Oh well, football season is underway again and we all know what that means: FANTASY FOOTBALL!!! I love fantasy football almost as much as watching regular football.
It's funny how I never used to like football. I used to think it was stupid game of brute force and no brains. Until I started watching it, that is. That's when I discovered that there is a psychological component to it, and an in-depth strategy. Now I love it and I can't get enough. I thought that watching football on TV or going to the occasional game was fun enough, until I discovered the ultimate in football fun--fantasy football.
In fantasy football, you get to put your teams together from the best of the best players and pit them against other people who have done the same. Being that I'm "VenomX," I always name my teams after something to do with snakes--so this year I coach two teams, the Sidewinders and the Rattlers. The Sidewinders face a major obstacle--two wide receivers have a BYE the same week. This means that I need another wide receiver, and I will have to drop one of the current ones.
The Rattlers did not face a similar dilemma until recently. The Baltimore-Houston game is delayed and will count as a BYE for both teams this week. That meant that I had to drop a player and pick up a free agent. I had to do that without the benefit of scouting a few recievers. Last year my trouble was with tight ends, this year wide receivers seem to be the issue. It wouldn't be fantasy if there weren't problems with the roster that needed to be solved.
Did I mention that I love this game?????
On a more personal note, Ashleigh's first birthday is approaching quickly. It's hard to believe that she's been with us for a year now. She is such a blessing from the Lord, that I can't even begin to put into words how she has touched my life for the better. I would do anything for that little girl.
If anyone is still reading this, I hope that I will see you at Ashleigh's party on Saturday, Oct. 4 at Maumee Valley Church.
And sign up for fantasy football. You'll be glad you did!
