Re: 3DD English Premier league Fantasy Football League
After an abysmal season opener, Boognish United made some key transfers and is looking forward to rebounding this weekend. Lucky start for the Grasshoppers. Don't get too comfortable in first place. The brown shall rise!
I keep it all together for the sake of the kids.

Re: 3DD English Premier league Fantasy Football League
I think if Rooney nets one today for Everton I will be in first place!*
*Closer examination of Milton's squad reveals that it's he who will likely be in 1st and the end of todays match.

Re: 3DD English Premier league Fantasy Football League
Compare and contrast to my week, which was easily my worst in 1+ seasons and which may have doomed my entire season. Truly awful. Big decisions ahead though I'm not sure that there are many good alternatives.sactochris wrote:I won the week in all three of the leagues I'm in!

One week doesn't make or break anyone in a 38 week season.

Re: 3DD English Premier league Fantasy Football League
We all know that I'm no expert when it comes to professional futbol, but I think I'm on safe ground in stating that Arsenal's performance today against Liverpool was an embarrassment to the sport. It's one of those days when the conventional wisdom about why coaches/managers get fired (because you can't fire the players) might well be questioned. If I were the owner of that team I might choose not to sign any more paychecks just to see what happens.

Re: 3DD English Premier league Fantasy Football League
The highest rated MLS club is Toronto at #176. Next is NYCFC at 284. For those of you scoring at home, the difference between the top 2 MLS clubs is 108 places. Roughly speaking, when the 2 top clubs in MLS play, it's like Barcelona, the #1 ranked club and obviously first in its league, playing Rennes, the 13th best club in its league.

Manchester City confirm Sergio Aguero involved in car crash
From ESPN -- Manchester City have confirmed that Sergio Aguero will return to England to be assessed by club doctors after being involved in a road accident in Amsterdam. Sources told ESPN that Aguero, 29, suffered a fractured rib and could miss six to eight weeks because of the injury, which would initially rule him out for Saturday's Premier League clash with Chelsea and a crucial pair of World Cup qualifiers for Argentina next week.

Re: 3DD English Premier league Fantasy Football League
Which Of These Are Real FA Cup Team Names?
as Don Trump Jr, AKA Not Ivanka, would say, I love it!
always had to chortle when riding the train past Cockfosters
Probably just a legend but when asked if he knew the way to Cockfosters, Michael Caine allegedly replied, "yeah, drink it warm!"

Re: 3DD English Premier league Fantasy Football League
I had started to feel really guilty about how long it had taken me to get the cup delivered to Allison, so I broke down, flew to D.C., and hand-delivered it to her

Based on m y teams performance so far I think I must have decided that I didn't want the suspicious character on the right turning up at my house with the cup this year.sactochris wrote:whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:I had started to feel really guilty about how long it had taken me to get the cup delivered to Allison, so I broke down, flew to D.C., and hand-delivered it to her

Very cool, indeed! Thanks so much for the amazing service, WWCD! Given the current 3DD EPL Fantasy Football League standings, it looks like the cup will be staying in DC for a nice long whilesactochris wrote:Very cool!whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:I had started to feel really guilty about how long it had taken me to get the cup delivered to Allison, so I broke down, flew to D.C., and hand-delivered it to her
It was great seeing you and Jen. Hope you guys can make it back to DC for a visit sometime!

when announcers say "Vertonghen" (Spurs man Jan Vertonghen), am I the only one who hears it as "the Tongan"?

I ditch Wayne Rooney because he hasn't played in the last two fixtures and now he's got a brace and it isn't even half time.

He's bagged a treble now. I'm never watching football again.

Re: 3DD English Premier league Fantasy Football League
Damn, I hate when that happens. Which is one reason I'm resisting the temptation to dump Dele Alli. I also note that J. Sterling of MCI, my initially great "find" of last year who was ultimately disappointing is more or less tearing up the league but to no benefit for me as I gave up on him this season.sactochris wrote:whatwouldcooleydo? wrote:Story of my EPL fantasy life: I pick a player and immediately he either dries up or gets hurtsactochris wrote:I ditch Wayne Rooney because he hasn't played in the last two fixtures and now he's got a brace and it isn't even half time.

Arsenal - ManU was something to see today. Worth searching for and if you recorded it, watch it sooner rather than later. Unfortunately the same cannot be said about Spurs.
