Top 10 reasons why Fantasy Football is so great
10. It is a legitimate reason to fork over the cash to get NFL Sunday ticket on Directv.
9. You get to have a fantasy draft at a bar or a friends place for several hours and talk nothing but football. (If this isn’t the closest thing we get to heaven then I don’t know what is.)
8. The potential for excessive bragging rights for picking up a guy in the 11th round that turns out to be a stud.
7. You have a legitimate reason for sitting on your ass all day watching football with nothing on but your underwear and your teams jersey.
6. Cussing at the TV because the guy on the team you can’t stand but picked up because he is “just too good to pass up” just dropped “the easiest pass ever!”
5. Proof positive that chicken wings are not only just a delicious food but also can be the cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast, lunch and dinner.
4. If your wife/girlfriend needs a little “attention” you can throw in a little “afternoon delight” at halftime and still not miss the second half kickoff.
3. Getting obcene text messages from friends calling you every disrespectful or racial epithet isn’t just tolerated but encouraged.
2. Only in fantasy football will a game between the Chiefs and the Falcons have the potential to make or break your whole season.
1. You can start drinking at 10am on a Sunday and no one seems to care.
The Bird Speaks!








I turned down the Directv NFL package this year. I bought baseball this year and it was $100 cheaper with many more games. I just could not fork over the $260 this year for the package, especially considering most Cowboys games end up on television anyways. Now, I may regret this. I may just pay for the half season. Not sure. I know I will miss it, but it is really expensive. It is even worse if you have high def. I wish they would make it a bit more affordable. Things aren’t good right now/
