I played once in the mid 90's, and I didn't really see the appeal and haven't played since. It is funny how far it has come in the years since then. You can't watch ESPN for 5 minutes without a Fantasy Football mention, and they even have specials on it. And there's even a comedy show (The League) that revolves around a Fantasy Football league.
As for being too old. If this guy isn't too old for Fantasy Football...
then I don't know who is.

When I started we had maybe 2 magazines out there and we had to check the newspapers for all the scores
We had to make the scoring system up and do everything by hand

i hate being the 10th pick in a 10 team league :x
no live draft? live drafts are the best. only thing is it gets confusing having to pay attention without your computer keeping track of everything. after a few pops things get a little dicey.
by the way--i think my team blows. we switched to ppr this year and i forgot until about the 3rd round. i was working off the regular lists

My husband is commish for his FFL. Had their draft last night...I think it's the 14th year. I help him prep for it (he always waits too long to get a draft kit and I end up printing all the stickers) and I'm the 'board girl'...always a good time! The rest of the season he drives me nuts though.
No time to be void or save up on life...you've got to spend it all.

It was 2 AM and the last round and was the first name I could think of. And yeah and I am dumb for wasting an earlier pick on a kicker, especially a rookie, but it was getting late and I wasn't thinking straight. And earlier I mean like 13th round.
32 shows and counting...
