The joys of fantasy football

Tip No. 1 for fantasy football succcess: get to your draft lobby early. Tip No. 2 for fantasy football success: if you don't get there early, disable autopick.

Every year I try to play fantasy sports and get bored by the third week when my team starts tanking. Some people have insane strategies for drafting players and rotating them in and out as the weeks go by. Me? I usually just let the computer pick, because I'm too lazy or inept to make the live draft.

This year is going to be different. You'll see.

Umatilla soccer today

I'm heading out to catch the Umatilla soccer team take on Irrigon in a home tilt. This will be my first chance to see both teams in action. We'll have an update as soon as I get back. Then it's a QUICK recap, as our computer systems will be undergoing some sort of fancy maintenance at 9 p.m.

First pitch

Welcome to my new blog, where I'll endeavor to entertain, inform and tell the story of what happens before teams take the field (or court, or pitch, or track) and after the final buzzer sounds. More to come...soon.
