Tuesday Afternoon QB: Where I exact my revenge on La Machine and get ready to do the same on Renal Failure next week

As promised a little while ago, I would exact my revenge on Chris Cameron and his La Machine team and so I have as this past weekend, I defeated them 93-86. Admittedly, it wasn't as good as the 138-63 thrashing he put on me back in Week 5. But a win is still a win...and while I'll be playing in the first round of the playoffs next week, Chris will be watching from the sidelines.

Admittedly, though, the view from the sidelines anymore isn't that bad when you have female reporters like this:

or this:

*******

Chris and I both had five players in double figures, but the difference was this guy:

Nope, not as pretty as the view from the sidelines, but still a thing of beauty to behold when he's on his game as he was this past Sunday.

Branch amassed 26 fantasy points as he had eight receptions for a career-high 151 yards, including a 59-yard strike at the end of the first half in a 36-7 dismantling of the Bears.

Chris had no players who hit the 20-point mark, although LeSean "Shady" McCoy came close with 19 points as he had 149 yards on 16 carries, but no touchdowns thankfully.

******

In the first round of the playoffs, in both this league and another league, the FTWL started by LOBO of Predator Press, I face the same opponent: Renal Failure. Like Chris, RF already has beaten me once in week 9 but by a much closer margin of 132-112. So once again, I will be out to exact my revenge.

Vengeance will be sweet like this:

Next week the back of the shirt will read "Unfinished Fucking Ramblers"!

LaMachine Must Break the HBFFL

2008 left a bad taste in the figurative mouth of LaMachine. A One-point loss in the Championship game tends to do that to a team, especially when it comes at the hand of a cross-dresser.


Enjoy your defending umm ship umm ness umm whatever for the sixteen weeks you have it Defending Champion. I think this clip sums up the pain you and everyone else will feel in the 2009 season...



The only difference this time is that Ivan Drago will actually win the damned fight. There’s no script in this fantasy season analogy that leads to a championship loss like there was in Rocky IV.

Don’t sing it bring it you all say?

Consider it brought. And brought. And then brought some more.

We start with the only returning member from the 2008 squad, quarterback Donovan McNabb. His backup this year is Jake Delhomme.

How about this squad of running backs: Michael Turner, Ryan Grant, Chris Johnson, Ray Rice, and Knowshon Moreno?

If the impressive list of backfield domination does not have Defending Champion trembling in his high heels, and the entire HBFFL for that matter there is more where that came from.

Calvin Johnson leads the wide receiver squad. This is a guy that amassed a staggering 1,331 yards and twelve touchdowns for Detroit, a team that lost every single game last season. Joining him on LaMachine’s roster is Wes Welker, Bernard Berrian, and Donald Driver.

Scared yet Mr. Thong-Beneath-His-Business-Suit man? Worried yet fellow league owners?

Finally, rounding out the machine-like scoring in 2009 are tight ends Chris Cooley, Kevin Boss; kicker John Kasey, and the mighty Tennessee defense/special teams.

LaMachine is serving notice to the entire league and not just Defending Champion. You have no chance to survive. Make your time.
