Thursdays with Teo

Its time to get your daily Fantasy 6-pack antidote for that poisonous thing that you call boredom. Today, we provide you with information and clues on players who aren't going to play this weekend- their reasons, our thoughts and conclusions on their absence. Fantasy 6-pack is also delighted to announce the people's verdict in the case against Juriani Saini.

Guilty

An overwhelming number of 17 out of 19 votes cast, declared estranged manager, Juriani Saini of Sugarush TFC, Guilty as charged.

It all went horribly wrong for the manager when she pressed enter without rethinking her "Scoring in My Gaps" proclaimation.

 Guilty, Now for the other one-who incidentally has been keeping an unusal low profile lately.

Sugarush Touch Fantasy Club has since dropped its form and now sees itself at second place. It was a proclaimation that we would like to thank Juriani for, without which there wouldn't be anything to fuel our creativity. To wrap the polls up, here is our analysis.

-17 other managers will stop at nothing to bring down the Fantasy Manager on top.
-Juriani refuses to acknowledge her confession, and is owner to that solitary vote of innocence.

-Ju, has one friend. Me. Ok it wasn't me, but I would have reciprocated that vote for Gideon in the DOTD if I had the chance.

-6 Fantasy managers will stop at nothing to bring any other competitor down.

Who says Fantasy 6-pack isn't ruthless?

Baby Hatchet
Now after a car accident, which had ruled out Elmo Cheok for 2 games, it seems like Elmo's run with bad luck has continued.

The Symptoms of Stress

Hit by something which some might say is alot more serious than a injured Toe, Elmo has pulled out for the season after having spend the season accumulating a grand total of one cap. 

We have come to learn that mixing School Work and Giving Tuition forms a energy sapping concoction where there is just not enough space to simply inspire oneself and soak in a competitive atmosphere which is the STL. 

Besides if running around guys, twice your age, thus making you look good is not motivation enough, its hard to say what is. Nevertheless, we wish Elmo luck in his School work and Tuition Giving and hopes that he finds some other way to unwind. 

MIA PLAYER 2

In one of the previous articles, we have already released information on a prominent player who isn't going to participate in this weekend's game. This time, we won't be giving names, rather we will be disclosing his whereabouts.

1) He is heading towards the South Of the Border, to an island in Indonesia.
2) He currently resides in the North of Singapore in the Greater Woodlands Area.

This clues should suffice.

Wacky Wednesday Fantasy Tips

We're back. Yes again, after a lengthy week of tipping absence. Its time for your Wacky Wednesdays with yours truly, Huat-2 out of 3-Teo. Now we know some of you are seemingly bothered and maybe a little bit flustered over the lack of fantasy news about team lists, positional information. Rest assured we'll be giving adequate tips that is 66 percent guarenteed correct. That according to our mathematical skills is the equivalent of  one tip that will go horribly wrong. We shall leave it to you the reader to decide which.

Huat Tip 1 -Terence Toh

Terence Toh,  an affinity for Scoring Big Lately?

Scoring a Fantasy record of 88-how coincidental?-points, Camel Toh turned in a brilliant performance against Brotown. Remembering to bring his game face along with his Jersey, Toh made an unfamiliar switch to link and capitalised on the ever widening gaps left by a tiring Bro-Town side. This weekend will see the quick feet of Toh being placed back in the middles as he goes against yet another side with willing but ageing legs. Fantasy 6-pack fully expects Toh to:

Firstly Bring his Jersey, then exploit slower opposition without prejudice and lastly to sucessfully attempt a behind the back pass. 

Round 5 Prediction: 55-65 points

Huat Tip 2-David Teo

Chilling out enjoying a beer with  Guoyong

Now yours truly will go where no other Tipster has gone before. I shall go a step further in my efforts to embrace the shamelessness typified by my past indiscretions and tip myself as a very Huat bet. Despite winning the dick of the day award, yours truly finished with an unprecedented 65 points last weekend, thus remaining as the top fantasy points scoring link. Yes, I have been working on my fitness and also ball-handling skills during the past few weeks which would explain an overflowing confidence in attempting flamboyant passes. I look forward to this weekend when that same pass comes off, and I win the play of the day.

Yes I will do it again. And no, yours truly doesn't learn from his mistakes. 

Round 5 Prediction: 50-60 points

Huat Tip 3-Adam Chan

THE GONGCHA INCIDENT

Adam Chan also known as Fat Chan, Road Block, Hatchet Man, Fat Fighters Chan and now after the GONGCHA/MaCCers INCIDENT-the Hamburglar, managed to score a hat-trick last weekend and finished off the game with another whopping fantasy score of 62. Yes, when Chan turns it on, he manages to squeeze that body of his through gaps. A scientific abnormally, one might say, although it is known to many that Chan does indeed possess a relatively speedy short burst that has led to considerable success on the pitch. Although we do hope for 6-pack and his future wife's sake, that he builds on his short burst success by adding some endurance to his fitness. That said, Chan also has the tendency to find himself at the right place, and the right moment to finish off tries. It won't be a surprise if he finishes as a Top Scoring player this weekend.



Round 5 Prediction: 50-60 points.

Yours Truly accepts DOTD

I had a dream. A dream that a season would fly by without me ever walking on the disgraced footsteps of Chan, Toh and Sumantri. A dream brought crashing down because of a poorly executed 'carlos spencer' pass.

Maybe I should have shaved my legs.

I'm probably just packing larger equipment than Carlos,

or maybe I've got Yum's Hands.

We'll never really know. 

Acceptance

In what must be the closest dick of the day battle ever (other than the time when it was Terence vs Terence vs Terence). I hereby accept the unceremonious victory of this DOTD award with the sourest of grapes, and would like to not thank the 17 people who engaged in cyber bullying and victimised me by abusing their voting privelleges.

To the kind people, 

who were swayed by my campaign for your hearts and minds. You know, I know. =)

Run up to DOTD election-Sunday Morning

00.47-Chris Wall- the main antagonist, comments that he has "no comments" about Lee's failed dive at the try line.

00.58-Yum Hwa- deflects attention off himself by highlighting an error by his teamate. It took Lee a quick 11 mins to conjure this response. Incidentally the DOTD award this season, has not yet returned home to Lee-the most decorated 6-packian in the category to date.

01.48-Wafer Thin Ong laughs and nominates either Lee or Teo for the DOTD.

1.52- Yours truly musters his first defence by comparing the two offences.

07.37-Chris Wall remembers Terence's error and wakes up early to nominate. Chris Wall has nominated 2 players.

11.19-Chan is unable to locate snooze button and has risen to find so many contenders. He proposes a poll. 

11.21- Chris Wall has nominated his third player, Gideon Loh. Who is probably the most unfortunate candidate.

While Chris Wall has enthusiastically put three of his teamates to the sword, he has also unknowingly destined himself for DOTD glory sometime this season. No, you can't antagonise so many people and expect to get away with it. It is too bad that I am unable to have a word with Chris this weekend about him keeping on over my tunnel ball/worm burner/carlos fail. Especially after the Easter Special, where yours truly wrote a highly favourable article on the man himself.

A final vote score of 17 to Yours truly, 15 to Gideon and 7 to Adam.

Lets draw a few conclusions to this vote. 

1) Selfishness is apparently acceptable or this is indeed a popular vote.

2) SA boys cannot be trusted. Khairul, Liang Sheng, Akira engaged in Modern Day Judas behaviour, flip flopping between votes. 

3)Erwyn Lam is a snitch also known as a tattletale.

4)Khairul does not know what 9am means, changing his vote AGAIN after the deadline.

Photo catches Chan in compromising position with banned substance?

Two weekends ago, we had the pleasure of watching a highly accurate Adam Chan claim a hat-trick over Bro-Town. Spotting a pair of goggles, Chan answered his critics and seemed like a man refreshed and far away from his weight problems. Although the glasses have kept the critics at bay this week, one wonders if its a sufficient antidote.

Chan, Diet of champions.

 
There being no known cure to Fattiness other than Liposuction, a good diet and lots of time training. The former being at a premium cost and therefore preferred but just unaffordable. Chan had opted for the latter at the beginning of the season to lose 10 kgs in 10 weeks, by hard work and discipline.

However, with photo evidence emerging out of facebook, of a milkshake on one hand and an already emptied packet of  fries on the other. Adam Chan has once again re-ignited questions over his lifestyle.

Many will feel that this latest incident is a betrayal to the weight loss goal that he drew for himself. However, yours truly empathises with Chan. Yes I was once fat too and craved for McDonalds. Like Weepu said to his critics, "Get a Life". Chan has his, and milkshakes/burgers/fries play a very integral part.

Whilst Chan has once again placed McDonalds over his Team in the list of priorities. One can only hope that it is simply a one-off incident and maybe, just maybe, his prescriptive glasses will work wonders again for the following games.

*As a friend, I am not sure if I should be confused or disappointed with Adam Chan for getting caught. I don't know if you're just trying to inspire me to write again or you just slipped up and did not expect the photo on facebook.

*I've just learnt that the drink is not a milkshake but rather a drink from Gong Cha. This is testament to me being unfamiliar with Drinks that are potentially fattening.

"Most people’s major life regrets are not about the things they’ve done, but about the things they’ve not done, the goals they never reached, the type of lover or friend or parent they wished they’d been but know they failed to be."

Unveiled! David "Integrity?" Teo

Good day, Friends and Fans of 6 Pack. It has been 2 months since the blog has been revived. We have received so many hits on the blog that it's overwhelming! Thank you all for your support! :)

When the blog was first revived and the first few articles published, fans took joy and pleasure in reading the articles. They made time at work/school/home (for those bumming) pass so much faster, and not to mention awesome abs exercises from laughing. And then they started to wonder... who is writing all this?! We said "oh it's Adam and David."

Now, everyone knows Adam. Remembered affectionately by his monikers, "Roadblock", "Hatchet Man" or "I wanna lose weight but I still eat hamburgers everyday" Chan. For those who still do not know this FAMOUS FIGURE, your punishment is to read every post in 6-pack 10 times for ignorance.

Everyone loves the big guy!

When we come to David, some ask (usually the younger ones) " Who the f*** is DAVID TEO? "Integrity" Teo?? Is he the one who ran away from camp with a rifle? Isn't he in DB now??"

Yes, it is very sad that people remember the latter and not the one who entertains you every week with his witty posts or some might say Gutter or Yellow Journalism. Refer to http://www.answers.com/topic/yellow-journalism for explanation.

So who is this guy? This guy who feeds on every piece of juicy/controversial news and turns it into an article? This guy who trolls my facebook for unflattering pictures of myself? Fret not, for this writer will unveil this character for you guys today!

Name - David Kenneth Teo

Alias - "Integrity" Teo (Self-proclaimed and not supported by this writer), "Sell Fish" Teo "Gutter" Teo (Not self-proclaimed but supported by this writer)

Age - 28

Height - 178cm

Weight - Not as favourable as the past.

Position - Winger/Link

Hobbies - Bumming (which includes writing posts for 6 Pack, updating Fantasy 6 Pack Stats, watching/wasting his time supporting a team called Liverpool and yes, Trolling Facebook for photos!)

Things you ought to know about him.

- Probably the only 6 Pack Star to be capped for Rugby and Touch.

- Co-Creator of Fantasy 6 Pack, the game which has taken the touch scene by storm.

- Ladies's Man

Dave turning it on, off the field.

I could write so much more but I will leave it to you guys (and future articles) to find out more about your favourite stars. STL resumes this Saturday ! Catch 6 Pack playing Bro Town!

P.S - This is the writer's first article for 6-Pack, he hopes that it has enlightened you and made your Tuesday a little brighter!

A case of "If you can't join 'em, beat 'em" ?

Kevin Loo has just defected to Monsoon.

I repeat.

Kevin Loo making it to Monsoon's A-list

 Kevin Loo has just defected to Monsoon.


Yum Hwa: "Oh the betrayal! He's the reason why I started going to the gym."
Adam Chan: "Damn, I wouldn't be the heaviest in the team with him around"

We thought he'd never play for another team.

A pioneer in Sixpack, Kevin Loo's colourful character, loud hairstyles and short temperament, trailblazed a path which many did not take. Having hung up his boots a month before 6-pack's winning season, Loo has spent years languishing in the wilderness of touch football's lowest tier- The Rugby Training warm-ups. Once deciding that he had enough, he first texted his interest to the powers that be, seeking a lifeline back into the STL.

This is how the text conversation went.

"A little far". Not something the powers that be, want to hear from prospective 6-packians. Nonetheless, according to reliable sources(who wish to remain anonymous) in the Monsoon setup, a gleeful Kevin Loo has secured a Free Transfer to the Monsoon Dragons who incidentally hold their trainings, a little further away in eastern part of Singapore. Yes, damn! that traffic around Singapore Polytechnic can get really terrible.

We'll see you soon mate.

Easter Special:World Cup Bronze Medallists secures friendly with 6-pack

This saturday, Fantasy 6-pack returns with a reason to believe that last weekend's wet dissapointment has long evaporated away. Yes we're back to insert some guilt-free sinful goodness, into an otherwise bland day sandwiched between Good Friday and Easter. Thats right folks, your Holy Saturday has never sounded this pleasurable.

Touch World Cup squad

3rd in the world and now baying for some more blood. The Women's World Cup team, have agreed to a one-off showdown, aiming to place the cross down upon a spotlight hogging 6-pack side. Yup, ever since the STL started, focus have shifted from the TWC stars and onto the media-whoring, ever fan friendly, 6-pack. 

Now whether this is a cause for resentment for the more successful side is anyone's guess. But what we can be sure about is that a couple of individuals have jumped in praise and landed right into the "If you can't beat them, join them" bandwagon. 

She may be a Fantasy Genius but she still hasn't learnt a thing about Untagging.

Step up Jazreel Tan and Jeslyn Lim, our fresh converts. It must not have been easy to have their beliefs tested when the "popularity rug" was swept from right under their feet. Nevertheless, the limelight huggers have closely followed the attention, making the step up into realising their full potential in life as Fantasy 6-pack Managers. 

With our stimulating written pieces, interesting personalities, domestic feuds, ravishing good looks and exciting gameplay, it is no wonder that 6-pack now commands a "flock" that craves for daily/weekly written sermons on Team Information. 

"oi, wheres the lineup for tmr?"-Jeslyn Lim Shufen despite past hatcheting incidents is now an avid follower

"wahhh... how to play? how to play? I very sua ku wannn..." which loosely translates to....

"wow, how do I play? What are the rules? I'm not a very sharp one"-Anne Goh stating her interest in participating in the Fantasy 6-pack league.

Now this isn't supposed to be an article boasting of our achievements, because frankly we really do have none since 2006. Rather this is an article reaching out to the unconvinced public that 6-pack's day of redemption is near and you're invited to be a witness to the joyous event. For He is coming........

"Chris" will Rise Again

Sources close to the powers that be, have informed yours truly that the "Chris"-a mythical creature from the land of the long white cloud- will come out of his deep slumber and shall rise again on the second and not the third day of Easter. Now according to Blog Scriptures, this will mark a fruitful occasion as the "Chris" with his wise sayings, will spread his knowledge, and add his expertise on the field. 

Thru his coming, he will save us from Monsoon and finally when the dust settles, deliver us all the beers. 

While an appearance in baby blue has never been in doubt, it has been an interesting mystery as to guess when the man from the long white cloud would actually make his debut.

However while wrecking my brain over this article, any questions over his mysterious debut appearance has just been agonisingly quashed today, by the man himself, the moment he clicked on the "I'm Going" Button in Facebook. I had a whole story planned bro.

This weekend, pits the NZ star in a couple of personal matches. TWC team vs Chris Wall and more significantly a contest against his better half Haseena Allapitchay who will, by association, become 6-pack's latest WAG when the referee blows the first whistle of the game.

With entry into 6-pack, comes the instant realisation that all facebook photos can come back and haunt you

We welcome the enthusiastic Singapore Veteran into our inner social circle. Nonetheless, Has, we hope, you do realise that beneath the glitz and glamour lies some ardous camera work. We'd like to remind you as well, though you may hold numerous International Caps for Rugby and Touch, you start as a WAG in 6-pack with just one. That makes you junior WAG, no matter what you've done and who your man is.

WAG STATs

Name: Haseena Allapitchay(Not related to Samad)

Ht: 160cm

Weight: Nah, You just don't ask a woman for her weight

Known Quotes: "so glad you guys are back", "love the posts"

Capped for Both Rugby and Touch and probably the only WAG that has played in the HK7s.

Likes: Penchant for Masked Wrestlers

*Authors note-It is not easy to troll for photos. It is a thankless task which I do feel really bad about. So before you start screaming, realise that I'm just doing a job that needs to get done.
