What's dat? What's dat?

Last year's fantasy football is this year's impromptu lesson. Sean's old cheat sheet was sitting on the counter and the girls were fascinated.



Briar: What's that?

Me: QB.

Briar: What's that mean?

Me: Quarterback.

Briar: What's a quarterback?

Me: The guy who throws the football.

Ave: What's that?

Me: RB.

Ave: What's RB?

Me: Ummm, running back?

Briar: What's a running back?

Me: A player.

Suffice it to say the conversation went on for quite some time. I fear that they won't know their wide receivers from their, umm, from the other guys, if they are left to learn it from me. But tight ends? Oh tight ends they'll know ;)

Ha! Too cute.

The season hasn't even started and I am fantasy footballed out. Thankfully John'll have Luke to explain it all to who hopefully will get it and be interested!

But you stuck with it. I'm proud of ya, mom!

I have my fantasy football draft on Thursday, think I could get Sean to make me up one of those cheat sheets?
I tend to pick players who's names I like. What? Not a good strategy?

I also have a cheat sheet like that made up. I'm in two different leagues, so I have two different teams to remember! EEK! Yes, I'm the girl the lives for football season!!! I say there are two seasons, football season and waiting for football season. My little girl will be a little football girl, too!
