FF Week 1 Stats

Fall is here, which means that the weather is cooling off, my audits are starting to scramble into high gear since busy season is right around the corner (and so my stress level is starting to rapidly increase), but most importantly…FOOTBALL IS BACK!! I am not by any means a football expert, and everyone knows I am a total klutz and would be a danger to myself and others if I were to even try and play football, but I do love watching the NFL and playing God with my fantasy football team. I actually won this week (which is more than I can say for the ‘Skins), and posted 100+ points! That is a huge improvement over last year, when I picked a kicker and defense first. Before you conclude that I am total moron or Al Davis-level insane for picking those positions first, I just didn’t fully understand how the draft worked then and assumed that the system would fill each position in order (i.e. QB, WR, RB, etc). I learned my lesson, got up to speed on how it's supposed to be done this year, even did a mock draft, and ended up picking a pretty solid team…or at least it was this week!

In honor of the start of the regular season, here are my stats from fantasy football (and other randomness) for the week (well, technically, the last 4 weeks):

• Approx. points racked up in Week 1 of FF: 113
• Cowboys on my FF team: 0 (out of principle)
• Redskins on my FF team: 0 (out of a desire to win, for a change)
• Training sessions taught during this year’s instructor rotation program: 4
• Cities visited for training: 4
• Number of times I went to Capogiro in Philly last week for gelato: 2
• Flavors of gelato sampled at Capogiro: 4 (and no, I did not get 4 cups of gelato…there were 2 flavs in each small cup…I’m not that much of a fatty!)
• Staff who attended happy hour after training in Philly last week: 30
• Regrettable incidents that occurred during and after the Philly happy hour last week involving certain staff: You’ll never know (pleading the 5th here to protect the innocent)
• Cities I visited yesterday: 3 (started in Secaucus, then flew to Miami, then flew home to Baltimore)
• Mojitos consumed at dinner last night in Miami: 2
• Miles I ran last week: 0
• Miles I have to run at this Sunday’s race: 5
• Likelihood that my time is going to suck at this Sunday’s race: 99.9%
