Update 1/31/13: Make sure to check out Christians in Super Bowl XLVII for an in-depth look at over 55 Christian athletes!
So I’m playing fantasy football for the first time ever and, I have to say, it’s not near as hard as I thought it would be! Granted, I spent two weeks prior to our draft researching players, organizing spreadsheets and asking every guy I ran into if he had any advice – but, when the time came to pick my players, I felt really confident. I had a plan. Now, outside of the Steelers (go Pittsburgh!) I didn’t really know who anyone was, but: I had a general drafting strategy (in hindsight, I should’ve stocked up on more running backs earlier!), I took advantage of some technical tips (log-in when the draft opens an hour early and drag all of the players you want into the “auto-select” box – that way, when the time comes to pick, you remember your plan and your nerves don’t get the best of you!) and I knew I didn’t want Reggie Bush. Because he broke up with Kim Kardashian. And that is not ok with me.
Now, heading into Week Six, I’m having a lot of fun. I’ve won two, lost three (give me a break: Brady’s my QB and I think it took him a couple weeks to realize the season started) and I’m feeling pretty good about my next match-up. Which frees up a little bit of time to think about more important stuff, like: faith, Christian athletes and that infamous tweet from Tim Tebow about the 666th game of Monday night football.
