Last
week's question, "What NFL team was the firsr to have an insignia on
their helmet?" (Bonus points for year and the artist).
In 1948, the Rams became the first team to have a
helmet insignia. The distinctive Ram horns were hand painted by
the team's halfback, Fred Gehrke. This week's question is "Who was the first Chicago Bear player to ever gain more than 100 yards rushing and receiving in the same game?" a. Matt Forte b. Beattie Feathers c. Gale Sayers d. Walter Payton e. Bobby Douglass This week's winners will receive Todd Moulton's new self-help book. This book will help you lose like a pro... Just like the Norwood Slammers. |

This week's checklist:
1. Make sure you check your roster prior to Thursday games to make sure you don't lock in or lock out the wrong player. Your other players for Sunday and Monday will lock in at 12:59 Sunday morning (with the exception of those goofy early European games that the NFL schedules). 2. Kalish is Pete's (plpurvis@bellsouth.net) back up if for some reason you have to get a hold of the league office before game time (or go on record) Jeff's email, JKalish@shepherdagency.com for backup. VP Jeff Kalish now has administrative privileges if anyone has problems with the website. 3. Karl's quick tutorial on the "My Fantasy League Software, http://offl-balls.com/howtoguide.htm. 4. League Entry is $120. Free agents, $5 a pop. You can pay me in advance or wait. Just don't leave me hanging at season's end. 5. To enjoy the music with your pc table for the site, you need Adobe Flash. The FireFox browser now longer supports Flash. For cell phone, they do offer the FlashFox browser now for anDroid. 6. For cell phones, here is the wireless live scoring link here. (Note there is a MyFantasyLeague available in your app store). The link above is a nice clean look for my taste. 7. I like to listen to live updates on my PC with the GameDay Program, download here GAMEDAY APP. Great App, it is Microsoft based.... Use League ID 13439 when prompted. Turn up the volume and enjoy.
Cordially,
P. L. Purvis

The TRASH TALK WITH THE LINGUIST Diaper Genies – Mel … you lucked out with Matt Ryan, but wouldn’t it be nice if you had any WR to actually catch the ball… Maybe Vinatieri or the PHI D/ST can carry you to the playoffs. Flying Gators – Joe… Can you say, I need a QB… Pray for the return of Big Ben to bring Antonio Brown back to relevance and the health of LeSean McCoy… Denver D/ST drafted way too early based on scoring to date. Tuna Wranglers – Rick… How has that reach for Russell Wilson during the draft worked out for you… No defense and an anemic WR corps…Without Ezekiel Elliott you are the Norwood Slammers MYLF – Kitty… This is not your mother’s GB offense… Back that horse or cat up… Pray for Jay Ajayi’s health and that Drew Brees and Marvin Jones keep it up… 2-6 presents a hard path to the playoffs. $5 Footlongs – Mathew… QB? Got QB?... Without David Johnson and Greg Olsen you would be 0-7… Hope starting Olsen on his Bye week worked out for you, the runner-up in last year’s playoffs… Can you say fantasy website subscription/no skill/luck anyone? Deflators – Kyle… The Tevin Coleman injury hurts… Booker pickup could help… Draft darlings ODB and Jordy Nelson have left you wanting… If it were 2014/2015 Jamaal Charles, Kelvin Benjamin and Tyler Eifert might help… . Midnight Riders – Pete… Todd Gurley at #5 in the draft… OUCH… Charcandrick West could be the answer… Oh right, your playoff hopes rest on Charmander…UGH…Spencer Ware helps, but if Mike Evans gets hurt, you can go back to planning the date and time for the 2017 draft… Norwood Slammers – Todd & Laurie… Do you have any players this week on IR, on bye or GTD that will not start… Please check… It is like you both woke up and went FA crazy… Melvin Gordon does not a team make… Hope 2017 works out better for you both…. Fanatics – Mark… You have to hope Carlos Hyde gets healthy as the rest of your RB’s won’t win you a game… Nice WR corp but with Cutler throwing to Jeffery and Osweiler to Hopkins is worrisome… Dez will need to be all-world from this point forward or you are done… Cunning J… Without Blount drafted in the 8th round, you would be average at best… No WR 2 to speak of and if Julio Jones gets hurt, the road to the playoffs would get harder if not impossible… Fighting Fish – Robert… 2015 champs attempting to repeat… How is that Aaron Roidgers 1st round pick treating you… Kirk Cousins has 3 points less on the year… You need Lamar Miller to live up to his 2nd round draft slot or your rancid WR corp won’t help your defense of the title… Belichick Yourself – Angel… DeMarco Murray has proved to be a solid pick… But, now that Larry Fitzgerald has come back to 38 year-old earth… It will take Dak or Derek Carr to lead you to the promised land… Not likely to happen… New York Gangsters – Jimmy… First off… HA HA HA… Kickers going in the 14th round of the draft have outscored the miss-prone Gostkowski… Without Andrew Luck you are winless… If Matt Forte goes down you will struggle to win again this year… Interceptors – Michael… The fantasy gods hate you Bruh… 5th highest scoring in the league and 4-4 through the first 8 weeks… Losing first month darling CJ Anderson hurts, but pray for the health of Matt Stafford and AJ Green… Top 2 defenses will help… But, you can’t play them both each week… Rest assured that the playoffs can be made with the highest points scored and a terrible record… - LINGUIST OUT! |
