Connor Is Awesome

I know what you may be thinking. “Hey, you stole Simmons’ idea!”

Nay.

I came up with this idea before that podcast, and started working out the details with Sean. Soon after, Pat came aboard, and the fantasy league was set. We set up some rules and did a draft and here we are.

If you aren’t a fan of the Challenge, become one. It’s the best hour of the week, hands down.

The prizes have not been decided. But I’m sure we’ll come up with something good.

Here are the team line ups and the rules and point values for all those interested (probably just me, Sean, and Pat.) Continue Reading »

I know what you’re thinking. “Connor lost last week so it’s over.” Trust me, I considered it. But no. It must go on.  But I was at the game and it didn’t schedule the post properly, and I wasn’t able to fix it. So everyone survives another week. You lucky dogs you.

8.04 outta 10. I can live with that score. I bet my bare shoulders would get at least a 9.3 outta 10.  The poor horizontal symmetry and other criticisms do exponentially raise my insecurities, however.

Here is the post you can use to pick your team for the week.  Simply post the team name as a comment to this post. That simple. You can win cool stuff.

NOTE: We had two people ask for admission into the pool for the Monday Night game. I didn’t think that was fair. But then I realized that would fill out the 10 for the shirt. So I decreed that all entries are admitted back. Franco’s pick have never happened.  Also, everyone gets last weeks team back. So it’s like last week never happened.  Sorry for any problems this causes. But hey, maybe you’ll get an awesome t-shirt out of it.

All you people who still checked my blogspot blogs in hopes of finding new material from me, or just to catch up on some of your old favorites, I’ve got some bad news.  connormccormick.blogspot.com, awesomefuckingsports.blogspot.com, awesomefuckingtv.blogspot.com are no more. I deleted them. Not to worry though, I saved all the best posts from them and will post them on CIA as I bring back the Connor Classics. Exciting, no?

Patrick Swayze died.

Best joke I’ve come up with so far.

“Nobody puts Swayze in the coffin.”

Here is the post you can use to pick your team for the week.  Simply post the team name as a comment to this post. That simple. Also, if you haven’t signed up yet, feel free to just enter a team now to enter. You can win cool stuff.
