  1. Well, you play owner of a team. You take the list of all the players in the league, they're ranked by how well they scored last year, and you assemble them in an order according to who you'd want first. Then there's a draft, and you get a team of 20 players, usually 2 QB's, a few wide receivers, a few running backs, a kicker or two, some defenses, and voila, you've got a team. Then, each week, you pick 10 players, 1 QB, 3 WR's, 2 RB's, and so on.. everyone plays the same number of each position, and depending on how those players score that week in actual gameplay, you get points for yardage gained, touchdowns, field goals, etc. Every week you compete against one of the other teams in the league. Whoever scores the most points wins. It's pretty straightforward, and can be alot of fun.

  3. Yeah, that Jets Colts game was surprisingly awesome! The wife (who actually likes football, yes, I'm lucky) says "I can't believe this is going to be the only game on, we already know the Colts are going to kill the Jets".. Heh.. It was a much better game than either of us expected. And my entire bench this week was on bye weeks, except one.. Sitting, all alone on my bench, doing me absolutely no good, who do I have? Santana freaking Moss.. 27 point week, and he's sittin on his duff.. *sigh* I just didn't expect that against the Jags.

  8. George Hamilton was great as Zorro the Gay Blade. That movie's a riot. Beyond that, though, he's really only good when he's making fun of himself.

  19. Oh, don't get me wrong, Ole Fitty, I try to nominate different artists every week.. I don't keep nominating another Beatles song, or another Zep song, or whatever.. I was just being difficult.
  20. Same here.. I had tickets to see him 2 days after he died. They were a birthday present to my wife, we are both big fans of Mitch. We keep the tickets stuck to the fridge. Real shame he died so young.
  21. I'm really beginning to hate these lists. It's too hard to narrow down to ten! I feel like I'm committing a crime cutting some of these songs. 1. Can't Find My Way Home - Blind Faith 2. What'd I Say - Ray Charles 3. Dazed and Confused - Led Zeppelin 4. Midnight Train to Georgia - Gladys Knight and the Pips 5. Voodoo Child (Slight Return) - Jimi Hendrix 6. Alive - Pearl Jam 7.

  22. And, no, no restraint is necessary. If it's a great song, vote for it! My utmost apologies Malakin ! I was replying to your Post and accidentally deleted some of it. Sorry Mate!!! I feel really bad about it. Old55.
  23. I can't ever look at the video clips you guys post. I only really get to check out the forums at work, and our firewall blocks youtube and most video streams.. And Farin, if you like 74-75, you should check out the whole Ring album.. Great stuff, all their albums are just wonderfully written pop music that's light and enjoyable. For some reason, though, they only ever had a few minor hits.
  24. Could even be Norton. Norton is a big steaming pile of doo-doo. Get yourself AVG anti-virus for free and a-squared malware protection download them, disconnect from the internet, turn off norton, and run both of those programs. If those don't help, then Onkel Joe's probably right about your power supply.
  25. Wow.. It never occured to me to get personally offended at someone else's fame, however undeserved or fleeting it may be. What would you do if you spotted K-Fed on a beach!?
