I tried to come up with a clever title for this blog post about fantasies, but it just wasn't happening, so I finally decided to call a spade a spade.
Those of you that know me, know that I'm a pretty big football fan. I LOVE the months of September through early February (despite winter) because it means that Sunday Funday gets taken to a whole new level. As a reminder I am a Patriots fan, and I usually watch the games at a bar with the other Pats fans in NYC. I've been going to the same bar almost every week for the last 2 football seasons, I've learned most of the ins and outs of the game, and have even gotten to the point where a loss actually affects my mood. But this year, I decided I was going to try something new to make football season even more amazing (if thats even possible) and I joined a fantasy football league.
The league I am in is an all female league that we are doing just for fun. I have been hesitant to do fantasy football because outside of the Patriots players I really don't know any key people in the NFL. When my friend mentioned this free league to me I figured it would be the perfect way to learn. I registered for yahoo and created my team (Team name - Check out my TDs). We had our draft on Monday night and I ended up with a pretty decent roster. I will say the draft process was a little intense. It moves really fast and you don't have a lot of time to select your players, but I think I did okay for a newbie.
Now I just have to sit back and relax until September 8th when the fun really begins. LETS GO PATS!
(Also - insert key refernces from the show The League on fx - prob one of the best shows on television and everyone should watch it)
