Are You Ready for Some Football???

I guess a better question is Am I Ready for Some Football???

This weekend was the kick-off to Football Season. J is among the millions of happy men. He could not wait for it to start. "Why do they call it kick off weekend - when they only play on Thursday and Sunday and Monday? They should play all weekend long...." The NFL theme song sends shivers down his spine.

Not only does he love the sport, he's recently added another element - Fantasy Football. This is his second year and he's taken on the role as commissioner for one of his teams, yes he has two.

Wikipedia describes Fantasy Football - Fantasy Football is a fantasy sports game in which participants (called "owners"), arranged into a league, each draft or acquire via auction a team of real-life American football players and then score points based on those players' statistical performance on the field. A typical fantasy league will employ players from a single football league, such as the NFL or an NCAA division.

His number one draft choice is L.T. from the Chargers.

His other big play is Drew Brees from the Saints (which unfortunately did absolutely nothing for him this weekend). But this was just the beginning. J has high hopes for this guy.

I love sports and love to watch - but dang.... that was a lot of football this weekend.

I guess this is where the announcer should break in and say "We interrupt this marriage for Football Season"......

Stay tuned....
