Well we had a great time in Kansas City, despite the results of all of the involved sporting events. Kim and I got into KC on Saturday afternoon and immediately met up with my family, our friend Amy, and whomever else was in town. They were already hanging out at the 810 Zone waiting for the UC-Louisville game later that night. The bar is huge, but we still managed to fill up the game room section pretty well to watch the game. It started off well, but in the end Louisville took home the Keg of Nails and ended the Bearcats unbeaten streak.

We woke up early on Sunday morning to catch our chartered bus to Arrowhead Stadium for a tailgate party and then the game. Our bus ended up parking near some other buses from Cincinnati and full of Bengals fans, so the pregame parties were great. The game versus the Chiefs also started off pretty well, but even with a couple of scores in the final quarter, the Chiefs still ended up winning the game. The Bengals are now 1-2 in the last three years at Arrowhead Stadium, and I think it’s time to play against a different team.

My thoughts on the weekend can pretty much be summed up with this photo of Phil and I taken by my mom. We brought a camera along for the weekend, but didn’t even take it out of the bag. Fortunately my mom has a ton up on her flickr site.

My fantasy results for the week are pretty much on par with the results of the Cincinnati games. I lost badly to Kim in one of my leagues, and have dropped out of first place. Kim now sits at the top of that league. I also lost in another league and fell to 9 out of 12 teams. I just completed a big trade, so I’m hoping things will start turning around. In the final league, I actually won and I’m still holding on to first place in that league. Finally, one team that is actually following in the footsteps of good teams, like the Rockies.
