Fantasy Football needs a new name (1 Viewer)

I could just lie and say work, or painting something, or clean the garage............

Thing is, I want to be able to say what I am doing without feeling like a total :nerd: :nerd: :nerd: :nerd: :nerd: about it
Fantasy football is basically D&D for people who like sports. You ARE a :nerd: :nerd: :nerd: :nerd: :nerd: . Deal with it. Embrace it. You'll be happier.

What's wrong with D&D? :angry:
Nothing. It's also :nerd: though. But again...nothing wrong with that. Just embrace it.

 
Dungeons & Dragons = Touchdowns & Titles

"Gotta run, I've got a busy weekend of scouting for Touchdowns & Titles" :slidesondesignershades:

 
I don't know what the solution is, and whatever we could agree on here would take YEARS to grab hold and take over... but I completely agree.

I think even Rotisserie Football would be better even if no one scores that way.

Simulated Football?

Season Long Football Gambling Contest.

Even PIck 'em has a better name for a picks league.

Rotisserie was the original name for fantasy baseball, much better even if it is a French word.

 
"Hey, ya wanna go grab a beer tonight?" .........."Nah man, I have a fantasy football draft"..................
this happened to me yesterday. texted a buddy to go disc golfing and he replied, 'i have a fantasy draft tonight'.

what a doush. :rolleyes:

It isn't about embracing it. I already do. I just want it to SOUND less embarrassing. There has to be a way.

Lot of quitters in here just accepting it.

 
Just tell the chicks half of how much you can win and they'll be telling you to join more leagues.

Or just call it Manball for all I care.

... and people do score it that way. In fact it's easily the most fair way to score.

Honestly, you're just an attention whore.

Sounds delicious.

 
Well, I can see nobody is skilled enough in the art of creating a new name for this.

Nerd Ball it is for me until someone beats it.

 
Sooo lemme see if I've got this straight....."disc golf" is less #####-y than "fantasy football"?

I think maybe there were a few chads hanging when they did the recount on that one.

 
I think disc golf is less nerdy among the non disc golfers than fantasy football is among the non FFers.

It's still pretty nerdy though.

 
It's even more embarrassing to say "well, there's this guy I know from this fantasy football message board..."
Love it. People ask where I head about something and I say from a fantasy football message board. They immediately stop listening.
Lol. Don't ever say that. Make something up.
I have and always will refer to this place as the nerd board. But the advice I get here is still gospel.
