Fantasy Football 06/07.

It was a nail biting finish till the end. Much like the relegation fight between West Ham, Wigan and Sheffield United. First of all, before I go on to the details of the tight fight between my team and KC-XTT's legendary xtt risky business, a round up on my team's performance this season:

Really nothing to be proud of. Finished at a dismay 96th percentile, 2780 points and overall rank of 7492, 3rd in
UHU League, 4th in Jokers League. This is the 3rd season. A little improvement from the 94th percentile of last season, but far cry from the 98th percentile of the first season.

You may be wondering, such lousy result, whats there to blog about? Well, the exciting thing this season is that my girlfriend joined in the game as well, and the close fight with
KC-XTT's team.

My team vs xtt risky business. First the stats...
Position: me 3rd vs xtt 4th
Points: me 2780 vs xtt 2720.5
# of Team of the Week: me 2 vs xtt 4

Less than 60 points separate our team! xtt climbed from the bottom half of the league in the first half of the season, rapidly to 4th position! That was simply inspiring. Since we stop our little weekly bets, she out-do me every week, closing the gap of more than 300 points. In fact xtt began at disadvantage as she started playing the game only on the 2nd week. So if you deduct away the 141 points I scored in the first week, she'd have overtaken me!

All in all, despite the terrible result, this season was the most fun of the three. I am a far 170 points away from the 2nd
Brian Team and even further 467.5 points away from the 1st Ah Fa's Lousier than lousy FC. Apart from this gap on top, the competition in the mid tables was intense despite most players at the lower half stopped playing mid-way thru the season. heh heh.

My girlfriend also gave a commendable effort of 2314.5 points. She also stopped playing mid-way thru.
Hah hah. But mind you, she doesn't even watch soccer! So she don't really know the players. I think she probably know quite a few now! It's certainly fun to talk about soccer and the players with your girlfriend lorh. =p

Finally, the best buy and favourite player this season has got to be Everton's Mikel Arteta. His value increased 9.64 since the beginning of the season, total of 7 games with more than 20 points performance out of 33 games played.


Other worthy mentioned are BFDB (Blog Favourite David Bentley), Tim Howard, and Favourite Hammer Carlos Tevez who put up hell of a performance in the last few games, too bad I did not have him during his 44-point-week! Of cuz I am really happy that Man Utd won the league title, and Ronaldo was really fantastic too but I only have him for a couple of games which he sucked real bad. Sorry my bad, everyone else had to suffer with me then. Heh. Frank Lampard would have made it to my favourite list too if not for his inconsistent performance in the last few games.

See everyone again next season!

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

If you have it, just flaunt it.

Its such a lousy day, I have decided to blog another entry. Yesh, I am thinking about things other than my last two papers on Thurs and Friday. Something probably talked alot before by many people... What is it with men and women with 可爱-oooii *杨丞琳's voice* face, long tresses, slim legs, curvey body, in revealing tight clothes (only for those with the former characteristics), in pink. Why are men so attracted to those features? The guy is lying if he says he will not turn his head when he sees women with those features. I think it has nothing to do with men being lustful or anything disgusting. It probably has something to do with the genes, the hormones. I don't believe it has to do with things like its men's nature instinct to look for partners who can reproduce blahblahblah. That's so boring! Its something mysterious, something that let men derives pleasure by just looking openly, without doing anything bad or harmful or immoral. Do women ogle at men all the time too

Dreaming About You.

I usually leave my handphone on during the night (just in case if anyone want to contact me urgently, eg. a friend in need of help etc). But I think I will be leaving my phone off from now on. Why? In the wee hours this morning, I received three continuous sms . I forced myself outta bed to read the message, thinking it must be something very important. I surprised to read that they were messages from " Dreamchat ", telling me that " someone is dreaming of me ". Oh great! What a good reason to wake me up! It also asked me to call this 1900 number to listen to the message. There was even a member id at the end... So someone still wide awake in the middle of the night decided to use this wonderful service to let me know he/she is dreaming of me leh. wah seh. I immediately deleted the messages and went back to sleep. Knowing I will just have a few more hours of my six hours daily sleep time left. How did this " Dreamchat " thingy got my handphone number?
