Default "The League"

I've been watching this show (The League) about a bunch of guys in a fantasy football league and I hesitate to say it's one of the funniest shows I've ever watched, but it just may be.

I think it's on FX but I had someone lend me season 1 and it blew me away. Every single fantasy sports geek should be watching this show as it is a very accurate portrayal of just how stupid all of us can be with this stuff.

My favorite part is the way they decide draft order at the start of each football season. Definitely worth checking out and you'll all be throwing so much rep at me when you do, I'll have to ask dobber for a 2nd account to hold it all!!

Cheers

I didn't want to spoil it for people who hadn't seen it but it made me want to do that for the league I'm starting this year. And I upped the first year fee by 10 bucks each so we can have a sweet ass trophy too!!

Definitely my favourite show. The seasons only get better too. I am sure each league has someone who has a character from the show too

Every league definitely has an Andre. If you don't have someone who can be the butt of every joke and be tormented mercilessly then what's the point of playing fantasy sports?

I thought I had started a thread on this a while back. Unfortunately I didn't get too many responses

We were talking about this again tonight and I went to check it out. It looks like it got picked up again for Season 3, which will begin airing in the Fall. I can't wait to see what they do for this year's draft order.

For those of you who haven't seen this show yet, there couldn't be a better show for the fantasy junkie. Check it out and keep it popular so we can keep the seasons rolling.

Anyone who wants to check it out, they have every episode at Sidereel. Think Always Sunny in Philadelphia meets Traffic Light meets fantasy sports obsession. One of my favorite shows.

I've always heard about this show by watching Jon Lajoie (Taco McArthur) on Youtube, just never took the time to sit down and watch a full episode, only segments (like the explaining of "The Game").

That said, I am definitely putting this on my to do list.
