I’ve got enough for a second league. Those lucky participants are:

**Mullinator** , mcott\*\*, **bordelond** , **John Corrado** , and **iampunha**. Look for an e-mail in your inbox soon!

Thanks, **MsRobyn** … I have joined up!

I have been reading up on the Fantasy TeeVee rules this morning … the game is much more complicated than I thought. I like the extra scoring for Quirks of a given TV show.

Heh heh heh, **Jelaza**! (What’s your username here, BTW?) All that last minute tinkering and you got **ZERO** points.

So what if **MsRobyn** got almost twice as many points as I did – I won the night and she didn’t.

(How’m I doing on the trash-talking? That’s part of the game, right? I’m so new to all of this… 😃 )

Nyah nyah nyah!

We’re going to play another season after this one, right? Careful perusal of the [score board](http://www.fantasyteevee.com/myftv.php?lid=602753&n=1) shows that though I’m third in points, I’m dead freaking last in nights. :mad:

I totally effed up the draft and know already I’m going to want a rematch…

I’m Jelaza on there. I was looking for someone, _anyone_, who would be onair on Sunday. I started out with a bunch of Sunday night Fox stuff, which was worthless.

But I’m not doing too bad, now. 😃

Yeah, the lack of ANYTHING on Fox is wreaking some serious havoc with the play.

Yet more proof that Fox is Evil.

What’s even worse is, the only Sunday night guy that’s onair (this Chris Perry guy) isn’t getting any points! _grrrrr_

But I suppose I can live with losing Sunday every week, considering. 😃

Grrr. As I said, I already know I want a rematch.

Why aren’t last night’s stats posted yet?

Woo hoo! I have finally won a week!

**does geeky TV Fantasy League celebratory dance**

And I realize that points don’t count (dagnabbit), but I’m up there with juggernauts **rubystreak** and **Jelaza** on total points. Only look at my total for the current week if you’re wearing sunglasses. Hee!

Argh! They haven’t posted the stats for last night! (Apparently the volunteers are being dilatory this morning.)

Am I the only one chewing my nails?
