The CHAMP Returns!

Welcome back to Las Vegas Terry Haney!

Nice to see that the former champ has reconsidered his draft location and will be heading back to sin city for the big event.

Greg, must be your influence and all of those tickets.

yes, thank you Terry for returning to Vegas, I already have a bulls eye on me and rumor had it that you were coming to Chicago. One less person to take target practice at me.

The selling point was the $39 rooms at the Flamingo!! That's been a better selling point for us than my dispersal of Corona drink tickets.

Terry is also a very nice guy and enjoyed talking with him in Vegas.Do we still call him champ.

Eddie, I agree with Greg, if you win this crown over the best of the best - it stays for a lifetime.

Terry deserves it. I meant no disrespect to Mr Jurney - he gets the same treatment going forward.

He will always be the champ until you win it. Then you can call him Terry again.

Thanks for the acknowledgment Ken. Upon noticing I planned to return to Chicago I received a couple of correspondence expressing disappointment that I wasn't going to Las Vegas. However I think it had more to do with my last year's performance

than my endearing personality. :rolleyes:

I decided I could go to Las Vegas by myself cheaper than I could take the family to Chicago so yes the decision to go to Vegas was a financial one. My kids sometimes refer to me as being cheap, I prefer to think of it as being thrifty.

At home I long ago lost the 'champ' treatment so it will be good to return to my NFBC family.

Good luck in Chicago Bobby, lots of good fantasy players there and I don't believe they have ever had a back-to-back league champ.

Thanks Terry, good luck to you this year in Vegas, I know you will bounce back. So exactly how long did it take after winning the overall for the family to just call you dad instead of champ. I hope it never wears off with the wife, the kids could care less, except for when they need money
