Murray all day. SF's D is a paper tiger.

Damning praise department from Yahoo draft report card: Picking starting RBs should be an effortless exercise most weeks for 12th Man Murdochs, as there's a healthy projected point difference between their third-ranked (Frank Gore) and fourth-ranked (Jeremy Hill) RBs.

I registered as Space Monkey Gleek. Who won last year?

Are we going to do a DVDVR Survival Pool this year? I want a crack at making it past Week 3.

I do! Needless glitz is a necessary companion to cynical patriotism that makes up the hilarity of the modern NFL. I love the entire shit show.

She has a VHS tape in her closet of an old lady wrestling Penny Banner.

Ok, if we are doing Boogie... Cap'n Mike Rotunda, Tugboat Taylor, and Jimmy Valiant as Team NAUTICA.

Based on the photo, I had to check out CHEAP POPS! Here's the link: http://www.wwe.com/videos/wwe-cheap-pops-episode-1-26602222

Well, considering the NFLPA basically agreed to let the owners collude... Seriously. I think the NFLPA has to be a terrible union. The entity I'm most puzzled with in this whole Gordon ordeal is the union for allowing such a terrible testing system. Gordon just got suspended for second hand pot smoke, which is allowed under the CBA. Also, I'm not exactly sure why someone in the NFL/testing agency chain of command didn't just see the results and ask for an immediate re-test. This makes everyone involved look really bad.

The Kamala one was great, but ended pretty sad. You could tell Austin was concerned for him.

Make sure when you are reading articles and looking at rankings, they are for PPR. It changes things. RBs who catch balls are more valued, WRs who are "possession" guys become important, and so on. If it's your first year, and you're playing with more experienced guys, don't be afraid to ask questions. Watch what they do and evaluate. The championship is won through the waiver wires and trades, so a mediocre draft won't kill you out of the gate as long as some of the building blocks are there.

Who did you draft first last year? Doug Martin?

It would be easier to pretend to be gay than to explain to a non fan that the Fabs weren't gay, and that you're not gay despite looking at pictures of two guys that look very gay. I haven't been this confused since summer camp.

I would have asked Sarge for a friendly handshake. When I was in college at U of Minn I was at a charity basketball game and met Greg Gagne, right as he was retiring. We chatted for a bit, and I asked for a picture. My "friends" told Greg to put me in the sleeper, and when he did, they yelled for him to cinch it in. Somewhere there's a pic of me turning purple with Greg Gagne. I gotta find it. For now:

Talking about dicks is more JR's thing. Austin is too classy.

Didn't he sell the Double Cross Ranch a few years back? In Texas, lots of folks own "ranches" which are really second homes. Keep a couple of head on it, pull in the ag exemption, and have a place to go hunting with your buddies/business associates. When it was for sale, it was listed at 275 acres, so it may not have been big enough to make the kind of money necessary for Terry to hire someone to run it when he was away. Just guessing though.

Who would you get to play the wrestling mummy?

I assumed it was someone who was a fan of his dad-- a mixup of Bob Dylan and the Dylan/Kristofferson pic Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid.

I like how Harley came to the ring to what sounds like Herb Alpert. Like he's so bad ass that he can get psyched up to what amounts to a soundtrack to a fondue party.

In his defense, the kid's check bounced.

I have no problem with Grumpy Ol' JR, and I really appreciate him telling us what is wrong with wrestling today, and how he would fix it. I don't see a need to repeat the same thing week after week though. I understand that ROH needs to slow it down and buy more lights, please tell me what else is wrong. If you run out of things that are wrong with wrestling, start talking about how shitty the post office is, I don't care. Am I the only one who likes Jericho's cowbell routine?

Amazing call. According to the site I grabbed the image from, Steve Ditko drew half the stories in those books.

Seeing the Bushwackers in such a formal environment kind of blows their gimmick.

Dasher is allergic to latex and his brother just got a Hero Head. I'm going to have to get two of those and let my 3 year old twins bash it out until I get a visit from CPS.

Don't forget Backlund has a book coming out in the Fall. Dust off your dictionaries-- Bob is ready to show off!
