I just want to send my kudos to Matt for not only starting Marc Bulger against Daryl this week, but actually going to the free agent wire and making the decision that Bulger was his best option.
I only want to suggest that if you really want to use a Rams QB, you might consider Jim Everett, or perhaps Norm Van Brocklin. At least they will limit your losses to zero points.

"h. Check out this football card ofJosh McDaniels. It's from 1995, from the Big 33 high school all-star game between Pennsylvania and Ohio. It's the only card of McDaniels, obviously, seeing that he went on to play Division III football and never played in the NFL. When he got the Denver coaching job last January, the card could be had for 75 cents. On Friday, it was selling for $40 on some of the secondary markets.

Just the tonic I needed.
Just like year, again I got off to a rough start this season. And again, my first win comes against Daryl. Thanks for being my bitch.
Of course, knowing my luck, Ted Ginn will lose 5 fumbles and Ronnie Brown will run it in 6 or 7 times, the last TD coming on the last play of the game. Only I could blow a 76 point lead...

Rush Wants to Buy the Rams?!
Well, yeah, with a group of other investors.
Ooh, but, yeah, the NFL Player's Association indirectly nicely told him to fuck off in a communique' to the league.
Why a largely African-American player base wouldn't want to play for a known bigot racist asshole is beyond me!

Time Again for the Kickers We Are Trading
Ach. After some slowness in the starting, the Anschluss gears up for push.
To our attention it has come that this, this kicker, this Nicholas Volk
...he is having unseemly Communist tendencies. Perhaps we should have known from his name, ja?
There fore. Yes, we demand Lyrad must trade with us the kickers. Muss es sein.
Der Anschuss kommt endlich. Seien Sie bereit.

Tony Romo Is My Favorite QB
In the Star-Telegram, via the SI Website
Cowboys quarterback Tony Romo is getting a lot of criticism for throwing consecutive passes to fourth receiver Sam Hurd against Denver standout cornerback Champ Bailey on third and fourth down to end the game in Sunday's 17-10 loss. Is is possible that Romo didn't know it was fourth down? Following the final incomplete pass to end the Cowboys hopes, a video caught on KDFW Fox-4 shows Romo seemingly telling his linemen to line back up. He then flashes three fingers to one of the game officials. After hearing the response, Romo screams and walks off field. If true, Romo apparently forgot about the spike to stop the clock on second down.

Once again....
How many times can you lose in the final minutes of the last game? I was holding on to my lead until PRivers got hit by Harrison and fumbled. Last meaningful play of the game, and just enough points to edge me out. Seriously, if I had a 100 point lead in the final game, 4th quarter, 2 minute warning, the opposing QB would throw a 99 yard TD, get the onside kick, throw another 50 yard TD, etc., until that lead dissolved.
Epic fail, part II. Great game OC Log Cabins-- I'm the Kerry Collins of the HFC now.

JaMarcus Russell
Man, Oakland sort of kind of looks like they have a Defense. Too bad JaMarcus Russell...
...couldn't find a hex wrench at an IKEA.
...couldn't find a pot dealer at Burning Man.
...couldn't find a drunk dude in the Wrigley Field bleachers.
...or add your own version! Think you've got what it takes?
...
That's funny, because so does JaMarcus Russell (who is 11-30 for 110 yards, 2 sacks for -8, and a lost fumble as of this writing [updated 2:52 PM]).

Daryl's Self-Portrait, Week 4
Last week we saw Daryl's fantasy about getting back at me for beating him every time we face. This week, he shows what actually happens to him when we meet.
As always, Daryl's on the bottom.

Tweets Of The Week September 28
David Clowney got into some trouble on Twitter. Rex Ryan has benched him for next weeks game after he posted this tweet after Sunday's win:
"1 play in the 1st Half, 4 plays in the 2nd half . . . A bit disappointed about my playing time but very happy and satisfied about the win."
Ryan's point seems to be that no one player is bigger than the team (someone should tell this to Brett Favre). Clowney has since deleted every other tweet on his feed and left this:
Hmmm...notice the time stamp. Curious.

Eli Manning Throws 2 TDs, Is Excited by Balloons
(New York)--Giants quarterback Eli Manning threw two touchdowns Sunday in a victory over the Buccaneers in Tampa, taking the Giants to 3-0 on the season. Reached for comment, Manning remarked, "I saw a kitty from the bus!"
"I like kittys, and balloons too!" said Manning later. "I wanted to see the kitty some more but Mommy said I should just get in my PJs and get ready for sleepytime."
Eli's wife, Abby, was sympathetic yet stern. "Please don't call me 'Mommy,' Eli, we have company," she said tenderly.
Above: Eli (L) and Abby Manning arrive at a New York Mensa Society Couples' Meeting last summer
"Eli's a kind man, but he gets easily excited by things like candy and sparkling objects," Abby said. "Eli--or Mealticket, as I sometimes call him--needs focus and direction, like so many gifted athletes."
"I only wish he was physically gifted in other areas," she added sadly. "Does anyone here want to finger-fuck me? Eli's got his Juice Box and should be distracted for a few minutes trying to open it."
Manning spends most of his spare time with his friend Steelers quarterback "Cuddly" Ben Rothlisberger. The pair spend countless hours studying still photos of plays from the previous weeks' games and finding their favorite Teletubbies in the formations.

Was ist this Log Cabins?
I am not understanding this...this log cabins. I am thinking that it is perhaps film where people are paid to make the shit upon you, yes? In Germany we have such things as this. Again I am suggesting we ask your Lyrad, he seems to like his movies, and also having shit upon himself.
Perhaps, though, it is as some kind of Treat for Die Kinderen, like the so-called Gingers Bread House?
Regardless, they shall be disposed with in such a manner as shit for toilets, I am thinking this.

Daryl's Self-Portrait, Week 3
Daryl paints himself red this week. It's his fantasy of defeating me (in blue) in fantasy football. Sadly, he is 0-5 against me in 3 seasons. Because he just can't beat his big brother. He can fantasize about bayoneting me in the neck though.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory...
Good game, Capetown (with the pull ahead catch on the penultimate play of the Monday night game). 158.86 - 156.10 final.
