| COVINGTON -- It didn�t take long for the Family Fantasy Football League�s 2001 champ to be humbled. In the first week of the new season, Mike Scott�s team, The Write Stuff, lost a one- point heartbreaker to Shane and Besty�s squad, Uncle Ted. The final score was 69.48-68.44. The loss came on the heels of some pre-game trash talking on the part of Mike. �I send them a sympathy card last weekend apologizing in advance for the drubbing I was certain they would receive,� Mike said. � I�m feeling kinda stupid right now.� DON�T BELIEVE THE HYPE: Looks like Mike Walsh, coach of Quien es tu Papa, wasn�t just being modest when he disputed his being selected as the pre-season favorite by the Commissioner�s Office. He just might have been being honest. The Papas were soundly defeated by the Big Bad Mamas, Lanie�s team. Going into Monday night�s game, the Mamas held the lead and still had one player who had yet to take the field. The Papas� players were all finished with their games by Sunday night. Now we know who wears the pants in this league. WELCOME TO THE FFFL: Dapper Dan, the follicularly obsessed team coached by Lanie�s brother Peter, learned quick that life in the Family Fantasy Football League can be rough. In his coaching debut, he found himself on the losing end of a 96.09-81.62 game, compliments of Maillot Jaune, coached by Bobby, the 2000 league champs. Maillout Jaune�s performance also brought up a good question: Who needs Marshall Faulk? For the past two years, Bobby has ridden Faulk to FFFL success. This year, though, Lesley took Faulk with the first overall pick of the FFFL. What does Bobby do? He takes Priest Holmes, who scored four touchdowns for him Sunday, helping to muss Dapper Dan�s perfectly coiffed �do. MEDIC!: Mick and Judy's team, the perennial powehouse Georgia Peaches, found themselves ailing after squaring off with Lesley's team, Medicine Woman. Going into Monday night's game, the Peaches were down 88.23- 61.46. RELIVE THE GLORY: Peruse the league record books. |

| COVINGTON -- With the realization that they make perfect babies, Mike and Lanie have decided to go for the trifecta. That�s right, Lanie recently found out that, once again, she is pregnant. It is her third time. She is about five weeks along and has yet to show the effects, other than morning sickness, headaches and general fatigue. (�You sure it�s not just West Nile virus?� Mike asked.) Perhaps the person most excited about the new baby is big brother Sam. �I want you to have another baby for Ben,� he said, referring to his little brother, when he learned the news. �Because I know Ben likes babies.� Ben�s response was a little more self-serving: �I want some cereal.� So is it a boy or a girl? It�s way too early to tell, but the mom and dad to-be have every intention of finding out as soon as possible. �I�m a firm believer in painting the nursery early,� Mike said. An interesting note: Since Ben�s birth, Mike and Lanie�s health insurer has changed hospital affiliations. So while the new baby will be delivered by the same doctor as Ben, they will be born in different hospitals. That means each of the three siblings will have been born in different institutions: Sam at North Florida Regional Medical Center in Gainesville, Ben in St. Tammany Parish |
| Hospital, and the new baby � for whom a name has yet to be selected � in Lakeview Regional Medical Center. FEEDING HIS HEAD: As if being a big brother two times over isn�t proof enough that he�s a big boy, Sam took another big step recently: His first day of preschool was last week. He showed some trepidation at being separated from his Mom and Dad. But at the suggestion of baby guru Sherry, he goes every day armed with a snapshot of Lanie, which he said he |
| looks at �whenever I miss Of course, it doesn�t hurt that his class has three great teachers and that his friend Alexa, who lives across the street, is in his class. Already, he�s enjoying it. And for good reason: This week, the letter of the week is �c,� and one of his fellow students was assigned to bring in a �c� snack on Monday. The selected snack was cookie cake (worth extra points, if you ask me), eliciting raves from Sam. "It had cookies AND icing," he said. |
