Apologizes to Jarrett (the only owner to be left
off this space - next week I PROMISE!), but
how could I not highlight these two this week:


















It's the teacher vs. the doctor

Syracuse vs. Haverford

Ali vs. Frazer

So not Ali vs. Frazer, but the others are true.

These two continue to strive beyond just
college. Dave finished graduate school last
year and currently teaches high school history
(and heads up the Japanese Club - is that still
true???).  Navid meanwhile kills mice daily
while striving to reach a cure (email him for
more details - way out of my brain power).

Both enjoy current relationships, and both
have separate but intense reasons for wanting
this win this week.

Good luck to both. It's going to be a fun
Christmas  (and for the first time in recent
memory - Hanukkah) weekend.

He's got style, he's got class, he can barley
spell... HE's 2r's 2t's!




















Yes, what better way too celabrate the Jewish
holyday of Chanukkah, then with some wurds
on are Jewish Nose.

Won of the most dedicated of are league (he
was willing to miss the birth of his niece for the
draft), the Nose knows how two show off for
the league: As he approached the playoffs, he
considered resting his players for the cuming
weeks in hopes of a victorE.  While the move
didnt work, it definitely deserves some credit.

By day, mild mannered Jarrett sells overpriced
suits to New Yawk fat cats.  By night, he sits at
home and decides how to look his best.  And it
usualE works (jacket or no).

Jay may be the best looking (debatable), but
Jarrett is the best dressed by far (more
debatable).

Our resident pretty boy.














And boy is he pretty.  I mean, look at that hair!

Quick update on Cantor: He's currently
working for a production house in SoHo (for
you non-New Yorkers... it's in New York), and
living in his semi-new digs in Murray Hill (again,
New York).  The setting for his apartment is
poetic: Just across the street from a movie
theatre.

The love life is active, if nothing long term.  He
made mention that the girl from "The Greatest
Story of All Time" will be making an NYC
appearance soon for 5 full days.

5 Days for 5 Second Stare?
Now THAT is poetic...

Yes, that's Brock, Simmons, and some pretty
good looking chick who I hope makes the
journey down to NYC for New Years with Brock.

And what did Mr. Simmon's have to say?
Luckily Brock, in his usual great writing has
provided us with his fourth column of the year,
In The Huddle -
Local Guy Meet Sports Guy.  

Brock meanwhile is enjoying life, and ready for
his close up as he head's into the final four. A
few quotable quotes from my conversation with
#3:

"If Nick and I are in the finals, I can't be held
accountable for what comes out of my mouth
and onto my keyboard"

"And if I beat Navid, I'm going to jerk off all
over myself"

Rumours of his demise are overrated.  



















I mean, look at him.  He looks fine to me.  AND
he's smiling!!! (actually this is one of my
favorite pic's of Brian...)

No? Hear he has a bad foot? Yeah, I hear that
too. Luckily it isn't his driving foot so he can
still make it to work.  

Our self-deprecating columnist is living it up at
home in Long Island, working for Cablevision -
specifically the Independent Film Channel
(channel 81 on Time Warner Cable in
Manhattan).

He's dating a lovely girl who lives in
Manhattan, and like the rest of us, probably
doesn't watch IFC.

Brian is in the playoffs for the second year in a
row, and coming off a 122 point victory (where
he doubled his opponents score), he has
confidence.  Good luck to you and everyone in
the brackets above...

Gentlemen, meet Jeri.





















Jeri, meet the gentlemen.

As everyone is aware by now, Jason is dating
a lovely girl named Jeri.  Most think it's
because she's sweet, nice and looks good. I
think it's because she has a dude's name.

Yes, Sherman has evened out again.  Last
year when his team was riding high, he
couldn't get a "quality" date.  Now as his team
rummages for wine in the basement, he is
enjoying the blissful life of dating, as we move
him from the SINGLE category to the DATING
column, alongside ROFF Owners including
Nick Serrano, Brian Yeung and Navid Sadri
(congrats to all on new loves).

Meanwhile, Jason is enjoying his Upper East
Side apartment, haggling over nickels for a
subsidiary of Ross Stores and Sundays in the
Park.  Congrats Jason, here's to happiness!

Three plus years in the making.























That's right, this weekend, in the remote New
York State town of Schenectady, Gregory
Moore and Karen Male (now Moore) tied the
knot in front of friends, family, and if Gregg
had his way, the family dog.

It was a great time, a beautiful ceremony, and
the happy couple is headed to Italy for a
weeks stay.  Oh, and here's a little known fact:
it's their first vacation together as a couple,
and the first time Gregg has been across the
Atlantic.

To the happy couple: Many years of
happiness...

Halloween is full of freaks.

And nothing more freakish than a man with
marshmallow's down his shirt.













Yes, Stay Puff made an appearance this
Halloween in the form of Moore - with a
marshmallow bag on his head.  And who could
stop this hideous ghost? Why the
Ghostbusters: Cantor, Sherman, Blass and
Epstein (sounds more like a law firm that
Ghostbusters...)













We held a Halloween-Optional surprise party
for my girlfriend Stephanie.  Everything went
off without a hitch, and the night led us to
karaoke, where the 'Busters made an
appearance and drove the crowd wild with one
simple phase: Who ya gonna call?

Admit it: You hate him.

At 7-0, Brick Walls and Trees has become the
only ROFF team to go undefeated this late in
the season.  And with a strong team, it doesn't
look they will be slowing down in the final six
weeks.

So admit it: You hate Scott, and this picture
doesn't make you like him anymore:





















Scott is currently enjoying his time at Disney,
where he has a new boss named Iger (rhymes
with "tiger").

Last week he went down to Washington to
witness first hand the Redskins spanking of
the 49er's.  It was this fans first trip to the
"mecca" of Skins football - FedEx Field.  He
said it was the most Burgundy and Gold in one
place he has ever seen...

We really do hate you...

The time had to come eventually.

Yes, that's right, the ROFF finally had a
member tie the knot - a surprisingly it was
with a girl!




















Yes, on June 5 of this year, Josh Lukin married
Lauryn Taubman Lukin in a ceremony on the
shore of the Chesapeake Bay, thereby
guaranteeing himself access to Ravens games
for years to come. Just a month earlier, Josh
and Lauryn moved into a two-bedroom in
Canton, Maryland after Josh moved down from
New Jersey.  The move came about when Josh
got a job at Eisner Communications - the most
prestigious advertising agency in the state (it's
a small state).  And Lauryn works for the...
well, do I really have to tell you?


Congrats to Josh and Lauryn.  Here's to a
lifetime of happiness!

Russia called Nick, and Nick answered. But
what is his post-Russia game plan, you ask?

"My return flight was booked last  January for
Nov. 21, and over the past few weeks my Dad
and I have tried to move it up, closer to my
Oct. 26 contract end date. Anyway, this has
been really difficult and ultimately would be
really expensive (to change the flight), so I'm
going to stay until Nov. 21. I'll be back at the
beginning of Thanksgiving week."

"It's killing me missing these NFL Sundays, but  
I will be home in time for my nephew's baptism,
so that's good news. The other thing is that
this extra time has given me a good chance at
going to London for a  week with Julia at the
end of October, to see my campus and kind of
scope it out."












We miss you Nick... hurry back.

It was a game to define all Sunday
throw-around games. In what has become a
yearly thing, Sunday's in the Park kicked off
this year in Central Park, NYC.  Teams were
determined early with Gregg Moore and Jason
Sherman going up against Scott Watson and
Marc Epstein.














It was a tough match from the beginning, with
Mooreman and Watstein matching TD for TD.  
That was until Epstein got sacked in the
endzone for a 2 point safety - a big turn in the
game.  

With the game clock ticking down (we only
played to 50), Mooreman marched down field
leading 49-47.  But a big defensive stop in the
endzone by Watson gave Watstein the ball.  
And on 3rd down, Epstein hit Watson in the
endzone, giving them the first win of the
season and a big victory...

...of course, that is until next Sunday in the
Park...

As everyone is aware, our dear friend Rich was
luckily NOT in New Orleans when that b*tch
Katrina came to town. Rich did meet up with his
WDSU Channel 6 staff in Jackson, Mississippi
with the same three sets of clothes he took to
draft weekend (good thing he bought a Draft
Weekend t-shirt... is it too early to joke?).  
Anyhow, I am now sure of two things:
1. The WDSU staff is probably sick of seeing
Kiss in a Rolling Stones t-shirt and
2. Rich is ok.  In fact, as you see below, one of
his co-workers has made his way back into New
Orleans and graciously took a picture of Rich's
car for all of us to see (the red jeep) .  Of
course, the yellow bug didn't fare as well.





















Rich, it goes without saying we are all pulling
for you and the city of New Orleans. If you need
anything at all, we are happy to help.

Parker called me last week to make sure I got
his phone message.  The message - which I
received April 1 - dealt with the fact that Parker
had sexually harassed a woman and wanted to
know his legal course of action. Like most of
Parker's messages, I found it funny and
dismissed it.  But like Parker, he called to
make sure I got it... 6 months later (and to
make sure I found it funny... which, for the
record, I did)

This Friday Parker will turn 26.  I remember it
like it was only 7 months ago. Ahhh...
















Parker is currently out in LA working hard on
the recently renewed American Dad.  He
attended the premiere of the Family Guy
straight to DVD movie, which he recommends
and says is hilarious.  He also recently
acquired Donovan McNabb to help out his
struggling 1-4 team. He did not find this as
funny.

He also would like to mention to that he
recently was in the Green Room at Jimmy
Kimmel Live and saw Mike Jones (Mike Jones,
Mike Jones, Jones).  "That was kinda fun."
