Eating Crow, Cupito is an idiot, and starting lineup.


As I eat my last few bites of crow over comments made last week over a victory I had been assured of by my starting QB Bryan "Joe Willie Namath" Cupito, I must ponder the future of my Fighting Farmers. A few questions I've asked myself recently are: Can I realistically compete for the remainder of the season for the BTFFL championship? What kind of shake of does my roster need in order to compete if I do stand a chance of making it into the Blue Ox Bowl? Was my draft that bad? Should I not worry about this season and pull an Andy this early (start trading all my players of value for draft picks)? Or, should I sit on what I have, keep my core for next season together, while trade a player here or there to teams in contention and slowly build up a few extra picks in next years draft? Then again, I could simply stand pat, hope to pick up a few players, and see what happens over the next few weeks...
No matter what moves I make, this weekend does not look good for the Farmers w/ Sheets and Sutton going against week competition. Another loss is most certainly on the docket pushing me to 1-3 with little chance to regain my footing. Alas, I must still report a weekly line up regardless. If I do have a chance, it's going to be on my quarterbacks. Yuck! Here we go for week 4! Go Farmers!!!

The BTFFL Bottom 10

1. Temple (the worst team I have EVER seen....really. They are sooo bad!)
2. Illinois Fantasy Players - All of them! (I didn't think it was possible, but they're worse than last year. Juice, Brasic, Mendenhall, Pierre Thomas....all wasted)
3. Whining Oklahoma (Shut the hell up! Oh my God! You got screwed by the officials, no shit. It happens to teams all the time, but no one complains about it like Oklahoma. They're threatening not to play any PAC-10 teams ever again!? " Maybe the Gophers shouldn't play Big Ten teams anymore because of bad officiating in the conference. "We're never playing football again unless you give us the National Championship. I just can't stand it! Ahhhhh!)
4. Indiana Running Backs (Wow! Sears, Thigpen, McCray....what a bunch of slugs. I apologize if you have 2 of these players on your roster....ha!)
5. Ernie Wheelwright
(Fell off the face of the earth. Is he the #3 receiver now? Wow!)
6. Chris Wells (Been a big dissappointment so far. Showed promise in game 1, but it's been the Tony Pittman show ever since.)
7. E. J. Jones (Was the starting back in game 1, then......hasn't seen the field since. Did he break his leg or something...wierd.)
8. Austin Scott (Who is he? Is he still on the team? Why is he still on a roster?)

9. Mike Kafka (Can't complete a pass or run an offense at all. I think he's fading away)
10. Jordan Norwood (Became a ghost last week vs. Youngstown State. I hope this isn't a sign of things to come.)
