I Need Suggestions!!!

It is officially 15 days til my birthday and if you know me, I don't just celebrate my birthday, I celebrate my birth MONTH! And this year I'm behind on the planning! I need suggestions for activities... Last year, I went Indoor Skydiving! I need something just as fun and exciting to do this year that I haven't done before. I've already had one fun, new activity and it was great!(yes, even BEFORE October got here!) Thanks Boo! ;)I think the best part was who I got to share the experience with. A truly amazing and special person whom I'm grateful to have in my life. So, I need you guys (if any of you still read this blog) to give me suggestions of things to do. Just leave it in the comments section!

Fantasy Football 2009

Well, I figured it's about time for a new blog post and since fantasy has started back, might as well start with that. Time to post MVPs for weeks 1 and 2.

Week 1 is always a tough week. Its the first game of the season, new team, new players, new competition, and you don't know what to expect. So the fact that we won I feel like the whole team deserves a recognition. I had alot of breakout stars and some, not so good starts, but overall, the team seems to be pretty solid. We'll work it out! However, since I have to award an MVP, week 1 will go to my defense, the Eagles DEF. Thanks to their efforts against the Panthers (and Jake Delhomme's cluelessness), they racked up 5 sacks, 5 interceptions, 2 fumble recoveries, and 2 TDs while allowing only 10 scoring points for the Panthers. This earned them 37 fantasy points and my week 1 MVP award!

Week 2 was not so good for me. We lost! And that's not something that occurs alot. But like I said, new team, new season, expanded league, so new competition. I still want to award an MVP though. B/c one player put it down for us Monday night and tried to help us come back from a 25pt deficit after Sundays games. He earned 21.20 fantasy points with his 24 rushing attempts for 136 yards and 2 TDs bringing us within 3 pts of our opponent. So week 2 MVP goes to Miami running back and one of my fave running backs Ronnie Brown!

So, the fantasy team is 1-1... for now!
