Chick 101 Fantasy Football Team!!!
Chick 101 Fantasy Football Team!!!
Ok, so heres my big plan. The point of this blog, really, is to give you an overview of whats going on in the world of football. BUT, it is totally up to you if you even watch any of the games. Theoretically, you could watch no football at all and simply read my blog to know whats happening and what people will be talking about. Of course, it does help to actually watch a little bit so you can understand it and begin to enjoy it more (if you already enjoy it, thats good too!).
I decided that football really gets a lot more fun to watch when you are rooting for a team, a player, a hot guy, whatever. The reason guys watch SO much more football nowadays is because they all have Fantasy Football teams. (Read the Chick version of Barbie Playing...oops I mean Fantasy Football here.) They are watching certain players. When those players do good things, they get points. Two peoples fake teams (sorry, "fantasy." Whatever.) then play each other each week so they have an extra opportunity to talk smack to each other.
In any case, Im picking us out a team! That way, you can memorize the players (or write them down) and look for them during Sundays games! You likey? The guys at the Sports Bar will do a double take when you bust out with,
YOU: "Nice touchdown! Yess!!"
DUDE: "Why do you care about Malcolm Floyd?"
YOU: "Oh, sorry, hes on my Fantasy team. :)"
Theyll never know its not real and youll get to enjoy the games way more. Trust me. Tell them your league is on Yahoo Sports if pressed.
We are picking what would look like a real fantasy team. ha. real fantasy. Its not all the best players--that would be too easy and the dudes would be suspect. So here they are! Get really familiar with these names:
RUNNING BACK: LaDanian Tomlinson (NY Jets)
RUNNING BACK: Chris Johnson (Tennesee Titans)
QUARTERBACK: Ben Roethlisberger (Pittsburgh Steelers)
WIDE RECEIVER: Malcolm Floyd (San Diego Chargers)
WIDE RECEIVER: Roddy White (Atlanta Falcons)
TIGHT END: Vernon Davis (San Francisco 49ers)
These are your "starters." As in, "I started Chris Johnson this week." Go crazy and ask them who they started! You also get a "flex" player each week, meaning you can start either another WR or RB. Ours will be RB Matt Forte from the Chicago Bears.
Ill go over the scoring next time. This is good for now. Enjoy and start googling!
