Fantasy Blogball Running Diary
Well, it's time for the first annual Washington area fantasy league. There's only six teams, so there shouldn't be any excuses. The draft order appears to be such:
1. Asian Mistress (City Sparkle)
2. Sara (The Butterfly Network)
3. D.C. SportsChick (D.C. Sports Chick)
4. Baby Bananas (Marci a.k.a. Baby Banana)
5. The Captain (D.C. Sports)
6. I-66 (D.C. Sports)
8:25: It appears that I-66 and I are the only ones showing up for this draft. Which means there's no way any of the other four should win. And for misogynist purposes, we refuse to be beaten by a bunch of girls!
8:28: Nevermind, Marci of Baby Banana has shown up, the women are represented.
8:30: Round one goes by in less than 30 seconds...fastest draft ever.
Sparkle Superstars - Peyton Manning
Sara's Team - LaDanian Tomlinson
D.C. Sports Chick - Shaun Alexander
Baby Bananas - Priest Holmes
The Captain - Randy Moss
I-66 - Daunte Culpepper (There you go Travis)
8:31: Round two - I'm definitely going to have to type some of this up later, this is going way too fast.
I-66 - Willis McGahee
The Captain - Corey Dillon
Baby Bananas - Edgerrin James
D.C. Sports Chick - Domanick Davis
Sara's Team - Jamal Lewis
Sparkle Superstars - Deuce McAllister

Boo to Asian Mistress, Sara and D.C. Sports Chick for missing the draft, they better have a damn good reason. The fantasy football gods will not be pleased.
8:59: Round fifteen - draft over. A football draft in 29 minutes, incredible. Time for I-66 and I to throw it down for all fantasy football playing guys. Anyone not involved in the league, who's got the best team?

uh oh.. better turn on the word verification.

That WAS the freakin' fastest draft known to man. Heysus. I was pissed about getting slotted fourth cuz I knew I would get stuck with Holmes (not feeling him this season), and I wasn't ballsy enough to take McGahee or Dillon early. And my dumb ass didn't read any sports pages yesterday and missed that Green just underwent surgery -- I maybe should have drafted a QB earlier...
Trent should be ok, they say. I have him on another team and will start him unless I hear otherwise.
Sparkle Superstars only had one bad pick (Chambers, who should be benched immediately). They'll probably run away with it, but Marci could challenge if Trent doesn't suck too bad, and I-66 could also challenge, but the combination of Ahman Green plus very little RB depth is dangerous indeed. Still, I-66 has my main man is QB, so he'll get my sentimental support.
He may be aging, but I do have the NFL's leading rusher in '04 on my bench.
Depth, baby.
Aw, crap, I forgot. Maybe that's because the date and time changed about 15 million times first and I couldn't keep track of them all. I did do pre-draft rankings though.
Tom Brady, eh? Now that he's apparently becoming a badass (ha!), hopefully that won't affect his play too much.
Where's the love Travis? You want running back depth, or depth in general, you come to this man right here. I'll likely be taking this title easily.
I missed the draft because I was out of town and out of internet acces...tragic indeed.
But - I think I got a pretty good team...then again, what do I know? :)
*access that is
