Just Getting Started

MizzInkredible
Welcome to my world.  A "Bizarro" type of place where everything is not always as it seems.  Guess that's why I refer to it as Organized Confusion- I am generally all over the place.  For instance, my big thing for the day has been Fantasy Football.  I am an avid football fan (Bears Nation, stand up) but, for the life of me, I could not understand the obsession with fantasy sports.  I've been looking for a hobby, so I decided this morning that I would join a fantasy league.  It is simple enough to join one- I went to NFL.com, clicked "Fantasy" and had a league home in 2 easy minutes.  That is where the simplicity ends.  I had to familiarize myself with the point system, prepare for the draft, decide on a team name... trust me, it's like having a second job.  I have pages of pre-draft rankings, cheat sheets, top ten sleeper reports, players to avoid reports, and draft strategies.  I have participated in 3 mock drafts to familiarize myself with the process- all of this on day one!!  And that, my friends, is how one becomes obsessed.  My team is the Midwest Blues, and my draft is on August 22.  Until then, I must immerse myself in this team building process.  I have got to eat, drink, sleep and breathe FOOTBALL.  All of this stems from a decision I made today while I was eating my Wheaties.  Organized Confusion- you never know what side of left field I'll come from.  Enjoy your stay!
