🏈 Sportsing, Pride, & 🙏 A Huge ASK!!! 🏈
First I'd like to say a Ginormous Thank You to everyone that left comments on my last post. I read every comment and you made me feel so accepted and like I wasn't alone. Seriously, you didn't have to take the time to read it or comment but thank you so much for all your uplifting and healing words.
I wasn't going to write but once a week, but I am left with no choice but to turn to you for help. My pride is at stake!
Anybody trash talk so much only to be slapped in the face by your own poor choices? My 20 Year old son-James, my husband-Joe and my Father in Law-Mike, have been in a fantasy football league for as long as I can remember. Until just recently they would fly to Oklahoma for their draft. To say fantasy football is serious business in my house is an understatement. It’s ESPN nonstop, mock drafts and faces glued to phones checking player stats.
I felt left out and asked if I could join this year since they had an open spot. My strategy was simple. I pulled 9th pick and I would draft the best of who was left with the secondary criteria of if I liked their outfits or not. Some people call them uniforms, I call them outfits to irritate the menfolk. If I was still stuck, I used my entire 2 minutes discussing who had the kindest smile. It was great fun! I may have also spent the time I wasn’t ‘on deck’ discussing which one of my candles I was going to light to prove my superiority. Of course I chose All I Do Is Win Infused With The Tears Of My Opponents.
I even said I was gonna hit Costco to buy Kleenex in bulk for the opening weekend so they would have something to mop up the tears. Here’s what I didn’t know. Yahoo Sports sends a report card after the draft to grade your cunning and skill. Below is my report card.
Sooo…yeah….I changed my team name to RecipeForDisaster and thought I’d share the results of the last two weeks.
And... how I am doing so far this week.
Here’s My Ask: Can one of you help me? I am currently tied for last place and if I lose this week, I WILL be last place. I can’t ask any of the sportsing guys in my life since they are all in the league. I really want to win a game!!! Like really bad! If I don’t end up in the playoffs, I have to hand-deliver (or ship) each person in the League a custom All I Do Is Win candle Infused With Lacie’s Tears. That will be so physically painful!
Can someone pretty please look at my line up this week and see if I should start anyone else for Sunday? I have up until like 9:45am PST to make changes to my players.
Go Sports & Stay Malicious (Even though I didn't and changed my team name to RecipeForDisaster)

Can’t help you with picks but if it helps your pride at all this is something I would 100% do. I accidentally picked the March Madness winner one year and man did I think I was the tits. Until literally every year since (at least 12 years running). Ask my husband if he’s a big enough man to take no joy in my defeats. (the answer is “no” by the way)

My husband is very invested and wants to know how your week went!

Play DK Metcalf- he did full practice and is going to play! Zack Moss should also be put in. I’m the only girl in my husband’s high school friends league and I’m 1-1 currently haha. Bench Marquise Brown for sure. He let me down last year.
Sarah
He also said move Marquise Brown to the bench since he’s probably not going to play and put in Adam Thielen – he’s consistent, working with a backup QB (but an experienced one, Andy Dalton) that will probably target him more than usual because he’s experienced.
