Usually, after a week or two, I get pretty good at predicting football games and such, at least more than the average bear, but this year is just different. I seem to find a surprise or a shock every weekend, often more than once. But never was I more surprised than when I got a…
Is This Real Life?
In the words of Jim Halpert, “What is going on???” And, no, I’m not talking about the SPFL, I’m talking about the NFL. Can anyone honestly figure it out? It couldn’t be scripted, it makes no sense. If it weren’t for the Chiefs being 3-0, thanks to some officiating help, and well on their way…
Don’t Know Nuthin’ ‘Bout Nuthin’
I watch a lot of NFL football. Mrs. Commish is the definition of an NFL widow. Me at 1:00PM today pic.twitter.com/EdLrrXjHnR — NFL Memes (@NFL_Memes) September 8, 2024 But last weekend in the NFL proved that I don’t know much about NFL football. The script writers surprised even a diehard fan. No, I’m not talking…
The Sky is Falling … or … Hand Me the Trophy
WE MADE IT 🙌 pic.twitter.com/mIGSAOg8dW — Sports Illustrated (@SInow) September 10, 2023 Well, as a Cowboys fan, the cheese is laying there. All melty and gooey and scrumptious looking. Reminds me of a plate of lasagna at Roma’s. The Big Tuna is in my head saying, “Don’t. Don’t you do it. Don’t you eat it…”…
Predictions
Thanks to everyone for another fun SPFL draft! I’m a little nervous, though, I’m not a big fan of the Yahoo experts giving me an A grade and giving the Lightning a low grade. It just seems … off. While I feel pretty good about my team overall, I’m a little nervous that I fell…
SPFL Draft 2024
Just a quick reminder that our draft is mere days away! (Sunday at 2:00pm. Please make sure beforehand that you have Internet and a laptop or whatever you need. This crowd will have no sympathy on you!) I have not heard that any teams are not interested in participating this year, so I must…
Is This What I Think It Is?
While this is probably the most boring blog post I have every year, it is the one that is most exciting, at least to me. The dawn of the 2024 SPFL is approaching! As it is apt to do, life has kept on flowing by since we last visited. I’ve loved. I’ve lost. I’ve lamented….
A New Champion is Crowned
History was made last weekend in the vaunted SPFL, as Ryan’s Yesterday’s Corn franchise moved into solo second place on the all time titles list, picking up their third Farley Trophy. It was a weird, challenging year in the SPFL (and my life as a whole, but I won’t chase that rabbit today). The Corn…
Championship Week
I can hardly believe it. It’s SPFL Super Bowl Week. But before I get to that, a quick personal update. First of all, thanks for the understanding in allowing me to skip a couple of blog posts, even during the most important time of the fantasy season. As some/most of you probably know by now,…
Down to the Wire
With one week remaining in the SPFL regular season, four playoff spots are filled and two are still in play. The Piranha Brothers welcomed a relief valve for the building pressure of the perfect regular season. And college football showed that there is definitely one thing the NFL does better than they do … advancing…
