Welcome back to the second season of Creative Misfortune! What is Creative Misfortune you ask?
For those of you new to these pages, Creative Misfortune, which finds its inspiration from the German phrase Schadenfreude, is all about taking your game to the next level in a creative way that brings misfortune to your opponents.
Here, at The Art of Creative Misfortune, we talk about football played by the great and infamous teams that make up the National Football League. Other blogs and sports pages will unduly praise teams within the league, while always ripping select others, despite their victories. Here every team will be called to task for their misfortune, or lack thereof.
Upon these pages, sarcasm will be read, games will be predicted, success and failure by each team will be reflected in weekly power rankings and the second annual, alternate-reality Creative Misfortune "If Real Football Used Fantasy Scoring..." season will crown its Fantasy Bowl II champion. Will the New York Giants be able to defend their title or will the numbers work against them as the 2011 season plays itself out?
Come and enjoy the football season along with the rest of us. It’s been a long summer filled with the uncertainty of the NFL lockout, but now that the football powers-that-be have wisely chosen not to kill the golden goose, real games are just around the corner.
Kick back, get your popcorn ready... and if you stick around and find that your beloved team is skewered for its lack of creativity on any given Sunday, take heart, because your team will not be the only one basking in misfortune’s glory!
