Yes, we are 5 months or so away from the Lost season 6 premiere. There are new shows premiering over the next two weeks and while I’m exciting for shows : Flash Forward, V, Criminal Minds, Curb your Enthusiasm, Fringe and Law and Order, I’m missing Lost. But I’m a huge football fan so I have more than enough TV enjoyment to get me through till January.
I’ve been a frequent fantasy football player since 1991. What is Fantasy football? It’s a fun statistical league where you draft NFL players and based on what they do each week, you get points. Each week if your players score more points than your opponent, you win. The top teams make the playoffs and you compete until there is one champion. It’s a real fun way to follow and enjoy football. I’m a huge Dallas Cowboys fan, but if I draft a player that plays for Cincinnati, I’ll now be interested in watching that game. So it gives you a chance to enjoy games you normally would not, allows you to have some fun with friends, and it’s just plain exciting!
I was approached by Mr. Payne last year to play in a Lost league. I of course said yes and I am a part of the Lost Fantasy league. Not everyone is a Lost podcaster, but we got some names you will recognize.

Week 1 results are in the books and there were some battles. I was down 20 points to Mr. Payne going into Monday night, and Wes Welker and the Chargers defense came through. Also, Ryan’s team made a trade before the season, but his line up didn’t have a third wide reciever, so they gave him an invalid roster and no points (we start a QB, 2 RB, 3 WR, TE, K, DEFENSE.). It’s too bad because he has Drew Brees, QB for the Saints, who threw for 6 tds on Sunday vs the Lions.
I will give reports on the league during the end of the Lost Revisited Now podcasts. The fanatsy league is played for free using NFL.COM Here are the results for week 1 :
