Did we ever look at the final fantasy football league results?

I enjoyed it a lot more than the yahoo one. There are only two things I really dislike: the bonuses, which are subjective to some faceless panel who make terrible choices every week, and the player values changing far too slowly. Drogba's still the most expensive striker to buy, despite being only the 33rd highest points striker and 9th on points/game.

Meanwhile, there's Santa Cruz, 3rd highest points striker and 6th on points/game, but 21st highest price striker. I should be paying more for Santa Cruz by the end of the season than Drogba, not 64% of his price.

Still, we all have the same problems there, it's not like yahoo where you have to pay close attention every week and sometimes they didn't even collect the points for Monday night games.

I came 7th in the end, not bad but I'll do better next year, on points at least. Learned a lot from mistakes this year, first time doing it. I don't actually know who won, a Man City fan, David Nolan, identify yourself. I wish people had just used their forum names.

I ended up in 10th on gaf, 5th on my work division (only 4 points separated 3rd and 5th) and 20th out of my work department. The reason I can't use my forum name is because we use it for work mainly but I think Atlético de Blah gives it away slightly that it's me. :lol

But never fear, Atlético de Blah will strengthen during the summer.

Next year is our year etc
 
Just for the record, I don't really like that shirt..... I thought the same about the current away shirt as well though and ended up really liking and buying it. :-/

Debating getting it its just selling out a lot as you'd expect. I would get the Argentina shirt despite them nowhere near the Euros with monster masch on the back but he'll be on my new Liverpool shirt so its redundant.
 
Man i'm posting on the NPd thread, i gotta quit that shit, i'm not doing anything major, low profile and all but i know i will say something meaningless that will get me banned.

Yeah. I have a new mechanism, if i have some real shit to say, i'll just P.M it. I bet that will make me not care, too much work to write a P.M.
 
I just used to hit up the Krispy Kreme in Mission Viejo at the Pit.

There was a pretty decent mom and pop place in the Ralphs shopping center on La Paz but I don't know if it still exists.

Arsenal speaking to Aquilani - Agent
by Laurent Picard, 19 May 2008

Roma midfielder Alberto Aquilani is discussing a possible move with Arsenal, agent Vincenzo Morabito has revealed.

Arsene Wenger is reported to be targeting a midfielder following the departure of Mathieu Flamini and 23-year-old Aquilani has emerged as an option for the North Londoners.

The Italian ace has enjoyed an excellent campaign with Giallorossi and his representative has warned Roma they need to reward him accordingly to keep him at Stadio Olimpico.

“Aquilani is speaking to Arsenal,” Morabito told Italia Uno. “We will have to see if Roma will be able to match his demands.”

Aquilani, whose performance against Real Madrid this season caught many an eye, has been strongly linked to the Spanish giants in the last couple months.

yeah, that sounds true. Doesn't sound at all like an agent trying to get a better deal for his client.

Yes NPD can do that to anyone.

This month was epic though so it was best to stay as far away as possible for everyones health.

And we're willing to pay £12m for... Stewart Downing!!!

:lol Funniest one so far this summer. Next Bendtner will be advising Adebayor to quit Arsenal.
 
Barcelona is a really shitty place to be right now.

And when the Barça fans started booing Deco and Eto at Home, trying to blame them for Barças shitty season, man that was sad.

Really sad, Barça fans are a piece of shit.
