I don't really pay attention to baseball, but who could ignore the Tiger's end-of-the-season collapse or their superb performance in the playoffs. Grampa B's interest sparked the same in Elliot, so we watched the games Friday and Saturday. I actually thought about trying to get World Series tickets. It would be fun but cold.

Tralfaz finally got back on track this week and evened our record at 3-3. Shockey, Steve Smith, and others came through big time and helped me upset the fantasy sports juggernaut that is GKB despite LT's amazing fantasy performance (GKB could have defeated me had he foreseen his optimum line-up...I had my optimum line-up by default because all of my bench players were either inactive, on a bye week, or facing the Chicago Bears defense on Monday night). Thankfully, I've already got my whipping by Woo Pig! (the elite of the Blogger Bowl league), but next week I get H-Town Hawgmollies who may be 5 and 1 by then. Elliot enjoys keeping track of the the fantasy results (yes, I paid for StatTracker). Today he said he wants a team of his own next year. And, of course, we thoroughly enjoyed the change in fortune for the Steelers this week, especially when viewed in HD at Grampa B's house!

The Kickin' Chickens increased their win streak to 3 games today with a 5-2 victory. Elliot had 3 goals and narrowly missed 6 or 7 others. I'm pretty proud of him. In six games he's gone from someone who has never played soccer before to one of the best (or sometimes the best) players all on the field...and he seems to really enjoy it.
