Don't listen to them, my sun and stars. A NerWight assist into a ShastaWolf goal ends the game with a T-I-G win.

Thanks, Gwath. I've been waiting ages for you to post your squad.

I've been super swamped at work lately, and brain dead as a result, sorry. I'll try to get to this sometime this week. (Phantom, I give you full permission to call and harass me.)

In addition to suddenly being more busy at work than I anticipated, I've had an onset of jury duty and computer problems at home.

I will aim for the weekend.

Well, that didn't work. My excuse is that I suffered a major plumbing disaster at my house over the weekend and spent most of my time trying to fix that.

I will try to get it sometime this week.

This week is already spiraling out of control on me.

I might be able to get it up on Friday if my Friday commitment goes away (which I kind of expect that it will) but I won't be able to get to it before then.

I've been out of commission this past week with a potentially dangerous eye problem that may require surgery (silver lining is if I need it, it will be end of October so perfect for going as a pirate if necessary for Halloween). I'll find out after Oct. 9 if the eye-drops aren't working and if surgery will be required. Anyway, I'll get my group predictions, round 1 team, and final pre-tournament TTN predictions up within the week (hopefully)

Oh dear! I hope everything goes well.

Week 1 Team

GK - *Ungoliant (ANG)
DF - Salmar (TS)
DF - Maglor (FCV)
DF - Irmo (RV)
DF - KuruWight (TIG) (I have confidence in me!)
MF - Durin (DU)
MF - Tuor (ACB)
MF - *PhantomWolf C (TIG)
FW - Nerdanel (RV)
FW - *Maedhros (IB)
FW - *Earendil (TS)

Also I noticed an error in my $100M team because for some reason in my sadly disordered brain PhantomWolf was a forward, so this is the corrected one...

Kuru's Klub

GK - *Ungoliant (ANG) 16
DF - Findis (FCV) 3
DF - Imlach (IB) 4
DF - KuruWight (TIG) 3
DF - Carcharoth (DOR) 10
MF - Durin (DU) 6
MF - Tuor (ACB) 10
MF - *PhantomWolf (TIG) 12
FW - Araphor (Arnor) 7
FW - *Maedhros (IB) 14
FW - *Earendil (TS) 15

Do I think Araphor is any good? No. I just had 7 Mill to spare and that was the only forward for 7 Million.

Also, change to my forward and midfielder predictions...

Forward?
Earendil

Midfielder?
PhantomWolf
