Fantasy Shopping

"I never thought I would say this, but Adrian Peterson is not a first round draft pick." "Dude, some dude just dropped Ryan Fitzpatrick; you need to pick him up." "I'm so stressed because I haven't had time to research for my draft; I've just been SOO busy!" "I'm not investing anything in Mike Sims Walker ... he's garbage." "He doesn't produce every game." "Greg Little is no Calvin Johnson." "It's pretty risky."

 Quotes from my husband during Fantasy Football season, and it's only August.

It's really not that sad that I can recite these comments by heart because he has recited them to approximately seventy on his friends on the phone. He talks Fantasy Football in his sleep. I'll admit, I did try to buy one of his most desired players for his birthday because he didn't have time to tell me what he wanted for a 'real' birthday present ... he was too busy researching for his draft.



Since, I'm pretty much an expert at watching/listening to Fantasy Football comments, I created Fantasy Shopping. I am pretty sure that I have invented an Internet gold mine. In a nutshell, it is Fantasy Football for women, well at least it is based on that premise. I created a game to correspond with one of my most favorite seasons. Besides fashion week, every fashion guru lives and breathes for awards season. I know it’s premature, but I need to get my idea out there so that people will sign up by the time awards season rolls around. I'm confident that Joan will be knocking on my door because she thinks what I already know - this would make a great segment on Fashion Police.

Warning: Don't steal my invention, I know people ... I'm Italian

I still have to tweak the game and come up with a flashy name, but I really think I am on to something. Basically you and your friends all get together with a bottle of wine and draft three designers and five celebs to be on your team. You score points when celebrities announce that they are wearing your designer (shoes, jewelry, dresses, handbags) at any given awards show. If your chosen celebrities topped the best dressed list, then you score points. Consequently you are also docked points if your designer or celebrity lands on the worst dressed list.

Watch out! I'm pretty sure I am about to become a bazillionaire off of this game. You can thank me later when you are having the time of your life.
