This weekend, my fantasy football team made it to our league championship game.  To those that play the game, and spend 15 or more weeks analyzing player stats, injuries, waiver wires and game notes, you understand that this is a significant lifetime achievement.  Not quite a marathon, but close.  To those of you who don’t play the game, or are married to, dating, or an innocent observer of someone who plays the game…. I know it’s a lot to put up with.   Thanks for your patience.  It really means a lot.  Anyway, I’m in the championship game.  And I beat 9 of my closest friends and family members to get here.  So today I gloat.  And on Sunday, I bring home the trophy.  Clear a spot on the shelf.

UPDATE:  I won, and I now have one of those beautiful bobblehead trophies sitting proudly on my desk….much to the chagrin of Rachel

Fantasy Football Trophy

Actual fantasy football trophy. (Not mine. I've never won)
