Cville Rainbows Make the Playoffs

Posted by Brenna Malmberg

Fantasy Football - Cville Rainbows

I am ranked No. 2 in the league!

It's playoff time for my fantasy football team, and the gang is ranked No. 2 in the league. All my knowledge of those RBs and WRs is paying off. (I abbreviate because I am not sure what all those acronyms mean.) Like I was saying … my football prowess shines in our little six-person league. This is my first fantasy football team, and I am pretty proud of our showing so far, especially since my competitors are all boys.

For the next two weeks, I play Cole for the championship spot. Fingers crossed that my team, the Cville Rainbows, keeps on scoring. So far tonight, Dez and Alshon have scored 23 points. Touchdown Bears!

My team went on a tear, scoring the most points in the last regular season game.

No. 1 in the West, even though I live on the East Coast. Confusing, I know.

If you were wondering about my team's name, the Cville Rainbows, it comes from my player Marshawn Lynch. Apparently he is known for being awesome and everything, but before the draft, I only knew him as the Skittles man. Why? Because he loves to munch on the rainbow candies on the sideline. How cool is he‽ Turns out ESPN did a little research on the effect Skittles have on him, and science says they could contribute to his Beast Mode. Watch and learn for yourself. The best part start at 1:10.

If you are in a fantasy league, I'd love to hear how you are doing — unless you are in mine, than I don't want to hear anything about your stinking team and its stinking points. Go, Rainbows!
