Someone Explain Fantasy Football.

I've never been a part of it and want to get a league etc. going for work.

Please remember I am a completely dense idiot. Layman's (sp?) terms....

You are the owner of a team. You draft your team, position by position (K, RB, WR, QB, TE, Defense) from a pool of ALL NFL players. You then make your starting lineup each week (usually a QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, one TE, one K, one team defense) and accumulate points according to a point system. A touchdown pass for a QB will be X points, every 20 yards passing will be X points, every fumble will be negative X points, every catch will be X points, every kick will be X points, etc.

I hate it. The coworker who I wrote the "dear coworker" letter to last week is really into fantasy football. And every Monday morning he goes on and on and on about how he did. I don't even fake interest. I just make minimal eye contact and hope he goes away.

He'll ask me if I watched a particular game and when I say "yes" he'll still give me a play by play of the whole game. I want to kill him.

It's very fun and great for the sports marketing industry. Still, people that talk about it to people that don't care should die, along with people that tell me about their pets and children and ask me what I did this weekend.

There's a difference between being nice during small talk and someone giving you a play by play of a hockey game you were at.

If you can't actually hit someone, what's the point of football?
