It turns out I went 1-2 in fantasy football this weekend. I was pretty far behind in my big money league but Tiki Barber managed to pull out a tie. Since I actually brought up the tie breaker rule at the draft we had “Total Reserves” in place by yesterday and it turned out to be to my advantage. Ironically enough, we didn’t have one last year and when I brought it up no one really cared because “they don’t happen that often” and here it is in week 1. I had two ties last year and I wanted to be damn sure I wasn’t gonna get another. I chalk it up to a small personal victory. Add to that a loss by the Redskins and you have the makings of an okay day.
Although I do have to complain that my Fox broadcast of the Family Guy season primiere had audio off and on throughout the show. There were scenes that looked funny even without words and I was forced just to say “I bet this is really funny” and wait for the audio to come back. No, it’s not my Tivo or anything else in my setup.
