Default Women Against Fantasy Sports

Women Against Fantasy Sports - Home

Pretty funny website. Here's a typical post on there

So basically I love sports and fantasy sports. My wife knew this when we got married, but after a year of marriage she told me she was leaving me becuase of it. I told her I would limit to football only and drop out of fantasy baseball, golf, basketball, hockey, NASCAR, tennis and Olympic Badminton. She said it was too late and she was already fucking some other guy who hates fantasy sports.

Why all the hate? Fantasy sports are a lot of fun and help us cope with the mundaneness of coming home to nagging and increasingly less attractive ladies like yourselves day after day. Seems to me fantasy sports should be a good thing in your eyes.


PS: Now that I am single any ladies want to go out? A little about me, I also love video games and watching sports on TV, please never talk to me while I am doing either.

Too popular, the amount of coverage is silly, the amount of talk that it gets throughout the year grates on me. It's just gotten far too serious. I enjoy doing a fantasy football league or two with friends, but some people just take it to another level.

Fantasy sports themselves aren't annoying, but the fucking douchebags who (1) tell you about their fantasy team as if you care (2) go to a bar just to root for their fantasy players and (3) brag about any fantasy victory have begun to make me hate fantasy sports.

I still play, though.

And getting divorced over your devotion to fantasy sports makes you a grade A shithead.
