Ok, I have decided that wityhout a doubt I am the worse thing to ever happen to pro football. I had Alstott break his neck and Keyshawn get fired.

This year, I have made the follwing occur:

  • Culpepper has worse season ever
  • TO gets fired
  • Brian Westbrook goes down
  • Chris Henry gets busted for pot
  • Samkon Gadu blows out his knee
  • Brandon Stokely went from stud to dud

I have also been responsible for Curtis Martin and Vinny Testervede having their career worse seasons when I had them. Ditto Drew Bledsoe (second year with Buffalo, after a pretty solid first season there).

Amazing. I am taking bids via paypal to anyone who wants me to draft players from their most hated rivals next season. Guranteed trip to the superbowl!

Most of the guys drafted in the top 2 rounds were busts:

Curtis Martin, Kevin Jones, Julius Jones, Daunte Fumblepepper, Priest Holmes, Deuce McAllister, Randy Moss, Jamal Lewis, Donovan McNabb, etc.

Only way you were safe is if you were drafting high. LDT, Shaun Alexander, and Peyton were the top 3 picks in just about every league. Edge went either 4 or 5 in the vast majority of leagues (Holmes sometimes went 4th).

Unfortunately, I drafted 10th in two of my leagues and 11th in the other.

My top draftees in my leagues:

League 1: Randy Moss #10, Jamal Lewis #11. Both massive busts. #30 was Brian Westbrook, who was OK, and #31 was Andre Johnson, who was a massive bust.

League 2: Jamal Lewis #11, Deuce McAllister #14. I also took Andre Johnson #38. Three massive busts. My one good pick was Chad Johnson #35.

League 3: Jamal Lewis #11, Domanick Davis #14, Joe Horn #35, Marc Bulger #38. Not bad. Lewis is a huge bust, but D.Davis and Bulger played well until they were injured (but Bulger only played like 2/3rds of the season). Horn was OK.

Amazingly enough, I'm in the 2nd round of the playoffs in leagues 2 and 3, where I finished 5th and 4th respectively, out of 12 teams. In League 1, I finished 5th and missed the playoffs due to a tiebreaker.

Ok, I have decided that wityhout a doubt I am the worse thing to ever happen to pro football. I had Alstott break his neck and Keyshawn get fired.

This year, I have made the follwing [sic] occur:

[*]Culpepper has worse season ever

[*]TO gets fired

[*]Brian Westbrook goes down

[*]Chris Henry gets busted for pot

[*]Samkon Gadu [sic] blows out his knee

Well, you didn't waste a draft pick on Gado, at least. Chris Henry you couldn't have expected much out of. Westbrook was good for most of the season.

Culpepper and TO were big busts, yeah.

True there were a lot of busts, it just seems that really bad things happen to my players, not just poor productions. I mean I have had two of my #1 WRs get FIRED. That does't happen everyday.

    • Minecraft Chase the Skies update and Vibrant Visuals graphics overhaul lands next week

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Minecraft Chase the Skies update and Vibrant Visuals graphics overhaul lands next week by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe The second major game update of the year for Minecraft is almost here. Mojang today announced that its next Game Drop, Chase the Skies, is landing on June 17. Alongside it, the highly anticipated graphics overhaul, dubbed Vibrant Visuals, will be available too, making the day a rather big occasion for Minecraft fans. The Chase the Skies update has a large number of gameplay features and content, but one of the biggest is the expansion of the Ghast. Now, players will be able to find Happy Ghasts as a tameable mob, letting up to five players ride them on journeys across the skies. To get one, players will have to find small, dehydrated Ghasts near fossil structures in the Nether, then bring it to the overworld and feed it plenty of water. It is also possible to craft dried Ghasts from Nether materials. Other features of this update include a handy player locator bar, better leads functionality, craftable saddles, a new music disc, and more. As for the Vibrant Visuals upgrade, Mojang is touting a visual refresh that lets players witness how lights and shadows affect the Minecraft world. "Fly high with your happy ghast to watch the sunrise reflect on the rippling ocean, make art with shifting shadows, descend into dark depths, or simply sit back and enjoy the vivid beauty of each biome," says the studio. "With updated in-game visuals you’ll see how light and shadow transform the Overworld – water reflects, forests become shaded, fog drifts, and waterfalls glimmer in the light." The currently supported devices for Vibrant Visuals include Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, PC, as well as Android (Android: Adreno 640, Mali-G68, Mali-G77, or Xclipse 530 or higher) and iOS (A12 or M1 or higher.)   Unfortunately, the Vibrant Visuals upgrade will only be available on the Bedrock Edition of Minecraft, at least for now. Mojang has said that it plans to bring the visual overhaul to the Java Edition of Minecraft at a later date, but no information or release window has been announced just yet.

      Once people get use to the square-ish case, they'll probably switch the display to square as well.
