Fantasy football help

Looking for some help on my Fantasy football draft on Friday night. I love the game and watch it every week but don't know much about the players. Any suggestions would be great. Just give me your top players for each position and what team they are on. I only lose $5 if I don't win and only gain like $40 or $50 if I win. Next year I would like to up the $ but I just want to get a feel for it all.

News???

I can't stand to watch the news these days. I have next to no tolerance for idiots that don't deserve 30 minutes of my day to give me 2 minutes of valuable information. The Internet is where I get my news. I get better, and more information, in less time then I ever would watching the idiots on my local news stations. I think that one day the 5, 6 and 10 o'clock news will be as popular as the news paper is today. Some people will still watch it. Most will not be retired, and enjoy getting better news, faster.

Then why bother.

I have a very hard time understanding people that don't have passion or drive to be the best. In every job, I have ever had, I have always tried to do my best and be an outstanding employee. That's just how I operate. I have always taken ownership of what I do, and want to be the best at whatever I do. If I didn't try my best, I don't know why I would bother. A half ass job is not an option in my world.

Almost everyday I see a person working hard at hardly working. If they used the effort they put into not working, to work, they would be really good employees. Instead they are that guy. You know the guy that some how always gets out of things. You know every excuse he has is BS and he is just working the system.

I'm not saying I work with people like this, I'm just saying I see it almost every day.

I wish I could pause my life.

There is never enough time in the day. In my new job I have traded exhaustion for more sleep, but it has taken time out of my day. I get to sleep in now but I work much later. I get home, blink, and my day is over. I have cut back on things like my time on the computer to make sure I spend the same amount of time with my family. This has led to the blog suffering and not having a lot of posts. Sorry for the lack of updates but I have to priorities. I'm going to make it a ritual to blog at least 2 times a week. It might be on Saturday and Sunday but I figure that's better then I have been doing.

The Abs Diet update

The diet has been going great. It's not too hard and I have been doing pretty good at it so far. The one major thing about the diet is the results I have gotten after 2 weeks. After 2 weeks I'm down to 207 pounds from 213 and a BF% of 31.8%. That is down from 37.5% and so that is very good. The diet is not about working out really hard or anything like that. It is just about know what is in, what goes into your mouth. Staying away from the crap the body shouldn't have in it. I feel better and look better then I have in a very long time. I'm starting to learn the difference between being skinny and being health. If you are skinny it doesn't mean you are health.

I have also learned that everybody not just the fast food industry is trying to kill us from the inside. Get educated and start to read labels. It will scare the crap out of you.

Quick week

I'm coming to the conclusion that when you work longer hours, your week goes by very quickly. The new job is taking some adjusting and learning. Hoping not to work 12 and 15 hour days next week. It has not only taken a toll on me but the family is not a fan either.

The BB curve

My fat fingers have been trying to use my new Blackberry Curve. I have always updated my twitter by text with my enV with a very large keyboard. The new curve has much smaller buttons and I have been sending out some posts that have been a little confusing. I'm sure I will get used to it but please bear with me and my learning curve.

The Abs Diet

The wife was reading a book on our vacation called the Abs Diet. It is more of a meal plan then a diet. You have to plan ahead everyday and eat good food the right way. We will be starting the diet today and I will notify you of my weekly progress over the next week.

My weight is 213 and my BF% is 37.5%. This is all bad

My goal weight is 190 and to have a BF% around 25% so I have some work to do.

My mental muscles

Tomorrow I will be starting a new position that will involve me learning how to work more with my brain then my back. The new position will involve little physical effort, but lots of mental work. I'm not sure how I will adjust but I will keep you updated. I have learned in the past that physical work, is much easier then mental work. I will be flexing my mental muscles, and I think they might be pretty weak.

New position come Monday

I have been promoted to the sales department at my work. I will be running sales routes of salesman that are on vacation. The new job has some perks like a blackberry and a company vehicle that I get to take home. I didn't technically receive a pay raise, but $4o less a week in gas will be nice. Not to mention oil changes and wear and tear on my Jeep. I will be giving updates over the next couple of weeks on how it is going.

PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ AND VOTE!!!

Please take one minute of your time to vote for this dog. http://www.brickfish.com/Pages/PhotosAlbums/PhotoView.aspx?qsi=16078937

If they win the contest that will pay for the dogs food for the remainder of it's life.

The dog goes with people to court (mostly young kids) when they have to testify. The court has another dog named sam. They have so many requests they needed another.

A story about an 8 year old girl that had to testify against her rapist and long story short she wasn't handling it very well until she met sam (the dog) who got to go with her. She went from clinging to every fixed object in the court house begging not to go in the room to pointing at the guy saying he did it! It has made a big impact.

All of the dogs are rescued from a shelter as well.

Netflix

This weekend we finally decided to sign up for netflix's and it is awesome. We spent the weekend watching movies on our laptop. We watch 3 movies and my daughters watch 4 shows. Netflix's is totally worth the money and I can't believe it took me so long to decide to sign up. Many people have tried to get me to sign up and I was always resistant for some reason. Just wanted to let you all know that if you don't have it you are missing out.

Another Social Website

So I have joined a new social website and I'm not sure how I feel about it yet. It was cool tonight linking myself to my friends and family, but will it last? I only have a Myspace account to spy on my little sister and cousin. I don't see them very often but I like to make sure they are not getting into to trouble. My guess is that the fun of Facebook will just go away like Myspace did. I have the blog and Twitter to inform people about me.

So what do you like best to communicate with friends and family?

Myspace?

Facebook?

Twitter?

Blogger?

Instant Messenger?

Email?

Telephone?

US Postal Service?

I use all of them.

My girl

I have the most amazing wife!!! She is also the glue that keeps me, our family, and our house together. I never thought I would ever be able to find such an amazing women to spend my life with. She hard working, strong, loyal, loving, understanding, and extremely sexy. I could never be the man I' am today without her. The amazingly deep feelings I feel for my wife could never be put into words.

Kristina I love you. I hope that all the grief my offspring and I cause you, you understand how much we love you. Have a safe trip home and I can't wait to see you tomorrow.

Queit home

I came home on Sunday night and left my family back in California until Thursday. The quiet, lonely night makes it actually hard to sleep. I thought it would be great, going to bed early and getting some good rest. Every night, I'm really tired but just can't fall asleep. I miss my girls and can't wait to have the noise back on Thursday night so I can get a good nights sleep.
