Sunday I watched football with friend and loyal reader Jon Biscoe, as well as his girlfriend, the Amy. We are all members of the same fantasy football league, and as we watched we discussed our chances in our week 7 match-ups.
“Steven Jackson is still out this week,” I said. Jon and the Amy nodded sagely.
“Defense wins championships,” said the Amy. She knows a lot about football for a vegan.
Later, as we munched on a tasty Indian tofu/rice dish that the Amy had made, we checked our scores.
“Frank is winning,,” said Jon.
“That disappoints me,” I said, “because I hate Frank.” Jon and the Amy nodded, sagely.
Hall-of-Fame-Quarterback-turned-FOX-Analyst Troy Aikman made an odd remark about a linebacker rushing the passer.
“Troy Aikman just said he was ‘coming on his backside,’” said Jon. “Do you believe Troy Aikman to be homosexual?”
“Perhaps,” said the Amy. I nodded sagely.
Jon and I read comic books.
A football player who had performed particularly successfully made the claim that he had done nothing-- that his performance should be attributed to God.
“If God is still available in our fantasy league I will draft him,” I said.
“You are stupid,” said Jon.
“You are fat,” I said.
“You are both fat and stupid,” said the Amy. “It’s because you drink too much beer.”
Jon and I nodded. Sagely.

That hurts more than you could imagine. (sniff)
I can imagine quite a lot, Frank. I no longer feel guilt or pain. Tell Herm and LaDainian for me.
i watched this with Kelsey and Lauren and I also commented on the sexual overtones of the commentator saying that the guy was "coming on his backside."
Also, the word verification that I had to enter in to post this comment was "hjrod." just thought i'd share.
