I've been playing Fantasy Football for over 10 years now. Atleast since 9th grade if memory serves. Some people would say it's for suckers, but I think you're a sucker if you say it's for suckers.
It combines my two greatest loves: Sports and Statistics. I mean, I guess those are my two greatest loves. I like running and women and having my ego petted as well. But Sports and Statistics seems healthier.
This year was a better year than all because of the "Auction" style of the draft. An auction is more like the Capitalist regime compared to the Dictatorship of Snake-Draft. You luck into 1st place in a snake draft, you're set. It's like being born as Kim-Jong-Il's son. Roll of the dice.
But with an auction, every player is available to every guy. And this year, my good friend from work and fellow degenerate Dennis is in my league, as well as my hero, role model, and boss. And since you gotta put in a hundo to join, everyone in it tries pretty hard. Which I like. It's fun.
I think I did well altogether. And I know I've researched before and generally post my roster on my blog so here goes:
It was an amazing 2.5 hours. I made some good jokes in the chat room. My favorite was when someone said that the Vikings were desperate for receivers, and I said they even gave Michael J. Fox a tryout. I went there.
So, even if the rest of my life crumbles around me, I'll have this fantasy team to manage. So I got that going for me, which is nice.
P.S. - During the draft, my friend said I looked like
this guy, Austin Collie.
Maybe a bit, but I think I look more like this:
