Fantasy Football

I have never really taken fantasy football seriously. I've played for a few years now, but I've always let it autodraft and most weeks I would even forget to check to see if my players had bi-weeks or were injured. I just didnt really care that much. I did it because it taught me more about pro football and I got to learn a lot about different players. Plus, it was fun being invested in more games. :D

Well this year is different! Some friends from home invited John and I to play in their league. We both decided to join. Well between last year and this year, I started watching The League. If you have never seen it and like football, watch it- it's hilarious! When I was asked to play this year with mostly all boys, I felt like the wife in that show. haha she is cut throat too!

Anyway, that show encouraged me to care more about fantasy football. SO, I did a BUNCH of research. I looked up all the rules, how to draft players, how to learn which players were good, which order to draft players in- you name it I have looked it up! After all the research, I started to create my pre-draft list. I had it all down and was SUPER excited about my future team.

So the draft came and it took FOREVER. I started to get frustrated because it literally took 3 hours. RIDICULOUS! We have 10 people playing on our team. I was a little disappointed because I realized that if you just pick the next best player for each position, you'd still have a good team. Oh well, at least doing all that research taught me a lot and I know a lot about my players now.

I have an AWESOME team and I kicked some butt the first week! I know this probably wont last long, but I was super excited ;D I won my game AND I ranked 1st out of all 10 of us. YAY for a first week victory! haha we'll see how the rest of the season goes :D
