Old Man Dynasty Daily 1/3/24: You Are Encouraged to Wallow in Your Own Crapulence
You feel bad and the world should know
I lost my redraft fantasy football title on Sunday and I’m still mad about it. My fingers still go the Yahoo! Fantasy Sports app, which I won’t use again until August, and I still see my No. 1 ranking team falling to the three-seed, to the guy who always wins and won again. I hate it.
Very slowly, I am starting to think about my dynasty baseball team, on which I’ll start working pretty soon after some fairly brisk postseason dealing, which I talked about yesterday. At first I was going to say that you shouldn’t complain too much about these things — they’re just fantasy sports titles, not personal failings, I say — but then I pull back. Of course it’s a personal failure, but the world is also at fault and should know about it, and you should really lean into being annoying about losing a fantasy title because what are you gonna do, actually win one? Please. We both know better.
