4 Different Types of Fantasy Football Players

Fantasy football. It's a sport that demands the highest of commitment, with each week determining who has elusive bragging rights. If you take the time to look around your league however, you may find that you've noticed a couple of these different types of fantasy football players.

Mr. Serious

This is the guy who participated in over a dozen mock drafts to prepare for your league's draft. He's in four other leagues as well, playing for money in all of them. He leads your league in total points, finishes the regular season with the best record, and then subsequently chokes in the playoffs.

The Homer

His starting lineup consists of Ben Roethlisberger, Le'Veon Bell, DeAngelo Williams, Antonio Brown, Markus Wheaton, Jesse James, the Pittsburgh defense/special teams, and Chris Boswell. His team name is something along the lines of "For Whom Le' Bell Tolls" and his avatar is a Steeler logo. It's not that he's smart or a good player, it's just that he's at the very least mildly annoying.

The Newbie

This dude has virtually never played before. He drafts a kicker in the fourth round and asks if the retired Peyton Manning is still available. He forgets to set his lineup after like the fifth game and doesn't even log back into his account after that. Yet somehow, this idiot might have a better record than you.

The Guy Who Has a Horseshoe Up His Ass

Screw this guy. He's the dude who had David Johnson fall to him late in the first round and turned around and drafted Julio Jones in the second. He picked up Devontae Booker a week ago for no reason and Booker just so happens to be the top Denver running back this week. He plays every opposing team when their best players are on byes, sneaks into the playoffs, and rides one or two players to a league championship.

So, there you go, you have any of these in your league?

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
