After a hard fought inaugural season of the Finders Keepers Rotisserie league, I finally came out on top. This is the first year of keeper league that is based on contracts to define the ability to keep players from year to year. There are a lot of kinks to iron out in order to prevent… Read More »
On league night Monday, I reached the ‘Zone’ where peace and tranquility result in effortless shots that were bang-on. I shot a 2-under 68 on Goose-Moors at Conestoga. Between 9 on Goose and 5 on Moors, I had 6 consecutive birdies! The final birdie was on the 180yd par 3 on Moors. I struck a… Read More »
Well a few weeks ago, and rightly so, I mentioned my game stinks. Well, it stinks less since I realized I hadn’t been shifting my weight to the front on contact. Now it is shaping up. Last week I won low gross in the league and in the past 2 weeks I’ve won skins that… Read More »
Yes, I have re-acquired the coveted Dick Butkiss Tropy as the champion of the Monday Morning QB Fantasy Football League. It has been three years since the trophy has resided in my home. And the timing couldn’t be any better. The last time I won it, Olivia was the same age as Christien, and she… Read More »

The plus side was that I had a healthy team and *probably* had really good matchups for my players. I can’t remember. Ignorance is bliss. The next two… Read More »
After starting the season 6-2 and posting on this site the overwhelming win in week 8 where I topped the century mark, the remainder of the season took a nosedive. Just when the team was looking unbeatable, I took injuries to my top QB and my top RB and there was no way to stop… Read More »
Last Saturday I spent a VERY rare moment watching a bit of the hockey. There was a big hub-bub in both Montreal and T.O. around the retirement of 2 jersey numbers: 33 and 17 respectively. It’s funny, I was a HUGE fan back in the 80’s and into the early 90’s. Patrick Roy was a… Read More »
In 2006, I won the fantasy football pool. Still trying so hard to win the baseball pool, but that’s a different story. It’s clear to me that I’m a little better judge of football talent as it pertains to fantasy. Correction, I think I’m better in a dynasty environment were I can pluck out the… Read More »
