"FacebookPinterest\n\nIt was a rainy day in March, well no, actually it was like three weeks ago, but that sounds better... The rain is necessary, I think. So it was a rainy day in July and a bunch of us were hunkered down somewhere talking football. We discussed doing a fantasy league with a few of our compatriots from the industry, maybe a few others... it would be a fun way to spend the fall: talking shit, head-to-head match-ups, a little green on the line, whatever. (Maybe we'd even discuss a bit of biz on the message board.) Then Jace Lipstein from Grungy Gentleman (who is consistently trying to top his last stunt) proposed something slightly more relevant: a league composed solely of creative folks in the menswear industry. We'd have the designers, the editors, the creative directors, the retailers, the filmmakers, the photogs and for posterity and the female vote, I suppose we'd add a male model or two... fine.\n\nWell emails went out, teams came in and before we knew it, we had a league of extraordinary gentlemen (you may have even heard of a few of them), and one kick-ass lady. Bets are down. Draft is next week. Are you ready for some, er, menswear football?!\n\nLet's meet the teams...\n\nFacebookPinterest\n\nName(s): Nic Screws\n\n Team name: gatoRigs\n\n Reppin: Esquire Magazine\n\n Who's your NFL team: New England Patriots\n\n Favorite Sunday activity: day drinking\n\n Favorite football snack: tater tots\n\n What are you wearing when you watch: eye black...
