Haha, I thought I was a fantasy loser. You guys really sit there flipping back and forth between games on the internet to see how your players are doing?

Some people dont live in the city that their favorite team is from and the Internet is the only way to keep up with their team.
I just use Yahoo........ it seems to update quickly (usually stuff that happens on MLB.tv has already been shown on Yahoo's live boxscores) and I'm used to seeing that format for the past 3 seasons. I wish they'd show holds though. And I wish they'd show holds on BigLeaguers.com's player stats like they used to. Looking at when the holds came in a player's game log was very helpful.

Yes doctor, I am sick. Sick of those who are spineless. Sick of those who feel self-entitled. Sick of those who are hypocrites. Yes doctor, an army is forming. Yes doctor, there will be a war. Yes doctor, there will be blood.....

What is the fascination with watching live games?
My dad loves to tape (for TV and car) just about every Giants game. Then he watches (or listens to) them a few days later. I guess it is a genetic flaw .
I like finding about things within seconds of their true occurrence. It is like a craving.

depends upon how you use it ...
I use it to quickly check box scores.
Its more convienant and quicker than scolling though the different pages.
Personally I don't sit there and watch a whole game with it, but I could easily understand a fan doing it. Not that much different than grandpa listening on his transistor radio if you ask me.

I can sorta see where you're coming from. I like reviewing the scores later in the evening and staying somewhat up to date with baseball.
However, I absolutely refuse to use StatTracker on Yahoo because I like to have something to look forward to in the morning (it's like everyday is Christmas and I can't wait to see what I got). Besides if it looks like I'm not having a good night then I don't want to know about it until the next morning.
