Conflicted


For anybody who doesn't know... I am a super HUGE football fan. Guess growing up with three brothers and a father did me in for it. I have my whole life been a Buffalo Bills fan (I know, I know). I can sit for hours and hours and watch it and never get bored. I absolutely love the game itself. Ryan thinks it's weird and doesn't get it. He doesn't think girls can be real football fans. And I'm not just a football fan, but a true fan of my favorite team. I would never give them up for anything, no real fan would. That's where my confliction comes in. I decided to do my own fantasy football team this year. I was all excited to go through the draft process and couldn't wait to start the fantasy season. Then it started and reality set in. And I started having fantasy players playing against Buffalo. Well, I surely wouldn't root for the other team to do well. But if they don't, my fantasy team suffers. Who am I supposed to root for then? Needless to say, I haven't been keeping up my fantasy team as well as I should. I think after this season, I'm just sticking with being a Buffalo Bills fan and leaving it at that.

How funny- I think I'm the polar opposite of you in this respect! I've always wanted MY own team to love & route on no matter what, but being from AZ- it's kind of tough ya' know? So, over the years, I've just developed a love for the game in general and for various players on the different teams. I think that's why I really got into Fantasy....before I had a baby that is! Haa
