...and you have to politely sit there and nod while they boast and talk and update nonstop about their "team" and who they "drafted"?
Extra points if its nonstop for 3 hours during the Giants game.
I DONT CARE!!!!!
if this guy met someone else that was a big FF player, it might be of interest. Try politely explaining to him that FF is of no interest to you, at all.
If that doesn't work, start bringing up a nasty topic like toenail fungus every 5 minutes. Just keep bringing the same topic up again and again. Good luck.

Seems like everyone is. Other than not wanting to commit enough for it the reason I don't play is that I wouldn't want to draft players on rival teams even if they were BPA in the FF draft. I don't want to handicap myself like that.
and got them into it. They enjoyed it so much they started a Fantasy Baseball League and now they want to start a Fantasy Hockey League. I think I created a monster, they can't get enough. Its nice though when we get together and we are all in the conversation but it leaves the ladies out for the most part.
IMO there is nothing more pointless than rambling on about your FF team. It is completely meaningless.
The funny part when I listen to people talk about this is that everyone just rambles about their own team and doesn't listen to anyone else, they just wait for their turn to run their yap about tgeir own dumb team. Why? Because nobody cares about somebody else's team.
Incidentally, I feel the same way when people talk about video games.
Tracking “my team” and my opponents actually makes be a better informed fan
I can say that FF makes the games more interesting to watch. Otherwise, the game has become massively over officiated and the broadcasts are a brutal mess of cross promotion.
The infield and broadcast product of the NFL is more and more unwatchable. The game lacks flow because of all the interruptions and official decidedl outcomes
FF has made it fun for Me.... and I am connected more thru my FF team than I ever thought possible
I used to look down on the FF guys..... still need to remind them that it is NOT actually football.... but it’s fun !

Hey watch it about video games 😂
Because I find no reason to be interested in something does not Â
mean I think its dumb or pointless for someone else to have an interest. Quite frankly I find it ignorant to take this kind of view on anything. The thing that makes other people interesting is that they are different and can appreciate something that fails to interest me. Life would be really boring if we all held the exact same views and opinions on everything.
as toe nail fungus or just telling your friends something they like is stupid, but did you ever think of just subtley changing the subject? People do that all the time in conversations with other people. It doesn't require being rude or dismissive, or finding a new set of friends.
If you really dislike fantasy football and your friends can't carry on a conversation about anything else, you should probably find a different set of friends.

The same exact thing can be said about literally every single topic. While you’re rambling on about how your wife pissed you off or what a pain in the ass your kids are to your coworkers, you think they give a shit? They don’t and odds are they’re not hearing a word you said. Telling fairy tales about the deer you got or the fish you hooked or how awesome of a round of golf you had? Again, nobody cares and just like you said about fantasy football, they are only waiting to tell you their own far fetched stories. They don’t care about yours.
If that doesn't work, start bringing up a nasty topic like toenail fungus every 5 minutes. Just keep bringing the same topic up again and again. Good luck.

But boy is it tempting
