So this guy is out having some beers with his friend and starts complaining a little about his wife, "Man, I can't be out too late bro, my wife gets upset and wants to know where the hell I've been; everytime I come home late I drive up to the house real quietly, park the car real quietly, try to enter the house real stealthily like, go upstairs to the bedroom and try to sneak into bed, but man, she's ALWAYS awake, always like, "Where the hell have you been!!", it drives me crazy".
His friend just smiles and kind of shakes his head a little, and says, "Man, you're going about it all wrong, when I stay out late drinking I get home, slam the door as loud as I can, stomp up the stairs, make no effort at all to be quiet, jump into bed, slap her ass and say, "Hey baby, you think I could get some tonight?", it's amazing, she ALWAYS stays sound asleep."

What a weird question.
The rarity of it, clearly. Plain as day why the question would be asked. In 12 years I've played with exactly 1 woman in 1 league, and last year was the first time. Up until then I'd played for 11 full seasons in countless leagues with zero women. It's not like he asked if they were any good, or where they finished in the standings. Just asked if anybody had played with them, because they probably represent what, 1%? 5%? of the fantasy baseball playing population.
I think the answer to the question, though, is because women can't drive!!
A few years ago I used the Cafe to recruit an owner into my Yahoo Plus league and a woman from Cali joined up. She was pretty competent and scooped up almost all West Coast players. She changed her email and I lost track of her.
Mary, where are you??????
