I'm sure part of it is the constant tweeting to him:
"What do you think of my draft dude?" "Hey bro, how many yards you think you'll put up?" "JMAC, how many TDs you got this year my man!" |

Have to agree with Fish and Hootie. It's not hard to separate the two.
I'd draft Peyton ****ing Manning if I thought it would help me win a league. I'd also be rooting for a career-ending injury anytime he plays the Chiefs. I'm a football fan, though. I have no problem separating fantasy from the actual sport. That's a big part of the reason I'd say a guy like Russell Wilson is on the same level as Andrew Luck. Gaudy stats are for n00bs. |

I had a friend last year that texted me sometime around week 4, 5, 6 (I'm guessing it was around the time we slaughtered them) saying Gronk sucked because he wasn't putting up enough fantasy points.
What a ****ing dumbass. I considered ending our friendship on the spot. |

READ - "I'm going to have 800 yards and 5 TD's in this offense, but that doesn't mean I suck." /JMac, probably
I also have given up on fantasy football. Used to be I would have literally 8-10 teams going on every game day, and I would be glued to the computer/phone checking updates. Way too much work, way too stressful. Now I just sit back and enjoy the games without freaking out over who scored what and when. It's kind of nice. |

I play in two fantasy football leagues
One is a bar league 10 bucks One is a bigger money league 150 entry plus fees for transactions. I set their lineups and let them play I treat both leagues the same and never worry about either. Chiefs games are more important. Some of you ****ers confuse fantasy with real ****ing life. |

Anyone who cares more about their fantasy team or is unable to separate the two is a moron...most people I know care MUCH MUCH more about their real teams....and the fantasy teams are just a way to have some fun during the other games

People also need to realize that Fantasy football is the MAIN reason NFL fans have become more knowledgable about the league as a whole and not just blind homers who only know about their own team. It impacts everything from fans watching preseason games to more and more people watching the draft. And it's pretty ****ing stupid for a guy who makes money playing a game to scold me for trying to make money playing a game...

You can't leave a team and call it a business then complain when people are hustling your ass for fantasy football money.

I think the truth hurts for Maclin. He is a piece of meat on the field and no one will care if he gets brain damaged or injured. Fans aren't going do crap for him if he is injured, they will just cheer for the next fast guy that wears the same laundry as him.

Marlin is right about one thing in all of this.....it is about what the team does on the field.
Marlin was 6 years old the last time a Chiefs fan saw a win in a post season football game. He is right, it is about production on the field. My wife's 97 year old grandmother had exactly the same number of touchdown receptions in 2014 as any professional wide receiver playing in Kansas City. As far as I am concerned marlin can shut his ****ing mouth until he gets into the endzone in a Chiefs helmet during a regular season game. Hate fantasy football all you want but there has been a decade of football for Chiefs fans where it was the only reason to watch the steaming shit we paid to see on the field. Maybe he wasn't watching football when we were suffering through Todd Collins and Tyler thigpin. There are 6-8 games a week no one outside of their maerkers would watch without a rooting FFB interest. As far as comments about his salary, he can eat a bag of dick whistles on that, because as fans we do watch the salary cap. We are invested in the tea,s interest longer than MOST of the players, including this one who has been a chief for 5 minutes. You get the big bucks, fans expect you to back it up on the field. Not a single time have I ever rooted against the Chiefs for FFB reasons, but for the decade we saw them suck, and they were losing anyway, it didn't hurt anything if the shit performing defense gave up another late TD to a RB who happens to be on my team. |
