Fantasy Versus Reality

Is it fantasy or is it reality? That is the question certain people need to start asking themselves when they embark on the journey of fantasy sports.

Recently in my Fantasy Football League I witnessed a most unpleasant experience. Two of the players started talking smack in the "smack room". One of the players was really giving the other one a hard time. He was telling him that his team sucked and that his drafting skills sucked etc...

Then things got ugly. The other player looked up the name of the guy that was smack talking him and got personal. He did a search for this individuals' name on Google and discovered that the persons' dad had died and also found out what religion the other person was.

He then went on to make very ruthless and cowardly remarks about this boy's dead dad, sexual comments about his widowed mother and then making racist comments about the boys' religion.

I was truly disgusted. I would suggest to anyone that takes fantasy football too seriously that they should be spending Sunday's at the psychiatrist instead of on the computer in fantasy land.
