Fantasy sports
Anyone play em? Anyone interested in playing, maybe starting a league? I'm more of a fantasy football guy myself... But baseball season is coming up and I'm a little curious to try it out.

Re: Fantasy sports
I play fantasy Survivor, and that's about it. And my picks of David, Woo, and Sarah are not working out very well.

Re: Fantasy sports
The extent of my baseball knowledge comes from the movie Moneyball, so I'll pass. There was a league on RM, I think.Turnip Head wrote:It sounds like you would be awful at fantasy baseball. So do you wanna play?

Re: Fantasy sports
TH i would be very interested in playing fantasy football but only if it's ESPN fantasy. I'm not a baseball fan, sorry, or i would play that too.Turnip Head wrote:Anyone play em?

Re: Fantasy sports
I've never played ESPN's fantasy football. I like Yahoo's iPhone app, and I hate NFL.com's. is ESPN better than both of those?
Alright, I'll ask again come football season. Tbh that's what I'm more interested in playing as well

Re: Fantasy sports
I believe SVS and Kate are baseball fans so they might be good ones to talk to about it. I only follow hockey so I'm no help
though it sounds fun. how much do you need to know to play

Re: Fantasy sports
I've heard that fantasy baseball is way more time intensive than fantasy football and also requires more knowledge of the sport.
Fantasy football is way more casual and pretty easy to understand. You basically only have to set your lineup once a week. Whereas in baseball I assume you might have to swap players in and out every day, based on whether they have a game that day.
If you're an interested newbie, I definitely recommend trying football first!
Unfortunately, it feels like it's forever away still.

Re: Fantasy sports
I'm a pretty big baseball nut myself, and a Reds follower.
I'd join a league if one was started.

Re: Fantasy sports
I'm way too lazy to setup a baseball league especially since their only seems to be lukewarm interest. But I'm in the same boat as you, if someone else wants to do the legwork I would join 
I don't mind trying to organize a football league when the time comes though.

Re: Fantasy sports
I'll try setting one up tomorrow then. I'll keep it fairly straight-forward as far as the settings go.

Re: Fantasy sports
Okay, for anyone who wishes to join for some fantasy baseball, here is a link. We need at least 4 teams to get things started. If you have any requests for the settings, go ahead and post here or in the league message board. It will be rotisserie style scoring, but everything else is open for change.
