FOOTBALL? WHAT FOOTBALL?

I was asked by a friend about a month ago if I wanted to join a fantasy football league. My response was "Thanks, but I can't make the time to follow the NFL and I've never been very good at caring much." Add to that my lame memory and the fact that I have too many names I don't know in my student ministry to justify knowing the names of those on NFL jerseys better and you have a recipe for lameness.

I still feel like a schmuck for not being able to say yes.

Sadly, the reality is my lack of football time is ridiculously true for me this season. I really enjoy watching the games. But it's the second week of the season (I think) and I have not even watched 5 minutes of a game. I've been slammed all day for the past 2 Sundays and my Monday nights are spent in seminary this quarter. I'm gonna have to free up some Sunday night with a beer and some chips before the superbowl though.
