Sundays and Fantasy Football

Like last week’s Saints game, I am not overly impressed or concerned about the outcome of the game. I am concerned about Deuce McAllister, however. I’ve seen enough of him. If he doesn’t play another preseason down, I’ll be fine with that. He is the franchise. If he stays healthy this season and continues on the pace he set last year, the Saints will need a truckload of money to keep him. What scares me about Deuce and the preseason, however, is the specter of injury. Another franchise, Michael Vick, went down last night due to a freak injury. Don’t need to see that happen here.

Well, Phone Booth was entertaining. Spoiler-alert (Skip down to the next paragraph if you plan to see this movie): If the ending was supposed to be a surprise (It might have been too much of a cliche for me so I give the film maker credit for that), though, they should have cast a less distinctive and well-known voice. He’s also listed in the cast and his voice is all over the trailer. I think this could have been done better.

16th in the mirliton series below. Not what you would call a showcase plant. They are ugly and you have to be invited to my house to see them. They’re not visible from the road, thankfully.

Will make the CFFL Draft Board today after running a few errands. Time to get geared up.

The medical term for today is “incarcerated umbilical hernia”.

Quote from said blog: “Tomorrow I have to go back to work. In some ways the quiet of the office will be a respite from a rampaging 2-year-old. But still I find I am very apprehensive."

Fred looks a lot like Crispin. Fred is a good sport. I doubt Crispin would sit still for a picture if I tied a bib around his neck. -Rob

Update (5:38PM): Crispin on the job. Thankfully, the lizard he's after is outside.
