Wolfie - I think you need to relax. Certainly you're life wasn't a total shambles while you were running a fantasy league, now was it?
I just recently weeded out and sold about 200 CDs on the internet recently - but I'm not upset about buying them. It's just that I never listened to them and it was time to move on. |

The world relax is not in my vocab!

I don't mind fantasy sports, they just don't register that well. By the fact I joined the Netshrine Fantasy Football league at Yahoo! (shameless plug), it seems I'm mildly cool on returning to the fold of fantasy sports. I had a part in a local rotisserie team for 3 or so years, and admittedly there was not a huge amount of stuff you had to do in the league...you could only drop players twice a year and you only had to do stuff weekly, so it's not like I had to do a lot, but there are long-term contracts and salary caps and protected players to contend with...
Fantasy sports players tend to get a massively bad rap. Rick Reilly is responsible for most of it. (He should change his name to Dick...given I hate his guts, you can see the logic for it) It's just something fun to do...it's like a lot of things you do online...or offline for that matter. Maybe some take it too far, and there are things you can do that with, but the majority of fantasy/rotisserie players are just doing it for fun. If you saw them on the street, you couldn't tell they were playing fantasy sports. Not sure if there's an actual opinion in this thread, but I feel compelled to say something. |

Has this thread run aground like the Valdez, Cap'n Hazlewood?

Actually, it probably should be combined with this thread: http://www.netshrine.com/vbulletin2/...ead.php?t=8241
