I was going to submit my application to Unlucky to be part of the team, but I've changed my mind now. I'm too scared. I'm intimidated. I'm petrified. I think the pressure would be too great. I'd probably have a meltdown and draft Bubby Brister as my QB. I think I'll stick to posing as a 12 year old and winning Terry Cannon's kiddie leagues.

Someone's elevator doesn't go to the top floor. This is the kind of talk that gets you bounced in week 2. :rotflmao: when this happens. Smith - the only domination you'll be doing is of the guy in your basement with the little red ball in his mouth. Unlucky - give me a sword buddy. Please.
Ease up there MT. It's a long time until June 5th.I'm better at drafting than I am at trash-talking, but I do have this to say: I expect my team to do pretty well. No joking, I really do. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Quick - Somebody hold MT back. He's going crazy. :rotflmao:I'm better at drafting than I am at trash-talking, but I do have this to say: I expect my team to do pretty well. No joking, I really do. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.

Just like you said in your little high-school basketball rant. It can all be taken away in an instant. POOF! Where's Herd?

Well, I came in fourth last year in terms of being booted off, but I think I did better than that in total points.Just like last year?RB T. Barber NYG - 22%RB C. Garner OAK - 18%I expect my team to do pretty well. No joking, I really do. So put that in your pipe and smoke it.
Good writing and I was smiling all the way through. However, I was driving home from work today thinking about FBg's and the message board in general. For some reason, Herd came to mind. What I remember a lot of last year Herd was you talking about Hollings from Houston. When you read that name, does it read to you like fingernails being raked down a chalkboard?
Anyways, I hope to get a chance at you and the others from this board this year. If not, then maybe next, or the next or the next......Where's the big dog himself???

Not at all. A guy I thought was a good find on the waiver wire in week 4 or 5 didn't pan out. No harm, no foul.
I actually prefer to make such bold predictions, because sometimes they pan out. It sure beats wondering who has more value, Lamont Jordan or Labrandon Toefield.Colin
OK, Maurile... I know you are a good Christian boy, but even YOU can learn to trash-talk. I'll help you. It's like anything else; you start with a foundation, then you build from there. Let's begin with your basic
attempt to trash-talk. I'll give you credit for trying anyway. Oh boy. So here's your foundation:"So put that in your pipe and smoke it."
Interesting new Mahjong and Arkansas material.
Actually, if you can find someone to read the rules to you, the top four from each league advance to the finals. So, not only is it possible for the MB to get shut out of the Top 8, but it's likely.
I'll keep practicing, and maybe by June 5 I'll be able to lay the *#^$@ smack down on some people's rears. Okey, dokey!
Pretty solid point. I mean, if I COULD get LT2 in the 3rd round, wouldn't I take him there if I COULD. So why REACH on anyone???
You'll have to excuse Couch Potato. He's still shell shocked from the announcement of the Dream Team.I thought he was a atheist.
OK, I knew Mahjong had been covered already, but has someone really beaten me to generalized math test scores from Arkansas? If so, bravo, but I haven't seen it.As for the "finals" vs 7th place: I thought the fact that you yahoos aren't even going to come close to making the "finals" was understood. The best any of you could realistically hope for would be to manage a smidge higher that the theoretical minimum of 7th in your DIVISION, which is what I was discussing.Oh and rest assured I CAN read, although when perusing the site for meaningful football analysis from the likes of the guys the staff has put together to represent them, I often wonder whether it is really worth doing so.Interesting new Mahjong and Arkansas material.Actually, if you can find someone to read the rules to you, the top four from each league advance to the finals. So, not only is it possible for the MB to get shut out of the Top 8, but it's likely.
Maurile,Don't know you buddy, but if you're the Christian Boy they claim you to be, cling to your guns. It's not trash talking that gets you the trophy/money anyway. In fact, I like to stay away from it and go under the radar. They won't know what the heck hit em!In fact, you ever been in a league where the first 5 weeks or so there's so much trash talk you can hardly keep up with it. Then in week 13, and 14 it's like a ghostown and all those guys are doing something else. Me too, lots of them. I actually take satisfaction in it.Is siding with an FBG bad?Thanks for the tips, Couch Potato!
You told me to use the blue ball this time. Did you change your mind this week?
Jeez, and you expect to get picked for the team and write analyses of your picks, Kleck? I before E, except after C. Except that weird is spelled weird.As far as the athiest stuff, I know from his Footballguys.com profile that he has a BA in Theology. Maybe I jumped to a conclusion and did an ###*U*ME thing? Dunno.I thought he was a atheist.
Now this is the POST of the day! :rotflmao:OK, Maurile... I know you are a good Christian boy, but even YOU can learn to trash-talk. I'll help you. It's like anything else; you start with a foundation, then you build from there. Let's begin with your basic
Now, that sounds like something our grandfathers would say. We need to ramp up to the 21st century. Who smokes pipes today? That's right, crack addicts. Thus:
"So put that in your crack-pipe and smoke it."
But 'smoke it' is dull and ordinary, and not edgy at all, so you change it up a bit:
"So put that in your crack-pipe and choke on it."
OK, so now at least you got 'em choking. But who are you talking to? The gents at the club? No. The inferior riff raff you plan to stomp, right? So you punctuate the sentence with a bit of namecalling which demonstrates an air of mental superiority:
"So put that in your crack-pipe and choke on it, simpletons."
Trouble is, there's no punch to the beginning of the sentence. You want to start strong and finish strong. 'So put that' just doesn't get it done. Perhaps:
"Stuff it in your crack-pipe and choke on it, simpletons."
I do respect that you are a Godly man, Maurile, but you can pretend to swear without actually swearing. That's a beauty of typing versus talking. So let's add a little spice to the trash you're talking and add some swearing symbols here and there:
"Stuff it in your !@#$%&* crack-pipe and choke on it, you !@#$%&* simpletons."
And as I said, start strong, finish strong. An authoritative command at the beginning and an exclamation point at the end would help:
"Hey, I'm telling you to stuff it in your !@#$%&* crack-pipe and choke on it, you !@#$%&* simpletons!"
Finally, the use of bold and italics is always a nice touch:
"Hey, I'm telling you to stuff it in your !@#$%&* crack-pipe and choke on it, you !@#$%&* simpletons!"
So you see Maurile, trash-talking is easy. It just takes a little bit of planning. You can turn a wimpy little "So put that in your pipe and smoke it" into a much more fun "Hey, I'm telling you to stuff it in your !@#$%&* crack-pipe and choke on it, you !@#$%&* simpletons!" without hardly breaking a sweat.
Practice, Maurile, and you too can become an irritating trash-talker. You haven't arrived unless you can properly annoy people. Good luck!
AtheistJeez, and you expect to get picked for the team and write analyses of your picks, Kleck? I before E, except after C. Except that weird is spelled weird.As far as the athiest stuff, I know from his Footballguys.com profile that he has a BA in Theology. Maybe I jumped to a conclusion and did an ###*U*ME thing? Dunno.I thought he was a atheist.
It's OK, but I should have used "an" instead of "a". He also likes to argue with creationists.
*takes a bow*
*taking another bow*... and wondering what I'm doing with my life... Oh man, this is sad...
Stop backpedaling. "Atheist" means someone who's not religious. Athiest means most athi, which is clearly what you were trying to say.AtheistJeez, and you expect to get picked for the team and write analyses of your picks, Kleck? I before E, except after C.

None here, but that topic has been beaten to death by scores of other 'trash talkers'.
I have obviously misunderestimated you. I rarely give much thought to preliminary matters and prefer to focus on finals and championships. I do feel for the four Dream Teamers that won't be able to make it out of the regular season.
Good to see you making progress.
I only knew it because I had to look it up. :JoeT: Kleck = a worse speller than DrugrunnerKleck, buddy, you got me. Wow. I've been spelling that word wrong since I was a Tater Tot. I try to avoid learning something every day, but today I can't. Thanks. :JoeT:Atheist
unlucky and 11 yet to be named unfortunates
I'm practicing my writing skills here before I go over to that scary thread where the floodlight is shining on me and I have to plead my case and grovel and bare my soul just to have a chance to be in the same draft as guys like Rudnicki and Dowling. I just realized how pathetic that is. Maybe I will be a Cannon kiddie instead.
If by 'pathetic' you mean 'finally having a goal in life', then I agree with you.
Not really pathetic, it just shows that you want it. I've read some of them who "think" they're in just because of being around for awhile and are relying on their past.To me, that's like when Reggie Jackson and Cal Ripken made the All-Star game in baseball towards the end of their career because of their names while young talent who deserved it didn't get in. I hated that and still do. I never rest on my laurels and pray I never start. Probably one of my better character traits as it helps keep a person sharp and edgey.
glad you realize how fortunate you would be to get in the same league as the HERD and I. This is not an honor that should be bestowed upon just anybody. You must prove your worth with tales of dominance and then you may be rewarded with a chance to compete against the best of the best.you can do it. live the dream
even if things don't work out and you are not one of the chosen few, at least you will be secure in the knowledge that you gave it your best effort. if you are selected, well then that's just another thing to add to your resume because not everybody gets a chance to get steamrolled by a dream team. 
lucky to be spending all your time here. you must not sleep eat or work. What a life you lead. Congrats!! wouldn't we all like the same life
Look at ole Dodds talking some ####!Let's see. The Board screams to have Unlucky be their leader. We say OK. Mike is a nice guy. Then he posts that he needs until May 30th to pick his team. Hopefully he drafts faster than he reads. The draft is June 5th THIS YEAR.I expect by the time you guys actually figure out who is on your team, we will have completed about 20 mock drafts, designed a custom Draft Dominator, and solved World Hunger.Just like the real NFL, everyone has a chance right now. Enjoy the time before the draft. On paper, you have an equal chance of winning.
Mike,Put me in coach! I gotta make Dodds eat his words.Just like the real NFL, everyone has a chance right now. Enjoy the time before the draft. On paper, you have an equal chance of winning.
