Who: Jay, Broncos Fan

What: Supervisor by day, dad by night. Two boys that keep me moving. Start back to school next month to get my Masters.

Why: Been addicted for the last 10 years, but I don't have a problem because I don't go to meetings for it.

Fantasy Bio: Play in two to three leagues a year with friends. I've used the huddle for the last 5 to 6 years, but have never posted. Thought what the heck, it's about time.

Don't feel bad, the most seasoned of Huddle Veterans still fail miserably at attempted sarcasm. That and subtle hughmor don't fly for some reason 'round these parts.

It's been 7-8 years and Big John has been waitin.......

what: Beer drinkin, pot smokin lineman

 

when: Under the terms of my parole I cannot list such information

 

where: Beautiful downtown Woodstock NY

 

why: To bump nasties with women who like football and send me nekkid pics over the internet. Czar and Bunz are the only 2 exemptions to my rule. They are both quality women and I wish them the best. If they get rid of their husbands, they know where to find me :D... I also enjoy getting banned here so many f'in times that if you add it all up, it would still be longer than some of these "vets". Thanks to the Huddle I have made many innanet friends which has intern led me to join and compete in some of the best FF leagues out there, let alone some of the best porn available. My old buddy Sgt. Ryan keeps duckin me, but that is for another discussion :D Where else could you go to find the likes of gay cabelleros like Bronco Billy, spain, blitz, BR, sarge, TimC and not get f'in infected by a virus !

 

fantasy (bio): To play FF with cdj7k daughters, but again, that is for another time, soon......

4 time BOTH Champ and multi homer league crowns. I still dont know who the f*ck Furd is and could kill BFD for not getting better fresh meat in Hugh or Puddly, even Big John, so the f*cker would go easy on that trigger finger !

 

Happy 4th and F you ALL !!!!! :D

Who: RussMan

What: #1 dad and husband and a damn good financial advisor.

When: Been here since the Huddle's humble beginnings.

Where: Ann Arbor - Saline Michigan.

Why: Big fan of football, and the advent of Fantasy Football took it to a new level.

Fantasy Bio: Entering my 10th year of fantasy football. Our league the Ann Arbor Fantasy Football League has been around for 10 years and includes guys I have known since elmentary school, guys I met in college and a couple of their friends. I am a 3 time CHAMP of our league including a one and only undefeated season.

 

We have a TROPHY that the champ gets a name plate emblazoned upon each year. It's a money league but it 99% about the fun not the cash.

 

A thick skinned, season ticket holding Lions fan that can be also be found hanging out at the LionBacker.com site. If you are a Lions fan having a fantasy football team to fall back on is just what the doctor ordered.

Wow, I just found my old posting in this thread from my original registration with the Hooodle 3 years ago:

:D

 

Looks like fun! loco

 

Who:Otis

 

What: Patent Attorney.

 

When: 27ish? Don't quote me on that, it's all starting to become a blur.

 

Where: New York City.

 

Why: Because its highly addictive.

 

Fantasy Bio: Just became a FOOTBALL fan a year ago, playing fantasy with my buddies was a big reason why I grew to love it so much (was never a big football fan growing up, now I can't get enough!) Played and watched enough other sports that I can see the paralells and am learning the game fairly quickly (though it is admittedly much more complex than I'd thought). Very looking forward to '03.

 

 

 

My how I've grown since...

 

Example:

Who: Otis, NYC bachelor extraordinaire, town drunk, class clown

What: Patent Lawyer

When: Not yet thirty and fighting it hard.

Where: NYC

Why: Why not?

Fantasy Bio: Fantasy for 4 years or so, initially joined the Huddle in 2003, found my way over to a Christian-oriented fantasy football website in between, recently returned to the Huddle.
