For years I mocked my friends and walked away whenever the conversation came up. I am now in my 3rd year and can't get enough

Do you play? How many teams in your league? How is your squad looking this year?

If no, why not?

Here is my squad:
QB Eli Manning
WR Larry Fitzgerald
WR Derik Mason
RB Cadilac Williams
TE Alge Crumpler
WR/RB Corey Dillon
K Adam Vinatieri
Defense - Pittsburgh
Bench: Lavernius Coles, Brett Favre, Chris Brown, Dallas Clark, Brandon Lloyd, & the Jacksonville D

I dropped out of my league last year. It was wrecking my sundays. I would constantly be checking games online to see how my players were doing.

It is addicting for sure. Still belong to a fantasy baseball league, but thats just to add some excitement to baseball. The season is just too damn long to pay attention the whole time.

I here you on that one. I would sit around on Sundays waiting for my fantasy stats to update.

The other sad thing about fantasy is when you start rooting against your favorite team because you have the RB on the other squad. I plan on skiing more Sundays than Saturdays this season. Maybe I can get my problem in check...

Rooting against your favorite team thats hard.. I found when i did like to gamble on games, i would be on the other team that was playing mine, that way i was sorta happy no matter what the outcome.

I found on my fantasy baseball team that I had (my pitchers) Mussina and Schilling against each other more than once. I always hoped for 1-0 game, sox on top. umm...it didn't always go that way.

Don't play because I'm not a football fan. I've played some form of fantasy baseball for the last 10 years or so though, I'd figure. I have two teams this season, both head-to-head leagues with some of the same people. In one league I came in 2nd of 12 and now it's the playoffs, and in the other I was 9th out of 14 (ugh) and missed the playoffs. Unfortunately the latter league was the pay league. Oh well.
