Owner Declares Draft Complete Failure; Still Expects To Win It All

In an exclusive interview with the Silver Hammers Owner, GM and Head Coach, Erick Byrd expressed his utter disappointment in the results of the 2007 fantasy draft. While the team was able to pick up some fine acquisitions to go with the core franchise players, Byrd said that he was surprised that his last minute bid for LaDainian Tomlinson and Peyton Manning for his final 2 draft picks was not accepted. "We entirely expected that by the end of the draft we would have Manning, Tomlinson, Steven Jackson, Marvin Harrsion, Steve Smith, Antonio Gates, Vinatieri, and the Baltimore Defense. I am completely astonished that the other owners wanted these players!" Shortly after Byrd would exclaim, "With that team we could have ruled the world!", then broke down into a sobbing heap on the floor of his mansion. After 30 minutes, Byrd regained his composure and declared, "The Silver Hammers are a force to be reckoned with and we will win it all." It is unclear what the "all" is, but this reporter believes it has nothing to do with Fox's Fantasy Football League, at least not the 2007 season.

The current Hammers team (post draft):
QB's: Romo & Trent Green, RB's: McGahee, Jamal Lewis, LenDale White & Chris Brown, WR's: Johnson, Laveranues Coles, Donte Stallworth & Isaac Bruce, TE's: LJ Smith & Tony Scheffler, K: Matt Stover, and DEF's: Green Bay & Seattle

Love the team photo!

Too bad that the draft didn't yield you the players that you had hoped for (lol).

I think that your right. That team would've been unstoppable!
