We did last year. It was incredibly lame. (At least, my league was pretty pathetic in terms of smack talk.)
I’d say they overachieve on the smack talking side to make up for their lack of experience with the fantasy football side… but we were just terrible underachievers.
I’m Wasinger Prime (WASI), owner of the Badass Unicorns. Prime because I existed prior to any other Wasingers in the league (as far as I know at least).
@joelmw hello. I am @asgriffin. Alternatively known as @mehcus wife. And that’s probably my biggest claim to fame. Also, everyone prepare for the spanking I’m about to deliver to you this season.
@joelmw Hello! I’m @becca. Despite not being much of a GoT fan (I mean, I watch it) I am A Team Has No Name (NN). In my main league (not that y’all aren’t important) I’m Valyrian Steelers so I figured I’d stick with the theme. Also (also) I’m evidently a big fan of parentheses.
@joelmw Hey there. I am @bruceoite, owner, manager, and sole proprietor of the team known as “Lucky TDs” (OITE). I look forward to showering in all of your tears.
@joelmw I’m Bawlmer JML326. If you didn’t figure out who i am before… get your eyes checked. I took a year off from Meh Fantasy fooseball but I am back to claim my top prize. @f00l go hopkins?
@f00l Two of great (and insufficiently despised) sins:
The grotesque bastardization of Elizabethan English by amateurs trying to sound King Jamesy biblical or epic or highfalutin or what the fuck ever by dropping an “eth” at the end of a word. The gif’s usage is utterly incorrect and grates on my nerves like nails on a chalkboard. At least your image didn’t throw the suffix on a noun or on multiple consecutive words. That would have been even worse. Still, obviously wrong. And annoying.
The second is like unto it. Idiots who don’t understand meter–usually at all–and who toss out incoherent shit that sort of sometimes rhymes but not only doesn’t have feet of the sort Seuss used but isn’t metrically sound to begin with and call it Seussical.
Don’t do both or I might have to literally kill you.
@asgriffin You may think you gain our sympathy because you’re married to @MEHcus (and you do), but that won’t stop me from ending your delusions of adequacy.
I don’t know that I’ve got everyone’s name, btw. I just grabbed from a comment by @hollboll. I guess she should be the one to set me straight if I’m wrong, but anyone else who knows better should chime in.
@jml326
I might have known a hookins once. Strictly drive-by association, from their perspective. They are always into disowning due to extreme embarrassment. Assholes. Why dey gotta be like dat?
@joelmw
Oh, I’m impressed! You know how to offer pure pleasure, doncha, MR English Professor?
You have just handed me a most excellent Friday.
Please please please come over and try to kill me, Elizabethan-expert! We all need some entertainment now and then. Please please please. Meet me in a state that is (obviously) traditionally illiterate and Proud Of It!
(open carry state, be prepped, ok?)
I was hoping for something else w that giphy, but what came up was so awesome, I had to let it be.
Guess what? This will shock you, so do be prepared!
I know nothing-eth about pretty much Elizabethan-eth anything-eth and am completely ignorant-eth regarding rhyme-eth, rhythm-eth, and-eth meter-eth.
I know that statement is so very hard to believe. Just take it on faith. I know I can convince you in the end-eth.
Let’s see here. Must tink.
I tinks, I tinks, Precious!
I think that-eth I will-eth never C
A football-eth stuck in a tree.
In fact, when-eth the footballs fall
You team-eth will never catch the ball.
Any tree-eth that caught two footballs two
Will drop-eth all-eth straight-eth down on you!
@joelmw Like your poem FOOL-eth… Anyway, hi, I’m Liz, owner of Team Comet…though I’m thinking about changing my name to Team Kanye cuz Imma let you finish…behind me! (And yes, I know how very lame that was. If it helps, I’m disappointed in myself for writing it.) This is my first year in the Meh league and 3rd year in FF. Torn today because if my team does well here, I’m going to get clobbered in my other league by my ever critiquing bro.
I’m your son-in-law which means I’m married to your daughter @christinewas. My team is Intermediate Fun which is what I plan to have. If you have looked at my team then you know the mediocre prize is mine!
@f00l There will be much talking of trash when we make the annual pilgrimage (ha) from the ridiculous (TX) to the sublime (CO) for the and and whatnot.
Or maybe not. @bfb62185 and I aren’t so much the trash talkers, at least with each other. But maybe this will open a new layer in our relationship.
Happy, now, seeing-eth me consumed with-eth luser agony-eth?
“But soft-eth (Charmin), what-eth light through yonder-eth window (windur in Texas-speak) breaks-eth-eth? It is the east, and MEH HQ is-eth the Sun-eth-eth-eth.”
Weren’t you gonna come execute me for language and historical-language abuse? Well? Tick Tock-eth.
Just warming-eth up here-eth. Yeats? Keats? Oh gosh-eth, pure sweetness.
You people might know more about football and players and rules and unimportant stuff like that, but we know more insults, you doody heads.
I am the best at playing fantasy sports ball!
@smigit2002 Last year’s playoffs would suggest otherwise.
(Aww… look at us. We’re already doing a better job of this.)
@christinewas You can’t bring up historical facts while I boast baselessly! That’s how a loser would fight
Looking forward to the rematch!
@smigit2002 Oops. Sometimes I forget that others have to boast baselessly.
@christinewas
only a loser would forget that
We did last year. It was incredibly lame. (At least, my league was pretty pathetic in terms of smack talk.)
I’d say they overachieve on the smack talking side to make up for their lack of experience with the fantasy football side… but we were just terrible underachievers.
now that i have such a brilliant autodraft, someone wake me up and tell me the league rules.
Is that thumbnail photo @joelmw by any chance?
@sammydog01 It is.

Nice pun though, right?
/giphy it’s the little things
@Rosstafari I’m talking to you (I think).
@joelmw Yeah, I uh… sorry… I’m… three kids… no sleep… behind on the forums. And trash talk.
Nice win?
@Rosstafari No apology necessary. You can lose to me any time. And, yeah, I’m pretty sure it was luck.
Roll Call!
'Cause I don’t know who some of you are. Others are painfully obvious, but you should announce yourselves anyway.

@joelmw I haven’t changed my team name just yet, trying to think of something punny. @dalek’s team is Doesyourface ComeInMens.
I’m your son-in-law which means I’m married to your daughter @christinewas. My team is Intermediate Fun which is what I plan to have. If you have looked at my team then you know the mediocre prize is mine!

Well then we are depending on you to talk w jmw f2f.

@everyone
My Team sux. Horribly, painfully.
Everyone who won this week is a hideous asshole.

Special for @joelmw and the Literacy Police:
My Team-eth Suck-eth.

Some sick fuck’s team doth beateth my team this weekend.
Ok, all I need is, say, 40 more points from D Bryant tonite and I’m good.
3rd quarter. Plenty of time.
I kinda wanna talk trash, but I’m afraid I’ll jinx myself.
My lineup this week was super tough. Literally 1/2 my team is out. Managed to do well enough!
Win win win
/giphy tigger
So far so good in both leagues!
Well let me add some trash talk now. Both intermediate leagues are mine
/giphy high step
Thanks for not standing in my way players in meh intermediate league I steam rolled most of you sucker
Thanks to meh intermediate league #1 for putting up a strong fight.
Cleveland 1998 Browns you had my number all year. I just had more left in the tank for the finals.
For all the rest of you suckers hope to see you next year, unless I’m forced into the advanced league.
