Okay, I'm in just another year of fantasy sports, and I'm beginning to wonder if anyone else in here is a part of fantasy sports. I'm currently in first place in my NBA fanstasy league, and I'm making the playoffs in my NFL league (which isn't nearly as good), and I'm wondering if anyone else is in fantasy sports, and how you all are doing.

The one i used to play is a tabloid paper game. You pick your players with the "budget" you are allowed, and then throughout the real season you get points for if the play well/score goals/set up goal etc. Person with most points for their fantasy team wins. I used to try, but was always several hundred points behind the top 20 so gave up.

We do the same, but as a competition between us and the rest of his family....much better than actually entering.

I like to play the Fantasy Football. It's fun to rib your coworkers when you lose, and even take some ribbing when you lose. I've been on a downward slide lately, but I'm still #2, despite losing Priest Holmes, Tom Brady and a RB (I forgot who it was.)
I'm not good at it, but it makes watching the games a little more interesting.
Oh...and since my wife is from Indianapolis, I get to be a Colts fan without being called "bandwagon"....though I'll always be a Dolphins fan.

We once made a fantasy league of our own, with some friends and family. We would calculate the scores ourselves, we even made a magazine about it, which was pretty cool.

I was going to suggest monkey tennis or inner city sumo.

I used to play fantasy football, but I got too lazy to ever check up on my team, so I stopped.
