He doesn't play F-Baseball, cuz he's not a huge Baseball fan. But he taught me how to play fantasy football, how to make trades, etc. And now, we do it together. It actually has helped me to learn how to watch and I'm starting to actually recognize plays.....Yikes!

Yes, my husband played for the first time last season and I did not like it!! The season is soooooo long! He's thinking about doing it again this season. It is a little time consuming but he does it as a hobby. I don't mind him playing I mind how long the season is. lol

My Husband has always been a Fantasy Football addict...but now that the season is over i think he is looking for something to fill the void (either that or he's just trying to aggrevate me:) and Fantasy Baseball seems to be the answer. I am just trying to see what i have in store for me..Just how much time is this going to take? I thought the Football was bad!

Fantasy Baseball is a hobby for my husband. It's not time consuming for him. He has that one day of picking his team but other than that, he checks on it the same time he checks his emails. His friends and relatives are on it with him.

My husband doesn't do any of the fantasy sports, although he is an avid sports watcher. I do have a good friend who calls herself a fantasy baseball widow. Once it starts each year, he is obsessed!
I think some men can make it a simple hobby, but with a season as long as baseball is, they have to be really careful not to let it take over real life.

My husband is super into his Fantasy Baseball. Has played against his 2 best friends for lotsa years, over 20 years now. Of course that means they started way before the internet made the fantasy leagues so convenient. Used to spend hours pouring over papers and mags and writing out charts, etc. Hugely streamlined now. They have their pow-wows to finalize drafting their teams (each has 3 teams with fun names) and they go to Arizona to watch actual spring training. I really can't relate in the slightest to Fantasy sports. But glad it's so enjoyable for them!
