I quit fantasy football 2 years ago.

Great stuff. Next question. Has your interest in fantasy baseball affected your interest in your favorite team? That is, are you less interested in your favorite team now because you have a stake in different players?

If the Mets (insert your favorite team here) are having an exciting/competitive/good season, then I will most definitely follow them a little closer than my fantasy team. However, if they are having a lousy season, I am not going to waste my time watching 80-120 games for a team who has no hopes of going anywhere. If the Mets are out of contention and my fantasy teams are in contention, I will follow them a little closer down the stretch.

No. The A's are far more interesting. Especially this year where they are sort of/nearly contending, are "allegedly" going to be moved, and have two dynamite hitting prospects about to debut.

Tigers say they aren't contending.

When I first started out, I paid a little more attention to the fantasy team than I did with the Dodgers. As I had taken on more leagues and as time wore on, I was more interested in the Dodgers playing well than my fantasy teams prospering.

How many years have you played?

8 years. 9, if you included the first time I didn't take fantasy baseball so seriously (2001), which I don't count at all, seeing how I just set and forgot it after April.

Pretty kool survey!

Thanks guys! I truthfully appreciate your help with this research. I am nearly done with data collection, I need about 15 or so more respondents. Once I am done with that, I will post a link here with the results. Once I have completed the paper, which will take about 3 or 4 months, I will post that here as well.

Best of luck!

too long. I started taking the survey, but lost interest about half way through. What can I say, society has failed me.
