Rd 1 Precott, not sure it was a knockdown

Ah crap, I didn't realise that we couldn't pick up players before the game. I didn't get to draft any defensive players so I won't get to start any this week! Easy win for O'Neill week 1...

I hope that they dont throw some hasbeen / neverwas in against Carl to save the bill. PMcC is damaged goods ie world title contender so the promoters are clutching at straws - Frampton v Martinez was the attraction... :-[

Only fight worth watching on the 17th is Mayweather vs Ortiz, nobody does pre-fight build up shows like HBO and their 24/7 series.

Mayweather vs Ortiz (24/7) - Episode 1 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtJHdSfY8sM

Mayweather vs Ortiz (24/7) - Episode 2 - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjEM0GiTUJM


Thanks for reminding me Atticus, 24/7 is an unreal show - can't wait to get home from work and watch it!

Can't say I'm as clued up as some of you guys but I'm a Jets man. What's the craic, wildcard again or potential Division champs?
I think the Jets will have a good season once again. Defence hasn't lost anyone of note, will have Jim Leonard back, Cro will have a second year in the system.
On offence, Sanchez also a year older and improving steadily. Plax is a nice addition. A little worried about Greene and whether he can carry the workload all season, hopefully he can.

Was watching a video on youtube today and as annoyingly happens these days an ad plays before the real video and it was for its4women.ie comes up - advertising insurance for woman only.
Now even though they are probably getting cheaper insurance that men on this site, I couldn't give a fiddlers, what annoys me is that if there was a site advertising insurance for men only, or if there were men-only gyms etc, there would be uproar from women - see the court case over Portmarnock GC.
And can you imagine the uproar if the insurance or the gyms for men were cheaper than those that the women could go to?

That was a good draft though I must say. Good to have everyone online and not just players being picked according to the rankings.

Just over three hours to go until the first draft. Chris Johnson is still holding out but for how long will that last? Ryan Williams the cardinals rookie running back is out for the year as is RB Mikkel Le Shoure of the Lions.
Didn't stop O'Neill picking him up to fill the IR spot!!!

Anything EXCEPT this weekend.  Given a choice, I'd go Sunday, Sept. 4. But, of course, I'm merely a newly formed Junior team yearning for the intoxicating heights of Intermediate status.

OK. How about as follows.


Walter Payton - This Sunday 9pm Irish Time (should be over by 10-10.30)

Jerry Rice - Sunday 28th 9pm.

Joe Montana Superbowl - Sunday September 4th 9.00 pm.

Fine by me anyway.
Me too, Sunday evening is the best time.

OK, It's 12-6 now. 18/30 is a decent quorum, so I'm calling this 'passed'.

I'm proposing that this be the final change, so unless you have anything you really want to get in, that's it.
Sorry i voted against after it was passed (read your post after), I don't feel strongly about it so don't mind my vote.

Is everything ok with the Royal Badgers AZ? don't see you asking me to leave or rejoin any league so haven't done anything....

Was planning on it Iceman, unless people have proposals, which I'll put to demographic vote via a poll here.

As for the draft, I'm going to aim for weekend evenings, Irish Time, if that's okay. Probably a Saturday evening, or maybe a Friday night. How does that sound?
Royal Badgers are in.
Weekend would suit me better also as its blocked in work. I'd say a Sunday evening when everyone is watching the Sunday game would be a good time, people won't have engagements like they might on the Friday or Saturday...

Just to let you all know.

Paul McCloskey's opponent for the 10th of September has been officially confirmed as Bredis Prescott.

Fight will be in the odyssey arena - Carl Frampton will be on the undercard.

Should be a great occasion for the Belfast fight crowd.

That'll be a great night. Tough fight for Dudey though no question.

What about Khan v Judah? I would have thought Judah was great value at 7/2?
