To be fair to Fred Jackson's wife, no one picked her husband very high in their fantasy football draft this year. He's good and all. But, he plays in Buffalo, a city that hasn't exactly been great when it comes to football in recent years. That being said, how can you not draft your own husband if you've got a fantasy football team?! Recently, Jackson revealed that she opted to take Falcons running back Michael Turner over him before finally picking him up in the fifth round of her draft.

"[I told her] I'm not going to continue to sit here if you're skipping over me in these rounds," he said. "If you don't take me, I'm going to call your brother and tell him to pick me up."

She eventually did pick him up. But, sheesh! Can't a guy get a little fantasy love in his own damn house? [via Pro Football Talk]
