I don't begrudge anyone who enjoys playing fantasy sports. I've just never had the desire to participate for two reasons:

It seems that it would cause one to not follow any particular team, but to follow players from several teams.

Most of the folks that I know who play are those who never played a sport.

So, what's the big deal?
I've been in a league with some old friends for the past five years. We never get too serious and it's a great way to keep in contact with friends in different areas. Last year my team was comprised solely of Cincinnati Bengals and former BYU players. My teams are regularly the worst in the league, but best in trash talk.
