   I just joined my first fantasy football keeper league, 12 teams. Taking over someone else's squad and get to keep 3 current players. Each player has a draft round value that I will sacrifice to keep said player, but can only keep 1 player with the same round value (i.e. can't keep two players with Round 1 value, only one). QB Michael Vick Round 3 Ryan Fitzpatrick Round 11 RB LeSean McCoy Round 1 Steven Jackson Round 1 Steven Ridley Round 5 Justin Forsett Round 10 Jacquizz Rodgers Round 13 Roy Helu Round 6 WR Jordy Nelson …

   Beach water polo Cup 2013

   The seventh-annual Cup tournament was held in Alamitos Bay last Saturday. It's an all-day event, running Sat-Sun with all kinds of age-groups. Every year, we've played a "marquee match-up" vs. a team from the Fire Department. Usually, the Fire team is short on players, causing them to draw from the seasonal Lifeguards whose shift is just ending.. Leading to a game of old Cops (several of us who are actually alumni-Lifeguards), vs. the young and in-great-polo-shape Guards. We usually play a best-of-five-games; first to five goals, wins. We have yet to beat "Fire", but have come close every year. This year, we had five Officers show-up to play (including one makin…

    I remember we did a 10 team league last year. No money. Just fun. Anyone interested.....Chuck, Brandon, Nate, Adam, .....anyone else? I can't remember who all played last year, I just remembered that Adam scored the most total points but he always lost which was amusing.

    I want to thank you for something you did last year. You posted a link to a sale by callaway clubs for a sand wedge, which was a club I needed after my clubs were jacked (by Adam). I bought it and really liked it. Because of buying it I've gotten emails about callaways used clubs and what not. Today my new putter arrived. It's the Odyssey white hot 35" model, and it's an upgraded version of what I lost. And because its slightly used, it cost less than the one it replaced. I wouldn't have known about any of this without your post. Thanks. p.s. with this in my bag I might've shot a 51 or 52 two weeks ago, which I'm sure you already know.

    This guy is such an epic douche. I forgot that he was supposed to be suspended for the season because he was involved in a bar fight before the season even started but Sumlin convinced the university not to suspend him. Recently he went on twitter whining about how shitty it is to be famous like him... turned out it was because he got a couple parking tickets. Now he was kicked out of the Manning QB camp because he stayed out late and got so wasted he was too hung over to participate the next day. Sounds like Ryan Leaf 2.0
