I’m also enjoying the games today. Sitting at 20th right now (team Vicktorious Secret) but I expect to see more of the Bruno Boys show up to play tomorrow and don’t expect to be on the first page after some mediocre performances from my players. Hopefully the guys I picked from the remaining 4 teams do well for me. I know I loaded up on Jets and Cowboys for the wildcard. Have to say I am impressed that Dallas has done it again this week with Philly. Also somewhat concerned that Shonn greene got more carries than Thomas Jones, but at least Jones won me my championship last week so I can’t complain much.

It’s Day 1 of Wildcard Week Pickle…I’m just getting warmed up…played three positions today…don’t get too confident too soon…I like to start slow and then make my move…

Kudos to those who had the “fill in the blank” to roll with Felix Jones in Wildcard Week…he was in the mix for me until yesterday afternoon when I started tweaking my lineup…I hope the ROI on the more expensive guys I went prove to be worth it…Looking forward to the Sunday games…

i knew THAT comment would flush you out of the woodwork.  just missing the consistent volleys of the past weeks.  how all is well

my only other question, do you think you should be bruno boys allie, or switch that to bruno girl allie?

Pickle…I like being the only Bruno Boy that is a “girl” but Bruno Girl Allie is way too obvious and that’s not how I roll…and besides…I’ll always be “BBFG” first and foremost…

Black Tetra…if you are referring to me…I’m hopelessly (but happily and proudly) addicted to FF…I’m a fierce competitor…love stats…the rush of snagging an emerging impact player off the wire before others can snap him up (e.g. Jamaal Charles)...enjoy learning new strategies for fielding a winning team and frankly…it’s so much fun…and if you can win money too…then count me in!

Football is in my blood…family had season tickets to the hometown pro team and I have three older brothers who all played football through college…so I had two choices…learn to love the game or be left on the sidelines…I knew what “third and long” was by the time I was seven years old…I think I made the right choice…

No offense meant…just not many (any) women (let alone attractive ones) playing FF in any of my leagues…

My goal at this point is to just make it on to the front page of our Bruno Boys Gridiron challenge. That means to be in the top 50. If I can manage that….I will be happy after the bad start I have had.  tongue wink

I’ll say you are! Both of us are! Someone strapped a rocket on BBFG though. She is taking off like a rocket to the front of the pack. She went from page 4 to page 2 in just a half a game, and she is still going!

She just passed me on that Jennings TD play. I’m inching my way onto page 2 now in 47th with 117 or so points….At this point, at least there are only 3 of the Bruno “Boys” in front of me…

so i think you should now call yourself BBFA$$G.  and if you could get a ring that went over all your fingers that would be even better.

yes, 35th is quite good and especially compared to 123th.  but while you have won the wildcard, i look to excel in the weeks to come (i hope)

Pickle…I have won nothing yet…my goal was to get off to a solid start in Wildcard Week…during the first quarter and part of the second of the GB-AZ game you can be sure I was second-guessing my decision to start four Packers…it’s not over til it’s over baby!
