BagOfNothing Fantasy Football

Well, I finally made up my mind on what to do with fantasy football this year.  Instead of choosing a free league or a paid league, I thought I would just play both.

Here’s the free league from Yahoo!:

Group ID: 4737

It should be neat trying something new with the Yahoo! version, but I’ve played the Sporting News version for the past seven or so years and totally love it.  The downside, it’s going to cost about $20, $17.99 if you sign up for the early bird special which ends in about 3 days.  In short, it’s only about a $1 a week to play.

Beheaded snake sends man to hospital

PROSSER, Wash. – Turns out, even beheaded rattlesnakes can be dangerous. That’s what 53-year-old Danny Anderson learned as he was feeding his horses Monday night, when a 5-foot rattler slithered onto his central Washington property, about 50 miles southeast of Yakima.

Anderson and his 27-year-old son, Benjamin, pinned the snake with an irrigation pipe and cut off its head with a shovel. A few more strikes to the head left it sitting under a pickup truck.

“When I reached down to pick up the head, it raised around and did a backflip almost, and bit my finger,” Anderson said. “I had to shake my hand real hard to get it to let loose.”

His wife insisted they go to the hospital, and by the time they arrived at Prosser Memorial Hospital 10 minutes later, Anderson’s tongue was swollen and the venom was spreading. He then was taken by ambulance 30 miles to a Richland hospital to get the full series of six shots he needed.

The snake head ended up in the bed of his pickup, and Anderson landed in the hospital until Wednesday afternoon.
