Still Untitled, even after all these years.

I'm in. Somewhere along the line, this past summer I think, they changed the login procedure which caused me to much around with my profile and somehow make an unreversible change to my manager name. sarcastic clapping given to the user interface. otherwise, i think assembling the lower priced side of my team was like going over a who's who of the mos eisley cantina. weird names in the lower reaches.

I'm in again. The Middle Pocket Geldings. Crikey, you're right - there's some weird stuff down there in the sub 4 million price range.

I'll put it this way - I am glad that transfers are only charged at 2 pts per extra one. Also, it appears that my previously mentioned username business (when I was being tabbed as "g s g s") has been resolved. Can't say that I was every confident that it would be what with the profile editing info tucked away someplace and changes not showing up instantly. The question is, will tselson drop by to gloat?

Ah, mid-table mediocrity. That's all I aim for.

The question is, will tselson drop by to gloat? I think he will. I would have had four more points (I think) if it wasn't for that 91st minute goal that the Gunners gave up! While my lead in points is only eleven, there are ...what, 22,303 people between me and the infamous Texan_lost_in_Texas? Thanks for setting this up. It's my first go with fantasy "soccer." (I mention that not only to rub salt in your wounds but to also have my excuse in order when I fall apart.) I wish I could have seen some of those games today;however, the UEFA site is pretty nice. Good luck.

I somehow lost 6 points on the two Bayern Munich players between Tuesday and Wednesday. I think an assist was taken away from Schweinsteiger and I'm not sure what happened with Podolski. Ah....the fantasy world. Did anyone happen to see Cannavaro for Real Madrid against Lyon? As strong, clever and assured as he was in the World Cup, he was every bit as bad in the first half of this game. I couldn't believe my eyes. And yes, tselson, I am back in Texas. I've been waiting over 4 months for rcade to show me how to change the name but I'm sure he has bigger fish to fry.

Now I see that bill's score changed too. It'd be nice if the table on the website came with some sort of "stamps, stamps, no erasies" icon to know when it is truly finalized. In other words - woo hoo! I gained 3 pts on 2nd place without even doing anything!

I WANT MY THREE POINTS BACK, MUDDAFUGERS!
