fantasy football killed the NFL for me in a different way: I hate fantasy football bc of the way people constantly evaluate the game on individual levels rather than it being a tribal team thing, the way it used to be. there was way more pride when all you cared intensely about your one group of guys. now I'm loathe to steer watercooler convos to the NFL because it inevitably ends up being an enumeration of single player statistics and people's places in their fantasy league. like i give a frick. it's all about them SOINTS

Fantasy is definitely the best and the worst thing to happen to the NFL.

It keeps me watching the RedZone channel as much as possible when otherwise I wouldn't really care what was going on in the 2nd quarter of the Browns/Bengals game which is good.

However, at the same time it leads to episodes like yesterday I am absolutely raging at my TV when McFadden gets a TD overturned, then gets stopped at the 1 the following drive, then Demaryius gets a TD overturned within a 10 minute span.
