I'm diggin' it too, but I don't think I want to take on an extra team right now. Maybe next year after I've learned the ins and outs.

It's kinda like crack.

And it's free!  ;)

actually i think i'm going to get stat tracker.  it's a good way to keep up with all the games on sunday plus watch how your players are doing (my god, I sound like a commercial).  but seriously...

Thanks for having me.

i can't decide if i like my (other) team or not.  i'm glad i've got chad on this team though.   8-)

AMD, we might could possibly work out a trade for Chad.  Some kind of package deal. Say, Plax and Barber for Chad and maybe Norwood...

It is crack and, as I said before, it will ruin your life in a happy sort-of way.  I have 4 teams - this one, another yahoo team I play in with some local friends, a large money keeper league where we all take it way too seriously and get in fights that would make 10 year-old girls blush, and a national challange that I've played in with a friend since 1993.

All told over the years I'm probably even as far as the money goes.  One year I cleared about $1k as my friend and I finished high in the national challange and nearly won a national playoff challange.  I honestly can say that it has changed the way I watch and enjoy football.  I'm ostensivly a Steelers fan, but my fantasy dudes take priority and my pulse barely moved when we won the Super Bowl 2 years ago.

Best fantasy team name ever - "With Another Man's Testicles".  Think about it.
I'm not saying it's easy...walking into sweet oblivion.

Sitting on the couch with a laptop on your lap scrolling nervously through eveyone's scores.  What do you mean like crack?  It is a blast though.

Let me take a crack at that name.  

Me: "Hey Bowl, who ya playing this week?"  
Bowl:  "Why, I'm playing With Another Man's Testicles."

Classic.

"With another man's testicles" is fucking genius.

I really hope it stays fun for me. I'd rather not be fighting people about it. Maybe I should stay away from the money leagues.

Going to the Titans/Colts game this weekend should be fun and interesting. I'm gonna be pulling for the Titans, but Addai is my starting RB. Also, my brother picked up Chris Brown this weekend, so that'll be fun for him.

Fantasy football is worse than crack, it probably causes more divorces than crack  :).
I live with a football widow, she friggin hates fantasy football.  She says " all you do is sit and watch that statracker all day, LOSER " .   Sometimes I've chosen statracker over sex. I think I have a problem. NOT.     GO BEARS

stat tracker only happens once a week!  oh wait, I'm marry so so does sex.   :-[

Jon T, i doubt i'll be dealing chad, i was excited to get him, but i'll look over your roster when I'm home.

Or, "I've never played with another man's testicles before, but it looks like I'm going to on Sunday."  Maybe this belongs on that Jim and Pat are in love thread.
