ff football

in many ways i am your typical "girly" girl.
i love everything about fashion, home decor, pinterest
and in the past few years i have even learned to enjoy cooking.

but...
i'm different than most because i love football.
i actually enjoy watching the games.
i look forward to supporting my favorite teams and players!

this year our church formed a fantasy football league
encouraging husbands and wives to sign up and play for fun.
this has been a fun experiment, to say the least, because
two completely different worlds have collided and
it has been wonderful for me :)
i think our highest ranked team right now is owned by the pastor's wife!

i was undefeated and ranked first until the dreaded
terrible call heard 'round the world by the replacement refs!

i have green bay's defense, which meant the last call of the game
determined whether or not i won or lost based
on the number of points i already had for the week.
i ended up losing by one measly point...to a boy!


i know i should let it go and move on,
but this loss has troubled me ever since.
i am losing my confidence and i'm starting to second 
guess every move i make. i don't know which
players to put out on the field and which ones to bench.
i'm starting to stress out about it, as stupid as that sounds.


i'll never know every player's name, position,
and rule like my husband somehow does 
(though i will never forget that last play for as long as i live),
but i can understand how addicting and consuming
fantasy football can be.
it's wonderful!
