It has been a long hard battle my fellow Team TSTers. What began in the first week of the season as the first ever NFL Weekly Picks against the point spread (which we won by the way!), culminated with a postseason Fantasy Football challenge.
Guys, we absolutely trashed the competition. After winning the Weekly Picks contest in the final week of the season, we moved into the Fantasy Football challenge against the second, third and fourth place finishers. Ryan, Mike D, Brick Top and Team TST met for a post season Fantasy Football draft. Even though I took DCRamFan's $27.37 bribe to take Drew Brees with the first overall draft pick, things worked out very well indeed. Sergey606, LARams1968 and I picked players during the playoffs and we kicked Ryan Van Bibber and evil hoards butts! We carried a 62.64 point lead into the Super Bowl. Thanks to a low scoring game, we held off the competition to win the championship. Weeping tears of joy, followed by running up and down my street screaming - WE WON!!! - and a short trip to visit the local law enforcement headquarters for a few minutes, I returned to my home to write this historic missive.
I'm not sure what the prize is that Ryan plans to give us, but I'm sure it's something like free airfare, hotel and expenses to the London Rams game for ALL members of TST... or a cookie to be split a few thousand ways... If it's the trip to London, his henchmen have to stay home and fill the comment threads till we get back. Ryan also had a side bet with me. The loser had to pose for a "Delocated" ad. Ryan knew he was going to lose, so he did the ad that we have been seeing on TST's front page for the last few days. Way to honor a bet Ryan! Though you may want to think about boxers, work on the old "six-pack" Abs and hit a tanning salon... 3k bet me "a ka-jillion dollars", so I'm expecting a check any day now.
Have a look at the final results after the break... CONGRATULATIONS TEAM TST!!

I for one welcome our new TST overlords.
Eric Nagel - February 5, 2012
The whole "King Arthur, Camelot" thing comes to mind...
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
In honor of Team TST

Joe Mazzi - February 5, 2012
HOLLALUYAH
EYE TOLD EWE EYE’D WIN IN 1991Eye new Breeze was a gud pic
yur welkum for my expurteese
my
FRENDSsay eye’m tha best!DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
Hey, I had to mention you, right? lol
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
Who knew that making fun of the most hated guy on this site would get some one 9 recs
and the ability to mock him for the rest of his time on TST.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
haha
its really all I’m good for. Let’s hope he keeps comin back…
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
Yeah he's a fucking goldmine for comedy.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
What I laugh at is when he comments and no comments back, he keeps commenting over and over until someone says something
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
Yeah he usually comments on dead threads and spits out his bull shit and leaves before there is any backlash.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
After Betty White won the BWL, how can you be shocked?
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
All Betty White does is win. Like Tebow.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
I like that! Tebow is the Betty White of the NFL... Has a nice ring to it?
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
I disagree
Betty White is way more versatile than Tebow
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
Bad mental image.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
Not so much for me
I remeber her when she was only very old
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
Can you imagine Tebow playing when he's Betty's age? He could do a Snickers commercial in the year 2060
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
I hope I'm not here to see him looking like Betty White
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
for you, kind sir
I’ll stop…
…and I’ll go back [strictly] to what I do best…..identifying spelling/grammar errors. And the end of my swib-mockery starts NOW!
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
I do, however, love
that I go out spelling ‘swirb’ WRONG!
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
I can't tell without strike throughs
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
Eye
wul know longer bee doing tha swirb shit……….eye’m dunDCRamFan - February 5, 2012
Eye dont cnow wye u R stoping.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
That is just terrible English, my friend!
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
BAWHAHAHAHAHA!
Grammar Nazi.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
Who wants to speak English anyway
I’m American
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
I'm going to Disneyland1
But only because my brother-in-law works there and I get in free.
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
You should get VIP treatment now. Just mention the FF win at the gate...
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
Last place :(
Brick Top - February 5, 2012
I honestly thought the 49ers were going to carry you all the way
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
I'll be a force next year
I’m the young team on the rise, lurking in the grass
Brick Top - February 5, 2012
The whole "lawnmower" thing comes to mind... lol
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
I was starting to get scared
Not that the whiners would carry Brick Top but that they would win it all.
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
Did you guys see the photo caption?
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
Yes.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
where the hell is that guy?
I miss his ‘I just got my drivers license, so I’m a bad ass’ attitude
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
He's hanging out on Match.com
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
Do 13 yo girls sign up for that?
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
He tells them he's 32, and a Dot.com billionaire
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
Sugarsons.com
The Billionaire part will probably work no matter the age
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
He tell women he owns "The Kate channel" All Kate, all the time
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
owned by Mark Sanchez
shizah!
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
Well Sanchez bought it out.
but then he wrecked it.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
He does need to broaden his search a little
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
He will. He a good guy, that will learn as he goes
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
Yeah, I don't think he's experiencing anything that us other guys havn't experienced.
I’m still freak out sometimes when I see a girl. It happens. He’ll relax when he gets older and has some practice. Maybe a few conquests under his belt.
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
I think this superbowl prediction was pretty close.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=e-g2ACJjkcE
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
That's a cool video
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
We've gotten off topic....
let’s celebrate this fantasy win……….because in as many leagues as I’m in, and as terribly as I lead Doug with the Brees pick, team TST still held it together. Kudos! I’ll go back to my curling blog now….
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
This was the longest contest ever! Hopefully someone else will pick it up next year
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
haha!
I remember trying to keep up with the pics on the draft. Embarrassing! You guys were in round 6 and I just found a pic of Barry Sanders………who I was sure was our first pick. Boy, was I wrong
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
Curling?
Lame.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
They will ban you from Minnesota for saying that!
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
I never go to Minnesota anyway.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
Great fishing in Minnesota
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
The Brees pick wasn't a bad pick
He’s a scoring machine. The Saints didn’t get fer but they could have.
Oh, and they showed curling in South Carolina once and now its their state sport.
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
Yeah well who cares about south carolina?
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
Bubba does
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
I like you!
haha! I was all about Brees because he, and Graham, wrecked me in my FF finals. Same fate for Rodgers, I suppose…
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
NO had all the look of a SB team when the playoffs started
and Brees and Rogers were the two QBs with the most scoring potential.
LARams1968 - February 5, 2012
Still shock either of those teams weren't playing tonight.
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
it seemed like poetic justice
that the Saints beat the Packers in the NFC championship after that first, very awesome by the way, game of the season
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
We'll be reading tomorrow about the Roman Numeral mistake everyone made on the Super Bowl
Half way through the first quarter they caught the mistake on NBC. The logo I had up before I changed it said XLIV, when it should have said XLVI
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
...and by the way
if I don’t see these ‘Delocated’ ads back up by tomorrow morning, I’m gonna……….something
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
Ryan will appreciate the compliment! lol
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
A show like Delocated needs to be advertised more on this site.
RAMpage28 - February 5, 2012
please send your thoughts to
f’nawesomeads@sbnation.com
….I’ll be sending mine right behind you
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
Yeeeeah... The Ads should be evrywhere. I'm thinking of making it my tag line..
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
the EJD
would be better served if they were in the new beer, completely wired internet, garden
DCRamFan - February 5, 2012
I think the bartenders at the EJD are going with the look for their new uniforms
Douglas M - February 5, 2012
Good afternoon, sir
We’re not robbing you…….the CVC is
DCRamFan - February 6, 2012
Doug, I wasnt even involved in this
And less you forget, my dreams involve eggs XD
King Sam Rules! - February 6, 2012 via mobile
LMAO! We missed you tonight my friend! :-)
Douglas M - February 6, 2012
Sorry, I had stuff (skyrim and homework) to do
King Sam Rules! - February 6, 2012 via mobile
Well people mocked Brady for the whole "pray for Tom" thing
Buy it means that Gisele will get on her knees for him in his time of need, like when he loses the Super Bowl. And I wouldnt mind her on her knees no matter why she’s doing it: http://www.google.com/search?tbm=isch&source=mog&hl=en&gl=us&client=safari&q=gisele%20bundchen&sa=N&biw=320&bih=416#i=66
King Sam Rules! - February 6, 2012 via mobile
Dang it, I hate this thing.
King Sam Rules! - February 6, 2012 via mobile
Yo, by the way
I got into an argument tonight that Isaac Bruce is arguably the best route runner of all time and Torry Holt is a plain ol’ boss, so I had to prove it to myself, and eventually this dumb fan. I came across this gem that I hadn’t seen before.

Joe Mazzi - February 6, 2012
Great Vid! I think they should be #1 though
Douglas M - February 6, 2012
Number one was a Rams team from the 50's
Brick Top - February 6, 2012
god dang I loved those days
