I did better research this time, so I know that Adam already wrote about the MLB season approaching, and his fantasy league. But that's what's on my mind, too. No March Madness bracket this year for me. I didn't get any cool Basketball Madness Giveaways. I watched 0 college basketball games this year. I have, however, watched some spring training baseball. I'm gearing up for the season.
I'm sure I'll look back on this in a few months and shake my head, but the Mets are going to make the playoffs this year! Here's what we need: Reyes back soon.. Beltran back in May.. and good seasons from 2 of Pelfrey / Maine / Perez. Three positive things - not too much to ask for! Add those to Santana, Wright, Bay, and Rodriguez, and the Mets should compete. After the last few years, I'll be happy with getting to the playoffs. Once there, anything can happen.
I'm also gearing up for my fantasy league. Last year, I ran away with the regular season title. Nobody came within 10 games of me in the last 2 months of the season. I met a buzz saw in the finals (led by Kung Fu Panda's two triples in the final two weeks.. come on!) and lost the crown.
I really could've used promotional stress relievers on the 2nd to last day of the fantasy playoffs. I was frustrated because, on this day, I saw the owner of 'Lord Helmet' and knew that I had no chance of coming back. Here's what he looked like:
Yes, the owner of 'Lord Helmet' showed up wearing a helmet... TO MY WEDDING! Come on! Who does that? Looking back, it was pretty funny. But I will have my revenge this year!
