Why does anyone play fantasy football? This is not a trick question, although it’s also not particularly difficult to answer. Perhaps they do it for money, or they enjoy football, or they want a shared activity to help stay in touch with friends or family. Whatever the reason, the fun is in picking your guys and managing your little team and hoping you win more often than you lose. Some people have a healthier relationship to this endeavor than others. Still, if none of it appeals to you, then you can always not do it.
I am generally not interested in sports things, so I had no idea what fantasy football is… I thought about Gandalf kicking uruk heads into fire pits, hobbits running circles around Ents and so on.
But nooooooo.
I’m very not into sports but I had a lot of fun playing fantasy basketball with some coworkers for a couple of years. Fantasy football SUCKS, though
It’s D&D for sports nerds
If you do find a fantasy football league that involves Gandalf kicking uruk heads, please invite me to join, because that sounds very fun.

I had never heard of this, but based on the wiki description I think you’re probably right. Thanks for sharing
The PC versions are quite fun as well, if tabletop play is not your thing.
The computer versions are quite fun, although like the tabletop version they can be exploited. Unsure about the latest version though.
