As I type, SLM is at his boss' house for his "work draft" for Fantasy Football. This is some type of competition where grown men spend weeks/months researching NFL players in each position from every team in the NFL. Then, these grown men get together with some beer and snacks and "draft" their DREAM TEAM of NFL players. They go through rounds to pick their favorites and hopefully create their perfect team of NFL mad men. It doesn't seem so bad, except, these grown men actually create EXCEL spreadsheets of the players' name, birthday, college, position, BYE week, weight, height, and probably SSN. It is pathetic. I mean, seriously, these grown men have lives to get back to, but they stay up to the wee hours of the night "drafting" their men, whom, by the way, they refer to by first names as if they are BFFs with these players. They go on BRO DATES just to discuss the players - LIKE THEY KNOW THEM - YOU DO NOT KNOW THEM AND NEVER WILL. Then, after SLM researches his precious little football men, he plays MADDEN - which is a VIDEO GAME dedicated to this nonsense. He screams at the TV about plays that went awol when he is the one controlling the JOYSTICK - COME ON!!!
I compared this to what it would be like if females did this to SLM last night and he thought I was absolutely CRAZY. This is what I came up with. I was trying to make a point about how RIDIC it is that he does this and so do his friends. I mean, don't get me wrong, I love the fact that he is passionate about something and finds something to fill up his time (ALL of his time) and that he found people to share this passion with. HOWEVER, it is taking over my life and I can't take it.
So, IF I were to create my own "FANTASY TEAM OF CELEBS" this is what it would be like for females. We would argue over which HOTTIE, and which SLUT we wanted. We would pick the best DRESSER, the best MOM, the best ACTRESS, the coolest CELEB, etc. My team would consist of the following CELEBRITIES:
The HOTTIE: Ashley Olsen
The FRIEND: Jennifer Aniston
The SLUT: Paris Hilton
The Best DRESSER: Lauren Conrad
The Best Mom: Heidi Klum/Katie Holmes
The Best Actress: Sandra Bullock
The Coolest CELEB: Ellen DeGeneres
Isn't this ridic? OMG, if all I talked about NON-STOP was my "FANTASY TEAM OF CELEBS" SLM would break up with me ...
