Football Frenzy

This year Wade and I joined in on the fantasy football frenzy. This is quite humorous as neither of us know jack shit about football or the players. Wade's sport of choice is motorcycle racing and mine is shopping (yes, shopping counts). During our draft party I chose the majority of my players because I liked their names. Very scientific, I know. Needless to say I am losing our league. Badly. I'm okay with this. Wade is doing a little better in 9th place (out of 12) but still not stellar. However it has gotten me more interested in the NFL. Before this season I only really paid attention to the Vikings but now I am cheering on the 49er's defense (which keep letting me down) and Green Bay's QB (who is my only good player on my team). I am vowing next year (if we do this again) to actually know a little bit about the players and who to pick versus just looking at who has the coolest names.

In other football news, we are heading down to Des Moines this weekend to go to Charlie's first ISU game. It is family weekend and that is appropriate since my family, Wade's family and Todd's family will all be in town for it. It should be a fun time and I'm looking forward to the tailgating. Let's hope Charlie likes football! Regardless she'll be rocking her ISU gear! Go State!
