I play in one 16 team keeper league with a lot of "jelly beans" on the line and another 10 team dynasty league.
At that moment a voice came over me and said, Look up, get up, and don't ever give up. You tell everyone or anyone that has ever doubted, thought they did not measure up or wanted to quit, you tell them to look up, get up and don't ever give up. - Michael Irvin

Come on, man. If you don't enjoy it, that's fine, but let's try not to throw groundless insults at a whole category of people, OK?

I never have. Been invited to play FF on many occasions, but I've been resistant so far.

I've seen fans of other teams -- wearing other teams' gear -- coming over by me in a Sports Bar to watch a game Dallas was playing in, and their team wasn't, and watched them rooting for the Cowboys to score a TD ... but only by a certain player. I asked, what the h***? They told me that a certain Cowboys player was on their fantasy team. Yeah, they explained, they hated the Cowboys but had to root certain Cowboys players on because they were on their fantasy team.

Where was the exclusive team fan support? The pride? Seemed strange to me then, seems a strange way to go about things now. Maybe it's just me that doesn't get it and it's a brave new NFL fan world I don't quite connect with. IDK?

At one time I would play multiple teams in various leagues but quit a few years ago.

Seemed like a bit of a hassle trying to keep up with everything and it really sucked if you forgot about a mid week game and got your roster locked.

Also sucked if you had a high profile player on your team go down due to injury and not having much option to replace them due to a large number of teams in your league.

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

exactly right if its not about the cowboys...than it hold little interest and never would I put myself in a position to be happy about M.Vick scoring a TD for the eagles<-----can anyone truly justify that.
Three passions, simple but overwhelmingly strong, have governed my life: the longing for love, the search for knowledge, and unbearable pity for the suffering of mankind. These passions, like great winds, have blown me hither and thither, in a wayward course, over a great ocean of anguish, reaching to the very verge of despair....Bertrand Russell
