Session Start (AIM - JSpitzberg:Neal J Thurman): Mon Sep 27 07:19:53 2004
JSpitzberg: one of these days i'm going to get 11 men on the pitch
JSpitzberg: then watch out!
Neal J Thurman: Yeah, I still haven't had time to figure out what happened to JayJay
JSpitzberg: groin
JSpitzberg: saw that somewhere
Neal J Thurman: No one seemed very surprised at the top of the broadcast
JSpitzberg: bastards
Neal J Thurman: but I didn't see it anywhere pre-match
Neal J Thurman: they do suck
Neal J Thurman: Killed me that it allowed Jon to win the week
Neal J Thurman: Just about anyone would have put me past him (and certainly anyone who played would have gotten you ahead of him)
JSpitzberg: yeah.
JSpitzberg: he's won 2 weeks out of 3 since he's been back in town
Neal J Thurman: Only real outcome of the week was gaining ground on Toby and putting a little more distance between me and Mike
Neal J Thurman: Otherwise, everyone was pretty solidly in the 90s
JSpitzberg: we all have the same core squad
JSpitzberg: how does henry fall $15?
JSpitzberg: he's the best player in the game
Neal J Thurman: Not sure, especially when Reyes only fell a few $$ after his second straight crap performance
JSpitzberg: who else puts up 15 pts without a goal?
Neal J Thurman: Also not sure how Shearer doesn't go up after his goal - (he's still at $5ish)
JSpitzberg: really?
JSpitzberg: so weird
Neal J Thurman: Yup
JSpitzberg: liv@che this weekend
JSpitzberg: could be a good one
JSpitzberg: or could be REALLY boring
Neal J Thurman: I'm guessing the latter
JSpitzberg: ;-)
Neal J Thurman: Chelsea seems incapable of playing attractive football (although Duffman helped some this weekend)
JSpitzberg: duff duff duff
Neal J Thurman: If he and Drogba ever get some mojo together, they'll be tough
JSpitzberg: pal@villa didn't work out according to the script
JSpitzberg: though sorenson did ok
Neal J Thurman: yeah, I was psyched, I thought I was going to get punnished for that decision when he neither won nor got the clean sheet
JSpitzberg: and in what alternate universe is nicky butt a $17 middie?
JSpitzberg: they need the week by week chart for the players
Neal J Thurman: Someone better send him the clipping that lets him know for posterity that he was deemed more valuable than Henry for at least one week
JSpitzberg: even nicky butt jr. doesn' t have him on his team
Neal J Thurman: lol
Neal J Thurman: In my early thinking, I'm liking Anelka vs. S'hampton as my Reyes replacement (unless, of course, Arsenal gets its mojo back vs. Rosenborg tomorrow0
JSpitzberg: stop stealing my moves
Neal J Thurman: lol
JSpitzberg: henry, elk, rvn up top at the moment
Neal J Thurman: I've still got Shearer w/ Henry and Anelka but was thinking about Ruud as well
Neal J Thurman: Put Giggs in for Nobby
Neal J Thurman: And your boy Watson for Mellberg
JSpitzberg: playing by the rules now
Neal J Thurman: Yup
JSpitzberg: i grabbed gravesen and okocha for solano and ...
JSpitzberg: oh, okocha
JSpitzberg: ha!
JSpitzberg: lampard with the henry-like ability to get pts from nothing
JSpitzberg: not convinced about either of those middies though
Neal J Thurman: BTW, think one of those wacko Boro fans are going to kill someone in the league office for scheduling them home to Chelsea and then away to ManYoo in consecutive weeks?
JSpitzberg: star-crossed with me
JSpitzberg: no worse than the promoted teams' schedules
Neal J Thurman: I was very un-inspired by the midfield choices for the week.
JSpitzberg: lampard the only sure thing these days
JSpitzberg: koumas' team stinks
Neal J Thurman: Lampard is a gimme but other than that I'm not wild about the matchups. Newbies are at home to decent, but not great, teams. No idea what to think of Arsenal
JSpitzberg: and too many will they/won't they play like robert and gravesen
Neal J Thurman: Yup (although according to Soccernet, Robert got robbed of an assist by Yahoo)
JSpitzberg: may be a good week for pires if he's healthy
Yes, yes...I know exactly how you feel.
