I think you underestimate how short-lived your wife's interest in fantasy football will be.

Nooooooo!!!!1!!1!

I'm really hoping she's going to get into it. She had a live draft. She had a cheat sheet she made going into it. I actually just got her to join our anandtech pick em group for foootball too. She seems like she's into it right now.

That's a pretty good start, actually. Does she like football? At all? If not, I think you've bought yourself 4-5 weeks, well done. If she does you may have pulled one of the greatest schemes known to man.

She doesn't hate football. She is a huge Cowboys fan because of me. She actually said in our wedding vows that she would be the #2 biggest cowboys fan behind me for as long as we are married. I thought that was pretty cool. She watches a lot of games with me, but often loses interest a quarter or so in. I'm hoping caring about the individual players and outcomes will keep her more interested.

My wife came in 2nd last year in a regular league.

Only reason she didn't win was she didn't change QB's.

Congrats on getting her to try it with you.

Mine will "watch" the game with me, which means she sits there and reads a book or plays with her ipod :p

I picked up Sunday Ticket this year so I have a reason to watch TV, since that's why my wife does in the evening. She's also on record stating she's all for watching football if that means I spend time with her.

Sir, I think I've found how to make relationships work.
