Is Fantasy Too Much?

Fantasy football is a huge game played by millions worldwide every year. There are a lot of different sites and ways of playing. Some of tyne more popular sites in the US are NFL.com and ESPN.com. Most sites are full season sites where you draft a team and play with that same team all season. In those leagues you are allowed to trade players and pick up players from the free agents list. There are also some single-day or single-week leagues where you can pay a few dollars to enter a game and after you pay you draft a team from a list of players and have a chance to win some money.
The prospect of winning money leads some fantasy owners to go on rants on social media sites directed at the players themselves. Some players don't care about these rants because they understand that there are going to be people that like them and people that don't like them no matter what happens. But, on the other hand there are some players that hate the whole prospect of fantasy leagues because they're not real leagues and the players don't deserve the backlash they get for having a less-than-perfect game. I personally think that it adds to the fun of watching football. I have 3 different teams and for me it gets me more excited to watch the games that come on.
