Default Do you play Fantasy Football?

Do you play in at least one fantasy football league each year?

1 FFL? What is this amateur hour? I haven't played in 1 FFL since Al Gore invented the internet.

Gave up fantasy football about 8 years ago. Could not stomach rooting for players on my team, against Dallas' interest.

Yep it can make it tougher but it can be done...won a couple of years even without ever having any skins, iggles or gnats players and also no stealers either.

I play for fun. I'd rather take an L in fantasy than root against my Cowboys.

I look at that as something good coming out of something bad.

Like if the Eagles have to beat us, hey....at least I get points.

We'll settle this with a good dust up.

What kind of sociology experiment are you working on Reality?

Kind of an odd time and place for such a poll.

I'm on to you.

I dunno. Could always root for a breakout day in a losing performance when your guys play against Dallas.

That's what I do.

Sure, McCoy. Rack up a ton of yards and score once or twice. Just make sure that's all the scoring your team does and most of it comes in garbage time during a blowout.

I think I was in 2 leagues last year. And I played ESPNs Gridiron Challenge which is pretty fun.

Took 2nd place in both leagues, 2nd the year before. I swear I would have taken 1st place in one of them if Murray wouldn't have broken his ankle.

Actually, I was also in a junker league I joined up with some board members here. Took 2nd there too.

Three 2nd place finishes.

Dallas against Philly during the Championship week really hurt too. Romo went out early, I think I had Robinson playing which meant I got about nothing from the both of them combined.

Rob Gronkowski single handedly took me there though so I can't be too mad.

I can't recall how many games I eeked out a win with him having a huge score.

Dude's my keeper next year. People look at me like I'm crazy but even if he scores half as much this year he'll be the 3rd highest scoring TE and I've found that TE can be a real deal breaker.

This; it's also the reason I don't bet on football anymore.

Religiously every year since the late 90's. Multiple $$$ league Championships. Just have to understand the league scoring system for a successful season.

Yeah I could never understand that...cause if you want to win at Fantasy Football that is going to happen at some point.

No offense to anyone, but I always thought it was too dorky to play. I never got into it at ALL. Also, I'd never do well because there wouldn't be a SINGLE gina, deadskin, egirl, fudge-packer, 'aint, or STEALer on my team.

When you want to win a game, you have to teach. When you lose a game, you have to learn.

I waited until the year after Gore invented the internet to quit FFL.
