Fantasy football playoff season has arrived, and that means it’s time to separate the men from the boys.

I take fantasy football very seriously, and that’s probably why I’m in a great position in both of my leagues. I’ve got a first round bye as the number two seed in my family league, and I snuck in as the four seed in my 16 team office league.

Do you have any idea how hard it is to make a four team playoff in a 16 person league? I have an easier time scoring at the bars with women way out of my league, which is about as rare as a unicorn sighting these days. That is honestly easier than what I accomplished this season in fantasy football. I’d brag about it, but everybody knows I like to stay low key with my accomplishments. It’s the championship lifestyle.

I’d like to personally thank Melvin Gordon for putting my team on his back. Always great when Wisconsin guys look out for other Wisconsin guys. Real recognizes real.

Congratulations to everybody who is joining me in the playoffs this year. Every single one of you earned the right to be here. Now here’s a little motivation to get us through the next round.
