1. You root against your favorite team to cheer for your fantasy players
2. You have a dream regarding your fantasy basketball team

4. You have a backup computer for your draft night
5. You call anything worse than a top 3 finish in a league a "rebuilding year" and you normally blamed it on one of your injured players.
6. At 14:30 is your most exciting time to see whether you won the waiver
7. You don't need a free Yahoo Stat Tracker, you manually log the performance of your players each night in your head

14. You blame yourself for not picking FA player who was available and happen to have a breakout game
15. The first thing you do after you woke up is to check fantasy news in your bed
