Brabson the Artist

While I was at Nick’s mom’s house the other day I stumbled across some of his art work from when he was in the 2nd grade.  Wow I wondered what his mom does for a living. 

The Blonde on the top right kind of resembles Chad Fidler with those long arms. 

 

Old Picture…..

While I was over at Gayle Fidler’s house I happened to notice this old pic of one of the Fidler boys…………

Fantasy Football ’07 Draft – AWARDS

Well the ’85 Bears draft is over, and the results are in.  This was the craziest year of the draft I ever recall.  Between one guy taking a kicker with his fourth pick, to the 7th place finisher last year risking his season by picking 8, yes 8, running backs with his 15 picks.  Now, if he plans to trade them, he’s OBVIOUSLY ok, but this was the strangest draft in recent memory.

To celebrate the draft today, let’s recap the draft by giving KEYSHAWS THRILLEST AND ILLEST AWARDS:

GOLDEN FOOT AWARD – Team taking the first kicker 

TEAM FLEM!!  This years powerhouse team went out on a limb with Adam Vinatieri with his fourth pick (37th overall).   This team will go the distance.

 

GOLDEN WHEELCHAIR AWARD – Team taking the oldest player

TEAM FLEM continues to celebrate fantasy excellance by taking 60 year old, Priest Holmes with the 24th overall pick and FLEM’s third pick.

Mt. RUSH-MORE AWARD – Team taking the most Running Backs

Weiner breaks the TEAM FLEM dominance by selecting not 5, not, 6, not even 7, but 8 running backs.  We only have 15 players, and Weiner took over half.

MR. LAST PICK OF THE DRAFT AWARD – Last player taken in the draft

F*ck Keyshawn takes DREW BENNETT with the 150th overall pick.  Why did DREW BENNETT go 150th?   Cause F*ck Keyshawn thats why!

 

 

ILLEST TEAM NAME OF THE DRAFT – The worst team name in the draft.

ICY COLD wins an award in just his first year in the ’85 BEARS.  Below is a pic of the ICY COLD – Brrrrr Spirit Dancers!  Nice work ICY COLD, that name has my motor runnin.

 

Cardinals Officially Blow…

Even though the Cardinals managed to win one game against the Cubs…. a loud shout was heard from the Cubs plane departing St. Louis, last evening…  “THANK-YOU….COME AGAIN”  in a distinct Quiki Mart accent.

The Cardinals are done and the Cubs have begun their run!

This would be great…..!!!!!

Steamboat performance

Chad I found where you can go and look at past results and I hate to be the one to point this out but this was your worst performance in your 6 years of competing in the Boat.  Even when you was 16 you was 5 minutes faster than what you are now.  It appears that you are starting to lose a step in your old age.  The good news however this is the highest you have ever placed in your age group, 17th is pretty good. 

Steamboat results

Chad finished only 38 seconds behind the winner.  If you leave a few words out it sounds way better.  Let me restate that Chad finished his second Mile only 38 seconds behind what the winner finished the 4 Miles.  Looks like you turned in a good time though.  Good Job Chad.  Bob and I just started our training this AM for next years Boat.  At 5 a.m. this morning Bob and I busted out a 2 mile run to get our day going.  Those Kenyons need to watch out because we are going to bring the competition next year.
