Editor's Note: This is the seventh in a series of feature stories on the men who make up the Erie Fantasy Football League. In order to be featured, you must respond to the official Erie League survey.

Most owners avoid the practice of "talking shit" altogether. Those that do usually wait until they have a quality record before they take part. Then again, Psychedelic B's GM Bryan Vince has never been one to follow the norm.

Despite a dismal 2-8 record, Vince still finds the time to fire some shots at his fellow GM's.

"They are all a bunch of hot air blowing, shit-talking, wannabe owners who don't know the first thing about the game," he said.

Vince, who maintains a three year record of 19-22, is the league's defending champion. The B's knocked off two-time fantasy bowl runner-up Donikers-DTL 74-63 for the 1996 title."

"I must say I took extreme pleasure in beating the Donikers-DTL -- DOOMED TO LOSE!!" he said. "I also get a big chubby when anyone beats the ruff-ruff Shadow Bandits. By the way Paul, is your kid taller than you yet? He must be at least 4'5."

The 25-year-old is a "professional crime fighter" by night. Perhaps the long hours of serving as a police officer would explain the pathetic team he's been able to field this year.

"I have a real job so I don't have all day to browse the USA Today like all these other loser owners" he said. "But my team is a bunch of underachieving sissy girls. Half of them probably play hide the sausage with each other."

Vince claims he will never fall victim to Multiple League Syndrome -- an affliction many Erie Leaguer's have -- in which they feel compelled to play in more than one fantasy football league at a time.

"Unlike most of you losers, I have a freaken life," he said. " I guess playing in other leagues must substitute for the lack of sex they are getting. Your wives and girlfriends must be really horny -- I mean happy!"

As for his family's involvement with his Erie League team, Vince said there isn't any. (Hey Bryan! Check you record. Maybe you could break the fifty point barrier if you turned the team over to your sister Dana!)

"My mom wouldn't know a football if it hit her in the ass and my dad just doesn't want me to get shot," he said. "My brother is a lost cause and my sister THINKS she knows what she is talking about. Then again, she's dating (Atomic Punks GM Keith) Kuratko so they have something in common."
