Red-haired Neanderthals? Possibly, scientists say


Well this answers two questions. First, it explains the evilness of Ginger Kids/People and why they have no soul. Second, it explains why red headed step children have been beaten since the dawn of man.

This is Awesome

Can I get a YEAH, YEAH!

Turkey to vote on Iraq incursion



If the US leaves Iraq completely and civil war and genocide takes place, what would be the difference in sitting on the sideline doing nothing for Iraq and sitting on the sideline doing nothing for Darfur?

BIG PIMPIN'

Well, I've been busy with research, but I have still found time to make most of my Fantasy Baseball teams awesome.

Total Number of Teams: 7
Total Number of Teams where I was present for the draft: 5
Teams I drafted in First Place: 3 (Another team drafted is in 4th of 14 and that league has the most retarted scoring system ever)
Non-drafted: 2nd of 10 and 6th (soon will be moving up) of 12

My sole blackeye is the team I drafted in an AL only league. What the fuck was I thinking? I completely blew the draft; it is incredible. I thouhgt I could draft guys later than I could because there were so many who missed the draft. As a result, I am comfortably in 8th place out of 10. The best part is that there are no decent free agents, and the "Big Name" players I could trade 2 for 1 are sucking. GREAT!

F-ing Injuries

Well, I finished second in my Yahoo fantasy basketball league, due largely to a string of injuries. I lost 3 categories to 6 with the closest lost being rebounds by 3. Considering that Lebron missed 3 games, Gerald Wallace missed 2 and Ricky Davis missed 5, I think having any of them completely healthy would have made up the difference. The most disappointing part though was that I lost 3-pointer by 9, only hitting 35 in a week and a half of games. The prior week/game totals for my team were 46, 43, 46, 52, and 43. So, to only make 35 in 10 days was pretty BS. So, 3 more rebounds (for a tie) and a normal performance for 3-pters would have tied the total at 4 wins 4 loses and 1 tie. I held the tie breaker (points scored during the period). Oh well.

As for fantasy baseball advice here's one hot player.

Kevin Youkilis 1B/3B- .354 1 HR, 10 RBI, 9R, 0 SB
This guy has two position elligibilty, hits at the top of the Boston order, and has a .448 OBP. He is going to help average and runs for sure. His RBI totals are impressive for a leadoff spot.

I am the Champion

With three out of four championships in fantasy basketball complete, I am the champion in all 3. The Chem Eng Grad League 2 Week championship came to an end with my team winning 6 categories, 2nd in 2 categories, and last in 1 (turnovers). It may have been closer if Joe's team had not been decimated by injuries in the final week, but then again I had Garnett sit out the last week, too. BOX
