Just to add to that whole baseball is regional...

I consider myself a voracious NFL fan, and I can name a good many starters and reserves on every team in the league. I watch every single game available in my area each Sunday. I always watch Monday Night Football. I play in two fantasy football leagues on NFL.com and ESPN.com and I closely monitor all of the star players and worthwhile bench players. That is what I consider to be an avid NFL fan.

Fantasy sports is the biggest waste of time I can think of. It doesn't make you a voracious NFL fan. It only makes you a stat junkie who tries to forecast who will score, throw or catch the most touchdowns. Who gets to kick the most field goals. What defense might play well that day. It has nothing to do with winning or losing an actual game. Your player might have a great game statistically, but their team can still lose the game. You can be a fan of one team and have a fantasy player on one team competing against each other. Which do you want to do well? You don't have to know a bunch of silly stats to be a big fan. I know a few people that know little about football and do well in fantasy leagues. Fantasy football has become one of the biggest wastes of man work hours. Why do you think companies are having domains such as these blocked?
