Fantasy Football is dumb

If you had been able to attend Stanford like you wanted to, you would have had more interesting friends. Instead, you are stuck in your hometown, marooned in social circles with your dullard high school buddies who depend on something as intellectually fruitless as fantasy football to maintain relationships with one another.

 

Fantasy football is a means of observing a game with points -- non-real commodities -- and then assigning non-real values to those commodities. In so doing, fantasy football sits two full degrees of separation from reality or actual value. Whichever of your friends won your fantasy football league is a petty tyrant of his or her own daydream, and nothing more. That is pathetic. That person is pathetic.
