It's Football Time in the Bluegrass

After a spanking by the Cards, the Cats seemed to have bounced back a little, albeit against a lowly D2 opponent.  Hopes are high as Ole Miss comes into town next weekend.  I'm going to go ahead and call it a win, which I rarely do, but I have a good feeling about this one.  Rich Brooks and his team has something to prove, and Ole Miss is definitely beatable.

Hopefully the Bengals will be a force this year.  They went out of the playoffs on such a bad note, but ole golden boy Carson Palmer seems to be back in full force.  They didn't really lose many players, so I see no reason why they shouldn't at least make the playoffs again.  They got off on the right foot by winning their season opening against a dangerous Kansas City.  WHO DEY?!

For all those interested, here is my fantasy football team.  I got first pick in our draft this year.  I present the 2006 LexVegas UFIAs.

QB - Tom Brady
QB - Rex Grossman
RB - Shaun Alexander
RB - Chester Taylor
WR - Randy Moss 
WR - T.J. Houshmandzadeh
WR - Andre Johnson
WR - Ernest Wilford
WR - Chad Jackson
TE - L.J. Smith
K - Adam Vinatieri
K - Jeff Reed
D/ST - Seattle Seahawks
D/ST - Washington Redskins

Unfortunately it looks like I'm losing both Domanick Davis and Jerramy Stevens to injury.  I've already got my eye on replacements, so I'll post them here once it's official.  It just depends on how that damn waiver thing works out.  Looks like I'm going to squeek by this week with a win, even though I ended up leaving Housh playing while he's out with a bad heel.  Suck it up T.J.!  I need Randy Moss to get me at least three points, so we'll see what happens.

BREAKING NEWS: According to wikipedia

"It is reported that for the upcoming 2006 season, the Cincinnati Bengals plan on adding additional mascots: The "Who-dettes." The Who-dettes will be a group of twelve female "little people" dressed as Bengal Tigers and will be on the sidelines during the game shooting hot dogs and t-shirts into the stands."

Read it yourself here.  Midgets shooting hot dogs?  Shocking.  I can't wait to see that.
