There are three things that make up the fun aspect of being an NFL fan.
There’s the football games, obviously (the most important part, since without the football games, then football season wouldn’t really… um… exist).
Then there’s fantasy football. This keeps you interested in other players that don’t play for your favorite team and thus, keeps you caught up on all the happenings around the league and not just in your city. Plus it adds the thrill of competition. There’s just something about obliterating someone else to smithereens that is good and healthy for the soul.
