    Someone in my fantasy football group chat made a reference to the battle of Antietam today, between an 80’s Hulk Hogan gif and a Simpsons joke.

      Fantasy football is just D&D for jocks or sports geeks, and everyone is in denial of this fact.

        I’ve been a D&D geek since it was still Advanced D&D, so I’m well aware of the similarities.

        The fact that everyone is in denial of is that obsession with sports statistics is a socially acceptable Autistic Hyperfixation.

        …no? Fantasy Football has basis in the real world, with added game layers on top. D&D is entirely fictional.

          True. Wouldn’t it be cool if swords existed in real life though?
