18 Thoughts Every First-Time Fantasy Football Player Has

Technical difficulties during the draft, having no idea what players to put in and take out, and projecting to lose week one and two are just a few occurrences that have happened during this fantasy football season, and it's only been two weeks. For newbies, like me, who are asked to join a fantasy football league--don't know why--these are some thoughts that have probably gone through your head...

1. When someone asks you if you want to join their league:

"It sounds like it could be fun."

2. When you realize you have no idea what you are doing:

"There's a draft?"

3. When you have to start researching players on the day of the draft:

"Do you want him to have a high or low return rate?"

4. When you feel confident about some of the key players on your team:

"Jamal about that bass."

5. When the draft starts:

"Eric Decker is so hot."

6. When you have technical difficulties:



"I can't remember my Yahoo password."

7. When someone takes your top players:

"Well, looks like I'm picking up Reggie Bush."

8. When it is time for week one:

"Do I take him out if he is injured?"

9. When you forget to take out Le'Veon Bell during week one:

"It was only three-fourths of an ounce."

10. When someone says they will help you out:

"Here's my username and password, please help me."

11. When you lose week one to your younger sister:

"How?"

12. When the person helping you won't answer their phone:

"Hey it's me, I am just mildly confused...about everything."

13. When you see that you are projected to win:

"Thanks, Matt Ryan."

14. When you surprisingly know what time some of the games are playing:

"But I don't know what I'm watching for."

15. When you have some random guy at the bar do your lineup:

"So am I doing this right, or naw?"

16. When you win week two against your older brother:

"I don't know how that happened, but in your face."

17. When week three rolls around:


"Do I still keep him in?"

18. When you realize you just have no idea what you are doing:

"Am I able to drop out of the league?"

Good luck to all during this season... I think that is what you are supposed to say.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
