Week 8 Rewind

The Chairman is out sick this week, so as #2 in charge this year, I've vowed to take a plunge into the Chairman's weekly post.  I wonder what illness the Chairman has that he's too sick to write the Rewind?  If  I were sick, laying in bed puking, I think I could still take 15 minutes to get the job done.  By the way, I wonder what's wrong with him.  Is it sinusitis or strep throat?  Both those things are going around in GA.  Maybe it's the flue!  I told him he should have gotten that dang shot.  He's just scared of needles.  Well, enough about Mr. Sickly, I'm just glad I have the opportunity to write and entertain anybody reading for the next minute and a half.  It's my time to shine, and hopefully I don't flop like Moss' 2nd stint with the Vikings. 

Diving in the Week 8 Rewind, we have:
The GOP Tidal Wave Week 8 Player of the Week goes to MS Slug Salters.  This guy had 10 points this week.  It was a five point difference between winner and losers.  You gain or lose a lot of ground with weeks like this. 

The Week 8 Pick of the week is in just like Anthony Tolliver's free agency selection (and Lebron spiff) and is the Slug Salter.  The Salter had things fall his way with the Packers shutting out the J-E-T-S, Jets, Jets, Jets, and the Niners over the Bronco in the game against the pond.  These were two games, not even the world's strongest man would have pulled to victories.  It was these two picks that set him apart in Week 8. A worthy mention also goes to Puddin for Jax over the pitiful 'Boys.  

The Rick Fox Go Home Loser of the Week  could be Cowboys09 or SuperBowl "Not" Bound SeaHawks by scoring the week low 5 points by the Chairman's standards.  However, since I have the power to award who I want, the winner, or loser, of Week 8 is... dun dun dun... Rabid Terriers.  I don't even know the guy, but this guy has been in posts as winner of the week a handful of times.  He's in it again, but this time for scoring his lowest talley of the year with 7.  The sad thing is that was my score this week too.  Regardless, Yappy Terrier is sent home this week as Loser of the Week. 

Fantasy of the Week is Chief Red Beard's dream of winning just one game in the K&S Fantasy Football League. Dreams do come true, and a big congrats is in store as Chief Red Beard finally won a game.  The Chief even gave his competitor, Tha Baracudies, an advantage by playing a WR that was on a Bye week.  So, with a man short, The Chief stuck it to the fish, and pulled out a nail biter. 

Tip for Winning at Life - Hope is not a Plan
When its 2 AM in the morning and you're dealing with your child that is crying and screaming, remember hope is not a plan.  Standing over the crib, rubbing his or her back, hoping the child will calm down and go back to sleep is just not a viable option.  You've got to have a true plan of action, even though your brain and body is just not functioning all that great in the wee hours of the morning. You've got to go through the list: check for fever, diaper change, try rocking, give 3mL of Mylicon, walking and swaying, and finally making a bottle.  You have to go through your progressions like a quarterback.  Hoping your team catches the Hail Mary in the endzone or your the little man or princess falling back to sleep on his or her own is no plan at all. 

So, how did I do?  Leave me a comment and give me a grade.  Don't grade me too high or the Chairman may be ousted just as the DEMS were in the House.

As the Chairman says, "As Always, I love you guys."
