Every year I say that I am going to play Fantasy Football, but every year I never take the time to find a league and play. My biggest problem is I can’t decide what players I would actually want. I also know that I would end up picking a bunch of players off my favorite team, the Denver Broncos. This would surely lead to my downfall as my team just isn’t that good right now. After watching this video though, I know that if I was in a league with Darth Vader, I wouldn’t be the only one making bad picks.

The mornings are starting to become colder. The grass is covered in frost as I leave for work in the morning. Every day I pray that the sun will come out and warm up this town.

Football season always means a little more excitement for our small town and this year is no different. This Saturday the University of Nebraska is coming to Laramie to play the Cowboys. This is the first time these two teams have met since 1994 (Nebraska has never played in Laramie though) and this town couldn’t be more excited. (more…)

Everytime I read an article on the Playstation blog I learn about a new feature that I missed or never thought about. Read on to find out what i learned (more…)

The Ever Growing Debate

Last year was one of the worst years to be a Broncos fan. There were some high hopes coming into the year. Starting 6-0 the year before proved that this team had some talent, we just had to live up to it. No one thought we would finish the year with the worst record in team history. While I didn’t agree with all of McDaniel’s choices, it was hard not to like his enthusiasm. One choice I did like was the drafting of Tim Tebow.

Every year for the past few years the folks at sarcasticgamer.com have hosted a 24 hour gaming marathon aimed at raising money for children’s cancer research. I have participated the last 2 years and have enjoyed the experience. This year I want to support the closest children’s hospital which is The Childrens Hospital in Denver. I will start playing at 9 am MST on October 15 and end on October 16 at 9 am MST. If anyone wants to join me i will be on logged onto the psn as WatchfulPenguin so add me and send me a message. My gamertag on Xbox is hawk2086 so hit me up there as well. I’m not sure exactly what games I am going to play but I will be switching it up all day. I will be updating the @WatchfulPenguin twitter feed and my personal one @hawk2086 all day so follow along. If anyone would like to donate to the cause I set up a page at  extralife.org/WatchfulPenguin. Thanks in advance for any and all support.
