Well it's almost that time again for me to surrender the computer for the day so DH can track our fantasy football teams online.

I might have one more precious hour on the computer this morning. :-(

Have fun today ladies & save some samples for me!

If he loves Football, then he will love this one! you have to sign up at the beginning of the season, and for $14.95 you get 2 picks each week, once you play a team you cannot play that team for the rest of the season...so you have to plan your strategy...you want to keep the teams that you feel are going to the play offs......once you play, you are hooked, you can see how many have been eliminated and how many are still in it...along with the list of everyone who is in it by there user names, and the teams they have already used....lots of fun! My BIL is already out this season.....but we still have 1 pick!!

On days that there is football on, we do nothing else. Especially if it's the Chicago Bears playing!

I am partial to the Bears also, because I am from Chicago!! GO BEARS! but my husband is a DIE hard Raiders fan....last year I thought he was done with them, he even took the decal off the back window of the SUV...said they did not deserve to be on there...this year he put a Raiders license plate on the front of the car! I don't say anything about his "Raiders" (What can you say about the worst team in Football!)...simple pleasures.....lol

I'll give you a clue as to how crazy my husband is about the Bears, he has the Bears "C" logo tattooed on his arm! We also have a whole room in our house with all Chicago Bears memoribillia. It's actually really nice stuff, so I don't complain. We have been on the waiting list for season tickets for years. This year I think we only moved up like 20 spots!

Yeah, you beat us on the memoribillia....no tatoos, but he does have shirts, hats, Jacket, Flannel lounge Pants, license plates, BBQ cover with the Raiders plastered on it, a Coffee Pot type thermos thing with the Raiders logo.....key chain.....thankfully no room full of stuff, lol

Yes of course we watched the game. It was a great game! That Devin Hester is spectacular. I guess since college he has been a fantastic punt returner. If you go on his website they have like a video of all his returns!

GO BEARS!!!!!!!!!!

By the way the Chicago Bears fight song "Bear Down CHicago Bears" was the song we had at our wedding when they introduced us after the ceremony. We came in wearing Bears jerseys, Pro-Bowl autographed jerseys none the less.
