| Jordan Year: Week 2 Review |
My Personal Review Of The Last 7 Days (1/7 - 1/13)
Favorite Quote
"If we are to survive, we must have ideas, vision, and courage. These things
are rarely produced by committees. Everything that matters in our
intellectual and moral life begins with an individual confronting his own
mind and conscience in a room by himself."
-Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr.
Thank Tarik for finding that
Daily Regiment
6 Wins. 1 Loss.
Overall Record: 8-5
Bunch of big things popped and little things stopped this week. I'm really starting to balance this "family and friends vs work" thing. When you write everything down, it shows how proportionate (or disproportionate) your priorities really are. Happy birthday Tracy, Candy, Mel and Monica! Congrads to my big sister on getting married. My friend is recovering quickly from rehab. I even got to have a conversation with my mother and my father together. We took a picture. Only our second picture together in 23 years. The first one I was about 6 months old.
Preparation
In the "What I've Learned" blog, I said that "it’s scary how one bad decision can last the rest of your life". Tony Romo is that quote personified. He was in Cabo instead of studying game film and made no excuses about it. Now a guy who's making $11 million annually, going to the pro bowl and dating a superstar singer will be remembered this off season (and until he wins a playoff game) as a choker. Moral of the story? Go to Cabo AFTER you win.
So for the next 32 days, there will be no drinking or partying for me. Got some big plans that I need to prepare for. All the holidays and birthdays are out the way. No Romo here.
Fantasy Basketball
I know I promised not to check it until today, but I couldn't help myself. I'm addicted. And it's gotten to the point where I Can Make You Second and Ralph don't even write me back. They're losing that bad. It's no fun when the rabbit has a gun, is it?

Another slaughter 2night. I'm going to continue helping you guys until somebody cuts the lead under 400 points. Let's start with trading the following people 2night:
CJ Miles - I don't care if he's starting. He sucks. And worse, his name is CJ. What is he 12?
Sebastian Telfair - For the love of god! Why do you guys refuse to trade him? Do you need him to get another gun charge before you make a move?
Francisco Garcia - What's up with Ralph picking these wack players with gay ass names? Francisco? Sebastian? CJ? Jamario? I see a trend
Jamario Moon - Hahahahahahaha! Bought em to make $ and backfired like crazy
Bonzi Wells - How do you pick up a Tracy Mcgrady replacement who doesn't even start?!
James Jones - This makes as much sense as the Knicks picking Fredrick Weis a few years back. The Blazers barely even play!
Yi Jianlian - See Jamario

Subject: The Excuse
"If I spent the same amount of time on fantasy basketball, I'd be #1 too"
That's the excuse that gets you to sleep at night. Truth is, if both of you quit your job, moved to West Virginia with Phil Jackson and only League Pass, ESPN and a MacBook to work on Fantasy Basketball 18 hours a day, I'd still be #1.
Because I'm just better. I'm the iPod, you're the Zune. I'm Goldman Sachs, you're Citigroup. I'm a blackberry, you're a sidekick. I'm the Giants, you're the Cowboys. I'm Godfather 1 + 2, you're Godfather 3. I'm Esquire, you're Details.
Enjoy the Miami sun, stay far away from your mac.com account and pick up a new hobby. Just send in your SportingNews passwords and these emails will stop
Ralph you have a lot going for you. New job, marriage on the horizon. You don't need this time waster. You should try fantasy boxing
