so la commish was talking on the phone last night with a musician she met recently. he was telling her about his doctor's visit because he broke a finger playing touch football in central park last weekend. (hot) anyways, he tells her that his doctor says he may never play again.
this gets la commish going on a 5 minute long monologue about donavan mcnabb and his recent season-ending injury. then she realized, her musician plays a stringed instrument. and that his doctor was talking about not playing MUSIC again.
crickets.
la commish broods today; football was supposed to HELP her love life, not alienate those who might be a part of it!
"you look rather exotic. was your father a g.i.?"
putting that particular converastional gem aside, espn.com has an interesting article online about phantasy football and some NFL players' takes on it: (http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/columns/story?columnist=garber_greg&id=2684942)
la commish's qb peyton is written up as "the most successful fantasy quarterback. Through the first eight seasons of his career, he averaged better than 30 touchdown passes per season." whhheeeee!!!
as phantasy football becomes bigger and bigger, proponents cite it as a way for fans to get to know players on a more individual basis and a way to get people more involved in the game. opponents of ph-f however, complain that it breaks down team allegiance because fans are now more likely to cheer for would-be nemeses by virtue of their ph-f team. where la commish stands on the controversy: anything that will get her laid is a good, good thing.
sports illustrated published a fan letter several months back that described phantasy football as the pet rock of the new millenium. whoever wrote this obviously didn't have a phantasy qb who scores as much as petyon. now if la commish could only get him to score WITH her and not just FOR her....
la commish's phantasy position: between a rock and peyton's hard place.

this musician should support your phantasy effort instead of selfish insisting that you think about everything in musical terms. he should be just as devastated that me may never be able to play touch football again. peyton would never be so insensitive...
Had they been playing "real" football he probably would have only had a broken rib or ruptured spleen, Nothing career threatening. When will people learn the dangers of being scaredy cats.
