It’s time for draft grades. And if I am handing out grades, that makes me the teacher and you are my students. I am a firm teacher who doesn’t waste time. Set down. Pencils out. Let’s get to work. Hanna’s Honeys: A Well, you could have just gotten Najee and probaby still have bounced out …
The MFL Draft Day Extravaganza ’21
Draft day is almost here and this year its going to be something special. We are in our 3rd year of our dynasty league, and the 9th year of the MFL (if you count DFL years). Can our League Champion Jake keep it together with his divine ability to play the wavier-wire? Will a bottom-feeder …
Jake Mattison: Official MFL Soccer Correspondent
I haven’t always been a fan of soccer. In 2013, I moved into the frat house (as I called it) with my brother’s friend Jarrod. After “Sailor Jerry” his own name for himself at the time (hence why I call him Jerry sometimes and why he is in my phone as Jerry) watched me play probably …

“Thank you for choosing my Wendy’s, this is Max. How can I help you?”
A short story about a day in the life of Max... It started as a normal Monday for me, went to work, did the shopping for the week at Sam’s Club and then back to the kitchen to prepared some of my world-famous Baby back ribs, “If it don’t fall of the bone itzzz free”. I …

What does Uncle Kracker, The 4th Grade and MFL Power Rankings have in common?? You’re 1,400 words and a half dozen grammatical errors away from finding out.
For the Talent Show at Spook Hill Elementary School in 2003 I was all lined up to sing a duet with a girl that I had a crush on name Vickie. It was a big time for me. Not only was I "liking girls" but I was also, for the first time ever, singing in …
I’m In For 2021 and You Should Be Too
You know the feeling… It’s that sinking feeling that all of that time you spent reading, studying, grinding over the past 6 months has been a gigantic waste of time. We all know the feeling. I want to convince you to keep playing fantasy football. Not because it’s worth your time (it is NOT) but for other …
The Game*, The Playoffs and The Great Lobo in the Sky
*Note From the Author: I want to spend this entire article listing the things I’d do/give for Michigan to beat Ohio State but at this point that just feels like a Letter to Lost Loves. So, you’re lucky cause I just deleted two thousand words about Jim Harbaugh… Jim Mora talking about the playoffs is …

Happy Thanksgiving & Welcome to the World of Chaos
Hanna and I have really grown out of the “watch shows together” phase of our relationship. Years ago, when I first started to notice her watching shows and movies without me, I was a little hurt. Now, I realize it’s the best for both of us (primarily because I just watch sports and the Simpsons). On the rare …

The years was 2007 but more importantly, it was the summer before I went into high school. Even though I had a very big personality, I had friends, I had, what I’d say, was a decently popular social life. I (like every fourteen-year-old ever) struggled with confidence. I struggled with feeling like I didn’t fit …

Week 8 picks, the proper use of the word “Tomfoolery” and the strange woman that grabbed me firmly yet gently.
It was a balmy night… about 72 very humid degrees. We had wondered around the entire place at least once; we finally got our drinks and we decided that we needed to get in line for an attraction. The attraction we decided on was "3D killer clowns" because you can’t attend “Screammagedon” and not go …
