Oh, boy, you wanna talk about that Game of Thrones fantasy football, huh? Well, I heard some folks talkin’ ’bout it down at the market. Sounds like a real hootenanny. They say it’s like that football game, but with all them kings and queens and dragons and whatnot from that show, Game of Thrones. You know, the one with the little fella and the mean blonde girl?
What in tarnation is this Game of Thrones Fantasy Football?
Well, from what I gather, you pick your own team. But instead of them football players, you pick characters from that show. Like, you might pick that Jon Snow fella, or that dragon lady, Daenerys. And then you see how they do in the show. It’s like bettin’, but not really. It’s just for fun, you see. I think it’s a fun game. If I understand it right.
And get this – you can even name your team somethin’ funny! I heard one fella named his team “The White Walkers.” Ain’t that a knee-slapper? And another one called his team “Hodor’s Door Holders.” Gets me every time! Sounds like a real fun time, this Game of Thrones fantasy football thing.
Pickin’ Your Team, They Call It
- That Jon Snow, he seems like a good one. Strong and brave. He’d probably get you lots of points.
- And that dragon lady, Daenerys. She’s got them dragons! Bet they’re worth a whole heap of points.
- That little fella, Tyrion. He’s a smart one. Might be good for some kind of strategy or somethin’.
- That big lady, Brienne. She’s a fighter, that’s for sure.
- And don’t forget that sneaky one, Littlefinger. He’s always got somethin’ up his sleeve.
Now I heard some folks sayin’ it is better than regular fantasy football. I don’t know much about regular fantasy football. But they make it sound like such a big deal. They make their own team of NFL players. The big strong football players, you see. They talk about some draft thing. Like they are pickin’ for war. They pick a quarterback, some runnin’ backs, some wide receivers, a tight end and a flex. Whatever those are. Sounds complicated to me. And somethin’ called a defense. I guess that’s like the wall in the show, maybe?
But, you ain’t gotta pick just them main folks, you see. You can pick any of ’em! That scary lady with the red hair, Melisandre. Or that wild girl, Arya. Even that big ol’ giant, Wun Wun! You can pick whoever you think is gonna do good in the show.
Playin’ with Friends, I Reckon
This game is somethin’ you do with your friends. Like a little club. You all pick your teams, and then you see who’s team does the best. The winner, I reckon, gets to brag all season long. It is like king of the hill, but with Game of Thrones fantasy football.
It sounds like a right good time, especially if you like that Game of Thrones show. And even if you don’t, it might be fun to try. You might even learn somethin’ about them characters. Like how that Jaime fella only has one hand. Or how that Cersei lady is meaner than a rattlesnake.
Why Folks Like It, I Suppose
I guess folks like this Game of Thrones fantasy football because it makes watchin’ the show even more fun. You got somethin’ to root for, you see. You want your team to do good. It’s like havin’ a horse in the race.
And it’s somethin’ to talk about with your friends. You can argue about who’s the best character. Or complain when your favorite character does somethin’ stupid. It’s a good way to pass the time, I reckon. I heard them call it a “league”. Like they are some kind of big shots. They even talk about it in the internet.
Plus, it’s just plain fun to pretend. You get to be like a king or queen, pickin’ your champions. And you get to make up silly names for your team. What’s not to like?
Give It a Try, Maybe?
So, if you’re lookin’ for somethin’ new to do, maybe give this Game of Thrones fantasy football a try. It might be a hoot. And who knows, you might even win. Just don’t go bettin’ your farm on it, you hear? It’s just a game, after all.
And if you do play, let me know how it goes. I’m curious to see if that Jon Snow fella is as good as everyone says he is. Or if them dragons really are worth all them points. And maybe, just maybe, I’ll even try it myself. Though I don’t know who I’d pick. Maybe that Hodor fella. He seems like a nice enough giant, don’t he? He can hold the door, hold the points. Ha.
Anyways, I hope I’m makin’ sense. This whole thing is kinda new to me. But it sounds like a lot of fun. And who knows, maybe next year, we’ll all be playin’ Game of Thrones fantasy football. Just picture it! A whole bunch of folks, all yellin’ and hollerin’ about dragons and white walkers and who’s gonna sit on that iron throne. Now that’s what I call entertainment!
I’ll tell you, I heard lots of people talkin’ about Game of Thrones fantasy football. Some folks take it real serious, you know. Like it’s a matter of life and death. They study them characters like they’re studyin’ for a big test. They know all their names and all their stories. It’s somethin’ else, I tell ya.
