What has happened to America, two of the most awaited movie releases this summer were based on comic books, Toby McGuire was a superhero and sports fans nationwide have resorted to fantasy. Why? Fantasy is reserved for teenage boys that are "husky" and get picked last in PE for kickball, or grown men who will never be married and look like they should be having a conversation with Chris Hansen in a suburban Ohio kitchen on To Catch A Predator. Fantasy sports are just slightly above War Craft, Dungeons & Dragons and other Nerd Fantasy Games. With a name like fantasy football do participants receive bonus points when members of their team cast spells on other players or grow magical beards? When you sign up do you receive a magical wand in the mail (licensed by the NFL of course). Why do I constantly see commercials about fantasy sports on Television, what is going on? Is J K Rowling to blame? Did she lay the foundation to the perversion of the American jock by exposing the world to fantasy "but it is a cute book and it reads so fast." NERDS! Don't participate in fantasy sports or you will find yourself with a fantasy girlfriend raising your fantasy gigipet. Give me beer and Truck commercials on ESPN not fantasy be careful how you chose your commissioner commercials. Question does the fantasy commissioner receive a complementary "King of the nerds" t-shirt?
