Fantasy Baseball and Basketball

I thought I would post my opinion that fantasy basketball/baseball are about 100x better than fantasy football. There is too much available information in fantasy football and too much in the way of random scoring for it be a good game. Worse yet, there is really only one basic way to play that involves little to no strategy on anything other than lineups and rosters.

Fantasy Baseball, for example, has the huge advantage of differing league and scoring formats that the top 100 list that everyone publishes is more flexible. Further, there are different strategies for what stat to go for and whether you should punt categories, etc. This makes it more like a game and more exciting. Unlike football, the game does not end when you draft/pick up guys off of waivers. In Head-to-Head leagues, you are also concerning yourself with what the other guy is good at and adjusting accordingly.

Fantasy Basketball is the same way in that it involves determining opponent strengths and adjusting accordingly. This makes the game fun throughout the season because you feel like you are having more of an impact on the outcome.

So, in conclusion, I would highly recommend people giving fantasy basketball and baseball a whack because they are a lot more fun than football.
