I am a big NFL football fan and manage two fantasy football teams. This is my first year playing fantasy football, actually...I adore it. I have one team in a girls league at work and another with my dad, uncles, cousins, etc. In both leagues, my team name is the Fluffy Bunnies.
First of all, I can't take credit for the team name. My brother, Brian, came up with this long ago. In my humble opinion, I think this name is brilliant. Who expects the Fluffy Bunnies to rip them apart? Even if it's the killer bunny from Monty Python (see Exhibit A), can he really take on Peyton Manning or Donovan McNabb?
Well, that doesn't much concern me, because Peyton and Donovan are Fluffy Bunnies at the helms of my two teams. A Manning girl at heart, I picked Eli over Ben - even though Ben is a fellow Miamian! Jay and Trent are my other backups.
Now that I've gushed about the Bunnies, I'll get to my point...I love watching NFL football, so I love a Thursday game (since I have DVR to record The Office). This game is as good as Monday Night - it's primetime without other NFL games to compete...if it's on TV. Last Thursday I was pumped to watch a great matchup and it wasn't on! I hate that it was limited to the recap on ESPN.
I tend to keep track of deadlines, so I'm a fan of the Thursday lineup deadline nowadays. I hope that a few competitor fantasy footballers will fall prey to the Thursday deadline...and the Fluffy Bunnies.
