This week I’d like to vent my frustration at some of the worst people in the history of the universe. I’m talking about those people that sign up for a fantasy league and then completely no show. I’m not talking about those of you that show up for the draft, start the season giving your all, and then fizzle out when you realize that your team doesn’t have a chance this year. That happens, I can live with it.

I’m talking about people that join a league knowing that it drafts at a specific day and time and then just never show up at all. Not to the draft, not to manage their team, nothing. I don’t care if you don’t want to play fantasy sports. In fact, if you’re not a complete fantasy junky, you probably are a more productive person when it comes to spending your free time.

If that’s the case for you, SUPER, just don’t sign up for a league then. I’ve tried doing auction leagues instead of traditional drafts hoping that would scare the “no shows” off, NOPE. I even tried money leagues, and to my surprise, while there are less “no shows” there are still some. Why would you pay $25 to not draft and play a fantasy baseball or football team?

The worst thing in the world is coming down to the last week of the season and the team you’re competing against for the last playoff spot gets to go against the “abandoned team” that has five guys on the DL in their starting line up.

JUST STOP SIGNING UP!!!!!!

Alright, that does it for this week’s Armchair Quarterback. Let me know what you thought of the Mock Draft 2.0 in the comments, especially if you think I got your favorite team all wrong.

Thanks for reading.
