Stevie Johnson decided to take the rather strange concept of fantasy football (hey, let’s make imaginary teams out of real players and “compete” against each other using arbitrarily assigned scoring methods!) and bring it to the average workplace.
I drafted many of you to my fantasy work team so make sure to grab me some points today at your workplace. Don't let me down.

The resulting Twitter exchanges proved a couple of things. First, people should lay off NFL players for not getting them a certain amount of fantasy points in a week. The players have enough to worry about without having to deal with people’s shitty fantasy drafts. Second, workplace fantasy drafts actually sound fun. At the very least, Stevie Johnson may have a future in HR or as a workplace motivator.
Yess! Need those points. Be smooth SW “@ShaunWyman: @StevieJohnson13 Booked 3 guests today. Each one work 5 points for you. BOOM.”
