:mad

I guess I'll be putting him back in my number one spot and hope my draft pick is higher than yours.

Fuck you Ana, I saw him first :ninja I want that smiley bastard for myself.

 

[USF Sam]

When does this all kick off anyway?

when it starts

Unfortunately, he's right.

The NFL is in a lock-out situation right now. Nobody knows when the season will start.

Right now, our draft isn't scheduled until mid-August and the first games are SUPPOSED to be in September.

:24: He was my golden boy the first time I ever played FF.

He's not too hard on the eyes, either.

 

[HK]

I have to wait till September?!


No problem. Gives me loads of time to hack into Ana's account and move Larry to 25th :ninja

Here's the latest news, for those that don't follow the NFL too closely.

FORT BRAGG, N.C. -- NFL commissioner Roger Goodell will spend the weekend preparing for the next set of negotiations, energized by this week's secret talks that he believes show both sides are committed to ending the labor dispute.

While the owners and players spent Friday in a St. Louis courtroom arguing over the legality of the lockout, Goodell visited with troops at a U.S. Army base in North Carolina with Carolina Panthers coach Ron Rivera.

At the end of a long day at Fort Bragg that included trying on -- but not using -- a parachute, Goodell took questions from soldiers before telling reporters there's some reason for optimism following the talks in Chicago.

"The importance is to have the principals talk," Goodell said. "That's what we were interested in doing, have the owners and players talk to one another. That was accomplished this week. ... That's a positive sign for us."

Goodell was far from specific -- he wouldn't say when the next round of talks would be held or if the owners will be preparing another offer -- but acknowledged both sides showed a willingness to work toward a deal.
He wouldn't say how the two sides would compromise on the stumbling blocks in the negotiations, mostly notably how to divvy up $9 billion in annual revenue.

"I would just tell you that both sides are committed to continuing the dialogue," Goodell said. "In negotiations, you're making different suggestions, recommendations and proposals from time to time. I think both sides will do that in a responsible fashion."

Goodell agreed that having the lawyers absent and the players and owners meeting directly -- Rivera acknowledged Panthers owner Jerry Richardson was there -- helped get the talks rolling.
"I still believe principle to principle is the best way to really get the kind of dialogue you need so people understand the different perspectives," Goodell said.

But time is running out. Already free agency has been delayed, minicamps canceled and optional workouts put on hold. Training camps are scheduled to open next month.

Goodell wasn't spared from the fans' frustrations at Fort Bragg. One soldier accused the owners of being the players' "No. 1 distraction" and asked Goodell, "Where's the passion, the love of game?"

"I understand the frustration and criticism because people want football," Goodell said. "You hear that everywhere you go. I heard that all day today. That's what we're in the business of doing. You have to make sure you're taking the right steps, though, to protect the game for a long-term basis."

I just spotted a line in my own post...

"I still believe principle to principle is the best way to really get the kind of dialogue you need so people understand the different perspectives," Goodell said.

:24: No shit the owners want the lawyers out of the room and to talk to the players only.

Your typical owner is a businessman in his 60s who made BILLIONS by being smart and strategic. He has been negotiating his entire life.

Your typical player is a guy 22-33 who dropped out of college as a junior when his major was "Sports Entertainment" and he had cheerleaders doing his homework. He hasn't made a decision for himself since his agent signed him in junior high.

The owners will eat the players alive. :24:

We're going to need a lot of jello if this is going on until the autumn!

Probably not that many bathing suits though.

Just a reminder of where we are, since after the Ana/HK shenanigans football isn't really front and center in anybody's mind...

***********************************************************************************

Porterjack and DA need to get with the program and make their teams.

I really doubt that BC or Donnie will be joining us, so we are waiting to hear back from Tang. If he signs up I'll lock it down at 12 and that's it.

We have 2 months until the draft, and that is figuring the NFL will get its shit together, so there is no rush on this one.

In the meantime...



LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!!!

WELCOME TO THE "LARRY'S MY MAN, BITCH!" JELLO BRAWL!!!


In this corner, out of the UK... H "Tiger" K!!!

In this corner, out of the US... Ana "Demon" Theliiiaaaaa!!!!


Ladies, I expect a nasty fight. Kicking, clothes ripping, slapping, clothes ripping and if some clothes ripping can be thrown in to, that'd be great.

And.... FIGHT.
