Wow, how often do all the top scorers come 1,2,3,4 justlikethat? Yukon and I might as well come as a pair at this point. Yes, every first week, I know.
posted by yerfatma at 06:15 PM on August 12, 2007
yea! Last!
posted by jasonspaceman at 07:35 PM on August 12, 2007
I left another easy dozen points on the board, too. Damn it all.

Son of Beach! Sheet!

You know how when it's the Monthly Medal (stroke play), and you stride up to the first tee and put the first shot out of bounds? You may as well turn round and go back to the clubhouse.

jasonspaceman: nope. our fearless leader, rcade, is last.

It could have been a lot worse but it was rather irritating leaving Fprssell (goal) and Nosworthy (clean sheet) on the bench. I got the captaincy choice wrong at the last minute too.

terrapin: he doesn't count

I swapped Bentley out for Matt Taylor at the last minute. Should've left him in.
posted by worldcup2002 at 10:18 AM on August 13, 2007
Should've stayed away from Tevez. He won't play til MU third game. Should've been Martins. And Portsmouth sure ain't going to be surprisingly stingy this year.
posted by garfield at 12:02 PM on August 13, 2007
Tevez to start against Pompey.

sir, your linkage has saved me from myself.
posted by garfield at 12:39 PM on August 13, 2007
And Martins doesn't play this gameweek.
posted by squealy at 01:13 PM on August 13, 2007
First objctive achieved: be not last after week one.
posted by afx237vi at 03:30 PM on August 13, 2007
Me, too, afx. Not last!
posted by worldcup2002 at 04:00 PM on August 13, 2007
sir, your linkage has saved me from myself. Given how far ahead of me you finished last year, I suppose I don't need to point out I am a fucking moron.
posted by yerfatma at 04:19 PM on August 13, 2007
Is it ok if I point it out?
posted by worldcup2002 at 04:21 PM on August 13, 2007
I'm too stupid to notice anyway.
posted by yerfatma at 05:45 PM on August 13, 2007
Why is yerfatma ranked ahead of me? Haven't we discussed waht it's like back here?
posted by YukonGold at 07:46 AM on August 14, 2007
I was going to blame alphabetization, but it's clearly just pure dislike on gpsm's part. If only I'd had chili last night.
posted by yerfatma at 08:42 AM on August 14, 2007
Ah yes, back home in the middle of the pack.

jasonspaceman: nope. our fearless leader, rcade, is last. I missed the entry deadline for week one. I'm like Leeds, which started the season with -15 points.
posted by rcade at 09:52 AM on August 15, 2007
Well, Week Two (or "Week Two") is going to suck for everyone.
posted by chicobangs at 11:17 AM on August 15, 2007
Not for me. I should be rocketing up the charts this week. **rubs rabbit foot while knocking on wood, wearing lucky shirt and juju beads, and growing new ridiculous Rafa Benitez beard until he hits #1 spot**

btw, chico, it's good to have you back. What brought you back to the loony bin?
posted by worldcup2002 at 11:39 AM on August 15, 2007
I went to the RBNY/TFC game with goddam on the weekend, and I figured what the hell. I'm still extremely pissed about what went down, but I've learned my lesson, and I will make an honest effort to not post anything that might offend anyone.
posted by chicobangs at 12:10 PM on August 15, 2007
chico, it is great to see you back.

Ronaldo as captain wasn't quite the move, huh? I knew I hated him for a reason.
posted by yerfatma at 05:44 PM on August 15, 2007
Ha, even with Ronaldo's red, I did pretty well. (Yes, he was my steenking captain, too.) Guess my juju worked out today.
