Top Ten Reasons I HATE Football Season

I haven't posted a top ten list in a while...and MAN has this one been brewing!!

10. I have to pretend like I care about football...and let's face it...I don't have the time or energy for this nonsense anymore!

9. The 5 billion hour long Fantasy Football draft that consumes an entire weekend!!

8. Spending the next billion hours discussing who he did and did not pick in the Fantasy Football draft.

7. Having to watch EVERY SINGLE NFL game because at least one of his stupid picks are playing at ALL TIMES!!

6. Living in Texas and having to hear "Hook 'Em" or "Gig 'Em" shouted in the most inappropriate places (ie. the bathroom at church or the children's section of the library)

5. Skipping gleefully down the hall after putting the leeches to bed, only to find that BOTH the television AND the computer have been hijacked for football purposes.

4. Tip-toe-ing around a grumpy and unpleasant husband because the UofA football game isn't on one of the fifty BILLION channels we specially order just to watch UofA sports.

3. Tip-toe-ing around a grumpy and unpleasant husband because we live in the central time zone which means the UofA football game isn't on until 10:45pm.

2. Tip-toe-ing around a grumpy and unpleasant husband because Matt Scott can't hit a target if you served it to him on a platter and thus the UofA football team loses.

1. Getting into silly fights with said husband because I didn't follow #4, #3, or #2 closely enough!

How many more months of this do I have to endure?

You don't know how good you had it... I've got Hannah Montana to look forward to! And may I add #11 to my list...having to listen to Scott whine because he was supposed to beat you, but some player of yours had an unbelievable night...or something...anyway, there was a lot of whining!!

hey! . . . he got me into this Fantasy football . . . he needs to suck it up and live with it! It not my fault . . . he cold have had Drew Brees as his QB . . . and get a bazillion points each week. Tell him that . . . if you dare . . . that'd probably make #12
