Working On My Fantasies

Time to come up with a game plan for Fantasy Football, stat. So I figure we have a few options that we need to figure out. Everyone please make your preferences known. Ideally we can get a competitive league going.

Fee:

  • Nothing. Pros: more people will play. Cons: more people will play and stop caring around October 1st about their team.
  • $10. Pros: we have enough for a reward at the end of the season, people will be less likely to have an abandoned team. Cons: Fewer teams, bonus only applies to the end of the season so the lower teams lose anything to play for if they are out of the playoffs
  • $50. Pros: weekly prizes for high score, higher stakes means more competition. Cons: Fewer teams

Draft:

  • Live. How many people could make it? What about those that can't?
  • Online: More people can make it
  • Some weird combination of the two - we could bring our laptops over to Joe's and just do the online stuff individually, and the out of towners could still participate. The bad side is we all look like a bunch of tools sitting around with our laptops.

Chicken Littles

I was up in the Cincinnati to buy some hockey get which means one thing: Carrolton fucking Kentucky. And Carrolton means one of two things, Fatal Bus Crashes and Chicken Littles. And I wasn't driving no bus. For $5 even you can still get eight chicken littles and the pure joy of the lady behind the counter hating you because they know that some poor bastard is gonna have to wrap each one of those little bastards up.

Anyways, I want to register FastFoodRarities.com where you can post locations of fast food restaurants that carry rare fast food items. I can't think of a better use of the internet.
