Mood: Still perplexed after waking up to find a deer in our pool. We’ve had
ducks, we’ve had geese, but never a deer. Definitely wasn’t ready for that one}
Tonight,
My status as
the #1 ranked fantasy wrestling player… wait for it… still waiting… IN THE
WORLD… will be put to the test by The Joan.
On Monday
night, we decided that it would be fun to go against each other in one of RFW’s
weekly $1 challenges. We both set our lineups in the middle of the work day on
Monday. And amazingly, without any prior knowledge of who the other person was
picking, we managed to select nine of the same 10 people.
Even more
amazingly, we managed to finish Raw with identical scores of 230.85 with my
final 11 points coming from Paul Heyman and her final 11 points coming from
JBL. Obviously, I either need Heyman to be a big part of Smackdown or just
start praying that JBL didn’t show up to do commentary.
Heyman has
recorded seven points on each of the two previous editions of Smackdown while
JBL has recorded point totals of nine and 13. The odds aren’t in my favor but
crazier things have happened, so we’ll see if Goatface Killa can overcome the
odds and take out Weed the People.
As far as my
other two weekly matchups are concerned, I’m currently leading my 20-person
weekly freeroll with a score of 225.55 and nursing a lead of only 6.7 points.
And in the Ken Reedy Show 10-person freeroll, I’m currently in third with a
score of 230.85 and find myself 8.65 points out of first place entering tonight’s
festivities. The Joan is sitting in second place at 233.25 points.
Losing to The
Joan in our head to head battle I could live with. But if she outscores me in
both that matchup AND the Reedy Show Freeroll, it may be a long time before I
hear the end of how she triumphed over the #1 ranked fantasy wrestling player
IN THE WORLD. Keep it tuned to PSS to see how it all winds up going down.
Sometimes, I
find nuggets on the Twitter Machine that are worth sharing. Here are two interesting
ones regarding some highly touted 2013 fantasy football running backs:
@ChrisWesseling:
"Remember when Megatron/Andre Johnson had early-career skeptics b/c of
nagging injuries and poor surrounding talent? That's Trent Richardson."
@Chet_G:
"CJ Spiller's last 396 touches went for 2,533 yards and 14 TDs compared to
Peterson's last 388 that went for 2,314 yards and 13 TDs."
Sometimes, the
analysis is just as simple as that.
Read an
interesting piece this morning in which LeBron James and Dwayne Wade talk of
how fatigue was a factor in their Game 1 loss to the Spurs last night. All I
have to say about this is that I 1000% believe that they were fatigued. Not
because they just finished a grueling seven game series against the Pacers, but
because there was little to no flopping.
They REALLY
must have been tired. But Bron Bron wasn’t too fatigued to give the ref his
best Macauley Culkin impersonation after Miami got called for a late foul. Did
anyone notice that it was the EXACT same reaction Bron Bron had in the series
against the Bulls before The Nazr Mohammed knocked him on his posterior? Just
thought you should know that.
Hockey-wise,
I’m really hoping that the Blackhawks dispose of those pesky Kings in Game 5
and don’t let the series go back to LA. If they do, as much as I hate to think
it, the Kings are taking the series. Specifically to spite me.
On a lighter,
blog-ending note, I posted a version of this blog title as my Facebook status
this morning. 14 likes in six hours! That may be a new personal record for a
status I just p00ped out. Yet, I can’t BUY a like for all the witty statuses I
post and am so proud of for three hours until I realize that no one is going to
like it, which then sends a wave of sadness through my bloodstream.
I don’t get
it.
Till next
time from The Pond… speaking of which, I think that’s where the deer ran off to
so I’m going see for myself. If you don’t hear from me by Tuesday, call the
police.
