Fantasy Football

What does this picture mean? I have no idea, but it came up in a Google search for fantasy football and I kind of liked it.

Fantasy football is a very important part of a mans life. Before there was fantasy football people only had an interest in one game a week, their favorite teams. Now that people have the ability to have their own team made up of players from all over the league, we can watch every game with a vested interest. This means you can spend the entire day Sunday on the couch with your laptop running real time scoring updates. This is a good thing. In fact this is the best thing to happen to Sundays since we found a church that has a coffee bar. I can't wait to watch those games together, and I really glad that you will never dirty your diaper or cry when football is on. Right?

Fantasy football teams are a great way for friends and family to keep in touch. A bunch of my buddies from college, and all of your uncles are in my league. Well, all of your uncles were in the league until I kicked your Uncle Gabe out. He is still bitter about this, and your mom's family has looked at me a bit different since this happened. I don't really care, he had it coming and really he did it to himself. Was he caught cheating, stealing money from the pot, or some other illegal activity? No. He didn't set his lineup 2 weeks in a row.

I know what you are thinking. Doesn't this seem a little heartless? Isn't there a chance that the situation could have been handled better? Isn't this kind of trivial to be stressing the family relationship over? The answer is yes to all. It was heartless of him to not set his lineup, he could have handled it better by fulfilling his duty to set it, and it was very immature of him to put me in that position.

Do I feel bad about kicking my own brother out of my fantasy football league? No, because I assume he must have been reaching out for help. He must have needed some tough love from a good brother and league commissioner. I think I probably have helped him grow in many ways. I just hope he has learned his lesson.

I just wonder when I will get my thank you card.
