New Guy

Well, we definately have one new recruit from the swan nation this year. TheShore just signed up. He's old and well, he's old, but he's my father so I figured I would give him a pass. I might have one or two other losers this year too, but we will see.

Give this guy a hard time just because he is a FREAKIN' ROOKIE!

By the way, what happened to that tag line for the rookies?

reply to my email and I will send the chips. I lost the address. Just like every year!

Nice...More Rookie Blood!!!

The Shore, has a great ring to it, why didnt I think of the that, I could have been The Sea, Blue Waters, Hurricane Johnny,

Welcome aboard there Mr Shore

My son underrates my abilities....I am in this to win...and I am not THAT old!!!!

I saw the SB picks before I saw this thread. I didn't know what to think.

Your son sucks at this, so it would be natural to assume the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.

However, a bird told me you dive, so your stock value just jumped incredibly.


{note to esteemed BC'ers: Isn't it refreshing to see the cockiness of these freakin' rookies?}

I think we can reasonably expect "The Shore" to experience several critical ebb tides this season. Freakin' rookie. And I'm older than dirt so I can say that!

Welcome aboard Shore ... I hope you are older than 57 so I'm not one of the only old farts in the league

Welcome to a new guy from a new guy. Is anyone older here than I? 62 in April....talk about older than dirt...

Gotcha by a year...63 last April.

TheShore will be 59 in November. He is also going to be the first to try to post picks from Africa for a couple weeks in September/October. I might be posting for him.....

Woo Hoo! Should have taken the "Senior discount" on the chips??!!!

The other new member is a guy from my office. Great guy, even if he is Steelers fan... He is on vaca, but I send in his chips and will get him set up next week.

That concludes the older Swan additions, I was supposed to have two younger guys too, but they are lazy and unmotivated. It will be their loss.

I prefer commando... and wallowing in my glory!

Heading to Egypt, Kenya and tanzania. Doing a photo safarii and sightseeing. I am hoping they have some internet over there, especially in the cities.

I'd be hoping they have antibacterial wipes and safe drinking water. Besides that, perhaps mix in an armed guard or two.

I'm sure they have the net in Nigeria, as I have a new business partner over there. As a matter of fact, I'm awaiting a real nice deposit into my account which should be there any day now...

Whether they have the internet or not where you're going, I'm guessing the rookie results will be the same.

Kurt,

I am impressed. You have come up with two snazzy replies in one thread. Maybe this year is your year...


HMMM...on second thought, nevermind.




I LOL'd at the commando, wallowing comment....

Man, you guys are making me feel like a youngster ...

I would say welcome to the new guys but I wouldn't mean it. I look at rookies like pro ball players look at scabs. they mean nothing to me. With all these old farts, are we going to have a geritol division this year? Or a social security division? Damn, next you know we are going to have a WW 2 thread about their war time stories! Hey old asses, please remember to make your picks before your 8pm bedtime.
