Assignment 2-1: Written Weekly Analysis

All I have to say is a new Fantasy Football season is now underway. This equals many late nights of rushing to get homework done because I have spent all of precious my time adjusting my rosters for the week. The dishes will be stacked up, the trash won’t get taken out, and nothing will get checked off the honey-do-list till this season is over. My productivity at work will be cut in half because Fantasy Football is the topic of discussion above all lesser important things. Fantasy Football is an addiction and there is nothing that can be done about it; you’re just lucky enough to get a break from February to August.
Fantasy Football has become a part of our popular culture over the past couple of years and it continues to grow in popularity. I have been addicted for going on four years now and get’s worse every year. The first year I played I was only in one league and this year I’m in four. The addiction keeps on getting worse with no end in sight. I know I make it sound like this horrible thing that will bring down society and that is definitely not the case here at all.
Fantasy Football is just absolute pure entertainment for the diehard sports fans and it doesn’t involve buying a $10 hotdog and a $7 beer. Three out of my four leagues I had to pay an entry fee to join but I have the chance to win a total of $550 at the end. That $55 I paid in is well worth the five months of fun I will get in return. Not all the time is spent adjusting the rosters; it is also spent chatting on the league message boards which can be entertaining alone.
On my next weekly analysis I will explain the intricate science of Fantasy Football and how it all works.
