It’s already better than T.O.’s reality show. FX is developing a comedy about guys in a fantasy football league called “The League.” Key quote from the pilot: “God bless fantasy football. There are many things a man can do with his time. This is better than those things.” We like it already.
So wait, why is there a picture of Jesus playing football here? Who’s askin’? You got a problem with our Lord and Savior playing football? I didn’t think so.

Wait so is that other kid trying to tackle Jesus? Kurt Warner does not approve.

Guys sitting around playing fantasy football? As a TV show? Yes! Finally, The “Sex and the City” male adaptation I’ve been waiting for.
Can’t wait for the Very Special sweeps week episode in which the guy makes a last second lineup change, and it backfires. I smell Emmy.

CC, this was definitely a post done 1) due to insomnia 2) to catch the beginning of the Open in Scotland or 3) WTF man, it wasn’t even 3 am!

The problem with this picture is this Jesus isn’t wearing purple….and is white.

@Slideshow Bob:
Looks more like a reach around to me. And Jeff Garcia most definitely approves.

Man, that is taking one for the KSK team! And, I hope the 4000 word stories were literate.

I had an aunt that had a whole “Jesus sports pack” set of statues. J.C. be playin soccer and baseball as well. We’d always reposition them so that jesus was hittin a downwd kid with the bat (or vice-versa, I don’t remember who had the bat) or something of that nature.

What would Jesus do? Jesus would hit you right in the MOUTH.

You can’t arm-tackle the King of Kings.

@TheHammerIsMyPenis: “Sex Cannon and the City”? I smell a sitcom. And by a sitcom, I mean a lot of pregnancies.

If I draft Jesus in the first round, does that guarantee me victory… or at least a wild card?
I just posted an alternative fantasy league on my site. sportschump.net.
I’d love to exchange blogrolls if you’re interested.
