Smack Talk HQ

[Nomad]

Preseason's almost done. Frankly I can't wait any longer to talk smack with you lot. Can this be the official place?

I think it will be good this year finally, really good, to be a Bengals fan.

Just sayin'.

[Lepus]

The Bears are just psyching everyone out with all their preseason losses.

[Nomad]

You, uhm, you want some cookies with that kool-aide?

[Lepus]

Thbbtthhh...

My brother and sister-in-law are at the Bengals/Packers game tonight.

Unfortunately, my brother is a Packers fan. I'm pretty sure I could hear him cussing...

<font size="1">no, i'm not serious</font>

Sheesh. You live in Chicago now, babe. I know Virginia McCaskey. Don't make me send that little old lady over to your place to beat the crap out of you...I have no doubt that she could.

And when she is done with you I will take my turn.

I think this would be an excellent time to start shopping for a new brother and sister-in-law.
And a new Nomad as well. Blasphemy. Bengals. pahh. I am friends with a Siberian Tiger at the zoo and he says Bengal tigers are pussies.

[Lepus]

Despite their love for the Packers, I do like my brother and sister-in-law. My SIL is a riot. I'm willing to overlook their questionable taste in football teams because they are so awesome otherwise.

I have no idea where they learned to love the Packers. There are no other Packer fans in this family!

I'll overlook Nomad's poor taste in teams as well, although the Bengals do have the coolest uniforms in the NFL.

Jeeze, you are quite the magnanimous one tonight, aren't you? I was trying to think of some hideous sin you could forgive me of as well. But then I remembered... I don't have any.

[Lepus]

Part of the fun of football is critiquing the uniforms!

[SplashingWater]

oh puh lezzze images/smiley_icons/icon_rolleyes.gif

[Lepus]

Heeeey....

You analyze the plays and I'll analyze the uniforms and how good the players' butts look in them.

This is why I get my butt kicked in Fantasy Football...

[Nomad]

So I just went to do my picks and I gotta tell ya, I'm a little torn.

The Pack play the Bears in the opener. I think the Bears will win ONLY if Griese starts. They play Rex and they lose.

Who the *** do I pick?



Truth be told, I'd love to see Bret take the Pack all the way.

[Lepus]

Did you start drinking at noon today or something?

The Pack do not have a chance. They are awful this year.

I am not even speaking as a rabid Bears fan. The Pack just suck and Brett will be lucky to get out of this season alive.

More like the Green Bay EMT's taking Bret all the way to the hospital. I, of course, hate Green Bay but I do have a lot of respect for Favre. He is a great quarterback and a decent guy. It would be nice for him to do well, but frankly, he is slow and his offensive line sucks. All that put together makes for an injured Bret by midseason. It is too bad...he should have gone out with the old coach and a not-so-bad season. Unless they replace their entire offense, Bret Favre will not go all the way to anywhere but the trainer's room.

[Nomad]

I say if the Bears win this week you should change the "DA" on the front to "DA Bears!"

Just sayin'.

[Lepus]

LOL!

That would be pretty funny...

And what do you mean IF the Bears win?

[Caffeinated]

Oh for pete's sake Nomad - what are you doin' ?!?!?!?!?!?!?

Don't get the woman putting Bears shit on the banner again !!!

Wasn't the pain of that enough last season?

Of course, the logo is the colors of mah 'Fins. images/smiley_icons/icon_biggrin.gif

Speaking of the fins, is there a reason they are more boring than usual tonight?

Have you ever seen the commercial about "Bob"? Enzyte is the product and it is a "male enhancement product". The commercials are HYSTERICAL...They are on cable a lot (a bit risque for network)...
Now those I don't mind watching. Not some old saggy sack who can't get it up figuring out how he can watch football and have sex at the same time. Oh wait. that was baseball. never mind.

[Lepus]

No, I've never seen them.

I have heard the radio commercials though. They come on late at night on WLS. They're not risque...just boring.

[Caffeinated]

Oh yea, SW, I've seen the "Bob" commercials. They did make me smile the first time I saw them.

What did NOT make me smile was last night's game! Looks like I'll have another year of a broken heart
thanks to my Dolphins. :sob:sob:sob:

I know I'm s'posed-tuh smack talk y'all round here but...

What the fuck is up with John Hall's helmet?! I have always hated his helmet.

Thanks. I feel better.

Oh. And I miss Paul!!!

[Lepus]

Paul?

[Nomad]

Paul Maguire!!!

[Lepus]

Oh...I never paid much attention to him or Sunday night ESPN football...

:gasp:

[Caffeinated]

Caff's list of football MUSTS:

They MUST bring Al and John back to Monday night football.

The Dolphins MUST learn how to play football.

You all MUST drop any player who gave you double digits in FF.

It MUST snow in an outdoor stadium for at leat two playoff games.

The NFL MUST be put on hold for the two weeks I'm on vacation in October and can't get to FF or Picks.

TO MUST wear a shirt while he's on the sidelines the next couple of weeks that says "Yes Cappy, I am a fucktard"

Any why do I get to make the list of MUSTs? Because I AM WINNING in Fantasy Football. AHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHA
You guys like the view from back there?

Yes, I know I will be eating those words very soon, but in my brief ride at the top, I MUST throw some smack.

[Lepus]

JUST BRING BACK MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL ON ABC AND QUIT IT WITH ALL THESE GAMES ON SUNDAY NIGHT!

By Sunday night I'm *gasp* kind of sick of football! And there are other shows I want to watch!

ABC letting MNF go was SO STUPID!

And yes, I'm yelling...this is a matter of great importance!

Why are you insisting we all dump a player when you blew everyone out of the water this week, Caff?

YOU should have to dump players! Clearly your team is too good!

[Caffeinated]

If I want to remain in the lead each of you must drop a top player. Isn't that logical?

Thanks - 'preciate ya.

[kcirref]

I don't have a top player to drop.

[Caffeinated]

OK then, you can just give me Shaun Alexander.

[Lepus]

I'll give you Eric Moulds...or that loser Cadillac Williams...

See how sweet I am?

[kcirref]

I already told you I'd give you Shaun for LT.

[Caffeinated]

And I'll give you two six twenties, for five fifties. Deal?


Six for five, I'm being kind here.

[Nomad]

If my RB and WR sitch don't get better, I might have a QB on the block.

Just sayin'.

[Lepus]

I'll take Peyton.

Big Ben looks like he has great potential to be a huge disappointment this season.

[Nomad]

Yes, well, Peyton wasn't the QB I meant. Nice try, though.

images/smiley_icons/icon_biggrin.gif

[Lepus]

Selfish bitch.

[Caffeinated]

I am SOOOOOOO screwed this week for Fantasy Football. I have nobody good available to play.

I'm going to be lucky if I hit 20 points this week.

:sob:sob:sob:

[Nomad]

YAYYY!

images/smiley_icons/icon_biggrin.gif

[bluecho872]

wah-wah.....you all make me sick!!

I am the bottom of the pile and I don't like the view. Nothing personal. It's just that I haven't even broken into the triple digits yet. What's wrong with my team?? After the draft, I was pretty happy.

Lame ass bastards...

<font size="1">OR...it could be the fact I don't know what the hell I am doing...</font>

[Lepus]

Are you using those links I sent you?

[Lepus]

You've got great kickers but not much else. McGahee is supposed to have a good week. I'd play him. Williams is supposed to have a good game against the Packers. You picked up Colston (I wanted to nab him!) which was a good decision. I'd think about dumping some of your players and picking up people who were "sleepers" like umm...you do the research. You'll end up passing me by!

That said I have a habit of dumping too soon some times...

Look at those sites I sent you and play anyone listed as a good bet and I think you'll do fine this week.

You did get some people who were supposed to be studs but haven't been yet. They still have time though. This is only week 3. Someone will catch fire.

[Lepus]

You can always hit people up for trades too...

Also...I don't think Clipse is playing. I'm going to have to contact her.

We might have a team to rip apart...not sure how we'll do that fairly.

they just aren't performing yet. It isn't that you don't know what you are doing, it's the crappy players right now.

[SplashingWater]

it is time for me to admit that I know nothing about Fantasy Football. And when I read these posts it is as if you all have started speaking an ancient Celtic dialect. No reason for anyone to be alarmed, I just wanted to post here and see if it came out in a that same language.

[Lepus]

You're playing and you know nothing about it?

Let me go propose some trades...

[SplashingWater]

Perhaps someone has stolen my DA identity...I didn't know I was playing...?

[Lepus]

I know! I don't like the guy but what is he going through? How bizarre!

I find it pretty hard to believe his medication mixed badly with his supplements unless his "supplements" are 'roids or other harsh substances.

But why was he released if it was a suicide attempt? Don't they usually put them under observation for a couple of days? I suppose he has enough handlers that the doctors felt it safe to release him...or didn't even care if it wasn't safe to release him because of his celebrity.

[Caffeinated]

I am not even close to a fan of TO - don't like him a bit. Having said that, I feel sorry for the guy right now.

Whether he tried to kill himself, or just took some wrong mixture of medication, for pete's sake that is his own PRIVATE business.
It bothers me that we (as a society) think it is our right to know things because people are celebrities. What they order in a
public restaurant is one thing, but their medical information should be totally off limits. I personally don't want to know what was
on the 911 call, it's not my business, and I think TO is really being violated here.

/soap box

[SplashingWater]

Because I hate an unanswered question...

"If a patient who has a psychiatric disorder lacks emotional control, has psychosis, or shows impulsivity with serious threats, thoughts, or plans for suicide or homicide, he should be treated in a protective setting and, if required, hospitalized involuntarily. When suicide threats or gestures are judged to be nonlethal, patients may be released after assessment by a psychiatrist."
In his case the suicide observation would only be 24 hours. Some stupid shit about patient's civil rights or something...WHAT EV ER

Due to my lack of a copy/paste ability, if you want the source on this let me know...

[el capitan]

Tomorrows gonna be fucking insane!!!! T.O. back in Philly for the first time...with the Cowboys no less!!!! I wonder what will happen, Ive heard the rumours of the fans chanting O.D. instead of T.O.....but I think it'll be ALOT worse...these are the fans that threw ice balls and hurt Santa during an X-mas parade and they throw ice balls at opposing teams cheerleaders in the winter, plus they have a courtroom built in to the stadium for game time hooligans.......hehe. i miss philly.

[Lepus]

I heard one of the media outlets in attendence is Al Jazeera.

No, I'm not kidding.

I find it sad that some of the players are afraid to take the field for fear of how the fans are going to behave. It can be taken too far.
