When to stop playing fantasy

Postby mrblitz » Wed Jul 19, 2006 6:46 pm

Is there such thing as being too old to play fantasy? At what age do yo just stop? I can tell you now, for me till I'm dead.

I don't want to be a complete jerk, but this sounds like a wife question. If you enjoy what you are doing there is no age of submission. You continue on your path until YOU are bored or no longer interested. Fantasy football is nothing more than an extension of that dream you had as a young kid. Dreams of Larry Csonka, Eric Dickerson, and LT2. Don't let anyone take those away. YOU WILL NEVER BE TOO OLD!!!!!!

I'll show my age here, by posting my first ever FF lineup (I dug this out of an old briefcase, it was in a spiral binder):

QB - Dan Fouts
RB - Gerald Riggs
RB - Freeman McNeil
WR - Wes Chandler
WR - Tony Hill
TE - Jimmie Giles
K - Ray Wersching
D - Miami Dolphins

The year was 1985. I'll still be playing in 20 years, as long as computers don't pass me by.
