Don't Try This at Home

Boytalk Nation:

As fall approaches, so does sweatshirt season.  Never, under any circumstances, should you be caught with your hoodie tied around your waist (as seen above).  Either wear it or don't wear it.  None of this "halfway" business will be tolerated.  Following this rule will help you avoid looking like a complete dork during this season.

Fantasy Football Guide

The start of the NFL season means three things:

1) It's time to make sure your "mute" button is functioning properly so that it can be utilized every time Shannon Sharpe mumbles something incoherent on your television.

2) Fantasy Football begins.

  - A few rules and  facts about fantasy football -

- If you have more than 3 teams, you take fantasy football too seriously and need to get a life.  Similarly, if you spend hours a day writing stuff for a blog that no one reads, you also should consider getting a life.

- Real-life teams are more important than your fantasy team.  This, for example, is unacceptable - "Well I don't care how bad my (insert team nickname here) are doing... I'm in first place in my fantasy keeper league!"

- If your team name is lame, your team will be too.  These names aren't lame, which means these teams will be successful ------>  "RomoWittenHisPants" ... "Somewhere Over Dwayne Bowe" ... "Albert Hayneworthless" etc.

- Don't cry and whine about an injury to a player on your team, as if you sustained the injury yourself.

- Lastly, if you lose to a female in your league (if one exists) you should be thoroughly embarrassed and banned from fantasy football forever.

3) Finally, the start of the NFL season means that we are already one week into the College Football season.  Football on Saturdays > Football on Sundays.
