Week 6: RIVALRY WEEK!!

The much hyped and anticipated Rivalry Week! 

Starting Line Up:
QB - RGIII
WR - Roddy White
WR - Mike Wallace
RB - Trent Richardson
RB - Michael Turner
TE - Tony Gonzalez
FLEX - Malcom Flyod
K - Justin Tucker
DEF - Cincinnati


Let's start with the beginning:
As you may know my rival is Beaus N Hoes managed by Alex (Bo)hanan. Bo and I happen to go way back. We've been in school together since 1st grade and we became friends not long after that. I have watched Bo grow up, literally, and he has had football in his life for a long time. In 8th grade the Steelers were playing the Patriots in the AFC championship game, and the Steelers were heavily favored. I told Bo I would bet him $1000 the Steelers would win, and he said no bet.... well the Steelers lost! And when I got to class (still furious about the loss) all Bo said to me was "Man, I should've made that bet" with a smirk on his face. Thus, a rivalry was born...

Today:
Bo and I remain great friends today, despite living with each other for 2 years in college  and watching countless match-ups between our favorite teams.. We have competed in fantasy leagues before and always enjoy the competition of trying to beat one another. I'm excited to have Bo as my rival to carry on a tradition for the years to come in the MFFL. 

As badly as I want to win this week, I must give my compliments to Bo. He has a powerful team to say the least and despite his surprising losing record, I know his team can blow up any given week, which is why I fear this match-up. 

Best of luck Bo! And may the Rivalry live on....
