#1 Pick

With some pleasure, I learned that our fantasy football team has the #1 pick this year. Tomorrow my buddy and I will get together with the other Real Men of Genius and we’ll draft the players into the 2006 Flying Spaghetti Monsters.

It’s a scoring-only league, so running backs, while important, are less important than quarterbacks. No one scores more points than elite QB’s, of which I calculate there are eight. Two stand out above the others, so the only question anyone will have is which of the two we will pick. Here’s a hint: the Twenty-Sixth Amendment.
