Anybody play fantasy sports?
by Ben Reilly Wed Sep 03, 2014 7:00 am
I've been doing it for years, started with baseball probably 10 years ago at least. Then I got into fantasy (gridiron) football, which I've also done for a number of years -- my team this year is projected to be the lowest scoring in my league! -- and did one year of fantasy National Hockey League, where I won the championship despite not knowing any but the most famous players 
This year in baseball I've struggled, but I'm probably going to make the playoffs as the fourth (last) seed. I actually enjoy the seasons in which my team does poorly better, because I have to do everything I can think of as the season goes on to make my team more competitive; it's more of a challenge that way.

I did last year - tbh I dint understand it and frankly it bores me and I didn't even go beyond the first half of the season
we've always played guess the score before in our family and thats how I prefer it.
its all a bit war gameish to me - strategies and stuff like then when really I'm watching them in their cute tight uniforms.

My brother's done fantasy Premiere League for a long time; I tried fantasy MLS this year but there was too much to keep up with.
I like fantasy baseball; it's kind of complex because you start a lot of players (way more than football). Football always seems a little bit of a letdown at the beginning of the season because they don't have games practically every day, like baseball does
