and be tied down, you know.

GF: Girlfriend?

PL: Not sure. I know he has the hots for someone on the board. A sister of some kid Blake. He is trying to hook up with her, but is having some problems because she is only 13 and is finding it difficult to travel without her parents.

GF: Sounds like a Winner

PL: Oh he is.

GF: What about the others ?

PL: Where there is the Don. He is not very good but likes to play. I am his Idol, you know. He made me the Sports Moderator on his board, because of my skills. Hey you know add that to the list when you talk with Jenny.

GF: Anyone else

PL: Well there is Buffy – but she is just a ‘chick’. Actually she is like one of the guys only with curves. She is not that good either, I try and help her out though when and where I can. She is kind of my protégé. She really looks up to me.

GF: Anyone else

PL: Some guy, calls himself Big Daddy, but he is a Wuss. Talking about some aquarium and stuff – what a loser.

GF: So that’s it

PL: A bunch of kids – even got some Brit involved with ‘football’. Only problem is he thought it was European football. That means soccer if you didn’t know.

GF: I knew that – thank you very much So gonna be much longer

PL: No woman – probably only another 4-5 hours. But see this talking has already pushed me back. This is the reason why you are not allowed to talk with me while I am on the computer – so leave me be. I have to recheck weather forecasts now as well as any updates on the pitchers bowel movements.

GF: Go knock yourself out …..

Uh Oh - Big Daddy is a fly on the wall. Time to start closing the blinds and drawing the curtains!

BDD, you forgot to add the part how PL is going to send me a T-Shirt so I can wear it during the group picture when the GBB gang comes to Chicago...

The t-shirt says "My MWA Loves Me!"

I ain't wearing it though - it's kinda gay... not that there's anything wrong with that.

Personally I think the whole MWA thing is kind of gay but hey that is only me. :p Or course not that there's anything wrong with that.

You know DB football season will soon be upon us and with that goes some 'bets'. As commish it might be a good idea to 'reinforce' how important it is that people do NOT welsh on their bets.

I believe it is key for those that owe - to get on top of these things and pay off. Otherwise you will find yourself behind and that is probably not a place you want to be.

No wonder you always snub my advances!

Ok, people....we must be antsy.

5 pages of posts and the regular season and the Fantasy game has not even started!

Too many comebacks... not enough time...!

Better send him soap on a rope then. Oh and a pair of those Bunny slippers.

Hey, I've never been a welsher. In fact, I'm going to pay off a bet next week...

No, not that one... I'm paying off the hat/shotglass bet!

Must... resist... childish... comeback...

You know DB an Old Wise Man once said

You can pay off 10,000 bets but if you WELSH on only one - you are still a WELSHER!!!!

To the Big Guy that offered me a trade today....

I pressed the "Reject Trade" button before writing an accompanying comment in the box. I didn't want to seem harsh as I was rejecting an offer!

So my comment is:

Are you kidding me?

MICHAEL: Clemenza promised the Rosato brothers three territories in the Bronx after he died. You took over, and you didn't give it to them.

PENTANGELI: I welshed?

MICHAEL: You welshed.

I'm a kid BDD? Just because I'm at my sexual peak doesn't mean for you to get jealous, I know your long past it. :p

I think Turi's gonna fit right in here .

We lost our first game 21-16. I had 2 receptions for 29 yards, had a few tackles, and a couple average returns.

I'm disappointed that I didn't get voted a captain.

I am in DESPERATE need of a running back. I will trade M. Harrison/S. Moss and A. Toomer/R. Gardner/J. Galloway for a pro bowler. I will NOT trade M. Harrison and S. Moss for one back. My starting back is Charlie Garner. -Pat

I'll give you Emmitt Smith for Marvin or Santana :p :p :p

We have our first trade here folks...

Turi is getting Hines Ward and Delhomme while RB gets McNabb.

If you have objections, please post here.

Do you want Priest Holmes?

Can someone explain the fantasy waiver system?

Do you want Priest Holmes? [/b][/quote]For who?

Maybe I should've put this( :p ) on the end of my sentence.

Um..ok. It's not like he's a top 5 RB or anything.

I would appreciate it if no body had any objections. BTW, Pat I accepted your trade. Wow now I have two trades pending, dont i feel special.

I feel more confident with Portis now, as my depth at WR was very good. Now I still have one Pro Bowl WR and 2 other good wideouts. The addition of Portis (or another Pro Bowl RB for that matter) was an absolute must for me.

Pat's Packers get:
Clinton Portis

RB's Giants get:
Marvin Harrison
Amani Toomer

Yo Patrick I just noticed you offered to give me Charlie Garner for Kellen Winslow.

Sorry but I rejected your offer. I've had Charlie Garner on my fantasy teams in past years, and he didn't do a thing for me.

So I'll take a chance on the as yet proven Kellen Winslow.


Sorry for not getting back to you earlier. But I have 4 fantasy teams on yahoo this year, I'm getting them confused.

So what do we do here - vote ? I saw in the information on league a trade has to be 'approved' what is that about ?

If we are to vote, I would vote to oppose this trade. Reasons are;

1. I'm just a bastid :p

2. And more importantly I don't see where this could help Turi. He loses a stud QB and gets a nice receiver but he already has the other WR on the team (Burriss) and Pittsburg is not a passing team so to have 2 starting WRs on that team is not going to help his team. And to give up a stud QB, I don't see where that is a good trade. And Delhomo he is not even a passing QB. If RB would make the trade Hassellback and Ward for McNabb I would think that is a much fairer trade.

My 2 cents

For once, I am finding it difficult to tell if you are being sarcastic...

But if you are truly wondering what the "approval" is all about, I think it is mostly to weed out any unfair (read: not stupid or ill thought out trades). For instance in a big money league you can have two people in cahoots trying to do anything to win.

As far as this -


1. I'm just a bastid :p



I KNOW now you are not being sarcastic!

Well, the first trade went through... Since no one had any severe objections to it, it has to go through. My theory on trades is that if it's not completely absurd (e.g. Priest Holmes for Paul Edinger), then a Commish shouldn't overrule it. If you guys thought that it was an unfair trade (and the last one was slightly unfair, hence RB's pleadings for not anyone to overrule it), then you should speak up. If I get a good number of votes to overrule it (either vote on this board or voting through yahoo), then I will. If 4 managers speak up, that's enough of a vote to overrule. I only got one this time (BDD).

Another trade...

Pat gets Clinton Portis
RB gets Harrison, Toomer

My thoughts... It's probably a fair trade. If I was RB, there's no way I give up a stud running back like Portis, but that's just me. He's getting a stud WR and a potentially good WR in Toomer.
