Transactions for Week 15

Sadness is in store for Upstate New York, as the only Buffalo Bill on an active roster in America's premier fantasy football league has now been released.

The Dragons waive K Rian Lindell (Buffalo) and acquire K Morten Andersen (Atlanta)
The Dragons waive the New York Giants defense and acquire the St. Louis Rams defense.

We, here at the league office, just figured out how to spell Lindell's (rather sissy) first name, after taking a couple of weeks to figure out which team representing New York state that he actually played for, and now he's gone. We feel like we barely knew ye, Rian. On the bright side, The Dragons have given the AARP of Scandanavia a reason to pay attention to the PPFFL by acquiring the ageless kicker from Denmark. I'm working on getting some lucrative advertising on this site targeting retired folk living just below the Arctic Circle. Short of that, I will definitely try to set up a "Sister Fantasy Football League" partnership with a league currently operating in either Sweden, Norway, Finland, or Denmark. I will keep everyone posted on what happens. Keep checking in regularly, because I expect this to happen quickly, affording to our cosmoplitan image and our popularity out there on the World Wide Web.

And, yes, that was another shot at the truly inept Sacramento City Council and County Board of Supervisors....the people that enthusiastically proclaimed last week that they will have Light Rail lines out to Sacramento International Airport by the year 2027. That's right, roughly 6 miles of Light Rail track will be completely installed and operational in only 21 years! Maybe that's when they expect the number of Sacramento area residents who actually ride Light Rail to rise above the current level of .00000000135%.

To put this monumental Light Rail project into proper perspective, Chinese immigrants, who lived in slave-type conditions and were lucky to eat once per day, were able to lay over 600 miles of railroad track over undeveloped wilderness and some of the most treacherous mountain passes in North America......in just under 2 years.

No truth to the rumor that Sacramento's new motto will soon be: "We'll get to it when we get to it...But it's going to cost you."
