It's July...too early to think about Fantasy Football?

Yeah that's right. The NFL season is still 2 months off, so it may be early to think about fantasy football. Or you could say...it's only 2 short months away, I barely have time to prepare for my fantasy football dominance.

Anyway, I'll be sending out emails about fantasy football soon. I'm going to create a 12-team, 3 division league, with a $50 entry fee this year. You'd be able to trade future draft picks/auction money, so I would expect owners to return year after year. However, I don't envision using keepers.

Oh, I'm also refusing to sign up for a pay site to host this. That's idiotic since there are so many free sites offering all the same options, and the entry money could be better spent distributed as prize money.

I'll be sending the word out soon enough. Please use the comments to let me know:

a) If you'd be interested
b) Any recommendations for websites
c) If there's anybody else who might be willing to participate. Preferably someone local, who isn't very good at this. :)

Calling all local actors!

Destination: Awesometown

Local Beer Blog

This guy has a blog dedicated to beer in Baltimore. Thought some of you might enjoy reading about local brews.

Save the Coconuts

Our buddy from Broadneck High Justin Brill is putting on a show at the Annapolis Summer Garden Theatre to benefit the Save the Coconuts organization. It is a local Annapolis organization that promotes breast cancer awareness and raises funds for research. Apparently Justin's own mother has already had two bouts with the terrible disease. I thought it would be nice if some of us might be interested in going to this special show. It will be held on Wednesday, July 22, 2009, 8:30pm with a reception to follow. The rain date is Monday July 27.

My post seems to be premature. Mrs. Brill actually passed away this past Sunday 6/14. I think the viewings are today 6/18 from 2-4 and 6-8 at Barranco Funeral Home in Severna Park. The funeral service is today 6/19 at 11:30 am.

I stopped by the 2-4 viewing yesterday to give Justin our condolences. He says hello to everyone. He seems to be doing well. Justin is engaged and his fiancee is very nice.

It's a rough town!

You'll laugh. I promise.

Beer Pong

I hope I'm still playing beer pong or flip cup when I'm her age...
