Blogging Has Become Difficult



"Where's the blog post son!?" "Cro isn't so prompt with his blogs after a tough loss. Lol" "Slacking.. I usually read blog on my Tuesday lunch"

I received all these texts today. Not surprisingly, they all came from teams who won a game in Week 6. It's the same thing every week. After a win, I'm on top of the blog. After anyone wins, they can't wait to read the blog. This week was much more difficult than usual. Feeling so good, things went awry. I'm sorry to make you wait to read this. Hopefully your Tuesday morning work poop wasn't ruined.

This week featured some great work at the Taproom. No Beef of the Week, just a Hero of the Week. The recipient: Dosh Whye

Dosh showed up at the bar this week clad in BC gear despite a loss to Clemson. He was involuntary (or voluntary) carded at the entrance despite nobody else in the entire bar being carded. Confusing. While we each ordered a beer on tap, Dosh went straight for the special of a bucket of beers for $25. I don't even know what kind of beer it was, but who cares.

Dosh immediately made a connection with our server simply based on the fact that they were the same caramel skin tone. Dosh flirted here and there by completely blocking the aisle she had to pass through. Each time she passed by sliding sideways through the small area, she gave Dosh a look, which he interpreted as flirting. The game of cat and mouse continued until the end of the 1 PM games. Dosh went to "wait outside" for her as her shift had concluded. The day ended with Dosh going for 99 cent pizza and never speaking to her again. A true hero.


I'm only going to list rankings real quick and not much blurb. I'm still too upset about failing to avenge my semifinals loss to Fusco.

League 1

1. Team Toliver (6-0): Take my best player, I don't care. Still can't touch me.
2. Tweeting in the Trenches (4-2): The most undeserving. Screamed at baby after Blackmon 33 point effort.
3. The King's Crusaders (4-2): Disappointed with the blog.
4. Gen... SIKE ... Dueling Pylons (1-4-1): Still scoring tons of points. Terrible luck.
5. Lady Luck (4-2): Good starters. Terrible depth. That's what she said.
6. Stanky Monkeys (1-5): Poor guy's been suffering all season. A win deserves a reward.
7. RGIII for President (2-4): Underachievers of the year. Will get back towards the pack soon.
8. Threeing the Hogs (2-4): I'd bet on this team being in the relegation battle.
9. Geno 911 (4-2): Terrible team now bitten by injury bug. Lost to winless Stanky Monkeys. Lucky to not be last.
10. Tequila Party Gnomes (1-4-1): Could possibly tie Pylons for second time. This team is in trouble.


League 2

1. Darkest Norseman (4-2): Took down the #1 team. Game needs work. Temporary move up
2. Bo$$town Beasts (4-2): No shame in losing to another strong team. Still expect big things here.
3. EEB Ventura (4-2): I can't provide justification for this ranking.
4. Game on Dick Bag (3-3): Still a fan of this roster. Had its ups and downs, but getting better.
5. Jersey Leshoure (2-4): On the verge of breaking out. Or on the verge of sinking even further. That's how you end up in the middle.
6. Super Mario Brothers (4-2): Not impressed but still putting up big weeks. Gotta be frustrating to play this team.
7. Street Pigeons (2-4): There's no correlation to the fact that the #10 team in League 1 drafted your team. None.
8. Team Meat Collage (1-5): Still maintain that drinking whiskey with TPG before the draft is never the way to go.


It was a struggle to get through this blog, but I didn't want to leave everyone hanging this week. Hopefully I emerge with a win and more content next week. As usual, I'm always accepting guest bloggers for Beef of the Week or more.

Come to my halloween party. Good luck Week 7.
