G-Son Darryn, Jr. #1 In Week #2

I was very proud of my grandson Darryn York, Jr. last week. He was first to earn some bonus points with the first near perfect score 5-2. I knew he was in for a good day when his Bengals pulled off a mild upset, beating the Patriots in a defensive struggle 7-6. Then went 5-0 before his Bills got out scored by the GB Pack 21-31, and his Titans got ran out of Texas with a Cowboy roping 10-30. Jr. takes the lead for #1 in week #2 over G-Dad Lorenzo, by that bonus 100 points 950 - 850....You go G-Son!!!

• After picking five teams for the last seven seasons, the two additional teams will open up the competition with more variety [since the players all try to pick the top rated teams]. Also the old rule was "you must select two teams from each conference with the 5th pick going either way," this year that rule also has been relaxed, so players can pick as many as the want from either conference, including going with all 7 teams from one or the other. Of course that wouldn't be smart in this competition, because your objective is to get two teams into the Super Bowl, battling each other for the world title, which would assure you a winner from the AFC or the NFC.
• Only four out of the 7 participating in this test run preseason race took advantage of the HOF game, with three picking the Titans -3, and I took the Bills {with the pts.}. We got the jump on the other three players, with 50pts out the "starting gates" for the Tenn 21-18 win over Buff {tying the pt sprd}.
• Player Ruth Mills jumped out of the gates with yours truly, for 250pts after the Thursday and Friday games. Then on Saturday and Monday Nite Football, I picked up another 200 to take a 100pt lead over Ruth {and the pack}, with a 5-2-1 record and total of 450pts in Wk#1. Ruth sits right behind me with 350pts. Lorenzo is #1 for Wk #1. Let's see how long I hold the top spot. I challenge you football fans and fanatics to join up on this brand of fantasy football. It's still not to late before the regular season starts. This game is nothing like the Network games, and a ton of fun to play along. Go to my mailbox lyork2@ca.rr.com and request your signup form. Meanwhile stay tuned on who will win this preseason sprint.

Football Fanatics, I have a hot new game that people are starting to get excited about, but first let me tell you a bit about me. My name is Lorenzo York, but they call me "Dr.Games" because my medicine is large and lethal doses of fun and excitement. I'm also a creator and inovator of games. Back in 2002, I invented a fantasy football game, for my family and friends, to make watching the games on TV more interesting. The object of the competition was to pick five NFL teams and ride them out to the Supr Bowl and see who's teams make it that far. Well, just to show you how this crazy game call football goes, my nephew Kamill Ulrich won our debut competition {in 2002}, at age 8. Then he went on to defend his title two more seasons, for a record setting 3 straight. So is football a kids game or what?! A lady neighbor won the 4th season, before I {a male adult--smile} won my first title in our 5th season. Then Leah {the neighbor} came back and won her 2nd one in 2008, before my brother Clarence finally got his name on the "Lucille Trophy" this year {2008/9 season}. This season we are all pumped up and excited, because I am throwing in a new little wrinkle, with the addition of the college picks. With so many to choose from, this competition is going to be the toughest challenge yet. This is good family fun. Get the kids involved. My family invites your family to join us and help test run this fun competition this season. We extend you a challenge to top our scores. Each week I will update this blog to let you know who is posting the high scores on the world stage. You can also follow the progress of the competition on Twitter under the name "DrGamz." If you think you know a little "something, something" about football, you don't want to miss out on this action. Sign up now in time for the NFL preseason. Find out how you can win big cash prizes.
