Football

It is that time of year again...the smell of the grass....the grills in the parking lot and the stressing of a meaningless MNF game because of your fantasy team. It is football season. (For most of America, for me it doesn't start until the day after the World Series) But whatever. The blog is up and walking...I am not doing the best of updating my loyal 6 followers. Thanks we will do a party or convention one day.

I have a few things planned for this season. i will be introducing my payroll analysis, something I will be doing for all MAJOR sports. The equation doesn't work for MLS or WNBA. Why? Because nobody cares how much they get paid and then wonders why the league struggles. I am going to predict the records for all of the teams. And some other banter.

For now though teams have only one more preseason game, I have done 4 of 5 fantasy drafts and I am also tied for first in 4 of 5 leagues as of right now. That's pretty good!!! Fantasy Football has exploded. I think it just surpassed the UFC as the fastest growing sport in America. This year Yahoo has felt the pressure from most websites and has dropped the fee for live stats updates. Great move. Adrian Peterson should be everyones consensus #1. He s going to tear it up.

I am excited for football season because it is the first year since the early 90's I am excited to go to Raymond James Stadium to the the superstar....on the other team. rowing up as a Bucs fan I always cheered for the home team but t was fun watching the NFC Central come to town every year. Who can't cheer for Barry Sanders as he breaks off a long TD run with one shoe and 11 creamscicles chasing or giving up behind him? But as always GO BUCS!!!! You will see how I have them finishing here soon.

Thanks for reading and prove me wrong.....
