How many leagues are you in?

I usually do two, and may do a third, but I feel like there'd be a conflict on rooting for and against players in an extra league.

I generally run one at work, one with my friends, and a few general ones on yahoo.

But with all the games total (pick em, knock out, fantasy, ect) I'm usually up to 8/10 games.

I did go ahead and signed up for another one, this particular one should be different.

Anywhere between 2-8 usually. I haven't done any yet. Sometimes I am so excited and love doing drafts that I keep wanting to do one more.

Is it tough to pull for different players? Not really. I generally try to pick sleepers and make my own rankings and predictions based on player movements, etc, so many of my teams are similar, with minor tweaks. But of course the top players (esp QBs and RBs) are a crapshoot as to who you will get so those are usually fairly different, though I always wait a long time to get a qb, so those are often pretty close to the same.

My rbs usually determine my outcome, especially depending on injuries. I haven't started any yet this year. I like to wait until preseason is either over or nearly over.

I've never played fantasy football. I've wanted to for over a decade but for whatever reason, year after year I cuss it off until its too late. at 30 years old I'm considering not playing ever. epic streaks shouldn't be taken lightly I'm in rare company here.

ps last year I won my mlb league. and the last two years running I was 1st loser in my nba league (got screwed by injuries and resting players in our finals)

I don't know if it was because I was using an app on a tablet, but that draft was so much different than ESPN it seemed tough to rearrange your rankings during the draft, based on how things were going. But it's the first one I've done on yahoo in years. So when I lost connection, it was tough. Just curious, have you ever done one on ESPN?

I'm in two but one of them I joined on accident (tried a mock draft and it just put me in a random league). I generally only pay attention to one and it is great: everyone plays, there's trash talk, draft party (now) ect. The whole 9 yards.
