I hate fantasy baseball. You want to know why? I’m the most unlucky son of a bitch alive. Don’t believe me? Look above you imbecile! I’ve managed to score the third most points in our league this year, and am only a few substitutions away from scoring the most. My understanding is, that in fantasy baseball, one is supposed to score as many points as possible and, by the looks of it, I’m doing quite well. One problem though, I’M FREAKING UNLUCKY!

Am I bitter? Yes. Am I desperate? You bet.

Now, before you go off on how unlucky the Dynamite are, let me be clear about something: I don’t care. Screw him and his terrible name. I’M unlucky and that’s all I care about. If they Dynamite wants to claim something, he can write his own post. Until then, I AM the MOST unlucky team in this freaking league. I don’t care if facts are getting in the way of that. As Stephen Colbert would say, facts come from the gut, and my gut tells me I’m freaking unlucky. And hungry.

News and Notes:

Remember that one time, at the draft, when I said Cliff Lee sucked and wouldn't do anything this year? Yeah, I retract that statement.
