Sigh.

It's hard not to cheer for The Saints this season, but last night was a different story.  In most cases, I do cheer for The Saints and want them to make it to the Super Bowl but they played The Patriots so there wasn't any question of who I would be cheering for.  I didn't think it would be an easy game, but I was hoping for something better than what I sat through and watched. The Patriots basically had their asses handed to them and were left totally exposed. No defense on the passing game. Well, if we're being honest, no defense period. Bad decisions. 2 INTS for Brady- he was even pulled out of the game during the last quarter. I can't even use Brady's hotness to cheer me up. On the other hand, Drew Brees had an insane game. Ironically, the only other quarterback to put up numbers like Brees did last night is Tom Brady. Perhaps, the torch has been passed. Losing is not a good feeling, but just have to deal with it at this point...still Infinity% behind Tom Brady. 

There's always next week...Squish the Fish!

Team Edward

There's not much I want to say after that picture...it kinda says everything for me...almost.  I don't want to sound like an insane teeny bopper. I'm going to save myself the embarrassment. 

Sadly, I'll be working tomorrow and won't be able to catch New Moon on its opening night. At least Rob Pattinson & Cast will be on Jimmy Kimmel, so I can watch that to hold me over until I can get to the movies this weekend. 

Hopefully, I'll muster enough strength to drag Albert with me Saturday night. I'm thinking I can persuade Albert with a yummy dinner and impair his judgment with some alcohol. Then, trick him into watching New Moon. YAY!  I know deep down he wants to see it, if anything, to root for Team Jacob right next to me (ick!).

RE: Heeellllooo Mr. Johnson!
Dear Chris Johnson- Where the hell did you come from?! How the hell did I get you on my fantasy team?! I didn't even know your first name was Chris until a couple weeks ago, but you are doing FANTASTIC this season...which helps me a lot in one of my leagues! You have almost 200 more rushing yards than Adrian Peterson this season, that's just incredible :) I now refer to you as, "My Little Beast". Anyways, just wanted to say hi and keep up the good work! Thanks for helping me kick some ass in Fantasy!! - Michelle

P.S. The Titans kinda suck...why don't you come over to the 49ers? They're still building and could always use another GREAT Running Back. If you do come to the SF, can you bring a sexy quarterback with you? 49ers+YOU+Sexy Quarterback = Winning Season fer sure!

And...just because I may not have another reason to email him this season AND it's an excuse to put up a pic of Kim Kardashian....

RE: You have a hot girlfriend!
Dear Reggie Bush- As much as I want to praise your football skills, I think we both know that you're not doing as awesome as everyone expected. BUT, you had a breakout game last weekend so maybe it's a sign of things to come! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have won by 4 points in one of my leagues! So thanks for that. I'm pulling for you and hope that you reach your potential in a season or two. If you ever feel down and out on yourself, don't. On the bright side, you're playing for a team that's currently undefeated and...at least you're not Matt Leinart. - Michelle

P.S. You have a hot girlfriend and I like you more because of her. Being Kim's boyfriend is a major plus on its own. Please let her know that I'm a big fan of hers and that I said hi. BTW, I saw the Kardashian Wedding Special...good luck trying to beat the ring that Lamar gave Khloe!


For those of you who don't follow football, Chris Johnson is #28 in the top picture (the guy chasing after him looks so sad :\) and Reggie Bush, the guy (duh!) in the second picture, is a Running Back who plays for the New Orleans Saints.

Ouch.

The Patriots lost by 1 point to the Colts last night. The last 2 minutes were pretty painful to watch. Should the Pats have punted at fouth-and-two? Conventional wisdom says yes, but I would have taken the gamble too. The way I see it, there is less than 2 minutes on the clock and you're only a couple yards away from a first down. Risky, sure. But, if you have Tom Brady and are confident enough in your O-line, why not go for it? No guts, no glory. Well, according to everyone in the football world this morning, it was a bad gamble/call. Of course everyone's going to say that because they lost. It would be a different story had the plan worked like it was supposed to. It was just a risk that didn't work in our favor. Not much we can do about it now. At least the loss was to Peyton Manning, who is a funny guy and a great quarterback, so I don't mind when teams lose to him...but it's the Pats and Tom freakin' Brady! Brady is SO much hotter! If only wins were based on hottness in your uniform ((sigh)). 

The Pats go against the Jets next weekend...I'm hoping they pull out the win here cuz they have the Saints after that (eeks!) and need the momentum. Plus we lost to the Jets earlier in the season, so it would be nice to pay them back ;)

Julius Who??

I should be focused on other things right now. I should be writing something more important than this blog. It seems like there are hundreds of things more important for me to do than write this post. But, you know the feeling where there's just too much going on and it's hard to even sort out your thoughts? Or something has happened that's too sad for words and you try to find other things to distract you so that you don't have to feel that pain? Well that's sort of where I'm at right now. Don't worry...you'll hear all about it in an upcoming blog. For now though, to keep my sanity in tact, I'm going to keep distracting myself.

The following fan email is to Julius Jones (#22 in the picture). If not for him (and Maurice Jones-Drew failing to be the beast he usually is on the field), I would not have tied with Reggie in Fantasy this week. I know it's not a win, but I'll take a tie for sure because I'm really sucking in that league and there's money involved. Holla Julius Jones!

Re: Saving My Ass in Fantasy


Dear Julius Jones- I'm not really a fan of the Seahawks, nor did I really know who you were prior to setting my rosters on Friday afternoon, but I just wanted to say thanks for being awesome on Sunday! You scored more points for me than LT and helped me tie with the #2 team in one of my leagues!  I'm not sure I'm going to play you after this (since I have Marshawn Lynch), but you really came through when I needed it and I just wanted to say thanks! I hope you have a great rest of the season (but not better than the Patriots or 49ers). - Michelle
