Are you ready for some “Fantasy” Football?
Those who know me well know that I love all things fall. There is nothing better than the weather, the clothing, the drinks/food, pumpkin-pumpkin-pumpkin, and the return of football season. I couldn’t have imagined anything making me more excited for this fall, until Al told me she was going to join a fantasy football league. Not just one fantasy football league, but after drafting on Tuesday night she joined another over the weekend.
Last Tuesday, we were lucky enough to have our drafts scheduled at the same time. We set up our “war room”, pulled the chalkboard out to record each team’s first five selections, and ordered some pizza to get us through the grueling draft.
As Thursday rolled around, Al was already ahead of me flipping on the game so she could watch her 5th round selection, Tom Brady, open up the season. Thankfully, he played well, because she kept saying “If he doesn’t play well, I’m playing Tyrod Taylor next week.” Obviously, she’s a loyal Buffalo Bills fan.
Do you play fantasy football? How did week 1 look for you?
