I think I played before & didn't look at my teams or nada.. This is my first year of actually looking @ lineups, etc... It's nothing wrong w/ playing or not playing but I find it fun since i'm on the cpu all day for work anyway so I have something other than The Coli/Twitter to do on my down time

betting on the games is more expensive, fantasy football, a $50 buy in lasts you the whole year..
but if money isn't a problem, then betting on games is the way to go for entertainment
is it a problem when you fukk with both?

Yeah, if you aint doin it for money, it's worthless. You also kinda gotta know at least one or two people in the league for it to be as fun as it can be.
I love it, but can see why some people would hate it. Some people be more into their fantasy team than their real team, and I can't get with that. I also can't get with people who bring up their team all the time. If I'm in a league with you, we can talk Fantasy. If you and I just met, I don't wanna hear every three seconds about your team.
That said, it does make football more interesting and exciting, and helps you know more about players you'd never know anything about. Like Homer Simpson once said Football is like Ice Cream. It's already awesome, but it's better when its covered with hot fudge And mounds of whipped cream And chopped nuts, And, ooh, those crumbled-up cookie things they mash up? Mmm crumbled-up cookie things
That's what Fantasy is.

Yep, being in a league with all your boys is dope..Being able to text my boys letting them know i offered a trade
I'm not a fan of fantasy anything. I played fantasy football twice before it became a national phenomenon. I only checked my team once after the draft and that was it. Still made the playoffs though one of those years though 
. I mean it's stressful enough worrying about my own team (Jets 
), without having to worry about how some other player is doing on a squad I don't even care about like that.
But yeah it's annoying to have to check who you're starting, what team they're playing against, how they do against that team, how do they play on a certain day of the week, are they good on the road, yadda yadda yadda.
Excuse me for using such an ignorant gif
What I really don't like are persons who think that because they play fantasy sports, their suddenly an expert in that sport. "Ohhh that dude is nice man. He gets me fantasy points every week." I just look at them like
, there's more to the game than that.

Put it this way
Watching 2 random last place teams you don't care about playing a meaningless game =
VS watching 2 random last place teams you don't give 2 shyts about but your fantasy RB puts up 200 total yards and 3 TD with 2-3 thousands dollars on the line =

Laughing at you n*ggaz like “ha ha ha”
I played it for one season & it can be pretty addictive, but I stopped b/c the prospect of wanting rival players on rival teams to win bothered me. Cheering for Saints & Panthers players? 
I loved football wayyy before fantasy football began. But Fantasy football is that shyt
Makes it even more run then it already is.
Stop being a hipster.
