I honestly don't see how this is any more stupid or any more of a waste of time than any other fantasy sports league. In fact, I think a fishing one is probably more interesting.

What's so bad about a cesspit of apathy and sloth?

Subby makes it sound like humanity isn't already in a cesspit of apathy and sloth.

subby: promote the ultimate downfall of humanity into a cesspit of apathy and sloth..

you say that as if it's a bad thing.

shiat. I'd join but I'm in the middle of my fantasy darts league.

Glass parking lot please

It's not a cesspool, it's fark.

A friend of mine's father competes in bass-fishing tournaments.

His son, not so much of a fisherman, but a damned good physicist.

But if I joined a fantasy fishing league, I wouldn't be able to hold as many TV Parties. So, i'll pass.

"Is it ignorance or apathy? I don't know, and I don't care."

-um, Jimmy Buffett, right?

Pool, cesspool.

At least The Hulkster's getting paid for promoting something bound to fail.

I mean, Ric Flair probably didn't get anything out of campaigning for Mike Huckabee.

When I play, should I crack open a fantasy beer?

Is this the signup thread for the "If I'm ever found playing fantasy fishing, please KILL ME!" club?

Lay Clespool?



(evil hotlink, bwah haha!)

Whatever. Call me when there's a fantasy fantasy league, where I can draft fantasy league players together and create a fantasy team of fantasy team players.

him promote the ultimate downfall of humanity into a cesspit of apathy and sloth

Wait, what? What the hell are they fishing for exactly?

cesspit of apathy and sloth. makes me chuckle. good on you, subby.

Sounds like this guy really wants to hook the Hulk. I doubt he will take the bait though.

I just got attuned to the Atlantic Ocean last night. Soon as the guild logs on we're going after Daggermouth. I hope he drops the Rod of Carp Slaying.

There is a Dilbert comic strip in which Dogbert (I believe) is mocking Dilbert for sitting in a chair reading a book to help him improve his virtual skills at playing a computerized game that simulates golf. It perfectly captured how far we have removed ourselves from actually living our lives in the real world.

And yet I cannot find that cartoon with Google searches. Did I dream it?

retarded Whatever. Call me when there's a fantasy fantasy league, where I can draft fantasy league players together and create a fantasy team of fantasy team players.

I WANT THAT!

Nakito: And yet I cannot find that cartoon with Google searches. Did I dream it?

Pardon me for quoting myself. But I just realized that by using my computer to search Google to find an electronic version of a cartoon depicting a man reading a book to teach him how better to play a computer simulation of a real game, I have added at least two more levels of abstraction.

I am going outside. I don't care if it's raining.

I'm pretty sure this is exactly what Al Gore had in mind when he invented Internets.

Nakito

You made me laugh. Now I have to go outside, and it's snowing here. With ice underneath.

No more stupid that any fantasy league, IMO.

smasho, came here to say that.

Can I recruit John the Fisherman?

Kudos, Nakito. I'm heading out for walk or something.

/In a minute or so...

"OK, brother! Here's whatyer gonna doooo! Take that there rod in yer hands and cast that thang way out there! Reel in that fish, brother! Y'know, that fish reminds me of my soon to be ex-wife! Hmmm I need to call Brooke and see if she wants the Hulkster to grab some Long John Silvers or Captain D's...That's good eatin' man! Damn....divorce sucks....Fish on!!!!!" (cue Primus)

I put on my robe and fishin' hat...

Or for these...

Oops...i meant this...

Ok, I quit...

/opens door, walks out
//gets hit in the ass by the door

He might not want to be associated with Hulk Hogan after what he did to the WTC...


/dammit, it's still real to me
//pic still cracks me up
///props to whoever made it
////and props to teh 'Shack

The Fantasy Farming league sounds more exciting.

This would be the only way I could catch a fish...

ha. nice find. twice the pills means they work twice as well, right?

Please, wont someone think of the fishies????

retarded: Whatever. Call me when there's a fantasy fantasy league, where I can draft fantasy league players together and create a fantasy team of fantasy team players.

That sounds amusing. I think I'll fantasize about Salma Hayek that idea.

I was wondering whether to walk to the library today or tomorrow. Now I have to walk there today. OK, I'll be looking for books, which are at least one level of abstraction removed from physical experiences, but hey, they're physical objects and walking is a real activity.

(Fantasy Farming League? Doesn't "Harvest Moon" sort of implement that?)

Apathy *and* Sloth?

I'm in!

Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day.
Teach a man to fish, and he'll sit in a boat drinking all day.

And with our first pick in the fist round of our inaugural draft, the the Crapslinging Cod Crushers select Mrs. Paul.

/Approves

"It will create awareness," Jacobs said. "More boats will be sold. That's not just a probability but a high probability."

Whoa slow down with the math there, Pascal McFermat! I haven't had to multiply boats by awareness since high school. ...Carry the 1, divide by pi, cosine the denominatrix...

brydude: Can I recruit John the Fisherman?

He might help you get a diamondback sturgeon...

Lisa1990: Sounds like this guy really wants to hook the Hulk. I doubt he will take the bait though.

You're a little late. Looks like he already did (new window)

smasho: He might help you get a diamondback sturgeon...

But what happens to your league standings if your boat captain dies heroically at the end of the season?

/Dad caught a hundred-pound sturgeon on twenty-pound test....

NakedApe: The Fantasy Farming league sounds more exciting.

isnt that called WoW?

Nakito! Come back! It's okay! We're real people! No, really!

/also, you owe me a keyboard

HOLY SHAIT!! Are these people so farking lazy that sitting in a boat and drinking beer is too much work so they need to do it virtually.
